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.

Microbial induced calcite precipitation can consolidate martian and lunar regolith simulants
PLoS ONE, 2022 We demonstrate that Microbial Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP) can be utilized for creation of consolidates of Martian Simulant Soil (MSS) and Lunar Simulant Soil (LSS) in the form of a ‘brick’.

Measurement of Simulated Lunar Soil Information Using Rutting Images [PDF]
IEEE Access, 2020 Research on lunar soil has great value, and soil hardness is one of the essential parameters to be measured. Currently, the existing method involves contact measurement using special instruments. To reduce the self-weight and increase the scientific payloads of lunar rovers, a reanalysis of the data obtained from existing sensors provides a great ...

Geopolymers from lunar and Martian soil simulants [PDF]
Advances in Space Research, 2017 Abstract This work discusses the geopolymerization of lunar dust simulant JSC LUNAR-1A and Martian dust simulant JSC MARS-1A. The geopolymerization of JSC LUNAR-1A occurs easily and produces a hard, rock-like, material. The geopolymerization of JSC MARS-1A requires milling to reduce the particle size.
