Materials and Textile Architecture Analyses for Mechanical Counter-Pressure Space Suits using Active Materials
Mechanical counter-pressure (MCP) space suits have the potential to improve the mobility of astronauts as they conduct planetary exploration activities. MCP suits differ from traditional gas-pressurized space suits by applying surface pressure to the wearer using tight-fitting materials rather than...
