Advanced electric propulsion system concept for electric vehicles. Addendum 1: Voltage considerations
The two electric vehicle propulsion systems that best met cost and performance goals were examined to assess the effect of battery pack voltage on system performance and cost. A voltage range of 54 to 540 V was considered for a typical battery pack capacity of 24 k W-hr. The highest battery specific energy (W-hr/kg) and the lowest cost (0.057/km and for the flywheel system was $0.037/km

Keck Imaging of the Globular Cluster Systems in the Early--type Galaxies NGC 1052 and NGC 7332
The presence of two globular cluster subpopulations in early-type galaxies is
now the norm rather than the exception. Here we present two more examples for
which the host galaxy appears to have undergone a recent merger. Using
multi-colour Keck imaging of NGC 1052 and NGC 7332 we find evidence for a
bimodal globular cluster colour distribution in both galaxies, with roughly
equal numbers of blue and red globular clusters. The blue ones have similar
colours to those in the Milky Way halo and are thus probably very old and
metal-poor. If the red GC subpopulations are at least solar metallicity, then
stellar population models indicate young ages. We discuss the origin of
globular clusters within the framework of formation models. We conclude that
recent merger events in these two galaxies have had little effect on their
overall GC systems. We also derive globular cluster density profiles, global
specific frequencies and in the case of NGC 1052, radial colour gradients and
azimuthal distribution. In general these globular cluster properties are normal
for early-type galaxies.Comment: 11 pages, Latex, 15 figures, 2 tables, accepted by MNRA
“It gave me a much more personal connection”: Student generated podcasting and assessment in teacher education
This paper reports on a qualitative case study of an online initial teacher education class in New Zealand, exploring the potential of student-generated podcasts as a form of interactive formative assessment. Findings from interviews with teaching staff indicate that podcasting was useful for supporting multimodal learning valuing student voice and reflections. Podcasting enhanced the affective and relational connections in the online class, and empowered students to develop technical skills and confidence relevant in their teaching careers. As such, this study positions educators as future makers and as leaders in a climate of change. We suggest implications for student-generated podcasts in similar contexts
