Summary:A method for making a temporary connection between two parts (10, 12), comprising the following successive steps: placing a connecting element (40, 40') into an operating position wherein said connecting element surrounds the assembly formed by said parts and is subjected to an internal deformation strain; locking the position of said connecting element by stress-keeping means (52') with controlled relief; connecting said connecting element (40, 40') to each part (10, 12) by attaching means (36, 38); and wherein said internal deformation stress is at a sufficient level to enable the connecting element (40, 40') to be unsecured from said parts (10, 12) by extending to a rest position, during a release control of said stress-keeping means (52').
