A barrier device is provided for an inlet cowl for an aircraft engine including an inner barrel circumferentially surrounding an opening in the inlet cowl formed along an axis of rotation of the aircraft engine, through which air passes to the aircraft engine, the inner barrel including a face sheet disposed on a radially inward side of the inner barrel relative to the axis. The barrier device includes a containment doubler of the inner barrel, disposed on a radially outward side of the inner barrel, and a blade fragment barrier including one or more strips disposed between the containment doubler and the face sheet, so as to extend circumferentially at least partially around the opening and to occupy a radial distance between the containment doubler and the face sheet.

An aircraft with an in-boom lift propulsor includes a fuselage, a boom with a recess in the upper surface, and a lift propulsor comprising of a motor assembly and a propulsive element. Motor on the aircraft is operated through an interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force on a shaft of the motor. The in-boom lift propulsor helps prevent damages to the motor assembly and the aircraft by absorbing torque from the rotor and absorbing moment from the mating flange 328, where the mating flange 328 joins the motor assembly to the boom. The boom includes an access panel to service the motor assembly and invertor during maintenance.

An air intake including an air duct inside an aircraft, an inlet at one end of the air duct, a flap door and driving mechanism that moves the flap door between closed and open positions. The flap door includes a barrier filter configured to filter an incoming airflow into the air duct, and wherein the driving mechanism is configured to pivot the flap door about a first end of the door.

A nacelle forward part of an aircraft propulsion assembly, includes an air inlet lip at the front end, an internal structure and an external panel extending the lip, and an annular stiffening frame formed around an axis of revolution and comprising an internal peripheral edge linked to the internal structure and an external peripheral edge linked to the external panel. The stiffening frame presents an inclination relative to the axis of revolution, its slope being oriented towards the front end of the nacelle forward part. The stiffening frame is configured to deviate, outside the nacelle of the propulsion assembly, an object striking the stiffening frame. The stiffening frame so configured is capable of withstanding the impacts of objects without breaking while enabling the object striking the stiffening frame to be deviated towards the exterior of the nacelle.

A system and method of an airflow control system for a vehicle is described herein. The airflow control system (100) includes an airflow housing (120) defining an airflow passageway (125) extending between a bypass opening (122) and an intake outlet (124). The airflow housing also defines a duct opening (126) positioned between the bypass opening (122) and the intake outlet (124). The intake outlet (124) may be in fluid communication with an engine intake (12) of the vehicle such that air passes from the bypass opening (122) and/or the duct opening (126) to the engine intake (12). The airflow control system (100) also includes a movable duct (160) movably connected to the airflow housing (120) to selectively allow or prevent air passage through the duct opening (126) and into the engine intake (12), and further includes a bypass door (140) movably connected to the airflow housing (120) to selectively allow or prevent air passage through the bypass opening (122) and into the engine intake (12).

A turbine engine has: a compressor; a combustor; a turbine, a gas flowpath passing consecutively through the compressor, combustor, and turbine; and inlet member along the gas flowpath upstream of the compressor. The inlet member includes the unitarily-formed single piece combination of: a three dimensional (3D) lattice portion; and a nose cap body surrounding the lattice portion.

A leading edge for an airfoil of an aircraft includes a leading plate with a convex side and a concave side, and at least one container filled with a non-Newtonian fluid. The leading edge is configured to be secured to the torsion box of the airfoil. The at least one container is arranged between the concave side of the leading plate and the torsion box of the airfoil. An airfoil is also provided including such a leading edge. A method is provided for assembling such a leading edge.

A method for manufacturing an electrified air filter for an intake system of an engine of a vehicle; the manufacturing method comprises the steps of: manufacturing an outer reinforcement mesh and an inner reinforcement mesh; manufacturing a filtering material panel; placing the reinforcement meshes on opposite surfaces of the filtering material panel so as to form a unit; bending the unit in a wave shape; and coupling the wave-shaped unit to a peripheral frame; externally coating the wires of said outer reinforcement mesh with an outer insulation; placing two strips of conductive metal material at the opposite ends of the outer reinforcement mesh; welding the two strips to the ends of the warp wires; and cutting each strip by means of through cuts so as to create spaces and hence obtain from the strip a succession of collectors that are separate from one another.

An aircraft with an in-boom lift propulsor includes a fuselage, a boom with a recess in the upper surface, and a lift propulsor comprising of a motor assembly and a propulsive element. Motor on the aircraft is operated through an interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force on a shaft of the motor. The in-boom lift propulsor helps prevent damages to the motor assembly and the aircraft by absorbing torque from the rotor and absorbing moment from the mating flange 328, where the mating flange 328 joins the motor assembly to the boom. The boom includes an access panel to service the motor assembly and invertor during maintenance.

An air supply plenum for an engine, the plenum being disposed upstream of an air intake of the engine, the air intake being provided in a casing of the engine. The air supply plenum includes a first lateral wall and a second lateral wall which together form a conduit in which an air flow flows as the engine functions. Each lateral wall includes a step which forms a transverse recess relative to the direction of the air flow in the air supply plenum, such that an aerodynamic separation occurs in the step when the engine is operating.
