Soil stabilization is the process of improving the shear strength parameters of soil and thus increasing the bearing capacity of soil. It is required when the soil available for construction is not suitable to carry structural load. Soils exhibit generally undesirable engineering properties. Soil St...

Microbial induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a natural bio-mediated process, which has been explored for soil stabilization and heavy metals immobilization in soil and groundwater. Previous studies have shown that MICP is capable of immobilizing various heavy metals including lead (Pb). Howev...

The microbial‑induced carbonate precipitation (MICP), as an emerging biomineralization technology mediated by specific bacteria, has been a popular research focus for scientists and engineers through the previous two decades as an interdisciplinary approach. It provides cutting-edge solutions for va...

Abstract Sandstorms have been recognized as severe natural disasters worldwide and are currently occurring with increasing frequently due to global warming and land desertification. This study aims to mitigate their development and combat erosion caused by sandstorms and wind by improving sand‐surfa...

Clays with high sensitivity exhibit varied degrees of thixotropic characteristics. Previous research has been focused on dilute suspensions, but only a few studies have investigated normal clay with water contents lower than the liquid limit. Given the limited studies performed, the thixotropic beha...

Sandstorms are meteorological phenomena common in arid and semi-arid regions and have been recognized severe natural disasters worldwide. The key problem is how to control and mitigate sandstorm natural disasters. This research aims to mitigate their development by improving surface stability and so...

The strength of soil-nails depends on the behavior of the soil-cement grout interface at saturated and unsaturated conditions. Nowadays, pressure grouted soil-nails are considered to provide better interface strength than gravity grouted soil-nails. Soil-nail pullout tests have limitations to contro...

To mitigate foreshore erosion, it is necessary to find effective and environmentally friendly interventions to stabilize slopes. In this study, the microbiota and enzyme mix–induced carbonate precipitation (MEMCP) method was proposed to improve foreshore slopes’ stability and mitigate erosion. In th...

Lignin is an organic industrial by-product, stockpiles of which are rapidly accumulating worldwide. A feasibility investigation was carried out with respect to the stabilization of silty soils using lignin. The fall cone test method was employed to determine the undrained shear strength (su) and Att...

Unconsolidated-undrained (UU) tests were conducted to investigate the mechanical and morphological properties of undisturbed and remoulded red clay, with the microscopic characteristics determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The microanalysis showed that the red clay aggregate was granula...
