Compaction trial on lunar regolith simulant

NASA’s Artemis program involves inhabiting the Moon’s south pole, which consists of lunar highlands regolith. For successful long-term habitation on the Moon, resilient infrastructure built on lunar regolith will be required. Therefore, it will be essential that the geotechnical characteristics of lunar regolith are quantified and improved, where ...

Effects of wheel width on running performance of four-wheeled small lunar rover

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu
As future lunar habitation plans progress, the importance of landing-based exploration is increasing. Small lunar rovers are considered effective for such missions due to their low deployment risk and cost. However, these rovers are prone to slippage and

Effect of Soil Type on Running Performance of Small Lunar Rover

Aerospace
It is very easy for a small lunar rover to slip on the regolith of the lunar surface and become stuck. Previous studies have quantitatively evaluated the effects of wheel geometry, such as elliptical or eccentric wheels, on the performance of a rover ...

Recovery of Al and Si from lunar regolith by low temperature electrochemical deposition from ethaline

Zaštita Materijala
In this study, the dissolution and electrochemical recovery of metals from regolith simulant using a choline chloride-based deep eutectic solvent (DES) and electrochemical recovery of metals from thus prepared electrolyte were investigated. For the first

Development and characterization of a regional lunar soil simulant for emirates lunar missions

International Journal of Mining Science and Technology
Lunar soil simulants (LSS) have been pivotal in the success of past and current lunar missions. They have enhanced the design of lander and rover wheels through interaction studies on the lunar testbed under simulated environmental conditions.
