Continuous Planetary Polar Observation from Hybrid Pole-Sitters at Venus, Earth, and Mars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A pole-sitter is a satellite that is stationed along the polar axis of the Earth, or any other planet, to generate a continuous, hemispherical view of the planet’s polar regions.

Impact of propulsion system R and D on electric vehicle performance and cost [PDF]

open access: yes
The efficiency, weight, and manufacturing cost of the propulsion subsystem (motor, motor controller, transmission, and differential, but excluding the battery) are major factors in the purchase price and cost of ownership of a traffic-compatible electric
