(DSM) has been provided in (Li, 2023). The DSM can identify the interfaces in the lunar habitat

               system that are required based on pertinent variables and procedures at the interface. In the
               current study, an initial activity-based DSM is built by breaking down the lunar habitat design

               process. To elucidate the informational interactions among the four dimensions of energy,
               space, materials, and information, a statistical analysis is conducted on each design task and its

               corresponding intensity. The design process is optimized by the use of a sequencing algorithm.

               Ultimately, four phases pre-planning, spatial design, environmental design, and optimization
                      Thesis Report V-SPARC VIT
               are used to separate the twenty design tasks of the lunar habitat design. In order to increase

               design efficiency, related disciplines should collaborate during the design process based on the
               optimization results. They should also use the optimized task coupling connection to construct

               the requirement and design models in a systematic way.




               The  Alcatel  Alenia  Space  "Lunar  Exploration  Architecture"  study  (Gruber,  2007)  for  the
               European  Space  Agency  included  the  study  "Lunar  exploration  architecture—deployable

               structures for a lunar base." The study's objectives were to explore bionic ideas that may be
               used to deployable structures and to analyze the results in order to provide suggestions for

               potential implementation. The goal of the study was to identify novel deployment alternatives.

               Using models, sketches, and visualizations, possible geometries were created and investigated
               by applying folding/unfolding principles found in nature. For these conceptual approaches, the

               utilization  of  materials,  joints  between  structural  elements,  and  construction  details  were
               examined.  To  determine  the  technical  and  environmental  parameters  that  acted  as  design

               drivers,  reference  scenarios  were  employed.  Six  designs  were  selected  after  mechanical

               problems and deployment process research were taken into consideration.


               Space scientists were given a $5 billion development budget in 2014 and asked to come up
               with plans that would allow ten people to live on the moon for a year by the year 2022. This

               was to be carried out in a way that would reduce the need for replenishing Earthly consumables

               and result in a permanent lunar settlement of one hundred individuals in ten years. Life support
               consumables must be recycled rather than continuously supplied from Earth in order to support

               small communities on the Moon within this budget (Harper, 2016). The International Space
               Station (ISS) offers evidence of the current availability of these technologies. Physicochemical

               regeneration of air and water on the International Space Station (ISS) lowers the resupply of
                                                            6
