Application of GPR method for detection of structural failures
Křepelka, Jan ; Láník, Jaromír (referee) ; Cikrle, Petr (advisor)
This Bachelor thesis deals with the non-destructive testing, which enable researches of failures in concrete inner structure. In the theoretical part of the thesis, selected methods are described based on their principles. Specific possibilities of use, abilities and limits are based on the method’s principle. In the practical part, the thesis focuses on Ground Penetrating Radar with the usage of a new multi-frequency scanning technology. The measurements took place with commonly used Ground Penetrating Radar Hilti PS 1000 X Scan and also with newly available Ground Penetrating Radar Proceq GPR Live. Not only the measurement results of model solids were compared, but also of real bridge construction.

Survey and Diagnostics of Reinforced Concrete Structure
Blaha, Jaroslav ; Heřmánková, Věra (referee) ; Anton, Ondřej (advisor)
The subject of this master’s thesis is the diagnostic survey of the industry cast-in-place hall. The thesis contains theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is focused on available options of diagnostic methods and options of materials evaluation. The practical part contains material assessment of chosen elements of construction. This part of thesis is focused on localizing the position and the diameter of reinforcement in every single element. Next step is focused on the quality of the concrete, particularly compressive strength and modulus of elasticity. The modern machines, like Hilti PS 1000 and Profometer PM-630, are used to localize the position and diameter of reinforcement. The quality of concrete is determined by removed bore core. Evaluation of material characteristics of the structure is in the conclusion.

GPR data interpretation with use of a combined geoelectrical survey
Široký, Jakub ; Tábořík, Petr (advisor) ; Valenta, Jan (referee)
GPR data interpretation is often difficult due to complex geological environments, reflections ambiguity and time-depth conversion uncertainty. Thanks to the geophysical fields interoperability it is possible to compare results of related survey methods. Radargrams from three model sites were processed and interpreted in an usual way to uniformly amplify all recorded reflections. Results were compared with ERT and EM (DEMP) data within integrated interpretation. GPR data interpretation was extended and new geological and geomorphological interpretations were uncovered. The GPR processing sequence was modified and simplified following outcomes from the integrated interpretation to ease different methods results comparison. Adapting a velocity model to precise time- depth conversion hasn't showed improvements. Key words: ground penetrating radar, electrical resistivity tomography, dipole electromagnetic profiling, integrated interpretation, integrated inversion, GPR processing optimization, sedimentary environment, velocity model

Using ERT and GPR in polygonal patterned ground analysis
Široký, Jakub ; Křížek, Marek (advisor) ; Hartvich, Filip (referee)
Polygonal cryogenic structures cannot be investigated with conventional methods as they could be harmed during measurement. A real3D GPR and ERT non-destructive surveys were used to examine and prove applicability for topsoil covered ice-wedge pseudomorphs and coarse-grained sorted polygons (patterned ground). A list of processing tools and algorithm suitable for such environments was created and tested. The benefits of 3D measurements are illustrated on horizontal slices and pseudo3D visualisation of 3D Cube. Basic morphometry characteristics of both forms were collected. Abilities of geophysical imaging for advanced shape characterisations are discussed, too. The low-frequency measurements gave better results at both sites. Pseudomorphs, 2 wide and up to 6,5 long, were found penetrating depth bigger than 3,5 . Sorted polygons, 2,5 wide in diameter, were depicted locked by stony ring of width around 1 . Sorting depth extends up to 0,54 depth for sure, perhaps more.

Using ground penetrating radar in geomorphology
Široký, Jakub ; Křížek, Marek (advisor) ; Engel, Zbyněk (referee)
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is a non-invasive geophysical research method imaging subsurface structures. It expanded widely across geomorphologic investigation during last years because of its speed, low-cost, reliable and large-scale capability. GPR is especially useful in sedimentological studies. The thesis is focused on introducing the basics about the GPR method as it is not well-known in Czech geomorphologic scene. The physical background of the device and the electromagnetic waves is given. A research articles and books recherche helped in creating of a reflection summary amended with Czech terminology and graphic examples. The typical reflection answer of sedimentological features were documented and sorted according to the glacial, periglacial, fluvial, paleolake and slope geomorphologic environments. A sequence of steps for editing and interpreting a radargram was proposed and applied on three model radargrams.

Survey and Diagnostics of Building Construction
Slavětínský, Šimon ; Cikrle, Petr (referee) ; Anton, Ondřej (advisor)
The subject of this final thesis is the diagnostic survey of the prefabricated hall made of framed concrete in the areal of Fatra Chropyně. The thesis contains description of construction and technological survey and diagnostic methods. The practical part contains material assessing of chosen elements of construction (beam, column,precast floor slab). It is also focused on localization of position and diameter of reinforcement. Last step is focused on quality of the concrete, particularly compressive strength and strenght class of concrete.

Survey and Diagnostics of Building Construction
Resl, Jaroslav ; Cikrle, Petr (referee) ; Anton, Ondřej (advisor)
The thesis is focused on the overview of the diagnostic methods for engineering surveys reinforced concrete constructions. The practical part explains engineering surveys of industrial building, evaluation of concrete strength on existing building and results from search reinforcements on individual elements. Next part is focused on load testing precast floor slab removed from construction and evaluation load capacity. The last part include structural design of elected parts (precast floor slab and beam).

Pulse Generator for GPR
Martínek, Luděk ; Dušek, Martin (referee) ; Šebesta, Jiří (advisor)
This thesis deals with the question of ground penetrating radar. At first it considers the electromagnetic field and its mathematical description. Then it covers measurement of electromagnetic pulses and their processing of sub-surface ground penetrating radar. . In this thesis is also described the involvement of pulse generator with several transistors operating in avalanche breakdown. Individual transistors are compared in time domain. The received waveform is then selected the best transistor for the final generator. Then is proposed solution for the final pulse generator and its implementation. For impulsive generator is also designed and constructed increasing the DC-DC voltage converter. Finally, it is necessary to measure the time behavior of the output pulse generator.
