A protective tarpaulin for a propulsion engine of an aircraft is made of a material having an air permeability index that is sufficiently high to prevent the accumulation of moisture inside the engine or a nacelle surrounding the engine.

Protective tarpaulin for an aircraft propulsion engine

A method and device for detecting an electrical continuity fault between a first and a second points of a network of metallization strips, including determining, from mapping, a length or a duration of a shortest path between the first and the second points, sending, at the first point, a signal in the network, detecting, at the second point, the signal sent, measuring a duration between the sending and the detection of the signal, knowing the speed of propagation of the signal in the metallization strips, determining the presence of at least one electrical continuity fault if the distance traveled calculated from the measured duration is different from the length of the shortest path determined from the mapping or if the measured duration is different from the duration to travel the shortest path determined from the mapping.

A device for detecting an impact on a composite material structure. This detection device comprises at least two acoustic modules intended to be secured to the composite material structure and a processing unit able to communicate remotely with each of the acoustic modules. Each acoustic module is electrically autonomous and comprises its own means for recording the sound waves sensed by its acoustic sensor. An aircraft structure is also provided comprising a composite material structural element equipped with the impact detection device. A method is also provided for detecting an impact on a composite material aircraft structural element equipped with an impact detection device.
