Abstract: In a method for transmitting satellite data of a global navigation satellite system each satellite transmit position data of neighboring satellites to a navigation device on the earth. The subset of neighboring satellites with respect to a specific satellite is determined by averaging over a period of the inter-satellite distance. The subsets are further restricted to the condition that all visible satellites are referenced by the position data of at least one other satellite. This requirement can be met by choosing appropriate permutations among the satellites with shortest distance.

Abstract: An aerofoil member is described which provides for a ‘smart Core’and flexible skin. The core comprises sheet material elements forming adjoining cells. The length of the elements can be changed, for example, using the piezo-electric effect, to alter the cross-sectional shape of the aerofoil without changing the peripheral length. Thus, the shape of the aerofoil may be changed to suit different flight conditions, or to mimic the effect of control surfaces.

Abstract: To create medium-voltage windings for distribution transformers of both the oil-filled and cast-resin types, horizontal stratification techniques are still used, with machines being automated to a greater or lesser degree and with the necessity to isolate the various layers with dielectric film. Vertical-stratification winding machines introduce a radical modification with respect to this winding technique: coils are no longer made to rotate around a horizontal axis but are positioned vertically. With the new technique, the winding spirals are preformed by a variable geometry expander and fall under the force of gravity to form concentric spirals as illustrated in the main drawing below (Fig.1). A further important innovation lies in the fact there is no need to insert any form of insulation between layers, resulting in considerable advantages in terms of costs and the thermal dissipation of the coil.
