Structural design and stress analysis of ski landing gear for airplane with short take-off and landing
Hostinský, Vladimír ; Vaněk, František (referee) ; Katrňák, Tomáš (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is a design of a ski landing gear for the STOL Cruiser airplane and strength analysis of its parts with consideration of UL-2 and CS-LSA regulation requirements. First part follows the design process from a concept to detailed design. Decisions taken during the process and reasons behind them are discussed. In second part requirements of regulations for said aircraft’s landing gear are summarized and forces acting on the landing gear are calculated. This calculation is followed by a strength analysis of critical parts. Analysis of composite body of the ski carried out with a use of FEA and optimalization of its composite material layout is presented in a more detailed way.

Composite Chassis for Formula Student
Mende, Milan ; Šebela, Kamil (referee) ; Janoušek, Michal (advisor)
The Master’s thesis deals with the design and production of a composite chassis of the new formula Dragon X. The carbon prepreg used for manufacturing of the monocoque was to be operated at high temperatures. Therefore, this thesis deals with the application of composites structures in the high temperature environment. The thesis addresses the torsional stiffness problematics and it was not only physically tested, but also simulated by FEM analysis and the results were compared.

Experimental and numerical analysis of reinforced concrete elements
Niedoba, Jakub ; Láník, Jaromír (referee) ; Žítt, Petr (advisor)
This master‘s thesis deals with the behaviour of strengthened reinforced concrete beams. The aim was to evaluate different types of strengthening in comparison not only with each other, but also with the reference beam. Three reinforced concrete beams were fabricated for the purpose of the thesis. The first served as a reference beam, the second was strengthened with carbon lamella glued to the lower edge of the reinforced concrete beam, and the last one was strengthened with unbonded post-tensioning system. Subsequently, they were all loaded by a four-point bending. An evaluation was then carried out which shows that the two strengthened reinforced concreate beams resist the load much better than the reference beam. In the conclusion, different utilization possibilities of both methods are listed, as well as the disadvantages that must be taken into account when designing.

Passive heat dissipation using carbon-based material
Genco, Ondřej ; Brázdil, Marian (referee) ; Pospíšil, Jiří (advisor)
The content of the diploma thesis is evaluation of the usability of carbon composites in the space industry. The aim of this work is to assess whether carbon composites can find application in mechanical systems of passive thermal protection of artificial objects. Model examples demonstrate the principle of operation of selected passive thermal protection. The evaluation is realized based on the results of thermal analysis. Analytical formulas from field theory of heat transfer are used as a calculation method. The diploma thesis consists from two parts. The theoretical part briefly describes the mechanisms of heat transfer, selected types of passive thermal protection and properties and applications of carbon composites. The practical part consists of the assignment, calculation and evaluation of three examples. The results show that carbon composites can compete with commonly used materials for specific requirements.

The use of advanced composite materials for the design of concrete structures
Macháček, Jan ; Matušíková, Anna (referee) ; Girgle, František (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the design of concrete structures reinforced by FRP according to ACI, fib, CSA and EC2 regulations, which are stressed by a shear force. The diferences between steel rebar and FRP reinforcement were described, in particular its mechanical degradation over time and a different stress-strain diagram. Furthermore, shear capacity calculations were performed according to the regulations and compared with the real tests. Then the parametric analysis of shear strength was performed. In the practical part, the design of concrete floor slab structure supported by the pillars and walls was performed. The upper reinforcement of this slab was designed with FRP and the lower with steel rebar. Double-headed studs were used as a punching shear reinforcement.

Eddy Current Probe Design and its Application on Aircraft Composite Structures
Boháčová, Marie ; Hájek, Karel (referee) ; Kopec, Bernard (referee) ; Mazal, Pavel (advisor)
This thesis deals with design of an eddy current transducer which enables non-destructive inspection of composite aircraft structures primarily carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) in areas of manufacture and maintenance. The design of the transducer is based on analytical-experimental approach and its electrical and mechanical parameters were optimized to ensure a good signal to noise ratio at the six composite samples. These samples contain artificial discontinuities in the form of various types of defects. These defects are simulating the various types of damage created in the aircraft structure, especially delamination or thickness changes of composite materials. The experimental measurements, data collection and non-destructive evaluation were performed during the period. The result of this work is functional eddy current probe, which is reliably able to detect some damage of the carbon composite structures to the depth of 3,9 mm.
