Before the end of her PhD, Florence de la Barrière, Doctor and Onera 2012 Best Thesis awarded, completed the implementation of an extremely compact camera, suitable for industrial manufacture.

Toulouse, 25th of January 2013 – ONERA (Office National d'Etudes et de Recherches Aérospatiales) supports the arrival of the CEA Tech platform to the Midi-Pyrenees region.

A new on-board ultra-high performance detection system that makes use of the full potential of radar/optronics synergy. The Ramses-NG (New Generation) system is a major development of the Ramses imaging system. As a military means that is critical for defense, it offers major advances in terms of radar imaging.

The 5th issue of Aerospace Lab, the Onera International Journal, is on line. It is devoted to "Lightning Hazards to Aircraft and Launchers". The four first issues, still on line, were respectively dedicated to: the Optical Diagnostics of Flows, CFD Platforms and Coupling, High Temperature Materials, Mastering Complexity. The next one will present advances on "Flow Control: the Renewal of Aerodynamics" (June, 2013). www.aerospacelab-journal.org

The French Air and Space Academy has given an award for Cedre, ONERA’s reference simulation software for energy and propulsion, used both in research and in the aerospace industry.

French aerospace research center ONERA continues to team up with French electronics specialist Steel Electronique on NASA's Grace Follow-On mission, reflecting ONERA's strong commitment to small businesses and partnerships to foster the development of innovative solutions for aerospace and defense in both France and international markets.

Multi-scale modeling of the flow, taking into account the presence of a vane-casing clearance in turbine compressors, paves the way for better performance predictions.
