    Multi-physical field coupling model development and parameter analysis of natural gas hydrate considering mechanical damage

    By Z R. Guo, Y Qiu, X F. Wang

    Mechanical damage leads to the increase of effective stress of sediments, and pore closure hinders the discharge of methane gas. Ignoring the influence of mechanical damage leads to an excessive predi
