Vlach, Jiří ; Hutař, Pavel (referee) ; Horníková, Jana (advisor)
The aim of this master thesis is to explore the influence of frictional forces to the stress and strain on the straight crack tip loaded in shear modes. The first section summarizes the most important things from the field of fracture mechanics. Especially theoretical knowledge about fracture parameters (stress intensity factor, J – integral) and their determination in computational environment ANSYS Workbench. The second part deals with computational modeling. At the beginning, is created the model of material, the model of geometry, the model of loads, etc. Then it is possible to solve the direct problem outlined in the introduction. A result of this thesis is the assessment of how the friction influences the fracture parameters in shear modes II and III.

Residual fatigue life estimation of railway wheelset
Pokorný, Pavel ; Zouhar, Michal (referee) ; Náhlík, Luboš (advisor)
The first part of this master's thesis deals with the high cycle fatigue of materials, especially on growing cracks using linear elastic fracture mechanics. Much of this work is focused on the concept of stress intensity factor. This concept is nowadays one of the most widely used concepts for describing a body with crack. The first part ends with theoretical approaches to determine the residual fatigue life of the body with a crack. The second part of this master's thesis is focused on the determination of residual fatigue life of a specified railway wheelset. An existence of crack-like defect is assumed at the railway wheelset. The goal of this master's thesis is to estimate how long it will take to grow from initial defect to a critical crack length. The last part of this master's thesis is devoted to addiction order load cycles on crack growth rate.

Description of Stress and Strain States at Front of Inclined Cracks Loaded by Shear Modes
Roh, Marek ; Majer, Zdeněk (referee) ; Horníková, Jana (advisor)
The primary objective of this masters thesis is to assess the eects of the length of crack and the angle, of which is this crack inclined on the stress and strain states at its front for the test sample loaded under shear. The rst part of this thesis will analyze the individual approaches that lead to the description of the aforementioned conditions. The second part deals with the FEM model assembly, which will lead to the fracture parameters, the values of which will be compared in part three.

An aplication of the mathematical dislocation theory to the problem of the crack in the vicinity of the bi-material interface
Padělek, Petr ; Hrstka, Miroslav (referee) ; Profant, Tomáš (advisor)
The presented diploma thesis deals with a problem of the determination of the stress intensity factor of the finite length crack in the vicinity of the bi-material interface solved by the distributed dislocation technique. The work is divided into several parts. The first part is theoretical and includes basic concepts of the fracture mechanics, the crack behaviour at the bi-material interface, the formulation of the singular integral equation by virtue of the distributed dislocation technique, the Bueckner's principle, complex potentials and consequently the determination of the stress intensity factor. The second part is the theory application to the specific configuration of the crack of the finite length with respect to the bi-material interface and in the third part, there is carried out the solution of this problem for various configurations of the bi-material solved by the distributed dislocation technique and its comparison with the results obtained from the FE analysis.

Parameters of Fracture Mechanics
Oplt, Tomáš ; Ševeček, Oldřich (referee) ; Horníková, Jana (advisor)
This thesis is the descriptive summary for the most significant parameters of fracture mechanics, required to define stress field on the crack tip. The first and also the most extensive part is divided into two subparts. There are mentioned particular parameters of one-parameter fracture mechanics, firstly are considered linear elastic deformations, thereafter the elastoplastic deformations. The second, shorter part of the thesis, is aimed at multi-parameters stress field description on the crack tip, required for the calculation of constructions with the necessity to consider their geometry.

Problems of the complex potentials of the isotropic elasticity
Kubíček, Radek ; Hrstka, Miroslav (referee) ; Profant, Tomáš (advisor)
The presented diploma thesis concerns linear fracture mechanics and deals with determination of the stress intensity factor of the finite crack, which is located in the vicinity of the bimaterial interface, solved by the distributed dislocation technique and theory of complex potencials. The work is possible to devide into three parts. The first part includes basic concepts of the linear fracture mechanics and is also dedicated to the mechanics of composite materials. The second part deals with the determination of the stress intensity factor from solving singular integral equation formulated by Bueckner's principle and the distributed dislocation technique. The third part includes the specific configuration of the crack with respect to the bimaterial interface and the solution, which is compared with results obtained from the FE analysis.

Procedure of residual fatigue lifetime assesment of railway axle
Scholz, David ; Seitl, Stanislav (referee) ; Náhlík, Luboš (advisor)
The goal of the bachelor's thesis is to present options to calculate residual life of a railway axle from more sophisticated points of view. These methods are requested by railway operators to ensure higher safety of train traffic. The main issue is the perspective of fracture mechanic, considering railway axle as a component with an initial crack or other defect. The theoretical part deals with basic definitions of fracture mechanics and processes describing crack propagation, using conception of stress intensity factor, which is the most used nowadays. Following part also describes a fatique life estimation process in real. This process is demon-strated using an example after that.

Elastic Analysis of Crack Stability under Shear Loading Modes
Žák, Stanislav ; Profant, Tomáš (referee) ; Horníková, Jana (advisor)
The main goal of this thesis is to create a numerical simulation of a real experiment for specifying the ultimate state of spread of fatigue crack in pure shear stress modes and to deal with results of simulations for different specimen geometries. The simulations emulate real conditions of the experiment within the frame of linear elastic fracture mechanics. The first part of this work discusses a number of approaches to describe the stability and behaviour of cracks. The second part of this thesis deals with several possibilities of calculating crack characteristics employing ANSYS software. The third and most comprehensive part of the thesis describes the experiment which served as the template for the calculations. In addition, the setup of the simulations and the post-processing of the results for different crack parameters are discussed.

Computational modelling of strain and stress in spur gearing using FEM
Ševčík, Martin ; Maňas, Pavel (referee) ; Vrbka, Martin (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with computation modeling of spur gearing using FEM. The methodology of checking calculation was suggested for gears which are not possible to check only by using standard ČSN 01 4686. The analysis of influence of vicinity of stress concentration on stress distribution in tooth root was performed. It is possibility to use the gears with thinner rim than the standard ČSN 01 4686 recommends. The main part of this work is devoted to fatigue crack propagation study in gears with thin rim. Aiding T-stress the influence of constraint and stress multiaxiality on crack propagation was taking into account. The predicted fatigue crack propagation paths were compared with certain experimental data. It is demonstrated that the considering of influence of constraint improves estimation of consequent crack propagation direction and in some cases the influence of constraint can significantly change the estimated crack propagation path.
