An earth pole-sitter using hybrid propulsion [PDF]
In this paper we investigate optimal pole-sitter orbits using hybrid solar sail and solar electric propulsion (SEP). A pole-sitter is a spacecraft that is constantly above one of the Earth's poles, by means of a continuous thrust.

Developments in Marine Hybrid Propulsion
The shipping sector is becoming increasingly aware of global environmental impact of ships and is forced, by international legislation, to gradually reduce its emissions. International conventions (IMO) and energy efficiency standards set challenges to shipping sector, to ship owners and ship designers, to offer propulsion concepts which will ...
