Abstract: A method for detecting damage to one or more mobile blades of an impeller of an aircraft engine, includes measuring the speed of the engine, and for each blade acquiring, by a plurality of sensors, measurements of blade-tip passage times; calculating for each sensor, a deflection of the blade tip; extracting a dynamic component of deflection for each of the calculated deflections; detecting the number of functioning sensors; selecting the dynamic components to be processed based on the detecting step; determining, for at least one blade, a variation of the dynamic behavior of the blade for each functioning sensor; and, for each blade for which a variation of the dynamic behavior has been determined, identification of potential damage to the blade.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of measuring the temperature of a coiled component comprising the injection of a known DC current into a gauge wire (1) made of resistive material, the resistance of the gauge wire varying with temperature according to a known law, the measurement of potential difference between the terminals (7a, 7b) of said gauge wire, and a step of calculation transforming the potential difference into a mean temperature of the gauge wire, said gauge wire (1) being wound inside the coil, and arranged as a series of “outbound” turns (5) and a series of “inbound” turns (6) associated pairwise with a geometry and a position that are substantially equal. It also relates to a component made in order to be able to implement this method and the measurement device as a whole.

Abstract: A printed circuit includes a substrate onto which at least one ceramic component is attached so as to enable the heat produced by the ceramic component to be discharged and to prevent cracks in the ceramic component and in the substrate. To this end, the ceramic component is attached onto the substrate using two connectors made of metal matrix composite material. The two connectors further have incisions so as to enable the mechanical stresses exerted in the substrate to be carried over into the connectors.
