Age forming of aluminium alloys
Stanislav, Filip ; Petrásek, Miloslav (referee) ; Klement, Josef (advisor)
The diploma thesis is focused on the description and the verification of a relatively young creep age forming method. This method is based on a relaxation of stress and a creep of material, which occur by forming a part in the clamping tool during the artificial precipitation heat treatment at elevated temperature. After removing from the tool, the spring back and the residual stresses in the part are smaller compared to the conventional forming methods. This is mainly reflected in the increased fatigue resistance of the structure. The creep aging is only applicable to the precipitation heat treatable alloys. This thesis is focused on aluminium alloys, which are typical for the aerospace industry. The first part of the thesis describes principles of technology, its use in the aviation and material processes in the aluminium precipitation heat treatable alloys during the creep age forming. In the second part, there is a methodology of the verification of technology on samples made of the aluminium alloys ČSN EN AL-P 7075 and ČSN 424203 (approximate equivalent of ČSN EN AL-P 2024). Furthermore, a forming tool is designed, and experiments are performed according to the proposed methodology. At the end of the thesis, the experiments are evaluated and changes in the spring back of the samples are compared for three different methods of forming: the conventional cold clamping forming, the creep age forming and the creep age forming with an overaging.

Motorcycle Springing and Damping System
Filka, Tomáš ; Vančura, Jan (referee) ; Blaťák, Ondřej (advisor)
This thesis consists of theoretical overview about motorcycle chassis and suspension systems as well as information about springs and dampers. It is also focused on practical usage of multibody simulation for motorcycle suspension testing which leads to the development of series of virtual riding tests built within MSC Adams View software environment. Then the results are further discussed together with suggestions for future improvement of this model.

Design of Formula Student Wheel Suspensions
Urban, Marek ; Fojtášek, Jan (referee) ; Porteš, Petr (advisor)
Tato práce se se zabývá návrhem kinematiky zavěšení kol obou náprav. Na základě analýz jízdních dat, multi-body simulací v softwaru Adams Car, simulací v Matlabu a analytických kalkulací v Mathcadu, je navržena řada změn s cílem zlepšit jízdní vlastnosti vozu Formule student, tyto změny jsou následně implementovány do CAD modelu vozu. Jednotlivé změny kinematiky náprav jsou provedeny na základě analýzy konkrétního problému, který se snaží řešit. Jednou z problematik je zástavbová náročnost systému odpružení a zavěšení zadních kol, zde je cílem snížit hmotnost, výšku těžiště a moment setrvačnosti. Další problematikou je geometrie předního kola, kde je cílem zlepšit využití pneumatik a snížit síly v řízení. Dále se práce zabývá simulacemi elastokinematiky zadní nápravy, součástí je také návrh měřícího zařízení. V poslední části je zkoumán vliv provedených změn i elastokinematiky na jízdní dynamiku vozu v ustálených stavech za pomocí MM metody simulované s modelem celého vozu v Adams Car a zpracované v Matlabu.

Adaptive control of magnetorheological dampers
Míša, Jiří ; Porteš, Petr (referee) ; Zháňal, Lubor (advisor)
The topic of this master´s thesis is the design of adaptive damping algorithm for the prototype magnetorheological dampers, which are used for Formula Student vehicle. The prime output is the development and optimization of the control algorithm which included usage of the MBS software and real data from race track. Temperature compensation to supress the effect of dynamic viscosity of magnetorheological fluid due to the increase in operating temperature and testing of the vertical dynamic of the car on 4 - post test rig was realized as well. The main goal was to obtain better control of the car in transient situations and increase usability of tires via changes in damping based on actual conditions and status of the vehicle.

The Use of Inerter in Vehicle Design
Lanzendörfer, Tomáš ; Hejtmánek, Petr (referee) ; Blaťák, Ondřej (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the inerter application in vehicle’s suspension. The aim was to perform a theoretical analysis of its features, to compare its construction layouts, to create a multibody model of the car’s suspension and to analyse inerter’s effects while performing different driving manoeuvres. All analyses were performed by MSC Adams View software with a little support from Matlab. The quality of ride comfort and accessible traction force were increased by the inerter almost in every case, and dynamic load of the suspension was also decreased in some cases. The inerter is a device with high potential, but with high purchase costs as well, so further development and practical research is necessary.

Design jig bending of thin sheets
Šrotíř, Petr ; Štroner, Marek (referee) ; Dvořák, Milan (advisor)
The aim of this master´s thesis is the design, proposal and production of a functional jig for technological testing of metal sheet by bending in the pre-production stage to the limit bend radius of the steel sheet up to a thickness of 2 mm, or in case of non-ferrous metal to a thickness of 3 mm. The required bending angle is in the range from zero to ninety degrees. The functionality of the jig will be verified by a practical testing of springing. The proposal will be supported by technological and economic calculations and technical - economic evaluation.

Design of conventional motorcycle swingarm made from aluminum alloy
Adlof, Michal ; Tobiáš, Martin (referee) ; Zháňal, Lubor (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the proposal of the swingarm from aluminium alloys. The theoretical part is devoted to a closer description of the swingarm. Here, the older ways of wheel deposition are described, followed by a comparison of the four basic variations of the swinging forks. The practical part of the thesis is then focused on the design overhaul of the steel swingarm. In the next part, the calculations of forces and stress analysis are presented. Subsequently, the original steel and redesigned aluminium swingarm are compared. And finally, the complete drawing documentation needed for the production can be found in the annex.
