Zusammenfassung:	PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for constructing elastoplastic property correlations in multicomponent particulate systems. SOLUTION: The method includes a step of obtaining parameters from geophysical data of a sediment-hydrate system, where the parameters include shydand pc, and where shydis a hydrate saturation and pcis a confining pressure. The method further includes a step of determining a Young's modulus (E) of the sediment-hydrate system using the parameters and a correlation, where the correlation is as follows, and where α=pc/c and c is a scaling variable with dimensions of pressure. The method further includes a step of adjusting a field operation based on the Young's modulus of the sediment-hydrate system. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
