Trends in the design and creation of new materials
Kašičková, Václava ; Gaff, Milan (advisor) ; Babiak, Marian (referee)
Thesis investigates the flexural properties of modified laminated wood. Thesis examined two wood species - beech and aspen. The aim was to describe effect of wood species, material thickness, densification, adhesives and loaded cyclic stress on selection of mechanical properties. Wood species and thickness of material were determined as factors with very significant impact. They affected modulus of elasticity, limit of proportionality and bending strength. All these characteristics achieved higher values while testing beech lamellas. Degree of densification does not appear as a very significant factor. Comparing modulus of elasticity in this thesis and data given in the literature it is possible to say that densified lamellas used in this research reached higher values. This thesis also investigates tensile-shear strength and bendability.

The effect of surface grooves on transition to mixed lubrication
Zapletal, Tomáš ; Hartl, Martin (referee) ; Šperka, Petr (advisor)
The purpose of this diploma thesis is to describe the influence of artificially produced surface grooves on transition from full EHL regime to mixed lubrication in point contact using optical interferometry. This article focuses on influences of grooves orientation, length in contact area, elastic properties of contact surfaces and different types of oil defined by pressure-viscosity coefficient. Empirical prediction model of groove influence on film thickness was established based on experimental data. The groove influence was incorporated into lubrication parameter. This modified definition was compared to classic one. It showed that avoiding groove influence in classic definition lead to significant underestimation. Influence of groove on friction coefficient is also studied.

Shear stress relaxation of bituminous binders in DSR
Musil, Vladimír ; Hegr, Zdeněk (referee) ; Dašek, Ondřej (advisor)
The thesis describes the relaxation properties of bituminous binders determined in dynamic shear rheometer (DSR). Paving bitumen, polymer modified bitumen (PMB) and crumb rubber modified bitumen (CRmB) were chosen for comparison. In order to describe the effects of ageing on asphalt binders relaxation properties, the laboratory simulation of ageing using RTFOT and 3xRTFOT method was performed. For each binder were simultaneously conducted tests of needle penetration, softening point and elastic recovery. Selected bitumens were used for the production of asphalt mixtures. The low-temperature properties tests (TSRST) were performed for these mixtures, when the results were compared to the relaxation properties of binders determined in the DSR.

Colloid properties of hyaluronane sols
Krouská, Jitka ; Mašek, David (referee) ; Pekař, Miloslav (advisor)
Předmětem této práce bylo popsat agregační vlastnosti kyseliny hyaluronové (HA) a jejích hydrofobně modifikovaných derivátů. Za tímto účelem byly připraveny vodné roztoky kyseliny a dvou derivátů, lišící se stupněm substituce a druhem anorganické soli jako prostředím. Koncentrační řady čisté kyseliny hyaluronové a jejích derivátů byly studovány dvěma metodami, tensiometricky a spektrometricky. Povrchové vlastnosti roztoků byly měřeny s použitím kroužku Du Noüy. Zkoumáno bylo také solubilizační chování ve vodě a v chloridu sodném pomocí dvou sond: Coomassie brilantní modři a sudanu III. Amfifilní deriváty hyaluronanu mohou skutečně tvořit hydrofobní agregáty v roztoku a adsorbovat se na rozhraní vzduch–voda. Tato vlastnost je důležitá v souvislosti s transportními systémy léčiv, protože právě hydrofobní domény agregátů hyaluronanu mohou být použity jako nosiče hydrofobních léčiv. Byly zjištěny kritické agregační koncentrace roztoků derivátů hyaluronanu (tensiometricky a spektrometricky), které odpovídají právě těm koncentracím, při kterých vznikají hydrofobní domény.

The effect of boron and its compounds on setting time of portland cement
Kratochvíl, Jiří ; Švec, Jiří (referee) ; Opravil, Tomáš (advisor)
The aim of this work is to study the influence of boron and its compounds, boric acid and borax, on hydratation of portland cement. The first part describes chemical composition of portland cement and reactivity of its components. The second part deals with hydratation of portland cement. The teoretical part ends with description of retardation of portland cement using gypsum or other sulphate options. The experimental part describes preparation of samples – cement paste – modified by addition of boron, boric acid and borax in diferent concentrations. Results are obtained by evaluation of calorimetric curves, mechanical properties and phase composition. The goal is to describe kinetics of targeted slowed down process of hydratation and to find such addition which would suspend setting of boron modified system entirely. Comparison of effects of each boron-containing compound is based on its concentration and on its kind.

Analysis of videokymographic images
Zita, Aleš ; Zitová, Barbara (advisor) ; Novozámský, Adam (referee)
In ongoing basic human vocal chord functionality research, scientists try to describe the dependency of the glottal wave characteristics on tone generation and vocal chord properties. One of the affordable vocal chord visualization techniques for clinics is the Videokymography - technique based on recording the vocal chord vibration using a CCD camera modified to a line-scanner. Recorded rows are than combined to form a spatial-time recording. These records are suitable for computer based extraction of the vocal chord characteristics, including the characteristics of the glottal waves. In this thesis the method for automatic detection of the glottal waves was developed and implemented utilizing the digital image processing techniques. The proposed method is primarily focused on processing the healthy vocal chords videokymographic images as they gives us a good reference for the physiology of the human vocal chord organ.

English translation counterparts of Czech relative clauses
Sedláčková, Markéta ; Šaldová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Dušková, Libuše (referee)
The thesis studies authentic English translation counterparts of the Czech relative clauses with the relative in nominative with the objective to describe realization forms of this modifier, which uses nonfinite clauses on a larger scale. In addition, English signals restrictive function of the modifiers with a comma, Czech does not do so. The theoretical part deals separately with English and Czech syntactic relations, modification, and related topics. It sums up main differences and similarities perceived as the consequence of the differences between analytical-nominal character of English, and flective-verbal character of Czech. The study proceeds from general to more detailed, i. e. from the syntactic relations to the non-obligatory process of the modification of the noun. Next, the characterisitics of nominal phrase constituents is described, emphasising the relative clause. However, English part is more focused on the non-finite modifiers, as is supposed that their presence in the data will be denser. Hence, there are separate sections speaking about -ing participle, -ed participle, infinitive, adjectives, prepositional phrase, and apposition. The excerption results show that the relative clause may be translated into preposed adjectives and other types of finite dependent clauses. As the next topic,...
