The Micromechanical Behaviour of a Biogenic Carbonate Sand
Procedia Engineering, 2016 AbstractAn experimental investigation of the micromechanical behaviour of a biogenic carbonate sand from the Philippines was conducted. Mechanical parameters of sands at the micro-scale are required in order to simulate the particle interactions in numerical analyses carried out using the Discrete Element Method (DEM).

Rhodolith detritus impounded by a coastal dune on Isla Coronados, Gulf of California
Ciencias Marinas, 2007 Sand from a small dune on the southwest side of Isla Coronados with an estimated volume of 30,000 m3 is enriched as much as 86.5% by calcium-carbonate detritus from beached rhodoliths.

Microbially Induced Carbonate Precipitation for Seepage-Induced Internal Erosion Control in Sand–Clay Mixtures [PDF]
, 2016 Earth embankment dams are one of the most commonly constructed hydraulic infrastructures worldwide. One mode of dam failure is piping through the embankment, which is initiated by internal erosion of soil particles inside dams.

Centrifuge modelling of monotonic and cyclic lateral responses of monopiles in quartz and carbonate sands [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesThis study evaluates the soil-structure interaction of monopiles subjected to monotonic and cyclic lateral loading by means of centrifuge modelling. The monopile were installed in two types of dense sands: quarts and carbonate. To evaluate the static and

Improved drag coefficient and settling velocity for carbonate sands [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractSediment transport calculations are used globally in the numerical models that coastal managers, scientists and engineers use to assess and forecast coastal change. Most of the existing sediment transport equations were defined based on experimental results using siliciclastic sands.
