TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of bagasse ash (BA) admixture on the engineering properties of lime treated black cotton soil was carried out and the results obtained show that the moisture density relationship follows a trend of increasing optimum moisture content (OMC)/decreasing maximum dry density (MDD) at the Standard Proctor compaction energy.

TL;DR: The microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) research technique is an innovative and relatively green technology which consists in a biological process through which microorganisms react with minerals (calcium source and cementation reagent) to produce calcite (CaCO3) as a byproduct that modifies and improves the engineering properties of soil as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the plasticity characteristics of lateritic soil with varying Sporosarcina pasteurii suspension density and compositional variables were evaluated in microbial-induced calcite precipitation (MICP) application.

TL;DR: This study aimed at applying the ANNs as a soft computing approach that were trained with the feed forward back-propagation algorithm, for the simulation of optimum moisture content (OMC) and maximum dry density (MDD) of cement kiln dust-stabilized black cotton soil.

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of a laboratory study on the effect of oil contamination on the particle size distribution and plasticity characteristics of lateritic soil were presented. And they showed that there was a substantial reduction in the amount of fines content with higher amounts of oil in the soil matrix.
