Vision of 3D printing with concrete — Technical, economic and environmental potentials
Geert De Schutter,Karel Lesage,Viktor Mechtcherine,Venkatesh Naidu Nerella,Guillaume Habert,Isolda Agustí-Juan +5 more
TL;DR: A vision is presented on 3D printing with concrete, considering technical, economic and environmental aspects, and it is expected that for structures with the same functionality, DFC will environmentally perform better over the entire service life in comparison with conventionally produced concrete structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dispersion of carbon nanotubes and its influence on the mechanical properties of the cement matrix
Anastasia Sobolkina,Viktor Mechtcherine,Vyacheslav O. Khavrus,Diana Maier,Mandy Mende,Manfred Ritschel,Albrecht Leonhardt +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of sonication on the deagglomeration of CNTs in combination with anionic and nonionic surfactants in varying concentrations was quantitatively investigated when preparing aqueous dispersions of carbon nanotubes for the subsequent use in cement paste.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation between the molecular structure and the efficiency of superabsorbent polymers (SAP) as concrete admixture to mitigate autogenous shrinkage
TL;DR: In this article, superabsorbent polymers (SAP) were studied as admixtures for mitigating the autogenous shrinkage of a high-strength concrete, and the presence of Ca 2+ ions in the alkaline solution modified the kinetics of the liquid uptake and release when compared to that in other saline solutions and distilled water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of layer-interface properties on mechanical performance of concrete elements produced by extrusion-based 3D-printing
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the influence of binder composition and time interval between layers on layer-interface strength in 3D-printable cement-based compositions (3PCs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Extrusion-based additive manufacturing with cement-based materials – Production steps, processes, and their underlying physics: A review
Viktor Mechtcherine,Freek Bos,Arnaud Perrot,W.R. Leal da Silva,Venkatesh Naidu Nerella,Shirin Fataei,Rjm Rob Wolfs,Mohammed Sonebi,Nicolas Roussel +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive overview of the underlying physics relevant to an understanding of materials processing during the various production steps in extrusion-based 3D concrete printing (3DCP) is presented.
