Temperature effects on carbon storage are controlled by soil stabilisation capacities [PDF]

open access: yesNature 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 ...

Global Research Trends in Engineered Soil Development through Stabilisation: Scientific Production and Thematic Breakthrough Analysis

open access: yesBuildings, 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

open access: yesGeosciences, 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

open access: yesJournal 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]

open access: yesAgriculture, 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 ...

Plant residue quality regulates its incorporation into soil aggregates and organic carbon stabilisation

open access: yesGeoderma
Plant 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 ...

Biomimicry in the Context of Stabilised Porous Clays [PDF]

open access: yesBiomimetics
This 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 ...

Comparative Study of the Effects of Conventional, Waste, and Alternative Materials on the Geomechanical Properties of Clayey Soil in the Chemical Soil Stabilisation Technique

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This paper presents an extensive comparative analysis of the experimental results of chemical stabilisation of clayey soil in laboratory conditions by comparing the effects of adding conventional stabilisers (lime, cement binder), stabilisers that can be

Understanding the performance of expansive subgrade materials treated with non-traditional stabilisers: A review

open access: yesCleaner 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
