Abstract: -- A method for welding together two parts along a weld line using a welding system enabling an operator to remotely perform welding operations. The operator defines reference points on the parts to be welded and/or on the weld line to be followed. A general movement direction of the welding torch is defined from the reference points. A local frame of reference is defined relative to the general movement direction of the welding torch. The welding torch is automatically moved from a welding starting point in the general movement direction. A flow of movement instructions linked to actions of the operator on the human-machine interface is generated to move the welding torch away from the general movement direction to adapt a trajectory of the welding torch to an actual shape of the weld line. The welding torch is moved corresponding to the flow of instructions generated by the human-machine interface.

Abstract: The inventive method for processing an RR series comprises a plurality of (RR) samples representing time intervals (dti) between two successive heart beats or the inverse (1/dti) of said time intervals consists in selecting (N) (RRi) samples in a main time window having a predetermined length (n), in cutting said main window into (m) subwindows (Fj), in calculating an intermediate parameter (A1) for each subwindow (Fj) on the basis of the (RRi) samples contained in the subwindow (Fj) and in calculating a final parameter as a function of the intermediate parameters (Aj). The invention is used for analysing a cardiac rhythm variability, in particular for assessing a patient's pain or stress.

Abstract: The invention relates to automatic pilot devices on board aircraft, and more particularly aircraft of the maritime patrol or surveillance type. The invention is a device able to be engaged instinctively, calculating at least two flight path modes, the first one being a horizontal circular flight path around a location point and the second one being the overflying of a location point according to a heading chosen on a horizontal line, and making it possible to direct the aircraft automatically according to these two flight paths.
