Computer modeling of twin-boundaries in shape memory alloys
Heczko, Martin ; Pokluda, Jaroslav (referee) ; Zelený, Martin (advisor)
This Master‘s thesis is focused on theoretical study of twinning in magnetic shape memory alloys based on Ni2MnGa using ab initio calculations of electronic structure within the projector augmented wave method. In particular, the effect of increasing concentration of manganese at the expense of gallium was studied on total energy and stress profiles along different deformation paths in the (10-1)[101] shear system of non-modulated martensite. Further, this work deals with the effect of the concentration of manganese on the energy of planar fault caused by presence of partial dislocation due to motion of twin boundary. The results show that the shear modulus in studied shear system increases with the increasing concentration of manganese as well as energy barrier and deformation characteristics along shear deformation paths increases, which makes the shear more difficult in Mn-rich alloys. Increasing concentration of manganese also leads to rising the planar fault energy. All these effects can be responsible for lower mobility of twin boundaries in alloys with higher concentration of manganese.

Deformační analýza kmene při kácení
Veselý, Jiří
This work deals with strain analysis of tree during felling. The main goal is to describe the origin of the deformation field. Another aim is to explain the effect of individual cuts on the size of deformation forces. Two relatively new methods in the field of wood are used to investigate the experimentally, namely digital image correlation (DIC) and finite element method. The work deals with methodical foundations for tree research during its felling. The DIC method measured seven trees in the forest when felling. Using the results obtained by this experiment, the numerical model was validated. This comparison suggested higher rigidity of the body using the finite element method compared to the actual tree, but the reaction was similar. With respect to the higher stiffness, the model was used to describe the deformation field inside the tree and to describe the effect of each cut on this field. The thesis also draws attention to the methodological errors that can occur during felling and which have been described in the experiment. Another output is an indication of the direction in which further measurements should be made and the errors that occurred during this measurement to avoid repetition.
