Beskrivning

Electrostatic Dust Mitigation and Manipulation Techniques for Planetary Dust explains how to control and remove dust in space due to the presence of a vacuum, abrasiveness of dust particles and electrostatic charge on particles. The book introduces innovative technologies that use electrostatic and di-electrophoretic forces to remove and transport small particles away from surfaces. In addition, it discusses how to resolve thermal control problems and reduce lung inhalation and eye irritation problems. The book includes two abrasive wear test devices that were designed to study the rate of volume wear for di?erent materials when subjected to lunar dust simulant of di?erent size ranges.

This will be an ideal resource for space system engineers, space exploration researchers, and advanced students and professionals in space engineering.

Provides a comprehensive background on lunar and Martian dust properties and challenges and compares currently available mitigation strategies
Highlights the problems from dust on various space systems and crew
Features discrete element models which were created and calibrated based on experimental results to study the capacity of the proposed technique for removing and cleaning dust in a planetary environment

Mer om författaren

Nima Gharib is a former Assistant Professor and McGill graduate. He has been a space enthusiast and studied dust mitigation techniques experimentally and numerically for years. He received an award from the Canadian Space Agency for his article on dust mitigation. He is now consulting on combining different numerical methods (CFD, FEM and DEM) to model and optimise multidisciplinary problems. Javad Farrokhi Derakhshandeh earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Adelaide, in South Australia. His Ph.D. project focused on harnessing hydropower energy from ocean and rivers using flow-induced vibration phenomenon. Currently, he has a position of associate professor at the American University of the Middle East (AUM), and he has made significant contributions to academia with many technical articles. Javad Farrokhi Derakhshandeh has published over 80 high-impact journal articles in leading publications such as Journal of Fluids and Structures, Ocean Engineering, ISA Transactions, International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, and Physics of Fluid. In addition to his journal contributions, he is the co-author of the textbook “Electrostatic Dust Mitigation and Manipulation Techniques for Planetary Dust and numerous peer-reviewed conference papers. Peter Radziszewski is a former Associate Professor in Engineering Design at McGill University who pursued R&D and teaching activities in design and mineral processing. Joining Metso in 2012 as VP Solutions Offering Development, his conceptual design efforts encompassed mineral processes equipment as well as wear and consumables. In 2021, he joined Rampart Detection Systems as VP Research and Innovation.
