Computational Modelling of the Automotive Gearbox Dynamics Using Multi-Body Approach
Suchý, Pavel ; Řehák, Kamil (referee) ; Prokop, Aleš (advisor)
The thesis deals with construction of a computational model of the manual automotive gearbox MQ281 in MSC ADAMS View software, on which several static and dynamic operating states of the gearbox are simulated. The input for the MBS model construction is the CAD assembly of the gearbox in necessary detail and parameters of all gears. The computational model uses a custom model of bearings and the engagement helical spur gears based on the transmission error. The outputs of the simulations are courses of forces and moments acting in bearings, gears and synchronizing clutches, courses of shafts deflection, courses of angular velocities of shafts and gears, frequency analysis of operating states.

Computational Modeling of Dynamic Behaviour of Tractor
Hejčl, Pavel ; Řehák, Kamil (referee) ; Prokop, Aleš (advisor)
This work deals with the assessment of the effects of a rear-mounted mower on tractor dynamics. The first part summarizes knowledge of the used tractor suspension variants and their various modifications. Furthermore, the current possibilities for simulating the dynamics of tractors and the construction of the rear three-point hitch are described. The main part of the work is devoted to the assembly of the multibody model of the tractor with the rear-mounted mower. The correctness of the assembly of the virtual tractor prototype is verified by comparison with the technical experiment on the real tractor. The validated model is further used to analyse various well-defined steady-state and transient driving conditions typical of this set.

Design of Single Cylinder 4-stroke SI Engine
Číž, Petr ; Rasch, František (referee) ; Rasch, František (referee) ; Svída, David (advisor)
Thesis deals with design of the experimental single-cylinder spark ignition engines for research purposes. The main purpose of this work is the design crankcase. Summary of possible constructions of spark ignition engines is included. Basic dimensions and 3-D design of the experimental engine resulted from the summary. The numerical analysis of proposed crankcase in ADAMS (MBS) and ANSYS (FEM) software environment is also part of the work. Generally, the proposed solution of the experimental engine was focused on the universality and simplicity of the design.

Rear Axle Optimization of SIGMA Sports Car
Repka, Martin ; Hejtmánek, Petr (referee) ; Blaťák, Ondřej (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with analysis and following optimisation of a Sigma TN sports car suspension. Knowledge of vehicle dynamics and strength of materials was used during the optimisation. Kinematic and force analysis was carried out in software ADAMS Car. A FEM analysis was processed in Ansys Workbench environment. Three design concepts were worked out, in which Topology optimisation also found use.

Concept of an In-line Spark-ignition Engine
Kočvara, Antonín ; Píštěk, Václav (referee) ; Drápal, Lubomír (advisor)
This thesis deals with comparison of straight four-cylinder petrol engine with a displacement of 1,5 litres and its three-cylinder alternative, which is based on a four-cylinder. The thesis starts with a research, where are examples of some currently manufactured engines. The research is followed by design of both engines, where the design of the crank mechanisms is made more in detail. After that, both crank mechanisms are subjected to dynamic analysis using FEM and MBS methods. The thesis ends with comparison of both engines in terms of crankshaft load, mass and dimensions.

Adjustment and modification made to the serially produced combustion engine to get an engine for racing purposes
Závodný, Tomáš ; Knotek, Jiří (referee) ; Maršálek, Ondřej (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis analyses the modification of the serially produced combustion engine to get an engine for racing purposes. The first part is conceived as searching and is focused on why this serially produced engine was modified to racing engine and which adjustments were made on this naturally aspirated engine. Another part was dedicated to design simulation in the software ADAMS MD R3 and the results of these simulations were processed and evaluated. Conclusion contains a comparison of the results from the software and results from an actual engine dynamometer, and what is the overall success of the project in real life.

Solution of Powertrain Dynamics in Vehicle
Hodas, David ; Drápal, Lubomír (referee) ; Novotný, Pavel (advisor)
The main aim of this diploma thesis is to evaluate and select the most appropriate option how to mount a power unit in Formula Student vehicle. It assesses an overall dynamic behaviour of a drive unit mounted in student formula. At the end of the final thesis is an assessment of proposed engine mount variants. The study of parameters that most influence engine vibrations can be seen there.

Turbocharger Vibrations Generated by Internal Combustion Engine
Schulla, Radek ; Vacula, Jiří (referee) ; Novotný, Pavel (advisor)
The content of this master’s thesis is the issue of turbocharger vibrations due to excitation from the internal combustion engine. The theoretical part deals with the noise and vibrations generated by turbochargers and internal combustion engines. It also discusses the effect of vibration on the turbocharger and its individual parts, including the effect of the internal combustion engine. Subsequently, a turbocharger model is created in ADAMS software, the rotor response in turbocharger operating speeds to various excitation frequencies is analyzed and finally the safety of fluid bearings is evaluated and modifications to reduce vibrations are proposed.

Experimental Car Formula Faster Rebuild
Zarambukas, Michalis ; Zháňal, Lubor (referee) ; Blaťák, Ondřej (advisor)
The main purpose of this diploma thesis is the experimental vehicle Formula Faster engine reconstruction. The current Ford Kent 1600cc engine will be replace by the Škoda 1.4 MPI engine. The next task is to analyse kinematic properties of the front axle and subsequent optimization and transformation of steering rod placing which relates to wheel toe and bump travel. The last part is concerned with steering wheel mounting transformation, concretely with reconstruction to obtain removable steering wheel using rapid coupling.
