Stability Analysis of Methane Hydrate-Bearing Soils Considering Dissociation

It is well known that the methane hydrate dissociation process may lead to unstable behavior such as large ground deformations, uncontrollable gas production, etc. A linear instability analysis was performed in order to investigate which variables have a significant effect on the onset of the instab...
