Formation of Hypereutectic Aluminium Alloys Using Sacrificial Coatings
Gregor, Martin ; Jech, David (referee) ; Čelko, Ladislav (advisor)
Master‘s thesis deals with the forming of hypereutectic aluminium alloys using sacrificial coatings. Literature research is focused on analysing the characteristics of aluminium and its alloys. Attention is also focused to the heat treatment of aluminium alloys and the influence of alloying elements on these alloys. Analysis of characteristics and increase the useful properties of Al - Ni alloys is another object of literary research. Attention is also focused to the analysis of thermal spraying methods by focusing on the principle of individual methods and the characteristics of the coatings made by these methods. The object of experimental part is to prepare the hypereutectic aluminium alloys using sacrificial nickel based coatings. This is an unconventional manufacturing process comprising coating the surface of the aluminium substrate with using HVOF technology and subsequent thermal exposure. Furthermore, the work deals with the metallographic evaluation of prepared samples with a particular focus on the influence of temperature and time of heat treatment on the final structure of the experimental samples.

Structure and properties of Hydroxyapatite-Magnesium composites produced by the means of current assisted infiltration sintering
Casas Luna, Mariano ; Obrtlík,, Karel (referee) ; Georgarakis, Konstantinos (referee) ; Čelko, Ladislav (advisor)
Hořčík a kompozity fosforečnanu vápenatého jsou slibnými materiály pro biodegradabilní a nosné implantáty určené pro regeneraci kostí. Předložená práce je zaměřena na návrh, zpracování a charakterizaci vnitřně propojených kompozitů hořčíku s fosforečnanem vápenatým (Mg/CaP). Fosforečnany vápenaté jako jsou hydroxyapatit (HA), kalcium-deficitní hydroxyapatit (CDHA) a fosforečnan vápenatý (TCP) byly syntetizovány a použity pro výrobu skafoldů s kontrolovanou porozitou pomocí metody robocastingu. Byly připraveny porézní předlisky s ortogonální mřížkou a s vnitřními makropóry o velikosti ~500 µm, které byly následně slinovány za teploty 1100 °C po dobu 5 hodin. Vnitřně propojené Mg/CaP kompozity byly připraveny infiltrací čistého hořčíku a hořčíkových slitin obsahujících malá množství vápníku nebo zinku, například 0,2 hm.% vápníku a 1 hm.% zinku do porézních keramických skafoldů. Infiltrace byla provedena pomocí námi vyvinuté a nově popsané metody známé jako “Proudem asistovaná slinovací infiltrace” (z angl. Current Assisted Metal Infiltration (CAMI)). CAMI metoda umožňuje do 15 minut infiltrovat porézní keramický předlisek roztaveným kovem. Pulzujícím elektrickým proudem bylo dosaženo rychlého tavení a následného tuhnutí Mg/CaP kompozitů. Fyzikálně-chemické vlastnosti finálních vnitřně propojených kompozitů byly stanoveny pomocí rastrovací elektronové mikroskopie, počítačové mikro-tomografie, rentgenové difrakční analýzy a optické mikroskopie za účelem stanovení fázové distribuce a interakce mezi materiály. Kromě toho byla u připravených kompozitů hodnocena jejich mechanická pevnost v tlaku, degradační rychlost pomocí různých metod a biokompatibilita spolu s pokusem o uvedení těchto typů materiálů jako potenciálních degradabilních biomateriálů určených pro výrobu desek a/nebo šroubů pro ortopedické aplikace.

Carbon Based Materials
Hrazdíra, Matěj ; Čelko, Ladislav (referee) ; Klakurková, Lenka (advisor)
The proposed bachelor thesis deals with carbon based materials. First of all, an overview of its allotropic modifications including newly discovered forms, conditions of their existence and also their basic properties is shown. Further the extraction of carbon materials is briefly introduced. In the next chapters, forms of carbon are classified and particularly described individually with respect to manufacturing technologies and further applications. Individual chapters are dedicated to synthetic carbon and graphite, carbon fibers and carbon fiber reinforced composites. Manufacturing processes of synthetic carbon and graphite, involving possible precursors, are described in detail together with their use in various engineering applications. The following part is dedicated to carbon fibers, in particular to the manufacturing process based on the precursor used including surface treatment and sizing. Additionally the use of virgin carbon fibers is also described. The last part is focused on carbon fiber reinforced composites. Firstly possible distributions of carbon fibers in a matrix are described. Then the technology of manufacturing, properties and use of single composites according to the matrix material are expounded.

Classification of microstructure of nickel-base superalloys with image analysis using
Volf, Milan ; Čelko, Ladislav (referee) ; Němec, Karel (advisor)
During operational conditions of internal combustion turbines of turbojet engines, the impeller are stressed by load cycles which vary in time, temperature and stress. In the course of operation, the blades are exposed to a considerable number of degradation effects, particularly high-temperature corrosion, fatigue processes and creep. The presented work is aimed at the study of the structure cast nickel-base superalloy INCONEL 713 LC, creep tests exposured. The structural changes (degradation) was clasification by the help of image analyses. Operational conditions of heat parts, used in gas turbines and turbo-compressors, were simulated by creep tests of Inconel 713 LC nickel superalloy during a constant load of temperatures ranging from 750 up to 950°C. Changes in the structure dependent upon time, temperature and stress applied were analysed by means of light and electron microscopy methods and image analyses after the fracture of test bars.
