Abstract:
An airfoil article including a composite skin having a first surface and a second surface opposite first surface, forming a leading edge. The leading edge is during use subjected to an airflow meeting the leading edge at stagnation points. The leading edge includes an elongated member. The outer surface of the elongated member is arranged flush with the first surface of the composite skin such that an essentially smooth aerodynamic surface of the leading edge is formed. The elongated member is adapted to serve as an erosion protection of the leading edge and to function as an electrode of a plasma generating system.
Abstract:
An antenna including a dipole antenna element having central feeding points, a common mode rejection filter, a first length of a two-conductor transmission line, and a common mode rejection filter arranged and connected between a far end of the first length of the two-conductor transmission line and the feeding points of the dipole antenna element. The first length of the two-conductor transmission line is arranged to extend from a ground plane to a first height where the first length of the two-conductor transmission line is connected to the common mode rejection filter.
Abstract:
Various embodiments provide a method for analyzing images generated from at least one imaging system on at least one satellite. The method comprises providing at least three images of an area of interest from the at least one imaging system, the provided images being provided from at least three different angles, establishing point correspondence between the provided images, generating at least two sets of three-dimensional information based on the provided images, wherein the at least two sets of three-dimensional information are generated based on at least two different combinations of at least two of the at least three provided images of the area of interest, and comparing the at least two sets of three-dimensional information so as to determine discrepancies and providing information related to the imaging system and/or errors in the images based on the determined discrepancies. Associated systems, computer programs, and computer program products are also provided.
