This work presents an experimental and numerical study to analyze the crack filling process in encapsulation-based self-healing concrete. A specimen consisting of two small concrete blocks has been designed containing capsules filled with a polyurethane-based healing agent. This design enables to control the capsule breakage and release of healing agent. Two setups are studied: (i) a two-capsule system, where one capsule contains the pre-polymer fluid and the other contains a water-based accelerator component, and (ii) a single capsule system with only the pre-polymer fluid. The amount of healing agent released in the crack is visualized using micro Computed Tomography scanning. Tensile mechanical tests are performed to evaluate the strength contribution of the cured healing agent. A computational fluid dynamics model has been developed to understand how the healing agent spreads in the crack as a function of the crack width. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
