Design of device for inspection of final casting
Kutílek, Tomáš ; Maňas, Pavel (referee) ; Vaverka, Michal (advisor)
This thesis is focused on construction of device for inpection of final casting for machine casting dedicated for tension of car cam belt. Device for inpection of final casting is operated by pneumatic parts and is intended to check operational parts of the machine casting. Control is designed directly to enterprise production. It is constructed according to the custom requirements and it’s operability was confirmed on a prototype. It’s construction solves the problems with manual checking. General analysis of machine cast checking as well as analysis of machine casting dedicated for tension of car cam belt in the submitting company is included in the thesis. Moreover, the thesis comprises of discussion of the construction itself, discussion of pneumatic operating elements and economical and technological review.

Analysis of mechanical loads of selected structural parts of the excavator during operation
Busta, Michal ; Maňas, Pavel (referee) ; Vosynek, Petr (advisor)
This thesis is focused on the issue of computational modeling of soil harvesting while using the compact excavator from the company DOOSAN BOBCAT EMEA s.r.o.. The solution consists in creating two computational models in Rocky DEM and Ansys Mechanical. Rocky DEM software is used to solve the disconnection of soil by excavator components using the discrete element method. The outcome includes courses of forces and moments during the particular time of the individual joints of the model that was used. The obtained courses are then applied as an external load to the joint of a selected structural part of the analyzed model using a kinematic model in ANSYS Mechanical. The kinematic model consists of simplified geometry models of individual parts of the excavator arm, and a more detailed geometry model of the analyzed part of the arm. All the parts are connected to each other by rotational bonds representing joints. A static structural analysis of the mechanical stress is performed in ANSYS Mechanical for the prepared model during the simulated process. Finally, the selected structural part is assessed with respect to the elastic limit and fatigue strength.

Using of Reinforcement Learning for Four Legged Robot Control
Ondroušek, Vít ; Maga,, Dušan (referee) ; Maňas, Pavel (referee) ; Singule, Vladislav (referee) ; Březina, Tomáš (advisor)
The Ph.D. thesis is focused on using the reinforcement learning for four legged robot control. The main aim is to create an adaptive control system of the walking robot, which will be able to plan the walking gait through Q-learning algorithm. This aim is achieved using the design of the complex three layered architecture, which is based on the DEDS paradigm. The small set of elementary reactive behaviors forms the basis of proposed solution. The set of composite control laws is designed using simultaneous activations of these behaviors. Both types of controllers are able to operate on the plain terrain as well as on the rugged one. The model of all possible behaviors, that can be achieved using activations of mentioned controllers, is designed using an appropriate discretization of the continuous state space. This model is used by the Q-learning algorithm for finding the optimal strategies of robot control. The capabilities of the control unit are shown on solving three complex tasks: rotation of the robot, walking of the robot in the straight line and the walking on the inclined plane. These tasks are solved using the spatial dynamic simulations of the four legged robot with three degrees of freedom on each leg. Resulting walking gaits are evaluated using the quantitative standardized indicators. The video files, which show acting of elementary and composite controllers as well as the resulting walking gaits of the robot, are integral part of this thesis.

Design of aircraft power unit
Poledno, Martin ; Maňas, Pavel (referee) ; Nevrlý, Josef (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with basic design and calculation of an aircraft power unit (APU). For desired shaft power the thermal cycle is calculated. Basic dimensions of compressor, turbine and exhaust system are calculated as well as thermodynamic parameters of air and hot gases along the motor. Corresponding compressor map, turbine map and characteristics of the exhaust system are designed. Based on these characteristics, an effective shaft power is being calculated in various off-design conditions. Dependency of the shaft power vs. altitude is also presented. All the calculations are made in MATLAB. Finally, simplified motor cross-section is created.

Equipment for tensioning of mesh on the disc filter segments
Baňoch, Ondřej ; Maňas, Pavel (referee) ; Brandejs, Jan (advisor)
The master thesis deals with mechanical design of device used for stretching and fixing filtration fabric on plastics frames segments for disc filtration device. The thesis was solved in cooperation with IN-EKO Team company that deals with development and manufacturing of filter units. Solution is connected to already ended project FR-T13/699 (end of the year 2013). At the beginning is described the field of filtration devices in broader context with description of the overall functionality these devices and description of used elements in final design. Opening text is followed by concretization of task list and descriptions of concepts variants which are based on FEM analysis of behavior of stretched filtration fabric. The best concept is processed in detail as mechanical design along with pneumatic and PLC control design. Critical part of the design is stretching clamp which was experimentally verified by using experimental clamp in combination with testing machine. The whole design is developed for mass production of disc segments for disc filter which is projected in to the level of the automation.

Design of mold segment for molding tires manufactured using Selective Laser Melting
Kvaššay, Adrián ; Maňas, Pavel (referee) ; Rapant, Martin (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with development and design modifications of tire mould segment which will be batch produced by additive technology Selective Laser Melting. Material for its production is maraging steel 1.2709. Lattice structure was used inside the segment construction. The geometry of the lattice cell was chose based on two main factors – eliminating production costs and providing sufficient stiffness. Strength of the segment was calculated by FEM. The functional sample was made and its distortion was analyzed by optical digitalization.

Design of bio-incubator for cell culture transport
Machýček, David ; Maňas, Pavel (referee) ; Paloušek, David (advisor)
In a research part, this diploma thesis deals with dividing incubators into groups according to their kind of use. From the groups biological incubators have been chosen to describe their construction, to explain possibilities of doing sampling and temperature and CO2 control. The research part is concluded by an overview of biological transport incubators for a transfer of cell cultures. In the part of the thesis which deals with a new construction solution some variations are suggested. The most suitable variation has been chosen after a structural technological description, and it is further described in a constructional solution. The frame of the incubator is made from aluminium alloy and is controlled by FEM. There are individual structural nodes being explained and visualised step by step in the construction solution. In the end of the construction solving some information about making the construction and prices of all continuing manufacture are stated.
