Title: Flight path optimization using nonlinear programming
Inventor: REZA GHAEMI
IPC: G05D1/00
Filed: 2016-08-31
Abstract: Projection-based model order reduction is performed on a mathematical model of performance characteristics of an aircraft and engine combination. Based on the projected model, fast dynamics (which may be pitch moments or vertical forces) components of the model are eliminated and replaced with algebraic equations or constraints to yield a reduced order model given as a system of differential algebraic equations (DAE). A flight path angle and throttle lever angle are set as a control to minimize fuel consumption and a climb terminal cost is defined as a function of cruise altitude and an airspeed. Optimisation equations are formulated as a nonlinear programming problem using discretized equations of motion for the aircraft and engine. An optimal open loop control is determined that minimises fuel consumption associated with the climb to a prescribed climb altitude and speed, and may be used to determine a flight trajectory.

Patent GB-2551865-A (GB)
Title: Improved stream cipher system
Inventor: MARTIN TOMLINSON
IPC: H04L9/22
Filed: 2017-01-14
Abstract: A stream cipher encryption system 201 produces two part ciphertext, the first part is an encrypted a function output of a message by using a block cipher or a stream cipher. Usually the message function will be a cryptographic hash of the message. The second part is produced by adding the keystream output of a cryptographic random number generator, using modulo arithmetic, to the message stream. The seed of the random number generator is determined by combining the encryption key with the hash of the message. In this way the keystream is never repeated unless the message itself is repeated. The result is a keystream that approximates to that of the classic one-time pad. Decryption is the reverse process in which the message hash is determined by decrypting the first part of the ciphertext and an identical keystream is produced by seeding a cryptographic random number generator with a combination of the encryption key and the decrypted message hash. In a further embodiment, a method is described which produces a keystream with higher entropy than the message. This is achieved by periodically reseeding the random number generator from hashes of permuted subsets of the message stream that have already been encrypted.
