With increasing focus on industrialized processing, investigating, understanding, and modelling the structural build-up of cementitious materials becomes more important. The structural build-up governs the key property of fresh printable materials -- buildability -- and it influences the mechanical properties after the deposition. The structural build-up rate can be adjusted by optimization of the mixture composition and the use of concrete admixtures. Additionally, it is known, that the environmental conditions, i.e. humidity and temperature have a significant impact on the kinetic of cement hydration and the resulting hardened properties, such as shrinkage, cracking resistance etc. In this study, small amplitude oscillatory shear (SAOS) tests are applied to examine the structural build-up rate of cement paste subject to different temperatures under controlled humidity. The results indicate significant influences of the ambient temperature on the intensity of the re-flocculation (Rthix) rate, while the structuration rate (Athix) is almost not affected. A bi-linear thixotropy model extended by temperature dependent parameters coupled with a linear viscoelastic material model is proposed to simulate the mechanical behaviour considering the structural build-up during the SAOS test.

Structural build-up describes the stability and early-age strength development of fresh mortar used in 3D printing. lt is influenced by several factors, i.e. the composition of the print able material, the printing regime, and the ambient conditions. The existing modelling approaches for structural build-up usually define the model parameters for a specific material composition with out considering the influence of the ambient conditions. The goal of this contribution is to explicitly include the temperature dependency in the modelling approach. Temperature changes have signifi cant impact on the structural build-up process: an increase of the temperature leads to a faster dissol ution of cement phases and accelerates hydration. The proposed extended model includes temperature dependency using the Arrhenius theory. The new model parameters are successfully calibrated based on Viskomat measurement data using Bayesian inference. Furthermore, a higher impact of the temperature in the re-flocculation as in the structuration stage is observed.
For extrusion-based 3D concrete printing, the early age mechanical behavior is influenced by various time dependent phenomena: structural build-up, plasticity as well as viscosity. The structural build-up is governing the stability and early-age strength development of the fresh printable cementitious materials and with that influencing the printability, buildability, and open time of the printing process. Generally, it is influenced by a number of factors, i.e. composition of the printable material, printing regime, and ambient conditions (temperature, humidity, etc.). There are several approaches to model the structural build-up of cementitious materials. All models are based on a time-dependent internal structural parameter describing the flocculation state, which is assumed to be zero after mixing and increases with time. The approaches differ in the definition of the time dependency (linear, exponential, bi-linear). Usually, the parameters are defined for a specific material composition without considering the influence of ambient conditions.
In this contribution, the bi-linear structural build-up model [Kruger et al., Construction and Building Materials 224, 2019] is extended by the temperature influence. Temperature changes will occur in real life printing processes due to changing ambient conditions (summer, winter, day, night) as well as the printing process (pressure changes etc.) and have a significant impact on the structural build-up process: an increase of the temperature leads to a faster dissolution of cement phases, accelerates hydration and boosts the Brownian motion. For that reason, the model parameters are simulated as temperature dependent using an Arrhenius function. Furthermore, the proposed extended model is calibrated based on measurement data using Bayesian inference. A very good agreement of the predicted model data with the measured control data was reached. Additionally, the structural build-up model is integrated into a viscoelastic and elastoplastic mechanical model, simulating the whole mechanical behavior during layer deposition.
The main challenge in using numerical models as digital twins in real applications for prognosis purposes, such as reliability analysis, is the calibration and validation of the models based on uncertain measurement data. Uncertainties are not limited to the measurement data, but the numerical model itself will not be perfect due to the modelling assumptions.
In this contribution, a probabilistic inference method for model calibration, based on the Bayes’ Theorem, is used to face that issue. Such inference approaches include uncertainties on the data as well as on the model parameters, allowing to compute an a posteriori distribution for the model parameters as well as a noise term reflecting the measured data. However, such probabilistic inference methods require a lot of evaluations of the numerical forward model for different model parameters. An improvement of the efficiency is obtained by replacing the forward model with a reduced model. Model reduction, e.g. the proper generalized decomposition (PGD) method, is a popular concept to decrease the computational effort, where each evaluation of the reduced forward model is a pure less costly function evaluation.
The heterogeneous spatial distribution of material parameters in the forward model is described by a lognormal random field. This allows identifying a variable stiffness over the spatial directions by identifying the random field variables with given measurement data. These changes can e.g. be caused by damage. The lognormal field is approximated as series expansion for the PGD problem.
The derived efficient model identification procedure is shown using a real reinforced prestress demonstrator bridge and stereophotogrammetry measurement data. A digital twin for that demonstrator bridge is build up using a set of measurement data and verified by testing additional measurement data. PGD model error against the FEM model is discussed based on an importance sampling analysis computing the Bayes Factor.
The High-Fidelity Generalized Method of Cells (HFGMC) is one technique, distinct from traditional finite-element approaches, for accurately simulating nonlinear composite material behavior. In this work, the HFGMC global system of equations for doubly periodic repeating unit cells with nonlinear constituents has been reduced in size through the novel application of a Petrov-Galerkin Proper Orthogonal Decomposition order-reduction scheme in order to improve its computational efficiency. Order-reduced models of an E-glass/Nylon 12 composite led to a 4.8–6.3x speedup in the equation assembly/solution runtime while maintaining model accuracy. This corresponded to a 21–38% reduction in total runtime.Thesignificant difference in assembly/solution and total runtimes was attributed to the evaluation of integration point inelastic field quantities; this step was identical between the unreduced and order-reduced models. Nonetheless, order-reduced techniques offer the potential to significantly improve the computational efficiency of multiscale calculations.

Thermal transient problems, essential for modeling applications like welding and additive metal manufacturing, are characterized by a dynamic evolution of temperature. Accurately simulating these phenomena is often computationally expensive, thus limiting their applications, for example for model parameter estimation or online process control. Model order reduction, a solution to preserve the accuracy while reducing the computation time, is explored. This article addresses challenges in developing reduced order models using the proper generalized decomposition (PGD) for transient thermal problems with a specific treatment of the moving heat source within the reduced model. Factors affecting accuracy, convergence, and computational cost, such as discretization methods (finite element and finite difference), a dimensionless formulation, the size of the heat source, and the inclusion of material parameters as additional PGD variables are examined across progressively complex examples. The results demonstrate the influence of these factors on the PGD model’s performance and emphasize the importance of their consideration when implementing such models. For thermal example, it is demonstrated that a PGD model with a finite difference discretization in time, a dimensionless representation, a mapping for a moving heat source, and a spatial domain non-separation yields the best approximation to the full order model.
Multiscale modeling of linear elastic heterogeneous structures via localized model order reduction
(2023)
In this paper, a methodology for fine scale modeling of large scale linear elastic structures is proposed, which combines the variational multiscale method, domain decomposition and model order reduction. The influence of the fine scale on the coarse scale is modelled by the use of an additive split of the displacement field, addressing applications without a clear scale separation. Local reduced spaces are constructed by solving an oversampling problem with random boundary conditions. Herein, we inform the boundary conditions by a global reduced problem and compare our approach using physically meaningful correlated samples with existing approaches using uncorrelated samples. The local spaces are designed such that the local contribution of each subdomain can be coupled in a conforming way, which also preserves the sparsity pattern of standard finite element assembly procedures. Several numerical experiments show the accuracy and efficiency of the method, as well as its potential to reduce the size of the local spaces and the number of training samples compared to the uncorrelated sampling.
