On the onset of slip at adhesive elastic interfaces Open
The transition from static to dynamic friction when an elastic body is slid over another is now known to result from the motion of interface rupture fronts. These fronts may be either crack-like or pulse-like, with the latter involving rea…

Synthetic space bricks from lunar and martian regolith via sintering Open
The prospect of establishing extra-terrestrial habitats using in situ resource utilization (ISRU) constitutes a long-term goal of multiple space agencies around the world. In this work, we investigate sintering as a potential route for mak…

Design of a low-velocity impact framework for evaluating space-grade materials Open
Material deformation and failure under impact loading is a subject of active investigation in space science and often requires very specialized equipment for testing. In this work, we present the design, operational analysis and applicatio…

Porosity governs failure in bioconsolidated space bricks Open
Understanding the mechanical response and failure of consolidated extra-terrestrial soils requires analyses of the interactions between propagating cracks the material's inherent pore structure. In this work, we investigate the fracture be…
