Short fatigue crack propagation description
Trávníček, Lukáš ; Náhlík, Luboš (referee) ; Hutař, Pavel (advisor)
The presented master’s thesis deals with description of short fatigue cracks and can be divided to the several parts. In the first part, theoretical background of fatigue of materials and fracture mechanics parameters which can describe fatigue cracks is presented. Following part describes how to determine fracture mechanics parameters by finite elements method. Due to the shape of propagated fatigue crack, numerical model was established as a three-dimensional. Results obtained based on this model, was compared with literature with very good agreement. Than real shape of propagated short crack was used for description of the experimental data. It was shown, that plastic part of J-integral is suitable parameter for description of the short cracks.

Influence of Residual Stress on Lifetime Prediction of Polymer Pipelines
Poduška, Jan ; Nezbedová, Eva (referee) ; Malíková, Lucie (referee) ; Hutař, Pavel (advisor)
The lifetime of plastic pipes for water supply and other applications is demanded to exceed at least 50 years. Such a long lifetime is difficult to prove by standard testing methods like the hydrostatic pres-sure test. However, it is possible to calculate an estimation of the lifetime, as the most frequently oc-curring mechanism of failure of plastic pipes is the creep crack propagation and subsequent failure. The method is based on describing the crack propagation by parameters of the linear-elastic fracture mechanics. An important part of this method is a finite element simulation of crack propagation in a pipe loaded by various types of loads. Residual stress, a side product of solidification after extrusion, is one of these loads. This thesis begins with an introductory part and literature review of the relevant topics – most of all the typical material properties of the pipe materials, mechanisms of failure, methods of residual stress determination suitable for plastic pipes and their results, methods of testing the materials and calculating lifetime. After the introduction, the problems to be solved are defined. The description of the residual stress state in the wall of various plastic pipes is the main topic. Both tangential (hoop) and axial residual stress in pipes of different dimensions and materials are determined using a combination of experiments and numerical simulations. Also, a simplified method of tangential residual stress is designed that can provide a sufficiently precise description of the tangential resid-ual stress state and is not difficult to carry out. A method to include the residual stress in the lifetime calculations and its influence on the lifetime is also dealt with. Apart from residual stress, the influence of soil loads in case of a buried pipe is studied. The residual stress can also influence the experimental determination of crack growth rate. If the CRB (cracked round bar) test is used to measure the crack growth rate, the crack can propagate asymmetrically due to the presence of residual stress in the specimens, which affects the results. Based on a finite element simulation of crack propagation in a CRB specimen, the severity of the influence is assessed.

Development of SLM process parameters for manufacturing of mold segment for molding tires
Měchura, Lukáš ; Hutař, Pavel (referee) ; Rapant, Martin (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with finding suitable process parameters for the production of molding segment by SLM technology. It consists of a combination of structures, shells, thin slats and bulk parts. The tested material is maraging steel 300. The research part deals with the problem of choice of suitable process parameters, such as laser power and speed, hatch distance and thickness of the built layer. The achievable mechanical properties of the parts and the choice of the suitable structure were also examined. In the thesis were found suitable process parameters for printing of bulk parts and structures.

Stainless steels for cryogenic applications processed by 3D printing
Grygar, Filip ; Hutař, Pavel (referee) ; Koutný, Daniel (advisor)
This thesis deals with properties of austenitic stainless steel 304L processed by SLM technology and tested at room and cryogenics temperatures. Result is description of mechanical properties and microstructure. First step was to develop processing parameters to achieve porosity of prints fell below 0,01 %. Following tensile test showed higher yield and ultimate tensile strength than conventionally fabricated parts, even at temperature -80 °C, but at cost of reduced ductility. Due to deformation and low temperature austenite transformed into martensite. This transformation also occurred in Charpy toughness test, that resulted in ductile to brittle behaviour.

Low cycle fatigue of pseudoelastic NiTi alloy
Kaňová, Monika ; Hutař, Pavel (referee) ; Pantělejev, Libor (advisor)
This work is focused on study of mechanical properties of NiTi alloy which shows pseudoelastic and shape memory behaviour. Functional and structural fatigue of the material is examined. The main aim of this work was to perform and to evaluate a series of fatigue tests. The material was supplied in the form of wire which was gripped in the machine using special grips. In the first part of the experiment, tensile tests are evaluated and the reproducibility of measurements is demonstrated. Then, a series of cyclic tests was performed. Results were analysed together with previous measurements. One part of discussion concerned changes of the hysteresis loops during cycling and their dependence on strain rate. The fatigue life curves were plotted. It was found that these curves have non-standard shapes. The reasons for this are explained in the work.

Processing of high-strength aluminum alloy AlSi9Cu3 using selective laser melting technology
Suchý, Jan ; Hutař, Pavel (referee) ; Paloušek, David (advisor)
Method selective laser melting can produce metal parts by using 3D printing. This diploma thesis deals with the influence of process parameters on the workability of AlSi9Cu3 high-strength aluminum alloy using selective laser melting. The theoretical part deals with relations between process parameters and identifies phenomena occurring during the processing of metals by this technology. It also deals with conventionally manufactured aluminum alloy AlSi9Cu3. In the work, material research is performed from single tracks tests, porosity tests with different process parameters and mechanical testing. Here are showing the trends of porosity change at scanning speed, laser power, individual laser stop distance, bulk energy, and powder quality. The workability of the material can be judged by the degree of relative density achieved. Simultaneously the values of the achieved mechanical properties of the selected process parameters are presented. The data obtained are analyzed and compared with literature.

Fatigue crack front shape estimation
Zouhar, Petr ; Klusák, Jan (referee) ; Hutař, Pavel (advisor)
The presented master’s thesis deals with fatigue crack front shape estimation. The aim of this thesis is to create an iterative process leading to the real fatigue crack front shape. Thesis is solved using finite element method. The work is divided into two logical parts. The first part of the thesis describes the basic concepts of linear elastic fracture mechanic (LEFM), methods used for estimation of stress intensity factor and stress singularity exponent. The first part further describes some phenomenon’s accompanying the mechanism of fatigue crack growth as for example crack tip curving and crack closure. In the second part of the thesis there is studied an affect of the free surface on the fracture parameters, especially the affected distance from the free surface is determined. Based on the assumption of a constant stress intensity factor and stress singularity exponent along the crack front, an iterative process leading to fatigue crack front shape is presented. The accuracy of the result is discussed by comparing of obtained crack front shapes with experimental data at the end of the thesis.
