Mechanical Properties of Lightweight Cementitious Cellular Composites Incorporating Micro-Encapsulated Phase Change Material

This work focuses on combining digitally architected cellular structures with cementitious mortar incorporating micro-encapsulated phase change material (mPCM) to fabricated lightweight cementitious cellular composites (LCCCs). Voronoi structures with different randomness are designed for the LCCCs. Aided by the indirect 3D printing technique,...

Architected Cementitious Cellular Materials: Peculiarities and opportunities

Conventionally, the properties of cementitious materials are tailored by a simple but efficient method: mixture proportion design. For a given cementitious mixture, the chemical and physical properties of cementitious materials have already been determined. Consequently, the mechanical performance of the hardened cementitious material is...
