Abstract: Disclosed is a method for classifying samples wherein the information content of a sample is divided up into two information areas. The first area contains necessary information and the second area contains sufficient information. An initially imprecise preselection concerning a plurality but extremely limited number of classes is made through the necessary information area. After said preselection, identification occurs with the sufficient information area in order to pinpoint the initially imprecise preselection in relation to an effective target class. This enables classification quality to be improved by means of new classifiers or new principal formulations of classification formulations.

Abstract: A manufacturing method is provided for the production of high density, high carbon, sintered powder metal steels. The composition consists of iron based powder, graphite, lubricant, and possibly at least one alloying element from the group of chromium, copper, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, niobium or vanadium. The composition is compacted in rigid tools, sintered and during cooling an isothermal or slow cooling treatment is introduced between 650 DEG  C. and 750 DEG  C. The isothermal or slow cooling treatment may alternatively be applied during a heat treatment cycle that is carried out after a conventional sintering cycle. The material processed as described may then be formed to high density. Forming to high density is not practical with high carbon materials that have been processed by conventional methods. The high density article is then heat treated in a manner to suit specific product requirements. The mechanical properties achieved by the claimed process offer significant benefits when compared to conventionally processed sintered powder metal articles.

Abstract: A method for fastening a flat strip lamella (10) to the surface of a building component (12). According to the inventive method, the face (14) of the flat strip lamella (10) is pressed against the surface of the building using an adhesive coating (16) consisting of a reaction resin applied in a paste-like consistency (16) and hardened to form an adhesive joint. The flat strip lamella (10) comprises a plurality of carbon fibers which are embedded in a binder matrix (28) and placed parallel to each other in a longitudinal direction. In order to increase the speed at which the adhesive coating hardens, the invention provides that an electrical current flows through least one part of the carbon fibers (26), heating the flat strip lamella (10) which in turn heats the adhesive coating (16).
