Abstract: An autonomous energy system for an aircraft with a high voltage network, a main power source, an energy storage, a bidirectional DC-DC converter, and a power control management system connected to: the high voltage network to measure its voltage variations, and to the energy storage and to the DC-DC converter forming an energy buffer module providing/receiving a fixed voltage setpoint to the high voltage network; and being configured so that, when the power control management system detects that the voltage variation (ΔVr_network, ΔVd_network) of the high voltage network is higher than preset voltage discharge/charge activation thresholds during a time higher than preset time discharge/charge activation values, the power control management system provides/receives power from the energy buffer module to the high voltage network until a preconfigured condition is met.

Abstract: A resin film configured to hold a conductive metallic track against a panel. The resin film partially covers the conductive metallic track, such that the conductive metallic track has at least one region which does not have the resin film, so as to allow an electrical connection by contact. Thus, in the context of assembly on a panel, the metallic track incorporated between the panel and the resin film is protected, thus rendering this technical solution particularly robust. Furthermore, the resin film electrically insulates the metallic track from surrounding elements, and the regions which do not have resin film allow an electrical connection by contact.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing at least a portion of a box structure obtained from an outer skin and a plurality of sections each having a joining face in contact with the outer skin. The method comprises a step of positioning the sections on a mold, a step of obtaining a flat fiber preform having a thickness substantially equal to the outer skin, a step of placing a central portion of the fiber preform on the sections positioned on a first face of the mold and a step of forming a lateral extension of the fiber preform to press the fiber preform against a forming surface. A central wingbox obtained by the method is provided and a forming tool for carrying out the method.

Abstract: A composite structure, including a laminate that includes a set of plies, the laminate extending between a first edge and a second edge and including a rising ramp and a falling ramp. The rising ramp includes a starting point and an upper point and the falling ramp includes the upper point and an end point. Plies are partially located over their preceding ply and alternatively extend from the first edge or the second edge and are shorter than the ply located before the preceding ply so that their ends are stepped successively until they reach the top of the ramp.
