Analysis of tonal inharmonic spectra
Sztefek, Jiří ; Mojdl, Edgar (referee) ; Jirásek, Ondřej (advisor)
The bachelor thesis focuses on the spectral analysis of samples of tonal inharmonic instruments and their spectra, with a detailed focus on the present overtones, their properties, waveforms, relationships and numerical ratios between each other, interval types and categorization into critical bandwidths. Eight samples of acoustic and five samples of artificial instruments were analysed as part of the work. The analysis of the samples was performed using Fourier transform in MATLAB with a focus on FFT spectra and spectrogram. The results of the work are intended for musicians or scientists concerned with inharmonic components in sound and their properties.

Ablation chamber for a combination of LIBS and LA-ICP-MS techniques
Sovadina, Petr ; Kuchynka, Michaela (referee) ; Novotný, Jan (advisor)
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (LA-ICP-MS) are spectroscopic techniques that use a pulsed laser to ablate the material in their analysis. Although LA-ICP-MS can reach a much lower detection limit than LIBS, it is not able to detect elements of organic compounds, halogens, and noble gases. By combining these two spectroscopic techniques, it is possible to overcome these shortcomings, to analyze all elements with LIBS, and also to analyze with a lower detection limit with LA-ICP-MS. To perform this combination of spectroscopic techniques, it was necessary to design an ablation chamber that would simultaneously support both LIBS and LA-ICP-MS measurements. The design of the ablation chamber consists of the mechanical design, the simulation of the gas flow inside the chamber, and finally its fabrication and assembly.

MIDI transducer design and cymbal colour upgrade with artificial components
Pospíšil, Martin ; Buzzi, Mário (referee) ; Jirásek, Ondřej (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with MIDI transducer design and cymbal color innovation with artificial components. The goal of the thesis was to design and fabricate a converter that converts audio signals from cymbals to the MIDI standard while capturing the widest dynamic range. Furthermore, a spectral analysis of several types of cymbals was performed and a program was created that adds artificial components such as filtered noise and additive inharmonic clusters to their acoustic color. The result of this work is a working prototype MIDI transducer and a program implemented in NI Reaktor software that allows the creation of acoustic presets with the upgraded cymbal color. The work met the stated objectives and provided a basis for further development in this area.

Spectral analysis of historical pianos
Pokorný, Marek ; Indrák, Michal (referee) ; Jirásek, Ondřej (advisor)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the spectral analysis of historical pianos in aim to identify and compare their acoustic and spectral characteristics. Three examples of pianos were analysed, including a significant piano owned by the composer Leoš Janáček. The analysis was performed on measured piano samples using Fourier transformation in MATLAB, with an emphasis on spectral parameters such as spectral centroid, flatness, skewness, sharpness and roughness, and on the visual representation of a spectrum over time -- the spectrogram. The results of the spectral analysis were used to interpret and evaluate differences in timbre of the pianos and their probable causes. The theoretical part of the thesis provides a brief overview of the history and design of the piano, explains the spectral descriptors used, and examines the properties of musical tones and the influence of psychoacoustics on the perception of pitch and timbre.

Multimedia language support of DSP in German
Škůrek, Pavel ; Vídenka, Rostislav (referee) ; Sigmund, Milan (advisor)
The aim of the work is to provide a German speaking student with a simple and well-arranged list of terms, that appear in the sphere of mathematics, physics and the digital signal processing. Each terms are not explained in a difficult way. Mostly, there is only the basic definition, what the term means, or his function. This mean that this work can´t be taken as a textbook, but only a first aid for a funbling student. The work id divided into 3 databases. The first database Mathematik contains the list of all mathematical terms and relations at the level of secondary school. The database contains these chapters: Grundbegriffe, Mathematische Logik, Funktion, Trigonometrie des rechtwinkligen Dreiecks, kongruennte Darstellung im Ebene, ähnliche Darstellung im Ebene, Trigonometrie, komplexen Zahlen, Logarithmus, Vektor, analytische Geometrie, Folge, Differenzrechnung und Integralgleichung, Matrizen, Determinante, Kombinatorik a Wahrscheinlichkeit. The second database Physik contains the basic physical quantities, the student should know before entering the university. The database contains these chapters: Kinematik, Dynamik, Mechanik der starken Körper, Mechanik der Flüssigkeit, Elektizität, Magnetismus, Optik and Thermodynamik. The last database DSP is divided into 4 parts. It is divided by functionals blocks of each transmission and it is explaining each terms. They are Antialiasing, Analog-digital Wandler, Digital-analog Wandler and Spektral analysis. By this database, there is well-arranged czech - german and german - czech dictionary. These 3 databases are worked by the programm C++ Builder. The user can open each databese separately. All databases contain functions like for example searching, viewing the terms by tree structure, similar themes and so on. In the last database the user can add and change his own terms.

DC arc extinguishing in low voltage switching devices for critical currents
Fencl, Martin ; Šimek, David (referee) ; Píška, Jakub (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with DC arc extinguishing for critical currents. The first, theoretical part describes and defines an arc, a DC arc and methods of its extinguishing. The second, theoretical part concerns spectral analysis – specifically, the emission method. Methods of research of extinguishing critical currents are also presented. The practical part consists of two measurements. The first measurement consists of spectrum measuring in time, in conjunction with voltage and current measurements. In the second measurement, the goal was to measure the dependence of arc burning time on voltage and current. The thesis concludes with summary of the results of each individual measurement and their presentation in the wider context.
