Abstract: A measuring device that includes a housing and at least one vibration damper attached to the housing.

Abstract: An agricultural production machine, such as a combine, forage harvester or tractor, is disclosed. The agricultural production machine includes a drive assembly with an internal combustion engine, an electric energy supplying system having an electric auxiliary machine, and a driver assistance system with a control system that is configured to control the internal combustion engine, the electric auxiliary machine, and at least one power consumer that can be driven by the drive assembly. The internal combustion engine operates at the lowest possible rotational speed, with the electric energy supplying system configured to support the internal combustion engine by connecting the electric auxiliary machine at this lowest possible rotational speed when connecting a load.

Abstract: A method for the thermomechanical analysis of a sample (P) of a material including (a) controlling the temperature of the sample (P), (b) recording data representative for a length variation (dL) of the sample (P), (c) evaluating the data in order to determine a reversible component (dLrev), (d) calculating a corrected reversible component (dLrev-corr; ?rev-corr) and/or of the coefficient of thermal expansion (?).

Abstract: A system for measuring change in length and/or deformation force on a sample in a longitudinal direction. The system is useful in thermomechanical analysis and/or dynamic-mechanical analysis, and comprises a pushrod extending in the longitudinal direction which exerts force on the sample, and a device measuring movement of the pushrod resulting from the change in length or deformation of the sample in the longitudinal direction. The measuring device includes: a pushrod base mounted on a stationary base with a guide so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction; a controllable drive for moving the pushrod; a detector measuring the force exerted by the pushrod on the sample; and a path sensor for measuring the movement of the pushrod.
