Gas hydrates are crystalline solids (clathrates) in which gas molecules are encaged within lattices
of hydrogen bonded water molecules. Hydrates are stable at low temperatures and high pressures;
and dissociation takes place at temperatures and pressures outside the stability zone. Modeling the
dissociation behavior of hydrates in porous soil media requires attention be paid to the geomechanics
of hydrate dissociation. This paper addresses the issue of coupling the hydrate
dissociation problem with the soil deformation problem and constructs the mathematical
framework. Thermally stimulated dissociation process under undrained conditions is considered
with conduction heat transfer.
