A device for securing at least one thermal protection mat to an internal fixed structure of a nacelle includes at least one removable fastening element for securing the at least one thermal protection mat to the internal fixed structure designed to be arranged between the mat and the internal fixed structure. The device includes at least one gripping element connected to the removable fastening element to project relative to the mat on the opposite side to the internal fixed structure, the removable fastening element being intended to be detached from the internal fixed structure by a pulling force exerted on the gripping element.

A noise attenuation element can be arranged for connection to an air directing structure such as a wing flap. The element has a non-uniform lattice density across at least a portion of the body of the element.

A method for producing a panel with integrated conductor tracks and electronic components. The panel includes a panel body, wherein the panel body is in particular a sandwich structure, and a membrane. The membrane is connected to the panel body and has integrated conductor tracks and electronic components. At the beginning of the method, an operation for attaching the conductor tracks and the electronic components to the membrane is provided. The subsequent step includes an operation for connecting the membrane, fitted with the conductor tracks and the electronic components, to the panel body.

An acoustic supercell may comprise a facesheet having a plurality of perforations, a backplate parallel to the facesheet, a cell wall contacting the facesheet and the back plate, and a periodic structure. The supercell may be custom-tailored to meet specific acoustic wavelength absorption targets. The custom-tailored supercell may be arranged with a plurality of other custom-tailored supercells into an acoustic panel.

An acoustic attenuation structure includes a periodic structure having a first unit cell, the first unit cell having a first central body and a first axial tube disposed on the first central body and a second axial tube disposed on the first central body, opposite the first axial tube, each of the first axial tube and the second axial tube being in fluid communication with one another through the first central body.

A quick attach bracket includes a first portion and a second portion aligned substantially perpendicular with the first portion, a retaining ridge disposed across the first portion and extending in the direction of the second portion, and a hub disposed on the second portion and extending in the direction of the first portion. The retaining ridge is configured to receive a flange of a structure. The hub includes a sidewall that extends from the second portion in the direction of the first portion, a façade aligned with the second portion, and a rounded portion connecting the sidewall and the façade to assist with installation of the hub into a recess or through-hole of the structure. The quick attach bracket is installable by hand via hooking of the retaining ridge on the flange and insertion of the hub into the recess or through-hole.

A phononic composite material providing structural strength and blocking the propagation of elastic waves over a frequency range referred to as the bandgap. In one embodiment, the phononic composite material consists of a plurality of periodic units, each of which includes a central fiber, a relatively soft interface layer surrounding the fiber, and a matrix layer surrounding the interface layer. The properties of the interface layer may be adjusted, e.g., by adjusting the temperature of the phononic composite material, to transition from a state with a bandgap to a state lacking a bandgap.
