A modular repair kit for repairing damaged pallet rack frames and a method of installation thereof which incudes modular elements that can be customized by mechanical process such as cutting, drilling and connecting, for example, by bolts, that avoids major modifications, such as welding, at the installation site. The modular repair kit utilizes a standard replacement post assembly that can be cut to fit into nearly any size gap that is created when the damaged portion of the pallet rack frame is removed. The remaining elements of the repair kit can then be customized to accommodate any size of the standard replacement post assembly.

A replacement tip section for a rotor blade, from which a legacy tip section was removed, includes a blade tip portion configured to be attached to an intermediate section of the rotor blade after removal of the legacy section. The intermediate section has a connection feature at an end of the intermediate section to which the blade tip portion is attachable. The replacement tip section includes a transition region configured to be attached to a forward end of the connection feature. The transition region is configured to form a leading edge of the rotor blade and extends from the blade tip portion to form an opening into which the intermediate section is attached. The transition region includes a first end having a first airfoil that conforms to the intermediate section airfoil at the connection feature, and a second end having a second airfoil that conforms to the blade tip portion.

Method of lining a tubular structure with a plastics liner pipe comprising the steps of:—temporarily reducing an outside diameter of the liner pipe by passing the liner pipe through a roller system;—cooling the liner pipe once its outside diameter has been reduced and applying a thermal restraint;—transporting the liner pipe to an installation site remote from the roller system;—removing said thermal restraint; and—installing the liner pipe in said tubular structure at said installation site.

A method of repairing a turbine engine case includes the steps of removing worn material from a retention hook in a casing, and inserting an insert into a recess within the hook.

Method for replacing, inspecting, and/or repairing components in front bearing region of gas turbine, the gas turbine having at least one fan module, housing, low-pressure system, and high-pressure system, the low-pressure system having low-pressure compressor, low-pressure turbine, connecting shaft, stub shaft, and an N1 shaft connected to the low-pressure compressor via the stub shaft and the connecting shaft, the connecting shaft supported in the housing via first bearing unit, and the stub shaft supported in the housing via second bearing unit, the method including dismounting the fan module, fixing the N1 shaft in an axial direction relative to the housing using fixing device, and dismounting the stub shaft using guide device, the orientation of which relative to the gas turbine in at least one spatial direction is determined by a component of the remaining gas turbine, this taking place after fixing the N1 shaft and after dismounting the fan module.

A method of repairing a damaged spar cap of a wind turbine blade of a wind turbine, the damaged spar cap including carbon fiber-reinforced plastic and the method having the steps of: removing a damaged carbon fiber-reinforced plastic part from the damaged spar cap to obtain a corresponding recess in the damaged spar cap, applying an adhesive to the recess, and fitting at least one patch including carbon fiber-reinforced plastic into the recess, is provided.

The present invention provides an aircraft structure comprising a structural component and a set of reinforcing straps for reinforcing the structural component, wherein the set comprises a first reinforcing strap having an inner and outer surface, wherein the inner surface is attached to a first surface of the structural component such that the first reinforcing strap extends longitudinally along the structural component and a second reinforcing strap having an inner and outer surface, wherein the inner surface is attached to the outer surface of the first reinforcing strap such that the second reinforcing strap extends longitudinally along the first reinforcing strap. The invention also provides an aircraft, a method of reinforcing an aircraft structure and a method of inspecting an aircraft structure.

Provided is a method of repairing damage on a wind turbine blade with a simple method. The method of repairing a wind turbine blade is a method of repairing a wind turbine blade for a damage portion caused by a lightning strike, including the steps of: generating in advance a repairing member molded in a predetermined flat plate shape and solidified; determining a damage determination range defined in advance for the damage portion; and bonding the repairing member when a result of inspecting the wind turbine blade indicates that the damage portion is within the damage determination range. The step of generating the repairing member may include stacking glass fiber materials to generate the repairing member.

A repair kit and associated method for repairing an automotive coolant pipe for fluid-conducting within an engine block of an engine includes at least a repair stent with a flared end, sealant and instructions for performing the method. The method includes draining coolant from the engine, removing the water pump from the engine without removing the timing chain cover of the engine, inserting the repair stent including a sealant through the coolant passage, wherein the coolant passage extends through the timing chain cover into the engine, re-assembling the water pump to the engine and adding coolant to the engine.
