Abstract: According to the invention, fresh air (E) at the turboprop outlet is captured and mixed with the warm airflow (F) created by said turboprop to lower the temperature.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device and a method for a peritoneal dialysis treatment in several cycles. A cycler (1) controlled by a processor (31) fills the abdominal cavity with dialysis fluid, and drains the abdominal cavity. A sensor (37) senses a variable related to the draining of the dialysis fluid. The draining is interrupted when the variable reaches a breakpoint at which the variable is radically changed, thereby leaving the residual volume.

Abstract: A panel assembly and therefor in which two panels are connected to one another, where one surface of each of the panels includes a joggle, so as to include an upper plateau and a lower plateau, the two panels being connected to each other at their lower plateaus. The sum of the joggle heights of the two panels is for example equal to the sum of the accepted gap tolerances in the joint zone between the two panels.

Abstract: The object of the invention is a device for the protection against and detection of impacts on the edges of superimposed layers (2) of a composite structure (1), in particular integrally stiffened panels with stiffeners (3), wherein a U-shaped edge shield (5) encloses an edge to be protected (4) and is bonded to the latter by any appropriate means.

Abstract: A rotary actuator (16) has an inner body (32) forming a rotor and at least one outer body (34) forming a stator. The inner body (32) and outer body (34) carry blades (40,44) arranged in an alternating manner and defining between them two series of variable volume chambers. The cross-section of the chambers and the height of the triangular blades (40,44) decreases from one end to the other, as a result of a substantially frustum-shape of the inner body (32). Such an actuator (16) can be used for controlling an aircraft rudder or control surface and it is then positioned along the articulation axis of the rudder or control surface.

Abstract: For bringing about the attachment of a turbojet engine (10) to an aircraft tructure such as a wing (12), use is made of a non-rotary, front, central body of the engine, which is connected by a ball joint (16) to a thrust transmission member such as an air intake (14), which is itself connected to the wing (12) by a thrust transmitting system (18). In this way, the thrust (X) of the turbojet engine is transmitted to the air intake (14) along the engine longitudinal axis before being transmitted to the aircraft structure by the system (18). Therefore the casings and lines of shafts of the turbojet engine are not exposed to any bending moment, which makes it possible to optimize the performance characteristics of said engine. Moreover, it is still possible to deform the wing (12) without any risk of surging or hunting of the turbojet engine.

Abstract: A communication system capable of continuously exchanging digital information in a well logging installation between apparatus arranged on the earth's surface and apparatus arranged in an earth borehole, interconnected by a cable. Both the surface apparatus and the downhole apparatus include a controller and a modem for sending digital command messages downhole and digital data messages uphole. The downhole apparatus also includes one or more tools which are coupled in parallel to the downhole controller via a bi-directional bus. Each tool has a universal (identical) interface adapted to recognize a specific address unique to itself and a universal address common to all interfaces. A command message with a universal address may activate all of the tools in a "free-running" mode to transmit a predetermined quantity of data in a predetermined sequence.
