Antarctica rover design and optimization for limited power consumption

The design process of the new locomotion platform called K11 aims at obtaining a rover capable of traveling thousands of kilometers at 1 m/s in the harsh environment of Antarctica during summer and carrying a 100 kg payload. A model including the drive-train power consumption and masses is used to o...
