Rheological assessment and characterization of fresh cement pastes play a key role in
designing mixes for a variety of applications, including 3D printing. However, there is …

Polyacrylamide (PAM) has been widely applied as a viscosity modifier to optimize the
workability of cement-based materials, but PAMs with different ionic types may show various …

Cracking of cement-based materials is a critical problem that inhibits the safe operation of
structures. In this study, polyvinyl alcohol fibers were used as raw materials to prepare …

Predicting the static yield stress (τ 0 S) is relevant to design innovative concrete
technologies. This paper evaluated three machine learning methods to choose the most …

Time-dependent rheological properties of cement-based materials have a significant impact
on 3D printing processes, where multiple rheological requirements should be met. A proper …
