Abstract: A method for determining the resistive component of the leakage current impedance (Ri50) of a downstream branch to an alternating current network having a live phase (L), a neutral conductor (N), and a protective conductor (PE) conducted by: (a) measuring a differential current ILN between the live phase (L) and the neutral conductor (N); (b) measuring a voltage U between the live phase (L) and the neutral conductor (N) or between the live phase (L) and the protective conductor (PE); (c) correcting a phase shift between the differential current ILN and the voltage U; (d) determining several individual differential current values ILN,i and several individual voltage values Ui, the differential current values ILN,i being phase-corrected with respect to the voltage values Ui; (e) determining the effective power P from the several individual differential current values ILN,I and the several individual voltage values Ui; (f) determining the effective voltage UEff by the voltage values Ui; and (g) determining the r

Abstract: A method for connecting two components is proposed where a pressure acting on an adhesive between two join partners is supported by an auxiliary body which rests on a cutout of one of the components. Both components to be connected together and the auxiliary body are covered by a vacuum film and once the air has been sucked out, the compressive force is generated below the vacuum film.

Abstract: A method for producing a crossmember for a vehicle prepares a workpiece having different thicknesses and a preliminary contour from a metal sheet of uniform thickness by flat roll forming to achieve different local thicknesses. The method cuts out the workpiece, and bending roll forms the workpiece to form a crossmember with a cross section having at least two flanges opposite one another, and a web situated between said flanges. The distance between the flanges is not constant along a longitudinal extent of the crossmember, and a thickness profile at least of the web is determined by the flat roll forming. The local thicknesses and the preliminary contour are such that a geometrical shape of the crossmember corresponds to a predetermined geometrical shape with different thicknesses and heights of the web and differently shaped regions of the flanges along the longitudinal extent of the crossmember.
