Thermal Regeneration of Spent Lithium Hydroxide
Exploration of planetary surfaces will require portable life-support systems to provide a continuous supply of breathable air. These systems will need to be regenerable in order to support...
Utilization of Liquid Carbon Dioxide for Planetary Exploration
The major component of the atmosphere of Venus and Mars is carbon dioxide CO2. This proposal is to use this carbon dioxide for planetary exploration...
Carbon Formation Theory for Space Oxygen Processes
Production of oxygen from the Martian atmosphere or lunar soil and the recovery of oxygen in manned space environments may include carbon formation from CO as a unit process. Thermodynamic...
Optical Waveguide Solar Energy System for Lunar Material Processing
This paper summarizes a study of the optical waveguide (OW) solar energy system for lunar material processing. In the OW solar energy system, solar radiation is collected by the concentrator...
Impulsive Punching of Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Slabs
The behavior of FRC slabs reinforced with polymeric fibers (polyacrylonitrile fibers PAN) and subjected to impulsive punching is analyzed here in order to clarify to what extent the fibers...
Local Buckling of Pultruded FRP Beams: Theory and Experiment
A continuing experimental and theoretical investigation of the local compression flange buckling of commercially produced pultruded fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) beams is briefly described...
Dynamic Response of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete
Extensive research has been done on the static properties of steel fiber reinforced concrete, but very little on the dynamic properties. A total of 20 beams was tested. The steel fiber...
Testing of Concrete Curtain Wall Panels Reinforced with FRP Grids
The objective of this paper is to evaluate the suitability of Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) grids for use as a structural; reinforcement in concrete curtain wall panels. This paper describes...
