The study of adhesion of glued balistic composites on the dependence of materials used.
Dobiáš, Jiří ; Másilko, Jiří (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
The aim of this work was to investigate the properties of bonded ballistic materialsBalistic composites are mainly glued to reduce weight while keeping their protective properties. On this basis, the materials used were ballistic steel, ceramics, rubber kevlar, non-gummed kevlar, Dyneema and fiberglass. For bonding used were a one-component adhesive Collano 36.104 and two-component adhesive Biresin U1305. The strength of the joint was measured in shear at tensile loads. From these results, deformation energy was further calculated.

The optimization of melting as a decomposition process for material analysis.
Ptáček, Martin ; Koplík, Jan (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
Fusion is the process in which the sample particles are dissolved in the flux. This is used for the decomposition of substances which under normal conditions do not decompose in acid. For example, silicon, which is a substantial part of cement, is not degraded under standard conditions, so it is fused. Fusion may be in solution or in a pearl. Solution fusing is used for ICP-OES rather than XRF pearls. In addition to the pearl, XRF can also be measured in powder, but it is less accurate. This bachelor thesis deals with decomposition of standards and comparison of measured values with certified values. In the course of the work, samples of the standards were decomposed using several types of fluxes, measured at ICP-OES. The same standards were measured using XRF in the form of pearls. In addition to these two methods, elemental analysis of sulfur content was also performed. These methods were finally compared. From the measured data we can say that the best results are achieved with the ICP-OES method.

The optimization of quarried limestone analysis and usage.
Sidelnicov, Vitalii ; Bednárek, Jan (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
Limestones are rocks formed predominantly from the mineral calcite. The Czech Republic is quite rich in this type of rock. Limestone may have a very diverse composition, properties and uses. For this reason, it is beneficial to study and analyze this material, to better utilize it to its full potential. This bachelor thesis deals with the possible uses of limestone from Lesní lom in Líšna in the city of Brno, which consists of two limestones - Hádsko-Ričský and Vilemovický. Limestone analyses were performed using by the following analytical methods: XRF, XRD and ICP-OES. Furthermore, the thesis deals with the preparation of samples for individual analytical methods and the differences of the results obtained by individual methods. Part of the thesis is also an overview of the possible uses of analysed limestones.

Improving of dispersion of silica fume in high performance concrete
Janča, Martin ; Koutný, Ondřej (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
The goal of this work was to create a method for improving the dispersion of silica fumes for use in high performance concrete. Traditional methods used to design and manufacture high performance concrete emphasize the removal of coarse aggregates. Use of specially sorted fine aggregates at relatively low doses, the use of super-plasticizers and siliceous excrement. The low water content was achieved by using superplasticizer on a polycarboxylate basis. The standard ultrasound technology found in each laboratory was selected for the dispersion of silica fume. For experiments were we used dry silica fume powder and aqueous stabilized suspension. For comparison, were prepared different mixtures which showed the effects of the treatment prior to the use of silica fume.

The influence of zinc oxide on the cement composite with silica fume.
Dobiáš, Jiří ; Koutný, Ondřej (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
The aim of this work was to investigate the influence of zinc oxide on the properties of blended Portland cement mixed with silica fume. On the pastes were monitored flow properties and by using of isoperibolic calorimetry process of the hydration. On the prepared samples were studied mechanical properties of obtaining values of compressive and flexural strength after 1, 7 and 28 days. By using of XRD were measured phase composition and microstructure development war observed by SEM. The elemental composition of cement leaches was measured by using of ICP-OES.

The Study of Aditives and Admixture Influence on High-Performance Concrete Properties
Šiler, Pavel ; Bílek, Vlastimil (referee) ; Brandštetr, Jiří (referee) ; Havlica, Jaromír (advisor)
The aim of this work was to develop the method for the determination of the superperplasticizers (SP) content in the water solution. The method developed was then applied to study the SP adsorption on the individual components used for high-performance concrete and the influence of the temperature and pH values over this adsorption. Furthermore the influence of the water to binder ratio, SP, finely grounded granulated blast furnace slag, fly ash, silica fume, finely ground silica sand and bauxite on the hydration process was studied by means of isoperibolic, isothermal and solution calorimetry. The compressive and flexural strength of most samples used in calorimetric experiments was also determined.

Preparation of MDF composites of increased moisture resistance
Žůrová, Marcela ; Šiler, Pavel (referee) ; Šoukal, František (advisor)
The subject of the thesis is to improve the moisture resistance of MDF (macro-defect-free) composites prepared on the basis of aluminous cement and polyvinyl alcohol. These materials are characterized by the absence of defects in the structure and high mechanical performance. These features make MDF composites a promising type of material that could be used in the future for construction purposes. The basic deficiency of MDF composites is insufficient resistance to water or moisture, accompanied by a significant decrease in strength. Therefore, this work deals with increasing of moisture resistance using organotitanate agent and modification of the polymer. Two types of polyvinyl alcohols differing in hydrolysis degree and degree of the polymerization has been modified. Based on the results of the measurement the effect of storage conditions on the properties and structure of prepared MDF composites was observed. The characterization of MDF composites were realized by measurement of flexural strength in bending, scanning electron microscopy with EDS analysis, TG-DTA-EGA, water absorption and consequently the porosity of all prepared MDF composites.

Effect of pH of mixing water on hydration and mechanical properties of cement composites.
Bezděk, Ondřej ; Krátký, Josef (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
This master’s thesis is focused on the effect of mixing water pH value on hydration and mechanical properties of cement composites based on portland cement. Source material was CEM I 42,5 R. Hydration process was analyzed by isoperibolic calorimetry, X-ray diffraction analysis and differential thermal analysis. Compressive and flexural strength was examined as mechanical properties. The samples microstructure was observed by scanning electron microscopy. Influence of mixing water pH value on flexural and compressive strength, retardation of hydration and ratio of individual phases was shown.

The preparation of cellular concrete for insulating purposes
Koutný, Ondřej ; Šiler, Pavel (referee) ; Opravil, Tomáš (advisor)
In these days of economic crisis subsiding, in the civil engineering the attention is pointed especially to the systems, which effectively reduce energy and decrease costs associated with using of residential or industrial premises. Especially the heat-insulating systems are mentioned, because of their characteristics and construction which will be applied economical solutions. It is possible to use the materials based on aerated concrete which excel within construction materials due to its heat-insulating properties. The use of this material for clearly heat-insulations seems to be fully-fledged alternative to standard heat-insulating systems also due to combination of nature character and sufficient strength. This work deals with possibility of preparation non-bearing, heat-insulating material based on autoclaved aerated concrete with volume weight under 200 kg/m3.
