Structure of the Aresam-in 3D!

I experimented a bit on Open Office and was able to create the design successfully. Here it is...

thanks !

i am greatly impressed by the enthusiasm shown by all of you.
if this continues success is definite.
but please all you of also read what is posted.
let me again remind you that if we make it to the
top 25 team in the world we would be flying to
Jonson Space Centre , Houston !..
meeting world's finest space scientists.






AND JUST ONE CRTITERIA
TO WORK HARD AND SUBMIT A
PROJECT THAT HAS NO MATCH !

so buck up and put your thinking caps on.

Important Calculations and structure-Sibesh Kar

We'll have to calculate the following:-
1. Centrifugal force acting on the inner surface of the settlement where the residents are residing.Force should be such that acceleration is always 9.8 m/s^2.
Centrifugal Force = Mass * Acceleration = Mass * 9.8 m/s^2

Click this to calculate centripetal force(note- centrifugal force is negative centripetal force)

2. Mass of the outer ring if Approx 21000 people are living in it.(21000 * Average weight of a man)+ extras
3. Radius of The Torus if it has to produce g and accommodate 21000 people in 5 square km of surface.
(so that circumference * diameter of cross-section is equal to 5 sq.km and the required acceleration for g is also reached)
4. Velocity with which it has to rotate, in order to produce g in relation to Radius.


We'll have to do this before anything else but the problem is that we have a lot of variables.We'll have to do it by trial and error so that each variable fits in everywhere and it is also economically viable(making the radius huge and the circular velocity less will be a loss because the more the radius the more the material needed.....)

We'll have to do this before anything else. To view the basic structure click this

Protection from radiations - READ THE WHOLE THING

We can use magnetosoheres to protect the space city from radiations

The existence of harmful radiation in space is one of the most significant obstacles to long stays in space. Some of this is in the form of very high energy particles arriving from deep space, but the greater concern, by virtue of its much larger flux, is the solar wind emitted continuously by the Sun. This magnetized plasma contains protons and alpha particles  that can break up DNA and cause cancer.
So, we can try to generate a magnetized bubble of plasma (magnetosphere) surrounding the city created by the  magnetic field of the station.
These would separate out the electrons and protons of the solar wind, generating a separation of charge in space that would deflect these particles away from the spacecity
It involves injecting a supersonic plasma into a 1.5 m long vacuum vessel lined with magnetic coils, with a target magnet placed at the far end of the vessel. Using both optical imaging and an electromagnetic probe, Bamford’s team (who have carried out the experiment) showed that the target magnet deflected the plasma such that the volume of space surrounding the magnet was almost entirely free of plasma particles
To generate a bubble of  100–200 m across a magnet of about 1 Tesla would be required.

SO ITS PRACTICAL. READ IT AND COMMENT ASAP

Stuff from the Mars Wiki

WATER(MARS)
The most recent mission to Mars was the NASA Phoenix Mars lander, which launched August 4, 2007 and arrived on the north polar region of Mars on May 25, 2008.[103] The lander has a robotic arm with a 2.5 m reach and capable of digging a metre into the Martian soil. The lander has a microscopic camera capable of resolving to one-thousandth the width of a human hair, and discovered a substance at its landing site on June 15, 2008, which was confirmed to be water ice on June 20.[104][105] The mission was declared concluded on November 10, 2008, after engineers were unable to contact the craft.
NUTRIENTS(MARS)
In June, 2008, the Phoenix Lander returned data showing Martian soil to be slightly alkaline and containing vital nutrients such as magnesium, sodium, potassium and chloride, all of which are necessary for living organisms to grow. Scientists compared the soil near Mars's north pole to that of backyard gardens on Earth, and concluded that it could be suitable for growth of plants such as asparagus.[23] However, in August, 2008, the Phoenix Lander conducted simple chemistry experiments, mixing water from Earth with Martian soil in an attempt to test its pH, and discovered traces of the salt perchlorate, while also confirming many scientists' theories that the Martian surface is considerably basic, measuring at 8.3. The presence of the perchlorate, if confirmed, would make Martian soil more exotic than previously believed.[24] Further testing is necessary to eliminate the possibility of the perchlorate readings being caused by terrestrial sources, which may have migrated from the spacecraft either into samples or the instrumentation.
PHOBOS(ONE OF THE MOONS)
Phobos has also been proposed as an early target for a manned mission to Mars,[48] since a landing on Phobos would be considerably less difficult (and hence, much less expensive) than a landing on the surface of Mars itself. A lander bound for Mars would need to be capable of atmospheric entry and subsequent in-situ return to orbit without any support facilities (a capacity which has never been attempted in a manned spacecraft), or would require the creation of support facilities in-situ (a "colony or bust" mission), while a lander intended for Phobos could be based on equipment designed for lunar and asteroid landings.
