Material aspects of sintering of EAC-1A lunar regolith simulant [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
Future lunar exploration will be based on in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) techniques. The most abundant raw material on the Moon is lunar regolith, which, however, is very scarce on Earth, making the study of simulants a necessity.

Mechanical fracture properties of concrete with lunar aggregate simulant [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2020
From the volumetric point of view, aggregate is the most important ingredient in any kind of concrete. It is impossible to use raw soil instead of aggregate to produce concrete.

Laser melting manufacturing of large elements of lunar regolith simulant for paving on the Moon

Scientific Reports, 2023
The next steps for the expansion of the human presence in the solar system will be taken on the Moon. However, due to the low lunar gravity, the suspended dust generated when lunar rovers move across the lunar soil is a significant risk for lunar ...

Lunar Simulation in the Lunar Dust Adhesion Bell Jar [PDF]

45th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit, 2007
The Lunar Dust Adhesion Bell Jar has been assembled at the NASA Glenn Research Center to provide a high fidelity lunar simulation facility to test the interactions of lunar dust and lunar dust simulant with candidate aerospace materials and coatings. It has a sophisticated design which enables it to treat dust in a way that will remove adsorbed gases ...

Simulation of the Lunar Regolith and Lunar-Penetrating Radar Data Processing

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2018
Lunar-penetrating radar (LPR) was conducted by the “Yutu” rover of China's Chang-E 3 lunar mission to study the shallow subsurface of the Moon. Both regolith modeling and numerical simulation can provide a reliable reference for data processing of the Moon.

LUNAR REGOLITH SIMULATION AT MICROWAVES

Journal of Radio Electronics, 2023
А remote measurement of the lunar regolith temperature from a lander is expected in the near future. A special bench for experimental testing of the experiment details has been created. The test bench simulates the measurement of the temperature of the lunar regolith at depths down to 1 m.
