Characteristic damage of Vehicles at Low Speed Collision
Lexová, Kristýna ; Kaluža, Zdeněk (referee) ; Tokař, Stanislav (advisor)
This thesis deals with documentation and analysis of the most common types of vehicle damage caused by collisions with fixed objects at low speeds. The characteristic damage analysis is based on performing custom crash tests using objects that are different in shape and material. Furthermore, the thesis deals with the comparison of performed crash tests with vehicle damage typical for collisions of two vehicles in so-called parking maneuvres. The analysis is then applied in the assessment of real traffic accidents, which were identified as insurance frauds during the investigation. The work can be further used as a basis for comparative databases.

Numerical analysis of visco-elastic material models
Michálková, Veronika ; Lang, Rostislav (referee) ; Trcala, Miroslav (advisor)
The serviceability of concrete structures is a multiphysical problem where viscoelasticity is interrelated with plasticity or damage, among other things. This work focuses on the analysis and testing of an isotropic viscoelastic material model based on a generalized Kelvin chain. The Kelvin chain is described in detail for 1D strain and then its application to multi-axial 2D plane strain is shown. In this paper, a total of 3 studies are carried out using the Kelvin chain. The first study concerns the analysis of the Kelvin chain with damage on several benchmark refinement problems. The second study compares the results of the Kelvin chain including damage with an experiment on a three-point beam bending problem. The third study concerns the analysis of the Kelvin chain with damage on a stress relaxation problem in a loaded concrete beam and compares the results with the ANSYS calculation and experimental measurements. The aim is to analyze the effect of the parameter on the time-dependent behavior of the concrete and also the effect of the number of time increments N on the result.

A comparative study of ultimate load and stiffness of metal-to-composite joints
Tchír, Michal ; Šebek, František (referee) ; Vrbka, Jan (advisor)
V současnosti jedna z metod spojování zejména tlustých a vysoce zatížených kompozitních komponent je šroubový spoj, který je možné rozebrat pro případ opravy na rozdíl od lepeného spoje. Kompozitní konstrukce se tradičně dimenzují tak, aby během provozu nedošlo k porušení první vrstvy laminátu, nicméně důležité je taky poznat chování laminátu po porušení první vrstvy. Pro strukturální analýzu nejenom spojů, ale také dalších komponent se používá metoda konečných prvků a protože moderní nelineání řešiče jsou schopné modelovat chování laminátu po porušení první vrstvy, tato schopnost jednoho z nich byla využita v této práci při zkoumaní chování sklolaminátu spojeného s hliníkovou částí šrouby. Konečno-prvkové modely dvou spojů kovové a kompozitní části konstrukce schopné popsat progresivní porušování laminátu byly postaveny s využitím tří různých poruchových kritérií – kritéria maximálního napětí, kritéria Hill a kritéria Tsai-Wu. Problém byl řešen s využitím řešiče Nastran. Křivky síla-posuv, tuhost-posuv a hodnoty zatížení při hraničním posuvu byly porov-nány s výsledky experimentů. Jelikož faktor zbytkové tuhosti ovlivňuje výsledky ana-lýzy progresivního porušování, byly provedeny citlivostní studie zkoumajíci vliv faktoru na přesnost a stabilitu výpočtu. Shoda výpočtu s experimentem v případe prvního šroubového spoje je méně uspokojivá, nicméně shoda v případě druhého spoje, který má zesilující tenkou ocelovou destičku na spodní straně, je podstatně lepší. Vý-borná shoda je zejména při použití interaktivních kritérií Hill a Tsai-Wu.

Analysis of Documentation of Real Damage to Vehicles in Road Accidents
Novotný, Václav ; Kovanda,, Jan (referee) ; Vémola, Aleš (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with a comprehensive analysis of the photographic documentation of vehicle damage in traffic accidents. A systematic overview of the current documentation and included inspection is carried out in the analysis. Police records are compared with records made during the crash tests. Further, the documentation in this thesis is divided into two groups of conflicts. The representative of the accidents are described in detail and then evaluated. Similarly, this procedure is practiced on other car accident that reflect the mutual deformation. The result of this thesis is to determine the optimal location of the lens for the acquisition of documentation and establishing a baseline number of photos to document damage to the vehicle after the traffic accident.

Crash-Test Data Analysis - Frontal Impacts
Mikulášková, Lucie ; Ptáček, Petr (referee) ; Bradáč, Albert (advisor)
In this thesis are solved the problematics of crash tests. It is focused primarily on front impacts with full or part overlap. In the introduction are described the best known methods used in forensic - engineering practice for determination of energy equivalent speed (EES). Exactly specified impact tests, which are part of passive safety, are being addressed by several organizations around the world. In the practical part of this diploma thesis are solved four frontal impact tests, which were documented with the participation of the Institute of Forensic Ingeneering BUT in Brno.. These impact tests were performed to capture and analyze the data, resulting in the deformation energy used for permanent damage to the vehicle. Subsequently, the EES parameters were set for each vehicle.
