Assesment of residual stress with drilling hole method using FEM
Civín, Adam ; Vlk, Miloš (referee) ; Hlavoň, Pavel (advisor)
Residual state of stress in structural materials affect positively or negatively behaviour of component parts. The goal of this scope is not to deal with possible process of creating residual stresses neither about elimination of residual stress, but is focused how to determine magnitude of residual stress by hole-drilling method. We need to know magnitude and direction (angular orientation) of principal stresses to determine how residual state of stress affects behaviour of specimen. The most widely used modern technique for measuring residual stresses is hole-drilling strain-gage method. Hole-drilling method is in scope of this paper and is restricted only for measuring uniform residual stresses of steel specimens with finite dimensions. Structural, linear, elastic and isotropic material model is used with material properties =0,3 and E=2,1[10]^5 MPa. For correct application of this method we need to determine calibration coefficients “a“ and “b“ first. These coefficients are used to determine magnitude and direction of residual stresses in specific depth and diameter of drilled hole for materials with finite dimensions. Geometry and shape of model is simply represented by block with planar faces. Note that numerical determination of calibration coefficients is useful only for one type of strain gauge rosette RY 61 S. Main goals of this thesis are motivation and request to clearly report effectiveness, accuracy and applicability of calibration coefficients in relation to thickness of specimen, dimensions of drilled hole, condition of “through” or “blind” hole and number of drilled increments. High quality and accuracy of created numerical model is necessary too. Numerical simulation of residual stresses by MKP needs to be done to obtain requested results. All results are presented by 3D, 2D graphs and tables and compared with analytical results or results from other authors. Although is this publication focused on numerical modeling using FEM, hole-drilling method has many significant restrictions. The most substantial of them is influence of eccentricity of drilled hole, creation of stress concentration near drilled area and subsequent plastification, influence of geometrical inaccuracy of hole, etc. All these aspects have significant influence of determining calibration coefficients and can not be included into numerical simulation. These problems are closely discussed in background research. All obtained results should be helpful for practical use of calculated calibration coefficients to determine uniform residual stresses of specimens with various thickness and drilled hole. All these results are also applicable only for one type of strain gauge rosette, which is RY 61 S.

Automotive Electric Motors Analysis and Innovation
Vala, Tomáš ; Mach, Martin (referee) ; Hájek, Vítězslav (advisor)
Electric drives used in automotive industry are often based on standard DC motor as it is widely recognised as mature and reliable technology. The most common applications of DC motors in automotive industry are starters and wind screen wiper motors. Aim of this thesis is to provide design overview of typical automotive DC motor therefore main parts and features of the machine will be described in detail. Main disadvantage of DC motor is „sliding contact“ between commutator and carbon brushes which introduces source of electromagnetic disturbance and requires regular maintenance. Within this project different aspects of DC motor design and innovation are expected to be tackled including examples of loss calculation.

Study of the influence of feedstock composition and the values of the modulus of elasticity of concrete
Šafrata, Pavel ; Křížová, Klára (referee) ; Hela, Rudolf (advisor)
Modulus of elasticity is significantly reflected feature of concrete, besides the compressive strength in static design nowadays. Low modulus of elasticity can cause unacceptable deflections for subtle skeletal structures. It is at least irresposible to count with empirical formulas since there is a wide range of materials and additives in production of concrete. The aim of this thesis is to study the influence of large fraction aggregate on static and dynamic modulus of elasticity of concrete and recommendation for appropriate measures to produce concrete with high modulus of elasticity. The experimental part is further following up the influence of air content in concrete on the modulus of elasticity.

The dynamic characteristics of check valve
Pavlík, Václav ; Dokoupil, Pavel (referee) ; Habán, Vladimír (advisor)
This master´s thesis provides an overview of all designs of check valves, their usage and typical features. Main purpose of this work is to clear up the phenomenon of check valve slam and the other problems that occur during transients. The check valve slam was measured at the test rig in the hydraulic laboratory. For unsteady flow evaluation after pump shut down was used Gibson method. The dynamic characteristic was possible to create by results from this method. It was achieved without impact of the speed of sound in the fluid. This work also contains 2D transient CFD calculations, which was used for evaluation of the hydrodynamic torque acting on the hinge pin. This approach provides an option to calculate wide range of cases at the expense of not entirely exact geometry. The main contribution of the theoretical study at the beginning of this thesis is its entireness. It might give an important clue when right valve is selecting. For good choice of valve might be helpful to use dynamic characteristics in this thesis presented. Mentioned characteristics were created by new way and its background is in measurements and simplified CFD calculations.

Technical analysis in the foreign exchange market
Procházková, Martina ; Durčáková, Jaroslava (advisor) ; Kunz, Tomáš (referee)
The main goal of this bachelor thesis is to analyse and assess the technical analysis as a method of foreign exchange rate prediction, clarify the calculation, usage, advantages and disadvantages of technical indicators widely used on foreign exchange market and define the utilization by foreign exchange market participants. The first part presents the principles of technical analysis and delivers a comparison to fundamental and psychological analysis. The second and main part is dedicated to analysing the foreign exchange rate by particular technical indicators. To conclude, the foreign exchange market analyst's perspective and advantages and disadvantages of technical analysis applied on foreign exchange market is added.

Fracture behaviour of ceramic cellular solids under tensile loading
Řehořek, Lukáš ; Dlouhý, Ivo ; Chlup, Zdeněk
Cellular structures are promising type of architecture for a lot of materials whether made of metals, plastic or ceramic aimed at applications where lightweight, damping and and/or stiff properties are required. For trouble-free use of this materials all types of mechanical behaviour have to be known. The tensile tests of open cell ceramic foam material based on alumina are presented in this paper and complemented of acoustic emission data and digital image correlation for measuring deformations. From the results follows that ceramic foams under tensile loading behave significantly different from widely used compressive or bending tests.
