Concrete additive manufacturing 2.0 is here: Multi-materials AM (MMAM) with concrete-polymer (hyper elastic/Thermoplastic); so is a new class of concrete: Architected Cementitious Composite (ACC) w/ toughness & ductility orders of mag. above cast & #3dpc #concrete #c3dp #additive
Moini Lab@LabMoini

A new class of concrete and additive manufacturing is here. Two key contributions: 1) engineering new toughening mechanisms in concrete, “arrest-bridging-reenucleation” enabled by soft materials in layered concrete, 2) a multi-material AM technique from scratch. #princeton #CEE

Reading again the essay by Walter Noll, The Role of the Professor. He "lives" his subject and cannot easily switch it off, even while lying in bed awake or on vacation. He recreates the subject in his mind each time he lectures on it. math.cmu.edu/~wn0g/RP.pdf

@AjayBHarish @zhigangsuo What a wonderful read. I like the articulation of professors as mediators between teachers and researchers, described beautifully at the end.

@zhigangsuo I had read this before and it is very inspiring. When I hit a deadend because of the admin overload, I try to read such things to inspire back the academic in me :)

Fracture mechanics is an idealization. Central to this idealization is energy release rate, defined using an ideal body in which a crack is stationary and deformation is elastic, and applied to a real body in which a crack grows by a localized irreversible process.

Honored to be the recipient of ACI’s Walter P. Moore Jr., Junior Faculty Award for my teaching contribution in design and mechanics of concrete materials. This award is especially meaningful in recognizing the need for new approaches in curriculum and UG education. @EPrinceton

2024 on the last issue of AM w/ my PhD student Shashank marked a great year end. This 2nd cover of the year, featured how complex statistical & fracture mechanics concepts can be used to simply define disorder & engineer toughness: lnkd.in/efM-Z4KV #architectedmaterials
Princeton Engineering@EPrinceton

Congrats to @moini_reza and Shashank Gupta for their cover story in the journal Advanced Materials! They created a strong, tough cement-based material that was inspired by human bones. @AdvPortfolio onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/152140…

It was a great pleasure to give a seminar at Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics at Penn last week and interact with the amazing mechanician faculty and students! Many thanks for having me!
Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics, Penn@MEAM_Penn

We were delighted to have @moini_reza from @EPrinceton for a fascinating talk on bio-inspired materials engineering! His work on hard-soft composites, inspired by mollusk shells, is revolutionizing how we think about making brittle materials tougher.
