Building Habitats on the Moon: Engineering Approaches to Lunar Settlements (Springer Praxis Books)

Designing a habitat for the lunar surface? You will need toÂ know more than structural engineering. There are the effectsÂ of meteoroids, radiation, and low gravity. Then there are theÂ psychological and psychosocial aspects of living in close quarters,Â in a dangerous environment, far away from home. All these must beÂ considered when the habitat is sized, materials specified, and structureÂ designed.

This book provides an overview of various concepts for lunar habitatsÂ and structural designs and characterizes the lunar environment - theÂ technical and the nontechnical. The designs take into considerationÂ psychological comfort, structural strength against seismic and thermalÂ activity, as well as internal pressurization and 1/6 g. Also discussed areÂ micrometeoroid modeling, risk and redundancy as well as probabilityÂ and reliability, with an introduction to analytical tools that can beÂ useful in modeling uncertainties.
