Biomineralized cement-based materials: impact of inoculating vegetative bacterial cells on hydration and strength
Bundur, Zeynep Başaran; Kirisits, M. J.; Ferron, R. D. (Elsevier, 2015-01)Biomineralization in cement-based materials has become a point of interest in recent years due to the possibility that such an approach could be used to develop a self-healing cement-based system. The objective of this ... -
Evaluation of self-healing of internal cracks in biomimetic mortar using coda wave interferometry
Liu, S.; Bundur, Zeynep Başaran; Zhu, J.; Ferron, R. D. (Elsevier, 2016-05)Calcium carbonate biomineralization is a bio-chemical process in which calcium carbonate precipitation is obtained by leveraging the metabolic activity of microorganisms. Studies have shown that biomineralization can be ... -
Use of biomineralisation in developing smart concrete inspired by nature
Zhang, B.; Bundur, Zeynep Başaran; Mondal, P.; Ferron, R. D. (Inderscience, 2015)Recently, interest has focused on leveraging the biological functions of microorganisms to develop smart cement-based materials. This paper provides an overview of the calcium carbonate biomineralisation process in nature ... -
Use of pre-wetted lightweight fine expanded shale aggregates as internal nutrient reservoirs for microorganisms in bio-mineralized mortar
Bundur, Zeynep Başaran; Kirisits, M. J.; Ferron, R. D. (Elsevier, 2017-11)Interest in developing bio-based self-healing cement-based materials has gained broader attention in the concrete community. One of challenges in developing bio-based self-healing cement-based materials is that cell death ...
