Using sand with different particle sizes as soil matrix
MICP-geomaterial samples were generated through microbial induced mineralization technique.The shear strength of the samples was obtained by means of direct shear test after natural conservation for 7 days.The results show that the internal friction angle scatters in the broadest range for MICP-fine sandy soil and in the narrowest range for MICP-coarse sand.This is attributed to the cementation of the microbial induced mineralized materials in the soil pore.The strength of the MICP-coarse sand soil mainly depends on the interlock of the induced calcium carbonate because this material has a large void.The strength of mineralized geosynthetics enhances effectively with the increase of surface roughness of medium coarse sandy soil.Fine sand has small voids and large density
leading to maximum shear strength.Then an agent model was established using polynomial chaotic extended method.The first four-order statistical moments were obtained.The uncertainty of the output response of the internal friction angle was quantified.
