Numerical modeling of failure of a particle composite with ceramic matrix
Kosorín, Michal ; Hrstka, Miroslav (referee) ; Majer, Zdeněk (advisor)
Subcritical crack growth in composite materials plays quite an important role in determination of the service life and leads to the defects growth below the fracture toughness. The thesis presents search of the several scientific works dealing with the determination of the crack growth direction in composite materials. The aim of this diploma thesis was to create 2D and 3D finite element models to analyse crack growth in Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics (LTCC). These models were compared based on the time calculation of the crack propagation under the subcritical growth conditions.

Optimization of Cavity Fabrication in Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics
Dóczy, Robert ; Somer, Jakub (referee) ; Štekovič, Michal (advisor)
This work deals with the fabrication of closed cavities in Low Temperature Co-Fired Ceramics (LTCC). In recent years, the LTCC ceramics have become widely used in the areas of sensors, MEMS and micro-fluidic applications. When fabricating such devices, it is important that the cavities maintain their compactness and dimensions after the manufacturing process . This is achieved primarily with the right choice of lamination process and its parameters and also by appropriate setting of the firing profile. The theoretical part describes the various steps in the production of LTCC structures and the most common technological processes used for creating structures with cavities and micro - channels . In the practical part are selected laminating procedures performed on the test pattern, which contains cavities of different sizes. Emphasis was placed on the correct execution of each method , while gradually modifying the lamination parameters. The achieved results are further discussed in terms of process parameters and their influence on the dimensions of manufactured cavities.

Cold Chemical Lamination of Low Temperatue Co-fired Ceramics
Jurásek, Matěj ; Somer, Jakub (referee) ; Štekovič, Michal (advisor)
This paper deals with production of the structures fabricated using low temperature co-fired ceramics. Focus is on the lamination of raw ceramic tapes. There are presented classical thermo-compressive methods and a new method using chemical solutions for tape bonding. Describes new lamination technology and their advantages are the absence of elevated temperatures and high pressures. This method reduces using of higher temperatures and high pressure during lamination. On the other hand, chemical process of tape bonding is not flawless. There are many problems including solvent deposition, extreme sensitivity to dust and other processing parameters. It also describes the fabrication of structures by chemical way. Specifically, analyzes the method Cold Chemical Lamination and provides examples of possible deposition solvents which are needed for etching the surface of the LTCC tape during the lamination.
