“…Experimental studies have evaluated effects of varying S h (e.g., Masui et al, ; Santamarina & Ruppel, ), temperatures (Jia et al, ; Song et al, ), pore pressures ( u , Jiang, Zhu, et al, ), and effective stresses ( σ 3 ′, Lee, Francisca, et al, ; Miyazaki, Tenma, et al, ) to identify relevant parameters and initial conditions in the geotechnical analysis of GHBS. In particular with the perspective on sand production issues during natural gas production and potential slope failure of fine‐grained sediments, the effects of fines content (Hyodo et al, ; Jung et al, ; Kajiyama, Hyodo, et al, ; Lee, Santamarina, et al, ; Yun et al, ), lithology and consolidation history (Fujii et al, ; Ito et al, ; Santamarina et al, ; Suzuki et al, ; Yoneda et al, ), and thermo‐hydro‐chemo‐mechanical process coupling (Gupta et al, ; Klar et al, ; Sánchez et al, ; Uchida et al, ) have received attention.…”
