Mechanical Performance of Methane Hydrate–Coal Mixture

Understanding mechanical behaviors of a methane hydrate–coal mixture are important for its associated application in coal and gas outburst prevention. A triaxial compression apparatus for a specimen of the methane hydrate–coal mixture was developed to measure its strength and deformation properties....
