Abstract: The avionics computer, in particular a flight management system, comprises a processing unit configured to compare a first altitude with what is referred to as a threshold altitude, the first altitude corresponding to the altitude of a missed approach point relative to the runway, the threshold altitude being equal to the sum of a second altitude corresponding to the altitude of the runway and of a threshold crossing height, and to determine a terminal point that has an altitude equal to the threshold altitude and that forms, with the position of the missed approach point, a straight line segment that has a slope equal to the slope of the straight line segment defined by the missed approach point and a final approach fix, said terminal point being capable of being used as anchor point, the avionics computer thus having improved properties especially in terms of availability and robustness.

Abstract: The avionics computer comprises a processing unit configured to compare the distance between a first position and a second position with a predetermined distance, the first position corresponding to the position of an initial anchor point of an initial terminal segment and the second position corresponding to the position of a landing threshold point of the runway, to check whether the initial terminal segment of the virtual path crosses the threshold of the runway and, if the distance between the first position and the second position is less than the predetermined distance and if the initial terminal segment of the virtual path crosses the threshold of the runway, to define the landing threshold point as an anchor point of a terminal segment of a virtual path for a non-precision FLS approach mode, the avionics computer thus making it possible to increase availability to implement FLS mode.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to double emulsified acids, specifically water in oil in water (W/O/W) double emulsions with an acidic interior water phase. The double emulsified acid may include two or more emulsifying agents. In addition to improving the stability of the emulsions, the emulsifying agents may help slow the acid reaction rate. The first emulsifying agent may have an HLB greater than 7 and the second emulsifying agent may have an HLB less than or equal to 7. Other embodiments are directed to methods for producing a double emulsified acid and methods for acidizing a carbonate formation including a double emulsified acid.

Abstract: A bone cement delivery unit having a rigid support structure with a first portion configured to engage and retain a bone cement reservoir against its casing, a second portion supporting a transmission system and a third portion supporting and guiding a slidable push rod along the injection direction. The delivery system may include a control unit sliding the push rod opposite to the injection direction before stopping the push rod if the quantity of the bone cement pushed out of the reservoir has reached at least a predetermined minimum value, such as to eliminate residual flow. Also, the delivery system may include an adaptor including members electrically connected to the control unit, with the cement reservoir including a sensor for monitoring curing of the bone cement in electrical contact with the members of the adaptor.

Abstract: The embodiments herein discuss an analyte sensing processor housed in the external, detachable case of a mobile device. The analyte sensing processor converts the reading into a signal that can be further processed by a health management system and displayed on the graphical user interface of a user's device.
