Design of auxetic structures for the 3D print
Sobol, Vítězslav ; Škaroupka, David (referee) ; Červinek, Ondřej (advisor)
Behavior in which the material expands in one direction and in a perpendicular direction under tensile loading is called auxetic and is associated, e. g. with increased indentation resistance. Auxetic behavior is mainly due to the typical geometry of the internal structure. Therefore, it can be achieved by a unique arrangement of inner micro-lattice structure. Through additive technologies such as Selective Laser Melting (SLM), it is possible to manufacture such complex geometry. This bachelor thesis deals with the design of a spatial micro-lattice structure that will exhibit auxetic behavior and can be made by the SLM method. Based on an extensive research on the topic of 2D and 3D auxetic structures, a new type of auxetic structure was designed. The manufacturability was verified by making several samples in different dimensional configurations. Auxeticity and mechanical properties were subsequently tested using a drop test. By evaluating it, it was possible to determine the influence of dimensional parameters on the overall behavior of the structure.

STUDY OF ENERGY ABSORPTION IN MICRO – STRUT LATTICE STRUCTURE PRODUCED BY SELECTIVE LASER MELTING
Vrána, Radek ; Schleifenbaum, Johannes (referee) ; Skalon, Mateusz (referee) ; Paloušek, David (advisor)
Předložená dizertační práce je součástí většího výzkumného projektu, který si klade za cíl využití mikro prutové konstrukce vyrobené technologií SLM jako absorbér rázové energie s přesně navrženými vlastnostmi. Hlavním cílem práce je vývoj numerického modelu deformačního chování mikro-prutové konstrukce vyrobeného technologií Selective Laser Melting (SLM) z materiálu AlSi10Mg. Aby bylo možné dosáhnout hlavního cíle dizertační práce, bylo nutné analyzovat vliv procesních parametrů technologie SLM na tvorbu vnitřních materiálových vad a drsnost povrchu při výrobě mikro-prutové konstrukce. Tyto imperfekce degradují její mechanické vlastnosti a jejich odstranění zlepší možnosti a přesnost numerické predikce. Výsledky ukazují významný vliv dvou hlavních parametrů – skenovací rychlosti laseru a výkonu laseru. Na základě těchto poznatků byly dále definovány parametry vstupní energie Ein a lineární energie Elin, které zahrnují oba zmíněné parametry a byly definovány jejich limitní hodnoty pro minimalizaci vzniklých imperfekcí. Deformační chování vyrobené mikro-prutové konstrukce bylo analyzováno na navrženém pádové zařízení, které umožňuje testování s dopadovou energií až 120 J. Deformační chování je vyhodnocováno s využitím obrazové analýzy záznamu vysoko rychlostní kamery a silového průběhu z tenzometru. Výsledky analýzy byly využity pro validaci numerického modelu v programu ANSYS Explicit, do kterého byly implementovány poznatky o reálném tvaru vyrobeného mikro-prutového materiálu ve formě eliptického modelu geometrie a informace o reálných mechanických vlastnostech ve formě vyvinutého materiálového modelu. Výsledné porovnání výsledků experimentu s predikcí numerického modelu ukazují dobrou shodu v místě maximálního zatížení Fmax (odchylka 5 %) i průběhu celé deformace vzorku. Tyto poznatky budou v budoucnu využity při návrhu absorbéru energie s definovanými mechanickými vlastnostmi.

Development of 3D metal printing process parameters for producing of the lattice structure
Jaroš, Jan ; Koutný, Daniel (referee) ; Vrána, Radek (advisor)
Selective laser melting (SLM) in additive technology, which allows production of lattice structures. Lattice structures are very difficult to produce using conventional methods. The main use of lattice structures is in aerospace industry and medicine for bone implants production. In this work influence of processing parameters (laser power, scanning speed) on properties (diameter, surface roughness, porosity) of struts is investigated. The processing parameters selection was based on single tracks test. In the first test, ImageJ was used to determine porosity of struts. In the second test porosity was analyzed with more accurate µCT technology. Both tests used 3D scanning technology to determine dimension accuracy and surface roughness of samples. The measurement results led to the detection of processing parameter „window“ where samles had the best combination of surface roughness and porosity. The best results were achieved with 225-275 W laser power and scanning speed of 1400-2000 mm·s-1.

Development of the Impact Energy Absorber Made by Metal 3D Printing
Kraicinger, Vít ; Malý, Martin (referee) ; Vrána, Radek (advisor)
Today, variously profiled parts are mainly used for energy absorption. For special cases, precise components are designed, as in the case of Formula Student, where a deformation article with a honeycomb structure is used. This bachelor thesis is focused on the design of an impact energy absorber made by SLM technology and lattice structures. For the design itself, a comprehensive overview of current knowledge in the field of deformation zones, energy absorbers and researches dealing with energy absorption was created. Based on the study, the most suitable material to produce AlSi10Mg was selected. Subsequently, the appropriate type of grid (BCC) and all parameters of the lattice structure were determined. Two energy absorbers with different struts diameters (0.4 mm and 0.8 mm) and different grid sizes (4 mm and 8 mm) were modeled for the selected parameters. At the end of the work are two simplified calculations that show the predicted final values of the proposed absorbers and the stiffness of the layers of the lattice structure with graded density.

The developement of SLM laser strategy for lattice structure fabrication
Jaroš, Jan ; Dočekalová, Kateřina (referee) ; Vrána, Radek (advisor)
Additive technology (AT) is increasingly used to design unique parts, mainly due to the ability to produce complex structures such as lattice structures. However, this also includes the need to modify the process parameters or the production strategy of the AT, which is usually set to produce volume geometry. Using samples corresponding to the geometries of the lattice structures, the exact input values were measured, which were used to design the SLM (Selective laser melting) production process using a contour strategy. Thanks to this, vertical and angled (35.26°) struts with low porosity (up to 0.2 %), low surface roughness and high dimensional accuracy were produced. Porosity was measured on µCT, surface roughness and dimensional accuracy were measured on STL data. The results show that if the parameters of the SLM process are set correctly, it is possible to produce struts with low porosity and surface roughness using different combinations of laser power and scanning speed. The above findings were used in the creation of script that allow the selection of suitable process parameters to produce lattice structures.
