Temperature effects on carbon storage are controlled by soil stabilisation capacities [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 The extent to which temperature controls soil carbon storage remains highly uncertain. Here, the authors show that, globally, soil carbon stocks decline strongly with temperature, but the effect is much greater in coarse-textured soils with limited ...

Buildings, 2023 Soil, a naturally occurring resource, is increasingly used as a construction material. Stabilisation strengthens soil, which is weak as an engineering material. Stabilising soil changes its physical qualities, enhancing its strength.

Review of Fly-Ash-Based Geopolymers for Soil Stabilisation with Special Reference to Clay
Geosciences, 2020 Alkali-activated binders, more commonly referred to as “geopolymers”, have recently emerged as a good alternative to traditional binders (e.g., lime and cement) for soil stabilisation.

Emerging trends in expansive soil stabilisation: A review
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2019 Expansive soils are problematic due to the performances of their clay mineral constituent, which makes them exhibit the shrink-swell characteristics. The shrink-swell behaviours make expansive soils inappropriate for direct engineering application in ...

The Potential Of The Soil For Stabilisation Of Organic Carbon In Soil Aggregates [PDF]
Agriculture, 2015 Carbon stabilisation in soil is the result of interaction between the chemical and physical mechanisms of protection and the dominance of the mechanism depends not only on the long-term constant characteristics of soil but also on the properties, which ...

Biomimicry in the Context of Stabilised Porous Clays [PDF]
BiomimeticsThis study explores the etymological roots of nature and nature-inspired design within the context of soil stabilisation. It outlines Aristotle’s doctrine of hylomorphism and applies these concepts to develop a pathway for the stabilisation of clays ...

GeodermaPlant residue input is vital for soil organic carbon (SOC) formation and stabilisation. While soil aggregates serve as fundamental units for SOC physical stabilisation, residue-derived C distribution among aggregate fractions and the factors regulating ...

Cleaner Engineering and Technology, 2021 Expansive soils are problematic soils which pose a risk to the safety of civil engineering structures. These soils can be treated by compaction or by adding additives to the soil. Where the strength and properties of expansive soil cannot be improved via

Effect of ceramic tiles dust on physical and engineering properties of tropical residual soil [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2022 Ceramic tile dust is a by-product from manufacturing plant or construction site which leads to the disposal or environmental issues. Previous research has identified the potential of ceramic tile dust in concrete and soil stabilisation.
