Late Minoan Settlements Abandoned or Destroyed after the Eruption of Santorini Volcano.
Pavlacký, Matěj ; Bouzek, Jan (advisor) ; Musil, Jiří (referee)
This thesis examines Late Minoan Settlements in Crete that were destroyed or abandoned due to the consequences of the Santorini volcano eruption. A summary of geological history of Crete, Thera and the surrounding area is given in the first part. The next chapter sums up the research in the fields of relative and mainly absolute chronology, of which scientists have not yet been able to provide a convincing calendar date for the eruption of the volcano nor a possible fixed absolute chronology of the general Later Bronze Age not only in the Aegean. The development of the Santorini Volcano eruption in the Late Minoan IA period (LM IA) is described. According to the research, this eruption must have caused earthquakes and tsunamis. The possible impact on the near island of Crete, its inhabitants and settlements, mainly in the coastal area of north-northeast part of the island, is also discussed.

Seismic Design of Structural Steel Connections
Sotulář, Jiří ; Šabatka,, Lubomír (referee) ; Pilgr, Milan (referee) ; Hron, Lukáš (advisor)
The thesis deals with the analysis and standard check of structural steel connections subjected to seismic loads. Analysis is based on a software solution and standard check is performed according to standard requirements and formulas. The first part deals with the theory of seismic load. There are described the general knowledges about the earthquake and the method of determining the effects of seismic loading on buildings according to the EN 1998-1. In the second part of the thesis is made design and check seismically loaded multi-storey steel building. Design is based on recommendations of the EN 1998-1 and some recommendations of research. In the third part is the analysis, verification and check of steel joints, which are contained in the structure designed in the second part of the thesis. On the basis results of analyses of indivudual connections are defined recommendations and requirements for the use and design structural steel connections subjected to seismic loads.

Modeling of accidental torsion and its effect on spectral analysis
Šulerová, Zdeňka ; Nevařil,, Aleš (referee) ; Vlk, Zbyněk (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the appraisal of concrete frame structures in seismic loadeffects. To calculate the simplified method will be used to support lateral forcesspecified in EN 1998-1:2004 - Design of structures for earthquake resistence. The calculation will be done by manual calculation and the calculation program RFEM. These alternative methods will be calculated loads and torques acting on the structure and subsequently compared. The main part of the bachelor's thesis is to evaluate the effects of the random distribution of mass,prescribed by the standard, and our chosen mass distribution, where we expect the maximum deformation.

Dynamic analysis of lightweight bridge construction
Krzywoň, Filip ; Nevařil, Aleš (referee) ; Vlk, Zbyněk (advisor)
The thesis compares the dynamic response of lightweight footbridge structure. Two finite element models were made. One in Ansys 15.0 software, and another in RFEM 5.05 structural software. The results of the models were compared to each other. The response to dynamic excitation from pedestrians was evaluated in accordance to ČSN EN 1990/A2.

Influence of technical and natural seismicity on building structures with focus on structures of masonry materials
Čada, Zdeněk ; Králik,, Juraj (referee) ; prof. Ing. Alois Materna, CSc., MBA (referee) ; Krejsa,, Martin (referee) ; Salajka, Vlastislav (advisor)
The dissertation deals with selected issues in the field of the calculation of the response of building structures which are excited with dynamic non-stationary displacement loading of its ground. Seismic load has been assumed. Procedures, how to work with seismic records with respect to the accuracy of dynamic calculations, how to modify the response spectrum to ensure the reliability, how to generate synthetic accelerogram requiring more accurate response, are recommended. Synthetic akcelerogram has been generated by own approaching, which has been used as the excitation function in the experimental seismic testing of autoclaved concrete brick building in model scale. Response values of motion in the measured points of the experiment were compared with the linear and nonlinear dynamic calculations by using the finite element method models. Different levels of detail of the numerical models have been used. The shear wall behaviour has been modelled by using constitutive models with brittle failure as well as using of non-linear interaction interface with possible delamination between the masonry bricks. The behaviour of the mathematical model of wall systems has been calibrated with respect to the measured data at shear wall experiments in real and model scale of walls.

Nonlinear dynamic analysis of structures with seismic loads
Navrátilová, Martina ; Nevařil, Aleš (referee) ; Vlk, Zbyněk (advisor)
Diploma thesis compares the methods for the calculation of the response of structures with seismic loads. Linear and nonlinear analyses are used for the calculations. In the case of linear analysis response spectrum method is applied. For nonlinear analysis pushover method is used. These two methods are compared in programs AxisVM and RFEM on the examples of high-rise building and space frame.

Dynamic analysis of bridge construction
Kinclová, Radka ; Nevařil, Aleš (referee) ; Vlk, Zbyněk (advisor)
The objective of this diploma thesis is a dynamic analysis of a cable-stayed walkway. The RFEM structural analysis software is used for the calculation. Design principles of the structure are explained and analysis of the construction phases is then performed. The eigenmodes of the structure are calculated for various material combinations. The thesis examines the effects of moving loads and earthquake effects using several different methods. A comparison of the various loading effects on the structure and also the calculation methods is presented at the conclusion.

Dynamic analysis of structure loaded seismic loads
Šulerová, Zdeňka ; Nevařil, Aleš (referee) ; Vlk, Zbyněk (advisor)
This thesis deals with the calculation of response of reinforced concrete construction on the effect of seismic tension. Time and spectral analysis were made. They are mentioned as possible ways of calculation in EN 1998 - 1:2004 norm. Final figures of global deformations and stress on selected beam from the time and spectral analysis were firstly compared for the horizontal components of seismic stress affecting only in one direction. Subsequently comparison of time progress to combination of these effects mentioned in relevant norm was made. In the conclusion the results of used analysis are appraised.

Dynamic analysis of structure loaded seismic loads
Janošková, Lenka ; Nevařil, Aleš (referee) ; Vlk, Zbyněk (advisor)
In this diploma thesis the seismic load on two different models is solved – the first model is a beam hall and the second model is a multistory building. The calculation of seismic load was performed according to standard ČSN EN 1998-1 (Eurocode 8) using the response spectrum analysis and the method of equivalent static forces (substi-tute load). For the combination of seismic responses in different directions are used SRSS and CQC rules. Models and calculations were solved in a student’s version of program RFEM 4.10 (Ing. Software Dlubal, s.r.o.). The comparison of mentioned methods in each models, also the comparison of combinative rules in calculation and the final evaluation of seismic responses on both of models are the subject of this thesis.
