20090177373Navigation device and method - A method of providing a graphical indication of traffic congestion along a stretch of physical road notionally divided by a traffic information provider into one or more road segments is disclosed. The invention also covers a navigation system, portable navigation device, and or software capable of implementing such a method.07-09-2009
20100318286METHOD OF CREATING A SPEED ESTIMATION - A method of creating a speed estimation representative of vehicle speed along one or more road segments. In at least one embodiment, the method includes obtaining at least reference speed data from a reference source of data and second speed data from a second source of data, wherein the second source is different from the reference and the speed data is indicative of vehicle speed along the or each road segment; using the reference speed data to verify the second speed data and modifying the second speed data according to the verification; and generating an estimation of vehicle speed for the or each road segment based upon the verified second speed data.12-16-2010

20080251647System For Reducing Aerodynamic Noise At A Supplementary Wing Of An Aircraft - A system for reducing aerodynamic noise of a supplementary wing of an aircraft is provided. The supplementary wing is hinged to a main wing and is extendable when a gap region between the main wing and the supplementary wing is opened. The system includes a separating surface which can be moved into the gap region when the supplementary wing is extended and which extends at least partially along a separation flow line between a vortex flow region and a gap flow for the air flowing in the gap region. The separating surface is an n-stable surface which through an actuator device can be moved between at least one of the stable states and at least one additional state.10-16-2008

20100294893AERODYNAMIC COMPONENT WITH A DEFORMABLE OUTER SHELL - The invention relates to an aerodynamic component, in particular a wing, a landing flap, a pitch elevator, a yaw rudder, a fin or tail. The aerodynamic component comprises an outer shell and at least one supporting element supporting said outer shell. A drive unit rotates the supporting element. A supporting region is created between the supporting element and the outer shell. The supporting region transfers deformation forces from the drive unit via the supporting element to the outer shell. The supporting element is designed and configured for changing the distance of the supporting region from a longitudinal plane of the aerodynamic component with a rotation of the supporting element. The outer shell comprises an elastic deformation region. The elastic deformation region is elastically deformed by the deformation forces with a rotation of the supporting element.11-25-2010
20110024574Aerodynamic Body And High-Lift System Comprising Such An Aerodynamic Body - An aerodynamic body with an outside with a top and bottom in relation to the direction of airflow, with lateral end parts that form the lateral ends of the aerodynamic body when viewed across the direction of airflow, where in the interior of the aerodynamic body a duct with an airflow drive with a drive motor and a compressor means that is driven by the aforesaid and that is arranged in the duct is arranged, with at least one inlet at the bottom and/or at at least one of the lateral end parts of the aerodynamic body and with at least one outlet at the top of the aerodynamic body for influencing the airflow at the aerodynamic body is arranged, where in the duct a sleeve is arranged which is rotatable by means of a drive motor, which sleeve includes at least one recess which at a particular rotational position of the sleeve can be made to at least in part coincide with the outlet at the top of the aerodynamic body so that the air that has been compressed by the compressor flows through the recess in the sleeve and through the outlet, as well as a high-lift system comprising such an aerodynamic body.02-03-2011
