On the Problems of LEFM of Composite Materials
Kopp, Dalibor ; Profant, Tomáš (referee) ; Klusák,, Jan (advisor)
The objects of this bachelor thesis is to familiarize oneself with the basics of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) of homogeneous materials and to specify these problems for composite materials. The work is divided into three parts. The first part is aimed at the basics of LEFM. The second part is concerned with generalization of LEFM. The third part is oriented to the numerical application of the studied problems to notches composed of two orthotropic materials.

Neural networks for EMC modeling of small airplanes
Koudelka, Vlastimil ; Goňa,, Stanislav (referee) ; Raida, Zbyněk (advisor)
This thesis deals with neural modeling of electromagnetic field inside small aircrafts, witch can contain composite materials in their construction. Introduction to neural networks and its application in EMC of small airplanes is discussed in the first part of the text. In the second part of this thesis we design a simple EM model of small airplane. The airplane is simulated by two parallel dielectric layers (the left-hand side wall and the right hand side wall of the airplane). The layers are put into a rectangular metallic waveguide terminated by the absorber in order to simulate the illumination of the airplane by the external wave (both of the harmonic nature and pulse one). Numerical analyses are performed to search the relations between the distribution of an electromagnetic field inside the aircraft and electric parameters of model walls. The results of numerical analyses are used to train two types of neural network. In this way we can obtain accurate continuous model of electromagnetic field inside the aircraft. For the comparison with neural networks a multi-dimensional cubic spline interpolation is provided also. Neural classifiers are also investigated. We use them for classification of imaginary composite materials in terms of EMC. The nearest neighbour algorithm is applied as a classic approach to problem of classification.

Linear elastic fracture mechanics and its application on study of composed materials
Dohnalík, Petr ; Ševeček, Oldřich (referee) ; Máša, Bohuslav (advisor)
The main objective of this bachelor thesis is the introduction to computational methods of fracture parameters of the crack, which terminates at the bi-material interface. The preface of the work deals with composites, where possible crack can grow in materials with different elastic properties. In this part advantages of composite materials are closely described and usual structure arrangements of the components are presented. The next part of this work is focused on the linear elastic fracture mechanics and available concepts for assessment of the body with presence of the crack in the homogenous material are described. These concepts are based on analytical expressions and, also, on numerical methods. This problem is furthermore extended in the next chapter by case, when the crack terminates perpendicularly to the bi-material interface. Here are given procedures, which can provide information about the further crack behaviour. In practical part all presented procedures have been used in order to evaluate the crack parameters in the homogenous material and for the crack terminating at bi-material interface. Necessary calculations were performed using the finite element method implemented in the commercial system ANSYS. Calculated results were compared and closely discussed in the conclusion.

Modelling and behaviour of composite systems in AC electric field
Matoušek, Jiří ; Frk, Martin (referee) ; Rozsívalová, Zdenka (advisor)
This work deals with modeling of progression of dielectric variables and mixture formulas for solution of properties of composite materials in dependency on frequency. Theoretical part of the work explains physical principles of polarisation mechanisms and influence on dielectric constant with changing temperature and frequency. In theoretical part processes inside the composite material, which is in electrical field are described. The work contains summary of mixture formulas and methods of their derivation. Program for use in education is a part of the work. It allows modelling of progression of dielectric variables in dependency on frequency and Cole-Cole circle diagram. In mixtures it allows modelling of frequency dependencies of dielectric constant in accordance to Maxwell's, Bőttcher's and Lichtenecker's mixture formulas.

Abrasive waterjet machining of composite materials
Chromý, Jakub ; Kalivoda, Milan (referee) ; Osička, Karel (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with composite materials and the possibilities of processing these materials by machining technologies. The work is divided into several main parts. The first part deals with the analysis of individual types of composite materials. The possibilities of machining composite materials and available technologies of their machining will be explored. Other parts will focus on the application of unconventional abrasive water jet technology to a specific composite material with an experiment on a sample part made of composite material. At the end of the work there will be a technical and economic evaluation of the experiment.

Plasmochemical treatment of natural fibres
Demková, Eva ; Mazánková, Věra (referee) ; Přikryl, Radek (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on plasmochemical surface treatment of natural flax fibres using dielectric barrier discharge and silane coupling agent. Treated fibres were used as reinforcement of composite material with an epoxy matrix. Composite materials were prepared manually, by placing saturated fibres into silicone mold. Mechanical properties of composite materials were determined by bending test, tensile test and dynamic-mechanical analysis (DMA). The presence of a silane coupling agent on the surface of the fibre was detected by EDS analysis. SEM method was also used to determine the effect of plasma on the surface of fibres.
