Methods of fixation of the upper limb fractures
Litera, Jan ; Marcián, Petr (referee) ; Florian, Zdeněk (advisor)
The presented bachelor thesis is focused on current methods of a fixation of upper limb fractures. Part of the thesis is a literature review and a description of the upper limb anatomy. This is necessary to solve the problems associated with upper limb fractures. The history of the treatment of upper limb fractures enables to gain an insight and a benefit of the current methods of the fixation of the upper limb. Based on the acquired knowledge, there is created a simple computational model of a humeral fracture fixation using a LCP and a classical plate. The computational model for the specific load models was solved in the Ansys Workbench 18.2 computing system. The biomechanical analysis based on the results presentation of the solution of the described simple model showed differences between the application of the LCP and the classical plate.

Utilization of artificially created weak magnetic field for navigation in 3D space
Váňa, Dominik ; Beneš, Petr (referee) ; Havránek, Zdeněk (advisor)
This master's thesis focuses on the utilization of an artificially created weak magnetic field for navigation in 3D space. The theoretical part of this work deals with the general properties of the magnetic field and with its description. The next section of the theoretical part contains an overview of measuring principles for magnetic field measurements. Based on various types of measuring principles, the thesis elaborates on commercially available miniature sensors for magnetic field measurement with a measuring range up to 10 mT. The work focuses mainly on the magnetoresistive principle and fluxgate sensors. Furthermore, the theoretical part contains descriptions of methods for modeling the magnetic field of simple permanent magnets and various magnet assemblies. Lastly, the theoretical part involves a patent search of devices used for locating magnets that are installed in an intramedullary nail, which is used in intramedullary stabilization used on fractures of human bones. By locating the magnet in the nail, it is possible to precisely determine the position of the mounting holes. The practical part of the thesis deals with the analysis of magnetic field behavior in the vicinity of various magnetic assemblies, which were modeled in COMSOL Multiphysics using the finite element method. The models were created with the aim of analysing the behaviour of the magnetic field in the vicinity of the magnets and at the same time to find possible analytical functions that could be used to determine the position of the magnet in space relative to the probe. The result of this work is an analysis of various assemblies, which contains graphs of different dependencies and prescription of polynomial functions that approximate these dependencies. Another part of the thesis is the design of a probe that serves to locate the magnetic target. The work describes two possible methods of localization. For the differential method, a user interface in LabVIEW was created. The probe based on this method is fully capable of locating the magnet in the 2D plane. The state space search method is described only in theory.

Biomechanical study on upper extremity fixation
Rafaj, Svatomír ; Marcián, Petr (referee) ; Florian, Zdeněk (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with fixation and biomechanical aspects of fractures of the upper limb. The first part of the thesis discusses anatomy, knowledge of which is necessary for effective fixation of fractures. It describes the history of inner fixation of fractures and modern curing methods of fractures with a focus on locking compression plates. The second part of the thesis discusses strain-stress analysis of assemblage of humerus and applied locking compression. Computational model was created with the support of ANSYS Workbench 16.0 and SOLIDWORKS 2016 software. Computation was executed by finite element method using ANSYS Workbench 16.0 computational systém.

Effects of Defects on Composite Structures Load Carrying Capacity: Delaminations at a Bi-Material Interface
Matěják, Vladimír ; Kotoul, Michal (referee) ; Růžička, Milan (referee) ; Juračka, Jaroslav (advisor)
Kompozitní materiály se projevují komplexním způsobem porušování, které může být dále ovlivněno přítomností různých poruch plynoucích z výrobních processů nebo se vyskytujících v průběhu života součásti. Důkladné porozmění procesů porušování a jejich okolností je nezbytné pro navrhování kompozitních konstrukcí, jenž budou bezpečnější, trvanlivější a ekonomičtější. V první části disertační práce jsou popsány způsoby porušování kompozitů a uvedeny současné matematické metody pro analýzu a výpočet únosnosti. Dále jsou zde vyjmenovány hlavní druhy vad a stručně diskutován jejich vliv na vlastnosti kompozitních materiálů. Zvláštní důraz je kladen na delaminace, společně se základními principy lomové mechaniky a jejich uplatnění při výpočtech a zkoušení kompozitů. Druhá část je zaměřena na delaminace na rozhranní dvou různých materialů. Lomová houževnatost byla experimantálně měřena ve třech typech zatížení za účelem stanovení poruchového kritéria založeného na podílu módu I a módu II. Během tohoto experimentu byla vyvinuta nová metoda měření délky trhliny pomocí digitáního zpracování obrazu a rovněž byla navržena nová definice počátku šíření trhliny. Analytické vztahy pro výpočet míry uvolnění deformační energie z naměřených dat byly rozšířeny o vliv rozdílných elastické parametrů materiálů na rozhranní. Podrobnější prozkoumání analytických vztahů a výpočet metodou konečných prvků odhalil, že podíl módu I a módu II je závislý na vzdálenosti od čela trhliny a poruchové kritérium založené na podílu smíšenosti tak nemůže být použito.

Mutual interaction of multiple cracks growing in the particulate composite with brittle matrix under conditions of sub-critical crack growth
Slávik, Ondrej ; Ševeček, Oldřich (referee) ; Majer, Zdeněk (advisor)
In the first part of the submitted diploma thesis, the knowledge in the sphere of the fracture mechanics, related to the practice part of this thesis are summarized. In that the 2D parametrical numerical model of the particle composite with multiple cracks was created, using the finite elements method. Thanks to this model it is possible to find specific configurations which are showing the existance of multiple mutual interactions between these cracks, just by simple manipulation of the input data. In the calculations the influence of the residual stresses was considered which are formed during production of the material. The effect of the subcritical crack growth was taken into account as well in this thesis.

Analysis of cracking of aluminium profiles during bending process
Kalivoda, Ondřej ; Šebek, František (referee) ; Vosynek, Petr (advisor)
The presented thesis was created in cooperation with Siemens, s.r.o. and deals with the analysis of the bending of aluminium sheets. These products are used as conductors of electrical energy. The problem happened when the bending angle was 90 ° when there was a violation outside of the bend. The aim of the thesis is to verify whether the bend is correctly designed using analytical and empirical relations and the finite element method. Because of the requirement for running numerical simulation on one of the freely available software the Salome Meca program environment was used. The results of numerical simulation did not confirm that the violation should occur. In deeper analysis appeared doubts whether it is possible to correctly evaluated result only by data from tensile test. In the final part, there are recommended some experiments which would be necessary for the correct calibration of the ductil fracture criteria.

Influence of Loading Frequency on Fatigue Properties of Structural Materials
Kašpar, Jan ; Němec, Karel (referee) ; Věchet, Stanislav (advisor)
This thesis analyse the influence of loading frequency on the fatigue of the structural materials. Low frequency loading (to the 200 Hz) has nearly no influence on the fatigue properties in almost all cases. Hight frequency loading (1 and more kHz) has major influence on the fatigue limit of the structural materials. This interference will disply like increasing of the fatigue limit. For example fatigue limit of steel is more affected by hight frequency loading than the cast-iron. Important aspect at hight frequency loading is rising temperature in the loading process. Rising temperature has negative influence on the fatigue limit of materials. Important aspect of the loading high frequency is possibility to achieved gigacycle regime of the fatigue (109 and more cycles), where should appear crack from below surface. This crack is call „ fish eye".
