Abstract: A spreading device (20) for spreading a fiber filament bundle (32) to form a flat fiber band (14) has at least one convexly bent spreading edge (80) that is movable. The convexly bent spreading edge has at least one direction component perpendicular to a longitudinal extension of the fiber filament bundle (32) to be spread relative to the convexly bent spreading edge. The fiber filament bundle is configured to be placed under tension onto the convexly bent spreading edge (80) and thereafter is configured to be moved again with the at least one direction component perpendicular to the fiber filament bundle (32) away from the fiber filament bundle to release the fiber filament bundle from the convexly bent spreading edge (80).

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to an aerodynamic body with an extension in the spanwise direction, wing chord direction and wing thickness direction for coupling to a wing of an aircraft. This aerodynamic body can here be used for a leading edge flap or slat of an aircraft wing. To improve the flow characteristics, the rear side of the aerodynamic body is provided with a skin section that can be molded between a convex curvature and concave curvature.

Abstract: In a method for displaying information, particularly in a vehicle, at least one object for conveying a portion of gross information is represented graphically in at least one first display mode with the aid of a display mounted, e.g., in the vehicle, and as a function of a control signal of a control device, graphic data are generated which alter the representation of the graphical object such that the graphical object changes over to at least one second display mode. In the second display mode, the object is shown swiveled about an axis in a perspective or three-dimensional manner relative to the first display mode of the object, and the portion of the gross information conveyed by the object is greater in the second display mode than the portion of the gross information conveyed by the object in the first display mode. A corresponding display device is adapted to perform the method described above.

Abstract: A side sill of a body of a motor vehicle of sheet metal shell construction is composed of a sheet metal outer shell and a sheet metal inner shell which are welded to one another. A rolled profile for stiffening can be inserted into the side sill from an open end side and can be fastened to the side sill. In this way, a side sill can be stiffened by assembling the rolled profile after the basic construction of the body of the motor vehicle.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for transferring encrypted useful data objects (NDO) to a first telecommunication terminal (TG1), wherein at least one encrypted useful data object is initially transferred from a switching component to the first telecommunication terminal. Time information (SABS) is transferred from the switching component to the first telecommunication terminal indicating up to which moment in time a rights object (RO) associated with the at least one encrypted useful data object will arrive. Once the rights object received by the first telecommunication terminal, the telecommunication terminal checks if the moment in time indicated in the time information has elapsed. If the moment has not elapsed, the first telecommunication terminal issues a signal relating to the receipt of a useful data object via a user interface.

Abstract: A test bed and method for performing aerodynamic measurements on an object, in particular, a vehicle, are provided, in which a weighing plate serves to support the weight of the object. The weighing plate is mounted on a bearing device relative to a stationary environment. The bearing device is formed with at least one magnetic bearing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process in which a triglyceride is transesterified with an alcohol in the presence of a solid catalyst. In order to provide a process by means of which a triglyceride can be transesterified with an alcohol in the presence of a solid catalyst in relatively moderate reaction conditions with a good yield and at relatively high reaction rate, it is proposed that the solid catalyst comprises a zeolite X with an Si/Al atomic ratio of less than 1.2.
