Abstract: The system comprises a limited number of equal groups of formwork pieces, each group comprising: —intermediate pieces (1) of constant curvature and width along the entire length thereof and—end pieces (2) forming two symmetrical lateral corners of triangular or trapezoidal outline, with a curvature equal to that of the intermediate pieces. This system allows for forming, with the same groups of pieces, successive formwork segments of varying or constant section for building towers. The invention also includes a building method and the tower thus obtained.

Abstract: A rear fuselage section of an aircraft comprises at least one closed frame constructed as a unitary body, and a horizontal tail plane comprising a box-type central element and two lateral torsion boxes, said horizontal tail plane trimmable with respect to a pivot axis. The horizontal tail plane is mounted at the closed frame and the pivot axis is contained in a horizontal plane below the lowest end of said closed frame.

Abstract: Compounds and combinations of them that inhibit phosphatidic phosphohydrolase (PAP) enzymatic activity are formulated into pharmaceuticals useful in cancer treatment. Inhibitors of PAP can be used for blocking the progression of cancers that depend on the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), its oncogenic variants and other members of its ErbB tyrosine kinase receptor family, through induction of their endocytosis, thus making them inaccessible to the extracellular stimuli that promote maintenance and progression of cancer.

Abstract: A method for modifying an inorganic tubule, such as halloysite, cylindrite, boulangerite, or imogolite, with a functionalized block copolymer for improving compatibility with a thermoplastic or thermoset polymer matrix and a composition for the modified inorganic tubule and for the modified inorganic tubule-polymer matrix are provided. In one embodiment, the block copolymer can be added to a slurry of the inorganic tubules. The pH of the slurry can be manipulated to promote ionic bonding between the inorganic tubules and one block of the block copolymer. The other block of the block copolymer is selected for compatibility with the polymer matrix for a particular application.

Abstract: A method for generating an illumination map. The method includes receiving an earth model that represents one or more properties of the earth. The method then includes receiving a target area in the earth model and propagating one or more wavefields from the target area to a potential seismic data acquisition region in the earth model. After propagating the wavefields, the method includes decomposing the propagated wavefields into one or more subsets of the propagated wavefields and creating the illumination map based on the subsets of the propagated wavefields. The illumination map may indicate one or more contributions of one or more synthetic source and receiver pairs for illuminating the target area in the earth model. The method may then include creating a seismic survey design based on the contributions.
