To explore the possibility of providing additional reinforcement to bio-cemented sand
through fiber inclusions, a series of sand-fiber mixtures were prepared by mixing sand with …

Calcareous sand erosion under natural environment changes or human activities is a major
concern to many coastal zones, where weak and loose calcareous sands are usually …

Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) has been found promisingly to improve
soil mass properties with the environmentally friendly biogeochemical process, while MICP …

Previous studies have shown that biocement, or microbially induced calcite precipitation,
can improve the mechanical behaviour of clean sand. However, the behaviour of …

The microbial-induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) method has gained intense attention
in recent years as a safe and sustainable alternative for soil improvement and for use in …

Animal fibers with α-keratin had obvious advantages of mechanical strength and durability
on reinforced microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP)-cemented loose sands …

The utilizing of traditional chemical stabilizers could improve soil engineering properties but
also results in brittle behavior and causes environmental problems. This study investigates …

Microbial induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP)–based biocementation method
coupled with fiber reinforcement was adopted to improve the engineering properties of …

Investigation of the enhanced mechanical response of treated soils through microbially
induced calcite precipitation requires extensive understanding of the pore structure …

This technical note examines the splitting tensile strength properties of natural sand treated
