A review study of metamaterial structures for applications in implantology
Tonhajzer, Michal ; Lošák, Petr (referee) ; Marcián, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the influence of geometrical parameters variation on the stress-strain states and elastic characteristics of auxetic meta-materials. The research part of the thesis summarizes the basic properties of materials, methods of their determination, specifics in the response of auxetic meta-materials to external loads, occurrence and different types of auxetic structures. The next part of the thesis is devoted to the potential use of auxetic meta-biomaterials in implantology. In the computational part of the thesis, a parametric computational model of a particular auxetic meta-material structure was developed, on which a stress-strain analysis was subsequently performed and the influence of changing geometrical parameters on the material mechanical properties, stress and strain was assessed. Based on the results, two structures were created with parameter combinations chosen to eliminate undesirable effects while maintaining the desired properties. A detailed stress-strain analysis was performed on these two structures and the results were compared with a reference structure. Computational modelling was carried out using the finite element method in ANSYS Workbench 2023 R2.

The modal damping ratio analysis of the mechanical part using the OMA method
Sodomka, Tomáš ; Lošák, Petr (referee) ; Houfek, Lubomír (advisor)
In one of the first hours of study at the Institute of Mechanics of Bodies, Mechatronics and Biomechanics, the author of this work received three basic recommendations regarding measurement: 1) Do not measure! 2) If you measure, do not repeat the measurement!! 3) If you repeat the measurement, do not compare the measurements!!! However, this thesis boldly violates all three recommendations. In the introductory theoretical part, it briefly introduces the vibration of multi-degree of freedom damped systems and describes experimental ways of determining the modal damping. It also summarizes the Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) approach, explains the principle of the FDD method, and introduces EFDD (Enhanced Frequency Domain Decomposition) method which allows to determine not only natural frequencies and shapes as FDD does, but also modal damping of the shapes. A script in Matlab environment for processing vibrations using EFDD method is one of the thesis outputs. The script is first tested by computational model, where a model system with known damping is tested and damping is determined by the script. Subsequently, the work moves to the actual measurement of the real system - a bonded bar which is analysed by Experimental Modal Analysis and OMA, while the second variant uses commercial EFDD method (Brüel a Kjr company) and programmed script. In the conclusion of the thesis the damping results are compared to each other. The diploma thesis continues in Ing. M. Pop’s thesis – Modal Analysis Experimental Method Verification. From this work a part of measured data is taken. Specific cases of data use are always listed in the appropriate section of the text.

Simulation anlysis of turbocharger vibrations
Valo, Lukáš ; Lošák, Petr (referee) ; Březina, Lukáš (advisor)
The master thesis deals with computational modeling of a turbocharger vibrations and and assessment of influnce of passive dynamic vibration absorber on vibrations of actuator bracket. The use of dynamic vibration absorber was summarized in the research study. The analysis were performed using finite element method in ANSYS. Several computational models of turbocharger were created with different ways of modeling bolted joints between turbocharger parts. Modal analysis of each model was performed and the results were compared. For the selected model, the response to the kinematic excitation from the internal combustion engine for two load conditions was calculated using harmonic analysis. A simple model of vibration dynamic absorber was applied to the turbocharger model with reduced degrees of freedom and its influnce on vibrations of actuator bracket was investigated. Significant decrease of the maximum acceleration amplitude was achieved in a given frequency range when absorber parameters were optimized.

Determination of the elastic characteristics of highly-porous materials by means of the impulse excitation technique
Kollmann, Marek ; Lošák, Petr (referee) ; Ševeček, Oldřich (advisor)
The bachelor thesis dealt with the application of pulse excitation technique (IET) to determine the elastic characteristics of highly-porous materials. The first part explained the principle of this method together with the arguments for use outside the conditions given by the standard. In the next part, a model of foam structure with open porosity based on Kelvin cell was created in ANSYS software. The influence of porosity and cell size on its elastic characteristics was determined on the model. It was showed to agree with the theory according to Gibson and Ashby. The result of the work was the evaluation of the possibility of using IET to determine these characteristics, these results were then compared with the experimental values. It turned out that the IET provides the correct information about the stiffness of the model.

Creation of Modal Parameter Estimation Application for Experimental Modal Analysis
Ondra, Václav ; Žatko, Miroslav (referee) ; Lošák, Petr (advisor)
The aim of this diploma thesis is a creation of modal parameter estimation application. Modal properties (natural frequencies, damping factors and mode shapes) are used in many dynamics analysis and their accurate determination is very important therefore the modal parameter estimation is one of the most significant part of the experimental modal analysis. Many methods have been developed for modal parameter estimation, each of them with different assumptions and with different accuracy. In the beginning of this thesis, a theory connected with modal analysis and a theory which is necessary for understanding to presented modal parameter methods are given. Then four different modal parameter estimation methods are presented - Peak Picking, Circle Fit, Least Square method and Eigensystem Realization Algorithm. The application for the modal parameter estimation is the output of this diploma thesis. In addition, the application allows performing all experimental modal analysis such as estimation of frequency response functions, animation of the found mode shapes, different kinds of comparison etc. In the conclusion, three structures are shown on which the application and modal parameter estimation methods were tested.
