CobraPrint - a Grasshopper plug-in for 3D concrete printing numerical simulation in Abaqus

A Grasshopper plug-in that allows for the creation of finite element models without any prior knowledge of numerical modelling being required. In contrast to VoxelPrint, a structured mesh is generated by sweeping a cross-section of the printed concrete layer along the print path. The plug-in was evaluated and validated based on experimental and numerical results from literature. The main advantage of CobraPrint is the possibility to add contact-based interactions between layers. Also, a dynami
