Laboratory exercise for measuring sound absorption coefficient and transmission loss coefficient
Kovanda, Jindřich ; Balík, Miroslav (referee) ; Skvaril, Šimon (advisor)
This thesis refers about measuring absorbtion coeficient of various materials using impedance tube by transfer function method. This thesis also deals with examinating used impedance tube, designing the adjustments for eliminating its flaws. Also the thesis deals with designing impedance tube for measurements of absorbtion coeficient, transmition coeficient and transmition loss, measuring transmition loss, creating measuring and computing program for this measurement and designing laboratory exercise dealing with this measurement.

The artwork investigates the dilemma about it being necessary to divide the world between the categories of people and nature. The initial impulse was to create a concept of the concept. The main motif is a wooden stick. It is a series of around 2000 small performances (documented on A4 format paper), for which it is not clear whether they have happened or not, and it encounters the issue of identity crisis. The work also continuously examines the possibility of the emergence of meaning with the risk that no meaning may arise at all.
Identification of Relevant Tire Traces in Traffic Accident Place Based on their physical characteristics
Bilík, Martin ; Kovanda, Jan (referee) ; Kledus, Robert (referee) ; Bradáč, Albert (advisor)
The thesis deals with the possibilities of identifying the relevant tire traces at the place of a traffic accident based on their physical characteristics. Braking traces on the road are one of the most important objective elements for accident analysis, their easy and accurate detection is very important for accurate accident assessment. With the increasing technical equipment of vehicles, especially with the introduction of newer generations of braking assistance systems, traces left by the tires become almost invisible to the human eye. It is therefore highly desirable that their detection should be not only as accurate as possible but also as easy and fast as possible, not only for forensic experts, but especially for members of the traffic police departments. In line with the development and introduction of new safety and assistance systems for vehicles should also be the development of means and methods of providing the basis for technical analysis of traffic accidents. Reality shows that the procedures, even if still functional, are practically identical for several decades, are dependent on the subjective capabilities of the documenting person. An essential element of the work, compared to the previously described measurement procedures, is the use of modern methods and devices at the highest known level of knowledge. The aim is to find and verify a simple, accurate, subjectively least influenced detecting method for tire traces on the road. A series of measurements confirmed the possibility of using the thermal camera at the technical level usually available at the place of the accident, under limited atmospheric and time conditions. In addition, laser-induced plasma spectroscopy and rLIBS were used. This method of detecting spotless tire treads can be marked as a minimally feasible documentary and at the same time as fast enough, based on the measurements made and the intended removal of defects of the instrument in the development phase of the prototype.
Analysis of set of factors affecting safe longitudinal distance between vehicles
Zemánek, Lukáš ; Kovanda, Jan (referee) ; Bradáč, Albert (referee) ; Vémola, Aleš (advisor)
The doctoral thesis deals with problems of a safe longitudinal distance between vehicles. It includes an analysis of a set of factors influencing the safe distance between vehicles and is concerned with a research of effect of many of these factors on observance of the safe longitudinal distance between vehicles. In connection with these factors, this work deals with the solution of this issue in neighbouring countries through statutory measures, then with statistical analysis of traffic accidents in the Czech Republic caused by non-observance of the safe distance, also problems of assistance systems operating in this area, and subsequently, based on the findings, there are recommended suggestions of actions to increase safety in this area of road transport.
Compatibility of Vehicles in a Frontal Collision
Vašíček, Jiří ; Kovanda, Jan (referee) ; Coufal, Tomáš (advisor)
Thesis deals with the compatibility of vehicles in a frontal collision. The first section discusses about compatibility from different views. There are the physical processes used in the mechanics of impact. The second part is focused on solving the compatibility of vehicles in a frontal collision by crash analysis using the finite element method. Firstly there are described collisions of vehicles from different vehicle classes (small cars, lower middle class, Pick up / SUV) into the fixed barrier by the US NCAP. Furthermore there are simulated head-on collisions of vehicles from different vehicle classes. In the end there is shown the possibility of using data from crash tests to determine the EES.
Analysis of impact of active safety elements in vehicles on pedestrian protection for traffic accident investigation
Vertaľ, Peter ; Kovanda, Jan (referee) ; Kropáč, František (referee) ; Vémola, Aleš (advisor)
Increase the probability of prevent road accidents by installing autonomous systems in a vehicles is the current trend in the field of active safety with a focus on pedestrian safety. The work deals with the evaluation of intervention of active safety systém for pedestrian detection assembled in series production. Benefit of active safety systems to prevent road accidents can be achieved, for example, early warning driver of a potential collision situation sufficiently in advance to reaction and post-maneuver (braking, yaw, ..). The evaluation of the intervention of active safety systems, which aim to prevent an accident with a pedestrian is necessary to experimentally evaluate the behavior of these systems. The main objective of this work is to test the selected systém based on different types of reál accidents. Atthe time of the measurements and present, are not for experts and specialists in the field of road traffic accidents publicly accessible data about the behavior of such a systém. The work aims to evaluate the behavior of the Volvo systém in inducing reál traffic situations. For the evaluation of this systém are precisely analyzed fatal traffic accidents with pedestrians in the urban area (speed of vehicles up to 60 km/h). Simulated traffic situations by their nature cover the most common critical situations in urban traffic. Expert community and the professionals who deal with the solution of traffic accidents receive this work valuable data to deal with such accidents. Based on these measurements give more expert input data to solve a collision with a pedestrian. The basis for understanding the behavior are created graphs of distance, speed and time at a key moment of the collision. These key moments include entry a pedestrians to driving corridor of the vehicle, system's response to conflict situations, warn the driver and then autonomously brake active safety systém
The Evaluation of masking of harmonic components in a mixture
Kovanda, Jindřich ; Indrák, Michal (referee) ; Jirásek, Ondřej (advisor)
This thesis deals with design and creation of listening test in which its respondents were setting certain harmonic of the tone to mixture of up to 16 harmonics. The respondents were setting intensity of the harmonic to the border position, in which the harmonic was not masked by the other harmonics in the tone and in which the harmonic stood up from the mixture. The respondents were stetting the harmonics from the first to sixteenth, in various types of the spectrum, pitch and intensity of the tone. Based on the results relations were found which determine how the perception of masking of harmonics vary with their order in the spectrum.
