    Abstract: Disclosed is a master model (1) defining a useful surface having a complex shape, including a set of juxtaposed frames (2a, 2b, 2c), each frame including a panel having a useful edge (8), the frames being disposed parallel and held rigidly connected with predefined spacings such that the useful edges of same form the useful surface. The panel of each frame includes a blind slot (10) forming an opening passing through the thickness, and the frames are rigidly connected by a spar (3, 3a, 3b, etc.) suitable for being inserted (6) in the lengthwise direction (L) of same into the slots and including transverse notches (11) for receiving and holding the frames, each notch being arranged to receive, by a relative transverse translational movement (7) of the spar relative to the frames, the part in question of the panel of each frame.

    Abstract: System including a dead weight and equipment on a trolling line released from and retrieved to a receiving structure of a vessel, the dead weight including a controllable element for blocking and unblocking the line, so as to immobilize the line relative to the dead weight in the blocked configuration, and to allow the line to run relative to the dead weight in the unblocked configuration; a first detection element for detecting whether or not or not the equipment has moved to a predefined distance from the dead weight; a control element configured, in case of an order to release: —in a step 2L, to release the equipment from the structure, —in a step 3L, when the first detection element detects the equipment has moved to the predefined distance, to then release the dead weight and control the blocking and unblocking element to shift to the blocked configuration.
