Abstract:
A resin film configured to hold a conductive metallic track against a panel. The resin film partially covers the conductive metallic track, such that the conductive metallic track has at least one region which does not have the resin film, so as to allow an electrical connection by contact. Thus, in the context of assembly on a panel, the metallic track incorporated between the panel and the resin film is protected, thus rendering this technical solution particularly robust. Furthermore, the resin film electrically insulates the metallic track from surrounding elements, and the regions which do not have resin film allow an electrical connection by contact.
Abstract:
A method and device for inspecting the structural damage on the skin of an aircraft after a lightning strike, the skin has marks derived from the lightning strike, wherein the marks represent a Visual Damage (VD) and a Structural Damage (SD). The method includes for every mark: measuring the area of paint that has been removed by the lightning strike, and comparing the measured area with an area threshold value, wherein the threshold value is related to the Structural Damage (SD) of every mark.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a panel made of composite material incorporating a lightning protection arrangement which comprises strips with a conductive layer. The method comprises a step of laying the strips in an automated manner, the strips having a width of less than 20 mm and being distributed in a first set of mutually parallel strips that are laid in a first laying direction and a second set of mutually parallel strips that are laid in a second laying direction that intersects the first laying direction. A panel made of composite material manufactured by way of this method is also disclosed.
