On The Development of an ISRU-Based Calcium Sulfo-Aluminate (CSA) Concrete for 3-D Printed and Cast Lunar Surface Infrastructure Applications
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
NASA’s Artemis program will see the return of man to the Moon to test various technologies that will be used to establish a sustained human presence on the Lunar surface. In addition, these missions will serve as precursors for subsequent expeditions to Mars. Given the remote, perilous, and unhospitable conditions in extraterrestrial environments, supporting infrastructures such as launching and landing pads (LLP), blast shields, research labs, habitats, roads, hangars, and radiation shielding for both humans and surface-based nuclear reactors are needed to protect astronauts working or living on the Lunar surface. Because of the estimated $1.2M/kg launch cost to place material from Earth on the Lunar surface, the Moon to Mars Planetary Autonomous Construction Technology (MMPACT) project at NASA/MSFC is focused on the development of these lunar ISRU-based surface infrastructure materials and construction processes. On Earth, full-scale additive construction is a promising large-scale robotic technique that has been used for realizing civil infrastructure. Compared to traditional construction which inherently relies on laborious manual efforts, additive construction offers an accelerated, automated, cost-effective, safe, and lean construction method for building structures with customized designs and without the need for formwork. Although additive construction was originally envisioned for terrestrial applications, it has a huge potential for space construction as well considering the safety concerns related to the harsh environmental conditions and the need for robotic construction methods. To this goal, a suitable printing material locally sourced on the Moon and Mars is desired to avoid the cost and payload constraints related to transporting materials from Earth. Portland cement concrete (PCC) is commonly used as the printing material for additive construction on Earth due to its relatively low cost and wide availability. However, beyond Earth, PCC can be difficult to obtain due to the scarcity of its ingredients and its energy-intensive manufacturing processes. Calcium Sulfo-Aluminate (CSA) concrete presents an ISRU-derived alternative that has shown good mechanical performance in terrestrial applications and during testing for possible planetary applications as well, especially as demonstrated in 3D printing processes. In this paper, we will identify the primary components of CSA cement, how they can all be separated and isolated from the lunar regolith, and how they can be re-formulated as a binder to mix with regolith and water to form a lunar concrete. We will also describe work performed to optimize a recipe for CSA concrete to maximize its use in planetary 3D printing as well as lunar pre-cast concrete applications and characterize mechanical and thermal properties of CSA concrete as a function of cure pressure. Lastly, we will recommend applications and constraints for the use of CSA concrete on planetary surfaces and recommended future work to address these constraints.

Prédiction machine sur la base complète
Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
