Abstract
Despite the long history of cement and concrete, there are still large gaps in fundamental knowledge of their properties development. The dire need for improved cementitious repair materials, requires a revolution in the way they are formulated and tested. Here we suggest an autonomous platform that could be leveraged to rapidly formulate and test novel cement patch materials.
