L'invention concerne un aéronef, comprenant Aéronef, comprenant un ensemble d'au moins une aile munie d'au moins une structure de propulsion, appelée nacelle, et d'un fuselage, l'ensemble comprenant une zone, dite zone chaude (Zc), comportant des éléments à des températures, dites températures chaudes, supérieures ou égales à une température, dite température de zone chaude (Tc), et une autre zone, dite froide (Zf), comportant des éléments à des températures, dites températures froides, inférieures ou égale à une température, dite température de zone froide, la zone chaude (Zc) et la zone froide (Zf) étant distinctes l'une de l'autre, et la température de zone froide (Tf) étant strictement inférieure à la température de zone chaude (Tc), dans la zone chaude (Zc) se trouvant un système de production d'électricité (7), et dans la zone froide se trouvant au moins un réservoir (9) de stockage de composition de fuel pour alimenter ledit système de production d'électricité, et une unité de propulsion électrique comportant un moteur et une unité de contrôle moteur (MCU) conformé pour être alimenté électriquement par le système de production d'électricité pour produire une poussée.

A system and method for orchestrating a point-of-sale (PoS) payment transaction across a plurality of payment gateway providers is provided. The method comprising: receiving, at the PoS device, a selection, by a user, of a payment method from a plurality of payment methods for a payment transaction; determining a first payment gateway provider from a ranked list of payment gateway providers eligible to process the selected payment method; transmitting a first transaction request to the first payment gateway provider causing the first payment gateway provider to transmit a response to the PoS device; in response to the response meeting a predetermined condition, selecting a second payment gateway provider from the ranked list of gateway providers; and re-initiating the payment transaction by transmitting a second transaction request to the second payment gateway provider.

The technology relates to a computer system (100, 400) designed to manage components of a physical infrastructure in response to user requests. The system comprises several modules configured to receive user requests, then executing these requests. The system comprise for example a computing resource manager module (120) for managing computing resources. An inventory manager module (130) oversees the inventory of computing resources, ensuring efficient management and synchronization. This architecture enables dynamic configuration and management of physical infrastructure components, enhancing operational efficiency and user control.

L'invention concerne un système de protection électrique pour une liaison électrique d'un circuit électrique d'un aéronef, par exemple un aéronef à propulsion à hydrogène, comprenant un élément, dit élément fusible, réalisé en matériau qui présente des propriétés supraconductrices dans un premier état, dit état supraconducteur, et des propriétés non supraconductrices dans un deuxième état, dit état normal, la transition de l'état supraconducteur à l'état normal dégageant une énergie de transition, le système de protection comprenant également un dispositif, dit dispositif de sécurité, conformé pour ouvrir la liaison électrique lorsque l'élément fusible passe de l'état supraconducteur à l'état normal.

An aircraft anti-fogging/frosting structural cabin window assembly is presented that includes a structural cabin window containing a transparent area and a non-transparent area; an electrically-conductive transparent heating film (THF) component disposed along the transparent area of the structural cabin window, the THF component configured to generate thermal energy in response to a supplied electric voltage from an aircraft power source; and an electrically-conductive positive temperature coefficient (PTC) ink component disposed along the non-transparent area and electrically-connected in series to the THF component, in which the PTC ink component is configured with an electrical resistance that varies with ambient temperatures. And, in response to temperatures exceeding a threshold temperature value, the electrical resistance of PTC ink component increases to a level that substantially reduces the electrical power supplied to the THF component to prevent overheating of the structural cabin window by the THF component.

A method and system for aircraft turnaround readiness optimization, involving: receiving (301) target information data related to passengers' onboarding, selected turnaround tasks on an aircraft, and the aircraft schedule; receiving (302) progress information data related to progress of execution of passengers' onboarding and of the selected turnaround tasks; calculating (303) an estimate for the time of completion of the selected turnaround tasks, by comparing the corresponding target information data and progress information data; providing (304) the calculated estimate to at least an aircraft operator; and receiving (305) from the aircraft operator a subset of the selected turnaround tasks.

The present technology relates to methods for the synthesis of a PFAS-free lithium single-ion polymer which comprises simultaneously reacting a sulfonyl chloride compound with an aromatic sulfonamide compound and a compound that is suitable to act as a quenching base. The simultaneous reaction of sulfonyl chloride with the aromatic sulfonamide compound and the compound that is suitable to act as a quenching base yields the single-ion monomer.

A method and system for assistance to on ground aircraft security is devised, which involves receiving data about planned intervention information on an aircraft (100), monitoring data about security status information for the aircraft (100), and if a at least one aircraft opening (103) is opened, determining whether it is the result of an intrusion in the aircraft (100) external and/or internal structure, by comparing the corresponding data about planned intervention information and data about security status information, and if it is determined that an intrusion in the aircraft (100) has occurred, raising an alert with at least one aircraft operator.

The first suspension member is pivotally connectable to a frame assembly of the track system and defines a receptacle. The second suspension member is pivotally connectable to the frame assembly, extends at least partially within the receptacle, and is moveable relative to the first suspension member. The resilient member has a first surface that is generally fixedly connected to the second suspension member and a second surface that is generally fixedly connected to the first suspension member. The first and second suspension members have a first position, and in response to the first and second suspension members moving relative to one another, the resilient member biases the first and second member toward the first position. A track system is also disclosed.
