Cement and concrete are vital materials used to construct durable habitats and infrastructure
that withstand natural and human-caused disasters. Still, concrete cracking imposes …

In this study, several aspects of autogenous and autonomous healing concrete are
discussed, including their characterization, processes, and performances. Mineral …

Cracking is a common disease of concrete structures, and the use of microbially induced
calcite precipitation (MICP) to repair cracks is a current research focus. The method of …

This paper presents the results from a new approach for self-healing concrete. Conventional
macro-capsules such as those made of glass cannot resist the harsh mixing process of …

In this study, we developed nature-inspired multi-functional polymeric fibers (called
BioFiber) to deliver bio-self-healing agents into cementitious materials. BioFibers were …

In this paper, optimization of vascular structure of self-healing concrete is performed with
deep neural network (DNN). An input representation method is proposed to effectively …

This study combined the microcapsule self-healing system with fiber reinforced concrete
(FRC), and investigated the effects of microcapsule content, mineral admixture type, mineral …

The use of capsule-based technology for self-sealing and self-healing cementitious systems
has been extensively investigated for both macro-and microencapsulated additions. In this …

This study determined the impact of oxygen and water on the crack healing performance of
bacteria-based self-healing cementitious composites (BBSHCCs). Oxygen and water are …

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 …
