Utilization of dynamic mechanical analysis as an add-on module of oscillatory rheometry for hydrogels
Kopecký, Jiří ; Venerová, Tereza (referee) ; Smilek, Jiří (advisor)
Bakalářská práce se zabývá optimalizací dynamické mechanické analýzy a jejím využitím pro charakterizaci hydrogelů s různým typem síťování. Při optimalizaci byly řešeny problémy se správnou přípravou vzorků pro co nejlepší možné výsledky, výběr nejvhodnější geometrie pro měření vybraných hydrogelů a následně byl sepsán podrobný návod pro používání reometru a nastavení softwaru Trios. Dále pak byly diskutovány výsledky z měření pomocí oscilační smykové reometrie a následné porovnání výsledků mezi dynamickou mechanickou analýzou a oscilační smykovou reometrií.

Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of biophysics and physical chemistry Candidate: Mgr. Zdeněk Cihlář Supervisor: Prof. RNDr. Ing. Stanislav Ďoubal, CSc. Title of Thesis: Viscoelasticity of bones - the methodology of measurement The aim of the thesis was to verify the methodology of measuring the viscoelastic parameters of human bones using an apparatus enabling the measurement of dynamic characteristics. The method is based on measurement of deformation response of samples to short or rectangular impulse of force. The samples were obtained from femoral head. The methodology is therefore based on measuring of creep curves and impulse characteristics. Resulting damped oscillations were analysed. The transient and impulse characteristics in bending stress and twisting stress were obtained. Based on these characteristics, viscoelastic parameters of samples were determined (Young modulus, shear modulus and viscosity). The Poisson's number, indicating the ratio of transverse contraction to longitudinal extension of the material during deformation, was calculated using the values of Young's modulus and shear modulus. The measured values of the Young's modulus in bending stress vary in the range from 62MPa to 670MPa. The values of the shear stress modulus range...

New method of complex modulus estimation of prepressed rubber by the FE model parameter tuning – rubber-damped wheel application

The main goal of the study was to develop a method for estimation of the frequency dependence of material constants of the pre-pressed hard synthetic rubbers. It was motivated the need to identify material constants, i.e. Young modulus and loss factor, of rubber segments pressed between the disk and the rim of a rubber-damped railway wheel. The rubber segments are pre-pressed about 20% strain level during the production of the wheel. Hard synthetic rubber materials exhibit complex thermalfrequency behavior with nonlinear dependence on static preload. The standard experimental procedures that evaluate the frequency dependence of the material are based on the vibrations of a cantilever beam that consists of a metal and a rubber layer. The new estimation method of the complex modulus of elasticity of rubber is based on the tuning of rubber constants of an FE wheel model according to the results of natural frequencies and mode shapes of the wheel ascertained from the experiment. Numerical FE model of the wheel consisted of the cyclic model of 1/24 sector of the wheel with an angle of 15° and containing one rubber segment and was created in ANSYS 14.5. Damping model of rubber is described by a special case of proportional damping. For calculating eigenvalues of the problem, the Lanczos method was used for the wheel as an undamped system and QR damped method for the damped system. The experimental modal analysis of the rubber-damped wheel pressed on the shaft took place at room temperature in the dynamic laboratory. Modal tests were performed in configuration with an exciter acting first in the axial direction and consequently in the radial direction of the wheel. Responses to the exactions were measured in three directions at 144 points. The identification of eigenvalues and mode shapes of the wheels was made separately for excitations both in radial and in axial direction.
Determination of mechanical properties from microcompression test
Truhlář, Michal ; Kruml, Tomáš ; Kuběna, Ivo ; Petráčková, Klára ; Náhlík, Luboš
This paper describes a microcompression test of Al - 1.5 wt. % Cu thin film deposited on Si substrate. Microcompression combines the sample preparation with the use of ion focused beam (FIB) with a compression test carried out using nanoindenter. Cylindrical specimens (pillars) were prepared using FIB. The diameter of pillars was about 1.3 μm and their height was about 2 μm (equal to the film thickness). Stress-strain curves of the thin film were obtained. The results depend on crystallographic orientation of pillar. The paper is focused to an attempt to determine as precisely as possible Young modulus of the film using experimental data and finite element modelling.
