Autonomous healing by vascular networks: tracking of cracks interaction by Ultrasounds and Acoustic Emission

The tracking of healing on concrete slabs where dense crack patterns are formed under bending is reported using Acoustic Emission (AE) and Ultrasound Pulse Velocity (UPV). Additively manufactured polymeric networks are designed to distribute a polyurethane agent through capillary actions and under p...
