Malika Essadouni has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9102404
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling the deceleration on the ground of a vehicle. The method obtains, from the crew of the vehicle or from an outside operator, parameters relating to its current position and its current speed. Then it determines a reference position and speed of the vehicle, the reference position being a theoretical position to be reached by the vehicle. Finally it determines, from indicated parameters and from reference parameters, a deceleration command with a view to ending up at a target position at a preselected speed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8706326
    Abstract: Method and device for aiding the piloting of an airplane during a landing phase for ensuring, during rollout on a landing runway, that in the nominal case the airplane will stop level with a selected exit, while guaranteeing that in the case of a fault the airplane will stop before the end of the runway.

  • Patent number: 8231082
    Abstract: Disclosed is an aircraft that comprises a fuselage, a left wing and a right wing opposite one another with respect to said fuselage and each enclosing at least one fuel tank. The aircraft further includes a control device that controls transfer of fuel from a tank on one wing to a tank on another wing, and an automatic pilot that detects a roll-wise inclination of the aircraft as a result of lateral dissymmetry. The automatic pilot is linked to the control device such that the automatic pilot controls the control device to transfer the fuel only at a condition of rectilinear and uniform cruising flight of the aircraft.

  • Publication number: 20090272851
    Abstract: Method and device for correcting the lateral dissymmetry of an aircraft. According to the invention, when the aircraft is in rectilnear and uniform cruising flight, fuel is transferred from one of the wings (3G, 3D) to the other under the control of the automatic pilot.
