Field Implementation of Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation for Surface Erosion Reduction of a Coastal Plain Sandy Slope
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Over the past decade, several researchers have demonstrated that microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) has the potential to improve soil behavior in the laboratory setting. In this study, MICP was implemented ...
Quantifying Level of Microbial-Induced Cementation for Cyclically Loaded Sand
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Microbial-induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is a novel soil-improvement technique that improves the behavior of sands subjected to dynamic loading. The level of cementation of MICP-treated sands is commonly quantified ...
Influence of Microbe and Enzyme-Induced Treatments on Cemented Sand Shear Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) and enzyme-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (EICP) are both soil improvement techniques that improve the shear response of sands. However, the source of urease ...
Distribution and Properties of Microbially Induced Carbonate Precipitation in Underwater Sand Bed
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is an innovative approach to strengthening and improving loose porous media. To advance MICP implementation in various geotechnical applications, the work presented herein ...
Framework for the Development of Strain-Based Ultimate Performance Limit State Criterion for the Stability of Earthen Embankments
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Repeated rapid drawdown (RDD) and rapid rise in water level during extreme events lead to the progressive development of plastic strain zones within the earth embankments with subtle, rather than obvious, visible signs of ...
Mineral Evaluation and Undrained Cyclic Shear Response of MICP-Treated Sand in the Presence of Magnesium and Sulfate
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) has attracted considerable interest as an innovative technology that improves soil’s stiffness and strength via CaCO3 precipitation induced by microbial metabolic activity. ...
Various Bacterial Attachment Functions and Modeling of Biomass Distribution in MICP Implementations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Microbial induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) offers a robust technique to improve strength and stiffness properties of subsurface soils supporting infrastructures. Several unknown factors, including the MICP ...
Enhancement of Coal Ash Compressibility Parameters Using Microbial-Induced Carbonate Precipitation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) was experimentally implemented on two coal ash materials (i.e., CA1 and CA3) to investigate the efficacy of the treatment on the hydraulic and compressibility ...
