    Abstract: An assembly of a central aircraft fuselage section includes a longitudinal master wall for fixing of two aircraft air foil boxes. The method includes providing a trolley that can be moved on the ground, including a supporting structure in a station, supplying the station with the master wall, installing and mechanically immobilizing the master wall at a reference position on the supporting structure of the trolley, supplying the station with a transverse wall, installing and mechanically immobilizing this transverse wall at a reference position situated at a rectilinear edge upstream or downstream of the master wall, fixing the transverse wall to the master wall, and moving the trolley to another station.

    Abstract: Method and system for optimizing the arrangement of a set of aircraft parts on a plate. The system includes a selection module which selects, from a set of data on the material of the set of parts and a set of geometric data associated with the set of parts, part grouping criteria including at least one optimized plate thickness value, an optimization module for optimizing the arrangement of the set of parts on a plate as a function of the part grouping criteria, cutting criteria and optimization criteria and a transmission module generating and transmitting, to a user system, optimization data representative of the optimization of the arrangement of the set of parts. The system makes it possible to take account of the parameters linked to the dimensions of the plate to optimize the arrangement of the set of parts.

    Abstract: An aircraft propulsion plant including an electric motor having a rotor and a stator mechanically linked to a base which can be mounted at the rear of an aircraft fuselage, a fan rotated by the rotor, a set of fixed blades located downstream of the fan, and a nacelle comprising an outer casing and a fan casing surrounding the fan and the set of fixed blades. The nacelle is mechanically linked to the base through the set of fixed blades. This configuration enables a cooling circuit to be formed for enabling the heat produced by the electric motor at the location of the stator to be evacuated towards the fixed blades and the nacelle where it is dissipated. Furthermore, this heat may be used for the de-icing of the nacelle lip.

    Abstract: A method for managing unbalanced thrusts caused by engine failures in an aircraft provided with a distributed propulsion system, the distributed propulsion system including 2N powertrains (PTi), with N a strictly positive integer and i an integer lying between 1 and 2N inclusive, distributed symmetrically in relation to a plane of symmetry of the aircraft, according to which the power of at least one powertrain belonging to a first side of the plane of symmetry is reduced when a failure occurs in a powertrain belonging to the opposite side, such that the sum of the moments of the thrusts generated by the powertrains in relation to the center of gravity of the aircraft is nil, to within regulatory tolerances.

    Abstract: A nacelle includes a fixed structure supporting a fixed cowl and a movable cowl, the movable cowl being movable translationally between a closing position and an opening position. A blocker door is movably mounted rotationally on the nacelle between a closed position and an open position. The nacelle includes a drive mechanism of the blocker door and of the movable cowl between the closed/closing position and the open/opening position of the blocker door/movable cowl, respectively, and vice versa, the drive mechanism includes at least one actuator fixed, to the fixed structure of the nacelle and, to a fitting fixed to the movable cowl. The drive mechanism includes, for each actuator, a flexible member having a first end fixed to the fixed structure of the nacelle and a second end fixed to the fitting.
