Biomineralization is a naturally occurring process in living organisms. In this review, we
discuss microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) in detail. In the MICP …

The environmental conditions of caves shape microbiota. Within caves' microbial
communities, actinomycetes are among the most abundant bacteria. Cave actinomycetes …

Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a process that has emerged
as an alternative and sustainable ground improvement approach in geotechnical and civil …

Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is a recently developed technique for
microbiological ground improvement that has been applied for mitigating various …

Earthquake-induced liquefaction causes soil to exhibit fluidlike behavior due to a sudden
increase in pore water pressure and a concurrent decrease in effective stress. The …

Although traditional methods of liquefaction mitigation have been widely applied in
engineering practice, some prominent problems remain such as limits on the size of the …

Bio-cementation of natural sand is a prospective solution to improve their engineering
properties. The enhancement of strength and low-strain shear modulus is considered to be …

Generally, silty sand possesses very negligible cohesion and may fail under dynamic
loading due to liquefaction. To mitigate liquefaction, treatment using biopolymers are now …

Liquefaction is a common concern for geotechnical engineers in moderate-to-high seismic
areas. Loose, non-plastic and saturated soils are most prone to liquefaction. Traditional …

Marine clay soils are problematic soils in the construction industry when they are subjected
to construction loads. When these soils are loaded, they lose their structure. This leads to the …
