Within the past decade, X-ray micro computed tomography (µCT) has become an advanced
non-destructive tool to analyse the internal structure of opaque materials. In addition to high …

Enzymatically induced calcium carbonate precipitation is a promising geotechnique with the
potential, for example, to seal leakage pathways in the subsurface or to stabilize soils …

Many subsurface engineering technologies or natural processes cause porous medium
properties, such as porosity or permeability, to evolve in time. Studying and understanding …

This research focuses on performing ultrasound propagation measurements and micro-X-
ray computed tomography (µXRCT) imaging on prestressed granular packings prepared …

Enzymatically induced calcite precipitation (EICP) in porous media can be used as an
engineering option to achieve precipitation in the pore space, for example, aiming at a …

The imaging of particulate media–encompassing both the imaging of the particles
