Patent
Landing gear method and apparatus for braking and maneuvering
TL;DR: In this paper, a wheel hub motor/generator was used as a generator to provide motive power to the aircraft wheels for taxiing and ground maneuvers of the aircraft, where the energy generated upon landing was dissipated through a resistor and/or stored for later use in providing a source for motive power.

Patent
Method and device for braking and manoeuvring
TL;DR: In this article, an aircraft wheel motorized braking system was proposed to increase the aircraft stability by applying electric current to stator, generating axial magnetic flux and implementing aircraft wheel motors.
Patent
Landing gear assembly for aircraft
TL;DR: A wheel hub motor/generator can provide motive force to the wheel when electrical power is applied, which may be applied prior to touch-down thus decreasing the difference in relative velocities of the tire radial velocity with that of the relative velocity of the runway thus greatly reducing the sliding friction wear of said tire.
