Abstract: A lightning strike protection layer for an aircraft is disclosed having a first portion and a second portion, the first portion includes a first fibre reinforced polymer composite layer and a first electrically conductive metal layer and the second portion includes a second fibre reinforced polymer composite layer and a second electrically conductive metal layer, and the first and second portions are joined at a butt joint, with the first and second fibre reinforced polymer composite layers abutting and the first and second electrically conductive metal layers abutting; and a butt-strap extending across the butt joint, the butt-strap comprising a third electrically conductive metal layer electrically connected to the first and second electrically conductive metal layers.

Abstract: A structure is disclosed including a laminate having layers of fibre-reinforced composite material; and a lightning-strike protection (LSP) layer. The LSP layer has an outer face and an inner face opposite to the outer face. A connector has an LSP connection surface which overlaps with, and is electrically connected to, the inner or outer face of the LSP layer. A bore passes through the LSP layer, the laminate and the connector. A fastener secures together the structure to a second structure. Therein the fastener is received in the bore and the connector electrically connects the LSP layer to the fastener.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for determining whether a portion of an auto-generated prescription product order is eligible for replenishment at a reduced price, such as a 340B price, and if so determined, partitioning the order to replenish the portion of the order at the reduced price. The number of 340B accumulations accrued by a contract pharmacy on behalf of a covered entity may be determined, and a prescription product order may be partitioned into an order for those items that can be replenished at the 340B price based on the number of 340B accumulations and an order for the remaining items purchased at a higher price such as a WAC price.
