Extended TTS Model for Thermal and Mechanical Creep of Clay and Sand
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In geothermal engineering, the long-term thermomechanical responses of sand and clay are difficult to predict due to the lack of an essential understanding of thermally induced volume change. Recent experimental studies ...
Biomineralization of Carbonate by Terrabacter Tumescens for Heavy Metal Removal and Biogrouting Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The ability of Terrabacter tumescens to precipitate carbonate minerals has been demonstrated for the first time. Biomineralization of nickel, copper, lead, cobalt, zinc, cadmium and calcium by T. tumescens and mineral ...
Enhancing Strength of MICP-Treated Sand with Scrap of Activated Carbon-Fiber Felt
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) technique takes advantage of the metabolic process of bacteria bonding soil particles together with an environmentally-friendly and sustainable manner. In this study, ...
