    Abstract: A projectile including: a shell; a rotating shaft; and a screw which can be rotated by the rotating shaft. The screw and the shell include, respectively, a stop and a counter-stop opposite each other. The screw is capable of sliding axially between a first position, in which a non-zero clearance is provided between the stop and counter-stop, and a second position, in which the stop and counter-stop are in contact. An elastic return element reversibly deformable between a first and a second state of stress which correspond to the first and second positions of the screw, respectively, the stress of the first state being lower than the stress of the second state.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to an evaporator of a working fluid for an OTEC plant, comprising an elongated evaporator body extending along a main axis, a bundle of evaporators transporting hot water, a sprinkling system arranged in an upper part of the evaporator body, a system for evacuating the fluid in gaseous state and a guide system for the fluid in gaseous state towards the evacuation system. The guide system comprises an elongated cover extending along the main axis, covering the bundle of evaporators and the sprinkling system, and two partitioning means which are arranged at each end of the evaporator body and form on each of these ends a sealed connection between the outer surface of the cover and the inner surface of the evaporator body.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and a device for improving the safety of a maritime platform, installed at sea or navigating at sea, including an observation of sea waves striking the maritime platform, an operation of the maritime platform being controlled via a control system. The method and device are suitable for: —acquiring elevation values of the surface of the sea at a plurality of points, making it possible to characterize at least one group of sea waves, a sea wave being likened to a wave defined by a period and an amplitude, —calculating at least one characteristic quantity of each group of waves, —comparing the calculated characteristic quantity to a hazard threshold, —if the comparison indicates the hazard threshold is crossed, raising an alert intended for the control system.
