Abstract:The employment of Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICP) is of increasing interest as a technique for environmentally sustainable soil stabilisation. Recent advancements in synthetic biology have allowed for the conception of a pressure-responsive MICP process, wherein bacteria are engineered to sense environmental loads, thereby offering the potential to stabilise specific soil regions selectively. In this study, a 2D smart bio-geotechnical model is proposed based on a pressure-responsive … Show more
