    Abstract: A method for inspecting an object by ultrasound transmission, including sweeping an ultrasound beam over a reference part that has the same geometry as the object to be inspected, and measuring the amplitude transmitted through the part to obtain a mapping thereof. The ultrasound beam is amplified with a reference gain. The method further includes determining gain corrections to be added to the reference gain at certain points during the sweeping of the reference part to obtain an ultrasound beam amplitude transmitted through the part which is constant at each point of the mapping, and sweeping an ultrasound beam over the object to be inspected and measuring the transmitted amplitude. The gain applied to the various points during the sweeping corresponds to the reference gain corrected on the basis of said corrections.

    Abstract: A fiber structure includes a blank portion formed as a single part by three-dimensional weaving between a first plurality of yarn layers and a second plurality of yarn layers, the blank portion corresponding to all or part of a fiber reinforcement preform for a part made of composite material. Outside the blank portion, the fiber structure includes one or more two-dimensional fabric layers, each two-dimensional fabric layer grouping together the yarns of a single layer belonging to at least the first plurality of yarn layers and situated outside the blank portion.

    Abstract: A device for circulation of air for a turbomachine, the device including an inlet provided to receive incident airflow, air circulation ducts connected to the inlet, a central part including side walls, peripheral walls arranged at a distance from the central part, so as to form the air circulation ducts, each duct being arranged between one of the side walls of the central part and one of the peripheral walls, each peripheral wall including an upstream end portion delimiting with one of the side walls an inlet orifice of one of the ducts and a downstream end portion delimiting with one of the side walls an outlet orifice of one of the ducts, at least one member mobile in translation relative to the peripheral walls, the at least one mobile member being formed in the central part and arranged so that its displacement varies a section of each of the inlet orifices and a section of at least one of the outlet orifices.

    Abstract: A method of determining a duration of a movement of a starter air valve of a turbine engine, the valve for regulating the passage of a flow of pressurized air from upstream to the downstream of pipework, where the downstream side is connected to a pneumatic starter of the turbine engine, the method including determining an instant of initiation and an instant of completion of a movement of the valve during a movement phase of the valve, determining the duration of the movement of the valve, by subtracting the instant of initiation from the instant of completion, calculating a difference between the determined duration of the movement and a theoretical value of the duration.
