    Abstract: An aerodynamic profile including a skin defining the outer surface of the aerodynamic profile, a leading edge, a trailing edge and a central portion representing at least 50% of the chord of the profile. The profile includes a hollow core of composite material reinforced with a textile having unidirectional fibers. The hollow core has, in cross section, an oblong shape that is rounded, in particular at each of its ends. The skin bears against the hollow core over the length of the central portion of the aerodynamic profile, both on the pressure side and on the suction side of the profile. The reinforcement with a textile having unidirectional fibers permits an ideal orientation of reinforcing fibers in order to optimize mechanical properties in certain directions. The shape of the hollow core, elongate along the chord of the profile and rounded, lends it great resistance to deformation.

    Abstract: A thrust reverser system includes a thrust reversal cascade and a reverser door which are accommodated in a housing situated outside a secondary flow duct. The system also includes connection parts the presence of which combined with the action of the actuator gives rise simultaneously to: displacement rearwards of the cascade in the direction of a nacelle opening, cleared by a nacelle cowling entrained rearwards together with the cascade; and a combined movement of the reverser door relative to the cascade, leading to displacement of the front end of the door rearwards along the cascade, and to pivoting of this door, such as to give rise to plunging of its rear end into the secondary flow duct.

    Abstract: A thrust reverser system includes two thrust reversal cascades, of which the first cascade is entrained by an actuator, and which are configured to adopt a retracted position in which they are housed in a space located outside the duct. The action of the actuator brings about: rearward displacement of the first cascade in the direction of a nacelle opening; and during part of the rearward displacement of the second cascade, simultaneous pivoting of this second cascade under the action of a control lever, the interaction of which with a fixed guide rail forces the front end of the lever to move radially inwards while the lever is entrained rearwards by the second cascade.

    Abstract: A portable measuring system including an electronic acquisition device, at least one sensor linked to the acquisition device, and a power supply module. The power supply module includes at least one electric torus to be mounted on electrical wiring in order to generate a current by induction, and an electric power management device that delivers a voltage-stabilized current in order to power the acquisition device. An assembly includes an external data centralizer. Such a system or assembly is easy to install, has potentially unlimited autonomy, and is particularly well suited to use in an aircraft.

    Abstract: A method for transmitting flight parameters from a leading aircraft (L) to at least one intruding aircraft (I), wherein, the transmission is effected by a collision avoidance system of TCAS type. The transponder of the leading aircraft (L) is configured to measure the spectrum of an interrogation signal received from the intruding aircraft (I) and to compare the power of the spectrum to a threshold power. If the power of the interrogation signal is greater than or equal to the threshold power, then the intruding aircraft (I) is eligible to receive flight parameters from the leading aircraft to be able to compute the position of the centres or the force of circulation of wake vortexes (14L, 15L) generated by the leading aircraft (L). The exchange of flight parameters from the leading aircraft only to eligible intruding aircraft makes it possible to not exceed the maximum automated communication bandwidth capacity.
