TL;DR: This paper focuses on the initialization, configuration and preparation phases of the threat evaluation process, supporting the user in the analysis of the behavior of the system considering the relevant parameters involved in the threat estimations.
Abstract: Threat evaluation is concerned with estimating the intent, capability and opportunity of detected objects in relation to our own assets in an area of interest. To infer whether a target is threaten ...

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied a project design methodologies for aircraft fuel systems, with the aim to shortening the system development time by applying a strategy that enables parallel development and collaborative engineering, and also by building the mode! to the correct level of detail.
Abstract: THE LARGEST AND most important fluid system in an aircraft is the fuel system. Obviously, future aircraft projects involve the design of fuel system to some degree. In this project design methodologies for aircraft fuel systems are studied, with the aim to shortening the system development time.This is done by means of illustrative examples of how optimization and the use of matrix methods have been developed and implemented at Saab Aerospace in the conceptual design of ale fuel systems. The methods introduces automation early in the development process and increase understanding of how top requirements on the ale level impact low-level engineering parameters such as pipe diameter, pump size, etc.The thesis also discusses a systematic approach when building a large simulation model of a fluid system where the objective is to minirnize the development time by applying a strategy that enables parallel development and collaborative engineering, and also by building the mode! to the correct level of detail. By correct level of detail is meant the level that yields a simulation outcome that meets the stakeholders' expectations. The experienced gained at Saab in building a simulation model, mainly from the Gripen fuel system, but also the accumulated experience from other system models, is condensed and fitted into an overall process.

TL;DR: In this article, a method and system for allowing unsafe action signals in a dispensing system of a vehicle is presented, where an indicator is arranged to indicate that dispensing is allowed.
Abstract: A method and system for allowing unsafe action signals in a dispensing system of a vehicle. A discharging signalling system of at least one dispenser of a vehicle includes an activation circuit arranged to discharge the dispenser. An indicator is arranged to indicate that dispensing is allowed. The activation circuit includes a first safety arrangement arranged to be activated when an indication from the indicator indicates that dispensing is allowed. The activation circuit also includes a second safety arrangement arranged to be activated when a discharge of the dispenser is indicated.

TL;DR: In this article, a cover covering the countermeasure scan can be opened in a fully mechanical way, by the use of the reactional force of the countermeasures, which allows for a simple, reliable and cost-effective solution.
Abstract: A dispenser for storing and launching countermeasures from an aircraft, comprising an elongate body provided with at least one launch opening adapted for storing the countermeasures in cartridges, where the dispenser comprises a pivot able cover arranged in the launch opening, where the cover, in a closed state, is adapted to close the launch opening such that the cartridges are covered. The cover is adapted to open when a force from a fired countermeasure is acting on a mounting plate. The advantage of the invention is that a cover covering the countermeasure scan be opened in a fully mechanical way, by the use of the reactional force of the countermeasure. This allows for a simple, reliable and cost-effective solution.
