      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.

      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 is an Associate Professor at the American University of the Middle East. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Adelaide in Australia in the field of Mechanical Engineering. His research mainly focuses on renewable energy, FSI problems, and CFD analysis. He is the author/co-author of several high-ranking journals articles in Ocean Engineering, Physics of Fluids, and Journal of Tribology (ASME), among others. 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.
