  4. 3. Analyzing Synthetic Spider Silk-based Diffraction Grids for the Sunshade Project

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Johanna D'Ciofalo Khodaverdian; Amira Karlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Sunshade project; Diffraction grating; Artificial spider silk; Climate change; Geoengineering;

    Abstract : To mitigate climate change a proposed space-based geoengineering solutionis to screen off solar irradiance by placing a membrane in between the Earthand the Sun. The feasibility of such a project largely depends on minimizingthe mass of the shading screen and as an extension to the Sunshade projectthis thesis investigated how such a low-mass membrane could be designed.
