Bierach, C.B. (author), Alberts Coelho, A.A.C. (author), Turrin, M. (author), Așut, Serdar (author), Knaack, U. (author)Under urgent sustainability targets, the building industry craves for renewable and recyclable biomaterials as cellulose is a fiber; Lignin is a plant-derived low-cost polymer with remarkable properties, yet its valorization is in its infancy. Recent studies have shown potentials to combine cellulose and lignin into a renewable bio-based...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

van Oudheusden, A.A. (author), Bolanos Arriola, J. (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), Flipsen, Bas (author), Balkenende, R. (author)The availability and storage of spare parts are the main barriers to product repair. One possibility would be to 3D print spare parts, which would also enable the repair of products not intended to be repaired. Besides manufacturers, 3D printing spare parts is an interesting option for self-repair by consumers. However, the digitisation of...journal article 2023

Khatami, Mohamad (author), Doniavi, Ali (author), Abazari, Amir Musa (author), Fotouhi, M. (author)This paper presents a new design strategy to improve the flexibility and strength-to-weight ratio of polymeric stents. The proposed design introduces a variable-thickness (VT) stent that outperforms conventional polymeric stents with constant thickness (CT). While polymeric stents offer benefits like flexibility and bioabsorption, their...journal article 2023

Wan, Z. (author), Xu, Y. (author), Zhang, Y. (author), He, S. (author), Šavija, B. (author)Cracking is one of the main causes for deterioration of concrete structures. Self-healing concrete with 3D-printed vascular networks has excellent potential for autonomous self-healing. This approach is scarcely investigated: no studies have been devoted to the influence of printing parameters on the properties of vascular based self-healing...journal article 2022
