Abstract: The aim of the invention is to determine the refractive index and/or compensation of the influence of the refractive index during interferometric length measurement with the aid of an interferometer (13, 13?) impinged upon by at least two measuring beams (v2, v3) having at least defined frequencies with an approximately harmonic ratio. Interferometric phases are evaluated for the at least two measuring beams (v2, v3) at the outlet of said interferometer. The interferometric phases corresponding to the harmonic ratio of the frequencies of the measuring beams (v2, v3) are multiplicated and at least one phase difference of the thus formed phase value is examined.

At least one first sidebrand frequency VHF is modulated to the laser beam (1) of said laser, the laser beam being guided through an absorption material (13) comprising a plurality of absorption lines in a detuning region of the laser (2), said absorption lines being arranged at different distances from each other. The laser frequency VL is detuned and, as a regulation signal for the laser frequency VL, it is determined whether there has been an absorption in the absorption material.

Abstract: A force transducer is inserted into a small boring inside a test object. Inside the boring, it can measure the elastic extensions caused by the surrounding stress matrix. The force transducer is provided in two parts. Both parts are provided with a conical inner boring or conical outer periphery in such a manner that they can be held inside the boring of the test object by a tractive force. In order to span a large tolerance zone, the outer part is axially provided with multiple slits on both sides. The outer part is provided with a polygonal shape and thereby detects the deformations to be measured, not over the entire periphery, but it records theres via the contacts axially oriented through the axial lines. The extension is integrated in a peripheral direction between the contacts and is transferred into the inner part.
