Design of a Lunar Surface Structure. II: Seismic Structural Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: During the Apollo missions, seismic events with estimated body wave magnitudes of 5.5 were observed. Whereas the terrestrial equivalent can cause moderate to severe damage to buildings, the effects on a lunar structure is ...
Design of a Lunar Surface Structure. I: Design Configuration and Thermal Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An igloo-shaped magnesium structure, supported on a sintered regolith, covered by sandbags of regolith shielding, and made using rapid manufacturing technologies is proposed as a potential design of a lunar structure. Also, ...
