The invention discloses magnetic-sensitive simulated star
loam and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to simulated star soil and a preparation method thereof in the field of deep space
geotechnical engineering. The magnetic-sensitive simulated star soil is prepared from the following components in parts by
mass: 100 parts of a cementing agent, 100 to 300 parts of a magnetic admixture, 5 parts of an additive and 40 to 60 parts of de-ionized water. During preparation, the
mass ratio of the de-ionized water to the cementing agent is controlled to be (5:2) to (5:3), the
mass ratio of the cementing agent to the magnetic admixture is (1:1) to (1:3), and the preparation comprises steps of mixing and stirring, maintenance, hardening and
granulation. By the material, the particulate characteristic, the fine-grained characteristic and the intergranular weak
gravitational force characteristic of in-situ star
loam can be effectively simulated. The specific characteristics are as follows: the particle size is adjustable in 0.1 and 100mm; the intergranular weak
gravitational force is 0.1 to 3kPa, and can be regulated and controlled through the
mass ratio of the cementing agent to the magnetic admixture and the
porosity; an unconventional
gravitational field can be simulated in combination with a specific external
magnetic field, and the strength can be regulated and controlled throughthe
mass ratio of the cementing agent to the magnetic admixture and a
magnetic field gradient value.
