ACC-3D focuses on developing innovative cementitious composites that incorporate auxetic materials as reinforcement. This approach aims to enhance the ductility and energy absorption capacity of concrete, making it more resilient to impacts and seismic events, which is crucial for structures like nuclear power plants.
Concrete is inherently brittle.
This is a problem because important structures such as nuclear power plants need ductility to remain functional after earthquakes and impacts. ACC-3D aims at creating novel, ductile cementitious composites by using local reinforcement with an unusual quality, negative Poisson's ratio, known as auxetics.
Currently, steel rebars or fibers are used to make concrete ductile.
Such reinforcement is only active once the concrete has cracked: it prevents existing cracks f…
