Bio-remediation of desiccation cracking in clayey soils through microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP)

, 2020
Desiccation cracking is a common natural phenomenon in clayey soils, considerably degrading their mechanical and hydraulic properties. Typical remediation methods are associated with high labor costs, high maintenance costs, or the usage of environment ...
