Abstract: An aerodynamic arrangement and method for providing a required air pressure coefficient at an area of location of an air port of an internal cooling system of a flying platform is described. The air port is selected from an air inlet port and an air outlet port, and arranged at a desired area in an external surface of the flying platform. The aerodynamic arrangement includes at least one airfoil-shaped body arranged on the external surface at the area of the air port for providing a negative pressure coefficient at the corresponding desired area on one side of the airfoil-shaped body and a positive pressure coefficient at the corresponding desired area on the other side of the airfoil-shaped body, when the airfoil-shaped body is oriented at a suitable angle of attack to an oncoming air flow.

Abstract: A slotted plate is for limiting an incident x-ray radiation. The slotted plate includes at least one slotted opening and two different x-ray filter regions for x-ray spectrum differentiation of the incident x-ray radiation. The two different x-ray filter regions are permanently arranged in the region of the at least one slotted opening such that radiation portions of the x-ray radiation penetrating the slotted opening having different x-ray spectra can be generated simultaneously. A radiator screen, an x-ray radiator for generating a radiation beam fan, a computer tomography device having such an x-ray radiator, and a method for controlling such a computer tomography device are also disclosed.

Abstract: A device and a related method are disclosed for selectively providing a modified aerodynamic flow over a wing under aerodynamic flight conditions with respect to a respective datum aerodynamic flow over an external wing surface of the wing in the absence of the device under similar aerodynamic flight conditions. The device includes a body configured to be movably mounted to the wing for selective displacement between at least two different positions with respect to the external wing surface and having an external body surface. The device includes a motion inducing arrangement coupled to the body and configured for providing the selective displacement. In each position, the body is in a respective superposed relationship with a respective wing surface portion of the wing external surface and the modified aerodynamic flow includes airflow over the external body surface. A wing and an air vehicle including the device are also disclosed.
