A proposal of lunar long duration method (Fabrication of lunar environment simulator and experimental validation)

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014
A lunar long duration method which utilizes a characteristic of a very low thermal conductivity of lunar regolith has been proposed. The principle of this method is to put heater in desired depth of the regolith and heat up the regolith layer during ...

Numerical Simulations of the Lunar Penetrating Radar and Investigations of the Geological Structures of the Lunar Regolith Layer at the Chang’E 3 Landing Site

open access: yesInternational Journal of Antennas and Propagation, 2017
In the process of lunar exploration, and specifically when studying lunar surface structure and thickness, the established lunar regolith model is usually a uniform and ideal structural model, which is not well-suited to describe the real structure of ...

Shear Properties of Lunar Regolith Simulants

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2014
AbstractThe accuracy of lunar regolith simulants for lunar drilling and sampling is mainly based on their particle shape and grain size distribution. To determine the grain-size distribution and shear strength parameters, grain-size distribution tests and conventional tri-axial compression experiments were conducted on the lunar regolith simulants.

Regolith history of lunar meteorites [PDF]

open access: yesMeteoritics & Planetary Science, 2005
The regolith evolution of the lunar meteorites Dhofar (Dho) 081, Northwest Africa (NWA) 032, NWA 482, NWA 773, Sayh al Uhaymir (SaU) 169, and Yamato (Y-) 981031 was investigated by measuring the light noble gases He, Ne, and Ar. The presence of trapped solar neon in Dho 081, NWA 773, and Y-981031 indicates an exposure at the lunar surface. A neon three-

Investigation of the melting behavior of laser-melted lunar regolith simulant for in-situ construction

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology
Additive manufacturing of lunar regolith is one of the most promising methods for lunar surface construction. In order to obtain excellent formability of lunar regolith, the interaction between laser and lunar regolith has to be studied in detail.
