From soil to printed structures: A systematic approach to designing clay-based materials for 3D printing in construction and architecture
Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) printing of clayey soils has been gaining traction in
construction and architecture due to its eco-friendliness and design advantages. However …

Thixotropy, antithixotropy, and viscoelasticity in hysteresis
Thixotropy, antithixotropy, and viscoelasticity are three types of time-dependent dynamics
that involve fundamentally different underlying physical processes. Here, we show that the …

Origins of complexity in the rheology of Soft Earth suspensions
When wet soil becomes fully saturated by intense rainfall, or is shaken by an earthquake, it
may fluidize catastrophically. Sand-rich slurries are treated as granular suspensions, where …

Elastoviscoplasticity, hyperaging, and time–age-time–temperature superposition in aqueous dispersions of bentonite clay
Clay slurries are both ubiquitous and essential in the oil exploration industry, and are most
commonly employed as drilling fluids. Due to its natural abundance, bentonite clay is often …

Distinct rheological behavior of kaolinite dispersions containing gas bubbles at different initial pore water pressures
Y Lin, X Tan, Y Hong, L Wang - Applied Clay Science, 2023 - Elsevier
Discrete gas bubbles widely exist in the marine sediments, which are largely composed of
kaolinite clay. They would evolve into kaolinite dispersions following submarine landslide, to …
