Contact point geometry governs structural build-up at rest in Portland cement-limestone blends
Luca Michel, Antoine Sanner, Franco Zunino +2
The early stiffening of fresh cement paste plays a key role in shaping and stability during casting and 3D printing. In Portland cement systems, this phenomenon arises from the for…

Breaking better: How imperfections increase fracture resistance in architected lattices
Alessandra Lingua, Antoine Sanner, François Hild +1
Fracture behavior in architected materials can be influenced by heterogeneities, yet the mechanisms by which imperfections affect crack propagation remain poorly understood. In thi…
