Reliability Analysis of Steel Columns with Encased Web in High Strength Concrete under Compression
Puklický, Libor ; Krejsa,, Martin (referee) ; Melcher, Jindřich (referee) ; Kala, Zdeněk (advisor)
The presented paper deals with a theoretical analysis of the ultimate limit state. The results of experimental research carried out at the Institute of Metal and Timber Structures headed by Assoc. Prof. Karmazinová and Professor Melcher were applied. The geometrically and materially nonlinear solution based on the Timošenko’s solution is verified by the FEM model in the computer programme system ANSYS. The random influence of initial imperfections is taken into consideration. The FEM model also includes the influence of residual stress. In the parametric study, the influence of residual stress on the cross-section plastification is researched into, its influence on the load carrying capacity limit is, together with the influence of other imperfections, the subject of the stochastic analysis, applying the Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS). Further on, the study proves a direct effect of the concrete part of the cross-section (combination of materials steel-concrete) on the decrease of load carrying capacity limit of the beam caused by influence of the residual stress of steel. With regard to the importance of time dependent phenomena of the concrete creep for the load carrying capacity, the studies given in the Ph.D. thesis are oriented in this respect. The parametric studies of the influence of the concrete creep having applied the Standard Eurocode 2 provide both a comparison of load carrying capacity limits when using common and high-strength concrete types, and also the variability of load carrying capacities. It follows from the comparison of the statistical analysis outputs according to the design reliability conditions of the Standard EN1990 and of the approach of Eurocode 4 that the Eurocode 4 can be recommended for dimensioning of this member type. According to the studies which we carried out, the design in compliance with Eurocode 4 can be evaluated as the reliable one. A larger set of experimental data is necessary to determine the economy.

Zajíček, Vít ; Hlavoň, Pavel (referee) ; Vlk, Miloš (advisor)
This thesis focuses on the comparison of numerical simulation and optical measurement of deformation of the turbinehousing made by Honeywell company. The numerical calculation performed by finite element method to simulate transient thermal load on the measured entity. Numerical result of the strain state of the body caused by temperature gradients. To verify the simulation is used an experimental digital correlation method VIC-3D. The thesis also mentioned the theoretical foundations of digital correlation methods and thermal analysis.

Problems of Reliability of Steel Members Sensitive to Imperfections
Nezbedová, Anna ; Lehký, David (referee) ; Kala, Zdeněk (advisor)
This thesis deals with the problems of reliability of steel members sensitive to imperfections. Formulas for nonlinear analysis of compressed and bended members are derived. For compressed elements, there is described the issue of buckling, for bended elements it is lateral-torsional buckling. Then a statistical analysis of reliability of these problems is performed and also comparison with the approach described in Eurocode 3.

Nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete walls
Jurášek, Lubomír ; Vymlátil,, Petr (referee) ; Hradil, Petr (advisor)
Master thesis is based on a doctor thesis dealing with the behavior of reinforced concrete elements stressed shear by the author Ing. Stanislav Martinec, Ph.D. Author master thesis has the task create a spatial finally element model loading testing construction and researched the wall element. Defined finally elements model is mainly to provide proper interaction test device steel frame with the test wall element. Need for sufficiently detailed numerical analysis is necessary to define the non-linear concrete material model, that is researched element, using the extensions multiPlas for calculation software Ansys. The key output parameters, for comparison with the results of load tests, are total bevel and maximum level of applied force on the wall element. The goal is assess the effect of a steel frame, contained in finally element model, to output parameters for by non-linear numerical analysis.

Life-time assessment of bridge based on nonlinear analysis and degradation modelling
Kucek, Martin ; Lehký, David (referee) ; Novák, Drahomír (advisor)
The aim of this work is to calculate the lifetime period of the bridge construction based on the nonlinear analysis and the degradation modelling. As a solution was the probabilistic nonlinear finite element analysis. The nonlinear numerical analysis is provided by the programme ATENA, developed by the Červenka Consulting. We have modeled one prefabricated bridge beam KA-73, which was overloaded by power effects until the structure was damaged. Observed limit states, limit state of the decompression, crack formation and limit state of the bearing were compared with characteristic material. It is possible to determine the maximum weighted capacity for the given construction based on discovered values.

Nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete structures
Král, Petr ; Salajka, Vlastislav (referee) ; Hradil, Petr (advisor)
The aim is to design and evaluate nonlinear beams analysis, which will be subjected by four – point bending. Nonlinear analysis will be performed and evaluated on three beam models, the first of which will be made from plain concrete, the second of which will be made from reinforced concrete with reinforcement bars in the domain of tensile stress and the third of which will be made from reinforced concrete with reinforcement bars in domains of tensile and compressive stress. The thesis will be included formation of appropriate FE models, performance of nonlinear calculations with using nonlinear material model from a library of nonlinear material models multiPlas in the programming environment of software ANSYS and subsequent evaluation of results. Evaluation of results will consist from evaluation of nonlinear beams analysis and from evaluation of beams analysis according to ČSN EN 1992 – 1 – 1 without reinforcement bars and with reinforcement bars in these variants, next from comparison of nonlinear beams analysis with a beams analysis according to ČSN EN 1992 – 1 – 1 and finally from evaluation of the yield condition, which will be applied to the beams.

Study of influence of input parameters for the numerical modeling of the compression test
Polách, Marek ; Keršner, Zbyněk (referee) ; Lehký, David (advisor)
The thesis analyses influence of input parametres of the 3D Non Linear Cementitious 2 material model for the numerical modeling of compression test performed in ATENA 2D and ATENA 3D software. The aim is to identify parametres with considerable influence and subsequently replicate the load-deflection curve obtained from laboratory compression test by numerical modeling. The effects of selected model and material model settings are studied on three kind of models in total. As tools for analyzing the effects, deterministic and statistic sensitivity analyses were chosen. Parametres with significant influence will be highlighted and added to the group of parametres obtained from numerical modeling of three-point bending test. This will create a set of parametres of considerable influence when it comes to modeling advanced structures with different types of stresses.

Nezbedová, Anna ; Vlk, Zbyněk (referee) ; Kala, Zdeněk (advisor)
This paper deals with the nonlinear response of steel structures to static loads. There are formulas derived for nonlinear analysis compressed, bended and tension members. By compressed elements, there is described the issue of buckling, by the bended, it is lateral-torsional buckling and tension elements are cables. As an example there is an calculation of a suspension two spans pedestrian steel bridge under load action of asymetrical loads. As another possible calculation process, the finite elements method is described.
