Biodegradable Metal Materials for Bone Tissue Prothetics
Panáková, O.
This paper is focused on use of metal materials as a bone replacement. This paper also includes description of techniques of preparation, which involves selection of material and its procession. Furthermore there are stated results of experiments, this is EDAX, electrochemical experiments and monitoring the decay of the sample. Those are amended with pictures.

Investigation of composite material degradation indicators using acoustic measurement: comparison with laser vibrometry
Fíla, Tomáš ; Urushadze, Shota ; Kytýř, Daniel ; Valach, Jaroslav ; Šperl, Martin
This paper deals with investigation of acoustic material degradation indicator (attenuation decrement drop of selected natural frequency) measured by a custom-built experimental device. Samples of C/PPS fibre composite material were analyzed. Acoustic signals were recorded and processed using spectral analysis and sound signal regression. Data measured by this method were verified by comparative experiment. Specimens were simultaneously measured using both acoustic experimental device and laser vibrometer. Modal analysis of the specimen were carried out prior to the experiment. This enabled assessment of specimens natural modes and therefore the best impact zone. In total, 10 measurements were performed for each specimen at the same level of degradation. Measured data were then processed and compared. The specimens were repetitively measured after designated number of loading cycles.

Comparison of composite material degradation assesment methods using acoustic analysis and laser vibrometry
Urushadze, Shota ; Šperl, Martin ; Kytýř, D. ; Valach, J. ; Fíla, T.
Assessment of degradation rate of material can be carried out by many experimental techniques differing in complexity and sophistication. A relatively simple method based on acoustic analysis is described in this contribution. Degradation of material’s properties due to fatigue loading is detectable in decrease of their modulus of elasticity that can be derived from natural frequencies of specimens. These measurements utilize self-designed device capable of specimen excitation and acquisition of its vibration. The recorded signal is then processed by spectral analysis enabling determination of natural frequencies. Usefulness of the above mentioned acoustic method can be seen in the fact that the measured changes of material’s parameters are comparable to those obtained by laser vibrometry, which is by several orders more expensive technique.

Investigation of C/PPS Composites Degradation Process Using Acoustic Measurement
Fíla, Tomáš ; Valach, Jaroslav ; Kytýř, Daniel ; Šperl, Martin
The article deals with assessment of fatigue degradation of C/PPS composites using simple acoustic measurement technique. Changes in natural frequency and attenuation decrement were chosen as indicators of fatigue damage accumulation in the studied composite material. New testing device was developed for acoustic measurement. The experimental setup was designed to chime the specimen by repeatable force of stiff striker exciting a specific natural mode of vibration and to record the acoustic response of the specimen to the impact simultaneously. From the power spectral density of the signal the natural frequency was obtained. Using the same signal, the attenuation decrement was estimated from regression of the its envelope.

Assessment of C/PPS composites degradation indicators using acoustic measurement
Kytýř, Daniel ; Valach, Jaroslav ; Doktor, Tomáš ; Jiroušek, Ondřej
Changes of mechanical properties, namely of modulus of elasticity, often play a role of damage accumulation indicators in the framework of fatigue behaviour of composite materials. In order to improve the reliability of these indicators for identification of material degradation process it is necessary to eliminate the influence of external loading and volume forces associated with thermal expansion of heterogeneous material at various temperatures. Therefore the paper deals with description of experimental assessment of relation between external load and material stiffness and also studies the dependency of material stiffness on temperature. For the monitoring of degradation process ultrasonic measurement was used. Obtained results are discussed with respect to fatigue testing of material and also interpreted from the micromechanical point of view.
