Defining the geotechnical properties of Lunar simulant regolith
This paper dives into the importance of lunar regolith simulants and its role in building the urban future of the moon. By defining the geotechnical properties, we can predict how the simulants will react under loads, how they will interact with each other and their similarity to the real regolith.

Hi! My name is Freya, and I'll be doing my research on defining the geotechnical properties of Lunar simulant regolith so that when we begin to create high fidelity infrastructure replicas here on Earth ( whether that be a road, a building or a launchpad) we can predict how the surface will change based on these loads! Aside from all things space, I do a MEng in Engineering and Architectural design, with an interest in small space architecture (such as space habitation) and multifunctional/modularity within spaces. I'm also interested in Japanese architecture, spending my gap year living and working in Tokyo whilst also developing my Japanese to N3 intermediate (plus I love 7/11 and all the Konbini's haha).
