Wenchao Zhou, an associate professor of <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/mechanics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mechanic<\/a>al engineering, and Cameron Murray, an assistant professor of civil engineering, will serve as co-PIs.<\/p>\n<p>Barry, who oversees the Granular Materials Research Laboratory, will have several responsibilities, including the exploration of new material structures and geometric configurations to optimize performance and efficiency. This will include examining biomimetic structures that can reduce material use while increasing strength.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/4711472320981832207.jpeg\" class=\"aligncenter\">   Michelle Barry and Wenchao Zhou in the AMBOTS lab, in front of a robotic <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D printing<\/a> platform. Source: University of Arkansas.   <\/p>\n<p>Barry will also be cataloging and characterizing a range of indigenous soils to determine their suitability for incorporation into concrete. The idea is that an expeditionary force will be able to deploy and make use of local materials in horizontal construction rather than shipping cement and aggregates across vast distances. The force would instead have a convenient catalog of recipes for concrete mixes adapted to local conditions with the assurance it can be pumped through nozzles and 3D printed with requisite robots on site.<\/p>\n<p>Murray, who specializes in concrete, will assist with analyzing the composition of the concrete as well as large-scale testing of experimental forms.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eaeaea7a;padding: 15px 30px;align-items: center;border-radius: 4px;margin-top: 1em;margin-bottom: 1em\">\n<div style=\"flex: 1;padding-right: 30px\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 14px\">Manufacturing on Demand<\/h4>\n<div>Fast turnaround, low cost, comprehensive optimized strategy\u2026 FacFox is your one-stop partner for product manufacturing!\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" style=\"background-color: #0baee8;color: white;padding: 10px 20px;border-radius: 4px\"><i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fa-fw auxicon auxicon-cloud-upload\"><\/i> Get Quote<\/a><\/div>\n<p>Zhou, the director of the Advanced Manufacturing, Modeling, and Materials Lab at the University of Arkansas, is also the co-founder of AMBOTS, a local st<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>up company developing \u2018swarm manufacturing technology\u2019.
