Wan, Z. (author), Xu, Y. (author), He, S. (author), Chen, Y. (author), Xie, J. (author), Šavija, B. (author)Direct ink writing of cementitious materials can be an alternative way for creating vascular self-healing concrete by intentionally incorporating hollow channels in the cementitious matrix. In this study, a 3D-printable fibre reinforced mortar was first developed. Three groups of specimens were fabricated using direct ink writing, where the...journal article 2023

Wan, Z. (author), Zhang, Y. (author), Xu, Y. (author), Šavija, B. (author)Additively manufactured vascular networks have great potential for use in autonomous self-healing of cementitious composites as they potentially allow multiple healing events to take place. However, the existence of a vascular tube wall may impede with the healing efficiency if it does not rupture timely to release the healing agent. The...journal article 2023
