Březina, Matěj ; Pacal, Bohumil (referee) ; Vojtěch, Dalibor (referee) ; Ptáček, Petr (advisor)
Bulk magnesium materials produced nowadays via powder metallurgy are based on a vastly extensive technological spectrum, which makes it possible to create a wide range of materials. This work focuses on the preparation of bulk materials from magnesium powder by cold pressing and hot pressing, sintering and field assisted sintering. The bulk materials were prepared in a series of compacting pressures from 100 MPa to 500 MPa and the sintering temperatures were selected in the range of 300 ° C to 600 ° C in order to characterize the influence of the manufacturing conditions and technology on the final properties of bulk materials. Prepared materials were evaluated in terms of microstructure, hardness, microhardness, three-point bend test, and fractography. From the hot pressed materials, the samples prepared at 400 and 500 MPa and 400 °C had the highest strength and hardness. The classic sintering of magnesium in the furnace with argon atmosphere proved to be ineffective due to the oxide layer on the surface and the presence of oxygen in technical argon. The SPS sintering (Spark Plasma Sintering) was the more effective with the lower applying pressure used to make the preforms and with the higher applied pressure during the SPS process itself. Highest strength and hardness were achieved in this case of materials sintered at 600 ° C prepared from free powder and the most porous preform (100 MPa). The bulk materials were prepared using all methods used, but the properties of these materials varied considerably depending on the technology used.

Preparation and properties of porous magnesium material
Ďubašák, Matej ; Kosár, Petr (referee) ; Březina, Matěj (advisor)
Magnesium is a lightweight metal suitable for various technical and biomedical applications due to its great strength-weight ratio and biocompatibility. The powder metallurgy (PM) of magnesium presents a modern method of porous magnesium processing, in which are reached specific mechanical properties influenced by high purity, material structure and controlled porosity during this process. This thesis deals with preparation and characterization of porous magnesium material which is prepared from a magnesium powder containing a particles with average size of 50 µm. The preparation process consists of powder pressing and sintering of green compacts. The properties of porous magnesium prepared by PM method depend on conditions of every individual process. The compaction pressure and sintering temperature were altered to optimize a preparation proces. There were examined mechanical properties (3 point bending, hardness) and optical properties (fractography and metallography). Obtained properties of porous magnesium prepared by PM were compared with technical literature.

This document deals with design, implementation and testing of software system for detecting p2p (peer-to-peer) networks based on combination of BPF prefiltering and POSIX regular expressions packet payload matching with known p2p protocol communications. The proposed detection system includes a database with some rules of most effuse p2p protocols in format resembling to definitions for L7-filter classifier. The application is implemented in C, runs in userspace and is targeted to all POSIX compatible platforms. The combination of detector with user attached QoS controlling is complete solution for traffic reduction of common p2p protocols.
