The AmBe Laboratory Neutron Source Field Determination Using Experimental Stend
Jelínek, Martin ; Šťastný, Ondřej (referee) ; Katovský, Karel (advisor)
This master’s thesis provides a comprehensive overview of the conventional neutron sources from the perspective of reactions which lead to the production of neutrons, advantages, disadvantages, properties and their possible utilization. In the relation to the assembly of the laboratory neutron source and the unique experimental stand “Candle” basic methods of the neutron field analysis are outlined and two of them, the neutron activation analysis and the calculation using the MCNP software code are discussed in depth to apply and compare these methods. The experimental part deals with the realization of neutron activation analysis from its design itself, through gamma spectrometry to the cadmium ratio calculation. In compliance with the measurements, a calculation with MCNP code was run and both methods were evaluated and compared. The computation is complemented with the analysis of radiation situation on the borders of the supervised area, which is compared to the legal limit.

Analysis of uncertainties in the calculation of residual stresses
Dubravec, Kristián ; Houfek, Lubomír (referee) ; Návrat, Tomáš (advisor)
This thesis is about analysis of uncertainties in the calculation of residual stresses, which are homogeneous and measured by the hole-drilling method. Stochastic approach is explained using models of beams. Theory of residual stresses is included. Source code for evaluating residual stresses deterministically and stochastically is created using the Python language. Sensitivity analysis of input parameters is performed.

Wind action on high-rise buildings
Damek, Marek ; Eliáš, Jan (referee) ; Nevařil, Aleš (advisor)
This thesis is focusing on comparison two approaches wind actions on high rise buildings. Determinist approach will consider by norm ČSN EN 1991-1-4. Stochastic approach by real wind speeds and synthetic generate wind speeds. Wind as a random value, variable on time and height. Model of water tower will use for the comparison.
