Determination of the elastic characteristics of highly-porous materials by means of the impulse excitation technique
Kollmann, Marek ; Lošák, Petr (referee) ; Ševeček, Oldřich (advisor)
The bachelor thesis dealt with the application of pulse excitation technique (IET) to determine the elastic characteristics of highly-porous materials. The first part explained the principle of this method together with the arguments for use outside the conditions given by the standard. In the next part, a model of foam structure with open porosity based on Kelvin cell was created in ANSYS software. The influence of porosity and cell size on its elastic characteristics was determined on the model. It was showed to agree with the theory according to Gibson and Ashby. The result of the work was the evaluation of the possibility of using IET to determine these characteristics, these results were then compared with the experimental values. It turned out that the IET provides the correct information about the stiffness of the model.
Comparison of selected parameters of tensile strength of concrete
Rozsypalová, Iva ; Žítt, Petr (referee) ; Daněk, Petr (advisor)
The thesis deals with a comparison of the selected strength tension properties of the hardened concrete and finding relationships between them. This is essentially a simple tensile strength, tensile flexural strength and tensile splitting strength. The text describe the testing procedures to determine the tensile strength of concrete. Furthermore, there are presented the results of testing on different types of concrete (plain concrete, lightweight concrete, steel-fiber concrete, polymer-fibre concrete and high strength concrete). The conclusion deals with the derivation of dependancy between concrete strengths and comparing the values obtained from the available relations with the results of the tests.
Determination of mechanical characteristics of coatings using impulse excitation technique
Valášek, Daniel ; Řehořek, Lukáš (referee) ; Válka, Libor (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the determination of the Young’s modulus of coatings using the impulse excitation technique (IET). The theoretical part of the thesis describes Cold and Thermal Spray technology, theoretical foundations of the impulse excitation technique and models of composite materials. The experimental part of the thesis deals with the determination of the tensile modulus of copper coating created by Cold Spray technology. The impulse excitation technique has been used to measure fifteen samples with coating thickness ranging approximately from 0,4 to 2 mm. Results from this measurement were evaluated using five composite models to establish the Young’s modulus of the applied coating. The best results were achieved by using the composite model based on rule of mixtures (ROM).
Determination of the mechanical properties of the multilayer structure materials with utilization of the sonic resonance method and modal FE analysis
Fodor, Ján ; Lošák, Petr (referee) ; Ševeček, Oldřich (advisor)
Thesis deals with determination of layerwise mechanical properties of composite ceramics by indirect method, namely Youngs modulus. Based on literature review, it was found that a method to determine elastic properties of one or more components of multi layered composites based on experimental modal analysis and finite element modal analysis, or analytical approach exists. Method based on FE modal analysis was applied to ceramic laminate, where it was attempt to determine youngs modulus of one component. Beyond that, it was attempt to determine Youngs moduli of both components using first two bending resonant frequencies. Results were unsatisfying. Sensitivity analysis showed that layers with unknown Youngs modulus were overly sensitive to small changes in input parameters due to their small relative thickness with respect to thickness of laminate and due to location in laminate. Based on this conclusion, recommendations were made with respect to suitable geometry of test specimens.
