Comparison of Aero-Propulsive Performance Predictions for Distributed Propulsion Configurations [PDF]
55th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting, 2017 NASA's X-57 "Maxwell" flight demonstrator incorporates distributed electric propulsion technologies in a design that will achieve a significant reduction in energy used in cruise flight. A substantial portion of these energy savings come from beneficial aerodynamic-propulsion interaction.

Propulsion of a Molecular Machine by Asymmetric Distribution of Reaction Products [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2005 A simple model for the reaction-driven propulsion of a small device is proposed as a model for (part of) a molecular machine in aqueous media. Motion of the device is driven by an asymmetric distribution of reaction products. The propulsive velocity of the device is calculated as well as the scale of the velocity fluctuations.
