Design of a new version of a trolley and docking station for channel racks
Pastrnková, Markéta ; Vepřek, Jiří (referee) ; Vosynek, Petr (advisor)
The master's thesis deals with the analysis of the current version of the trolley and the docking station of the channel racks and the design of modifications. The theoretical part describes the components of the storage channel system. There is also explained principle of pallet storage in this part. In the following chapter, several variants of the design of the lifting mechanism of the lifting platform are elaborated. The work also presents static structural analysis of the current version of the trolley and docking station, parametric study and topological optimization of one of the components. Static structural analyzes were partially solved in the finite element software RFEM by Dlubal Software s.r.o company, and mainly in the software ANSYS Workbench 2020 R2 by ANSYS, Inc. company.

Proposal of topology of piezoceramic composite sensor
Dostal, Vojtěch ; Ševeček, Oldřich (referee) ; Majer, Zdeněk (advisor)
This master thesis deals with design and numerical modelling of piezoceramic sensor, which is placed on a rail, in order to generate electrical energy, which can be used for wireless monitoring of railway traffic and to monitor the condition of the railway. The thesis is divided into three parts. Theoretically background of piezoelectric energy harvesting is described in first part, where some previous application of piezoelectric generator in railway area are shown. In the second part, parametric analysis of numerical model is performed, which directly leads to finding best location on a rail, where piezoelectric generator should be placed. For this analysis the homogenized model of MFC sensor was used. Results of the numerical model were then compared with the results of the conducted experiment. The third part presented own design of piezoceramic sensor, which is placed onto most suitable location on a rail. Results from numerical analysis shown eligibility of using piezoceramic sensor to monitor the railway traffic.

Numerical analysis of selected silicate based composites shrinkage
Drbušková, Magdaléna ; Vlk, Zbyněk (referee) ; Keršner, Zbyněk (advisor)
The thesis is divided into two main parts. In the first theoretical part is described the problems of shrinking including a comparison of Czech standard and Model Code 2010, Vol. 1. The second practical part of the master`s thesis is focused on the numerical analysis shrinkage primarily on the initial stage of this process. The experimentally obtained data are set approximations of the relative deformation using ShrCeC. Subsequently the numerical simulation of shrinkage of selected silicate specimens using a computer applications SpatiDist and FyDiK 2D. The real test specimens are modelled as two-component composite consisting of cement paste and aggregates. The result is a parametric study takes into account the influence of type and size of grain aggregate.

Calculation program for heat exchanger design
Švec, Dalibor ; Baláš, Marek (referee) ; Pospíšil, Jiří (advisor)
The diploma thesis is focused on creating a calculation software for designing heat exchanger. The software will not calculate one single heat exchanger but will recommend all heat exchangers which meet the requirements. Then, user can decide which heat exchanger is best suited for the specific application and make a comprehensive calculation. Part of the diploma thesis is to verify correctness of the software and make a parametric studies. Parametric studies will be focused on baffle cut, baffle spacing, tube pitch, and tube thickness and its effect on heat transfer and pressure drop.

Biomass gasification model
Studený, Vojtěch ; Baláš, Marek (referee) ; Milčák, Pavel (advisor)
Mathematical models of gasification are suitable for predicting gas composition and its properties. The aim of the diploma thesis is to compile a mathematical model for biomass gasification. The first part deals with the description of gasification and the technologies used. Theoretical part consists of the search of modeling methods. Other theoretical part is devoted to the description of the model and equations presented in the thesis. Part of the assignment is a parametric study that shows changes in gas production and its properties when changing the parameters. Finally, the model is compared with the data obtained in the experiment on the fluid reactor biofluid 2.

Effects of hydrogen addition to natural gas on steam boiler operating parameters
Kocman, Lukáš ; Skála, Zdeněk (referee) ; Baláš, Marek (advisor)
This work deals with the influence of hydrogen addition to natural gas on the parameters of steam boiler operation. In the first part of the work, a steam boiler for natural gas is designed, which is then recalculated for natural gas with a volume concentration of hydrogen in the range of 5–50 %. Calculations for individual concentrations were performed in the Mathcad program and were placed in the appendices. Finally, the results are summarized and commented.

The use of advanced composite materials for the design of concrete structures
Bártová, Denisa ; Matušíková, Anna (referee) ; Girgle, František (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the design of FRP reinforced concrete structures. The theoretical part is focused mainly on the punching shear of a flat two way slab according to ACI, fib Bulletin, CSA, and JSCE standards. This thesis also includes a description of the punching shear resistance according to Eurocode 2. FRP reinforcement, its mechanical properties, and their behaviour in time are also described. Next, a parametric study was performed that examines the effects of various parameters on the punching shear resistance according to the standards mentioned above. At the end a non-linear analysis using the ATENA software was performed. The practical part includes a structural design of a flat two way slab. The slab uses a steel reinforcement at the bottom, while the top is reinforced with FRP reinforcement. The punching shear design is also included. In the last chapter the serviceability limit state is checked, specifically the slab long-term deflection. The thesis also includes drawings. All calculations were performed in accordance with Eurocode 2 and fib Bulletin No. 40.

Software support in creating a complex calculation tool
Zich, Jan ; Jegla, Zdeněk (referee) ; Kilkovský, Bohuslav (advisor)
The master’s thesis is focused on the calculation of a heat exchanger with a crossflowed tube bundle found most in the air-cooled heat exchangers. The knowledge gained from the literature search is used to create libraries, giving a choice of several different methods in the hydraulic and thermal calculation as well as other key areas. These libraries allow their implementation in the comprehensive computational software P.E.C. developed at the Institute of Process Engineering. The thesis includes a verification of the correctness of the library’s calculations with showcased problems as well as 2 parametric studies. These investigate the dependencies of the transverse and longitudinal pitch on some of the process parameters of the heat exchanger.
