Rheological Lunar Regolith Simulants
IAF Space Exploration SymposiumRegolith simulants are essential for space research and technology development. Yet, their physical properties often differ from those of true planetary soil, particularly when compared to regolith properties in-situ, that experience notably reduced gravity.
