Microbial induced calcite precipitation (MICP) offers a host of interesting features, from both theoretical and practical standpoints. This process was firstly investigated as geo-biological mechanism involved in carbonate mineral formation rocks soil. The interest its use has significantly increased recent years, MICP been used different fields, such oil recovery, the improvement soil geotechn...

The mechanical and durability properties of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) are generally inferior to conventional due the old mortar attached surface original aggregate, which induces more complicated interfacial transition zones (ITZs) in RAC. microbial induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) modification is a novel environmentally-friendly method improve ITZs In this study, physical coarse ...

Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) has been proposed as a sustainable approach to solve various environmental, structural, geotechnical and architectural issues. In the last decade, ubiquitous microbial metabolism, nitrate reduction (also known denitrification) got attention in MICP research due its unique added benefits such simultaneous corrosion inhibition concrete desaturati...

Interaction between microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) and compaction procedures to stabilise raw soil materials has been studied with the aim of producing earthen engineering structures. Initial tests optimise MICP in aqueous medium selected soils were performed. finally applied assess medium-size elements. The main result was that sandy should be compacted before irrig...

Micro-crack is the start of concrete deterioration and failure, though it does not decrease bearing capacity in beginning. In order to prolong service life existing structures, important repair micro-cracks before they develop into large cracks, which are much more harmful. Bio-genic CaCO 3 from microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) process proved be a promising crack material due ...

Microbial-induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is a natural process that offered various applications in the engineering field materials and construction industry. It has recently emerged as an innovative, eco-friendly, economically engineeredprocess. One of successful MICP methods improving properties soils ureolysis. The ureolysis drove precipitate which binds soil particles within matrix thu...

Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) has been a promising method to improve geotechnical engineering properties; however, there are few literatures about the application of MICP strength characteristics expansive soils with low permeability. In this paper, series CD triaxial tests were carried out investigate effect on soils. The results show that shear specimens increased increase ...

Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) mimics the natural cementation process that occurs in various geological settings by using bicarbonate minerals resulting from bacterial metabolic pathways as cementing agents. This bio-technique can be used to manufacture so-called “bio-bricks,” which rival regular bricks strength and durability. In last two decades, MICP has been increasingly...

Signal Temporal Logic (STL) provides a convenient way of encoding complex control objectives for robotic and cyber-physical systems. The state-of-the-art in trajectory synthesis STL is based on Mixed-Integer Convex Programming (MICP). MICP approach sound complete, but has limited scalability due to exponential complexity the number binary variables. In this letter, we propose more efficient STL...
