Optimisation of fibre-matrix interface in ceramic matrix composite
Halasová, Martina ; Černý,, Martin (referee) ; Chlup, Zdeněk (advisor)
This thesis is concerned to the study of behaviour of fibre composites with ceramics matrix. The composite consists of pyrolysed polysiloxane matrix reinforced by ceramic fibre Nextel 720. Main aim of this work is optimisation of fibre matrix interface through the selection of suitable precursor of the matrix with respect to temperature stability, sufficient strength and reasonable fracture toughness. Samples of matrices were exposed to the long term heat treatment in the range 1100 – 1500 °C. The mechanical properties as hardness and indentation elastic modulus were determined after heat treatment. Selected precursors of matrices were used for composite fabrication. Elastic modulus and fracture toughness at room and elevated temperatures were studied. Discussion is dedicated to the description of changes in mechanical properties with respect to chemical processes taking place during high temperature exposition. Further, reasons of fracture behaviour of composite materials are discussed, and finally, gained knowledge and outlined possibilities of subsequent development are summarised.
Influence of shielding gas on weld properties of conductive laser welding of sheet from carbon steel
Kotrík, Marcel ; Sigmund, Marian (referee) ; Mrňa, Libor (advisor)
In the thesis are analysed influences of three shield gases, based on literary pursuit. Compared was influence of the gas consisting of pure Ar, mixture Ar with 3vol.% CO2 and the mixture Ar with 18vol.% CO2 on mechanical properties of conduction laser welded blunt welds made from structural steel DC01 and S235JR with thickness 3mm and 2mm. Compared were strength properties of the welds in tension, weld hardness and hardness of the heat affected area under the low stress. Further was observed and compared stream of the gases during welding process and its influences on the appearance of the trial welds. On the metallographical cuts of the welds were evaluated mistakes and dimensions of the welds.

Semi-automated assessment of micromechanical properties of the metal foams on the cell-wall level
Krčmářová, Nela ; Šleichrt, J. ; Doktor, T. ; Kytýř, Daniel ; Jiroušek, O.
Metal foams are innovative porous material used for wide range of application such as deformation energy or sound absorption, filter material, or microbiological incubation carrier. To predict mechanical properties of the metal foam is necessary to precisely describe elasto–plastic properties of the foam on cell–wall level. Indentation with low load is suitable tool for this purpose. In this paper custom designed instrumented microindentation device was used for measurement of cell-wall characteristics of two different aluminium foams (ALPORAS and ALCORAS). To demonstrate the possibility of automated statistical estimation of measured characteristics the device had been enhanced by semi-automatic indent positioning and evaluation procedures based on user-defined grid. Vickers hardness was measured on two samples made from ALPORAS aluminium foam and one sample from ALCORAS aluminium foam. Average Vickers hardness of ALPORAS foam was 24.465 HV1.019 and average Vickers hardness of ALCORAS was 36.585 HV1.019..

Stress relaxation in partially pyrolysed SiOC materials
Halasová, Martina ; Chlup, Zdeněk ; Černý, Martin ; Strachota, Adam ; Dlouhý, Ivo
This paper focuses on the difficulty with Vickers hardness evaluation of SiOC materials. To evaluate it, diagonals of an indent are crucial. Due to stress relaxation in experimental material it was not possible to evaluate it in the whole range of experimental temperatures. As experimental materials were used two types of commercialy available polysiloxane resins, pyrolysed in range from 400 to 1000°C.
Hardness distribution mapping in low carbon pipeline steel using semiautomatic evaluation of Vickers indentation measurement
Doktor, T. ; Fenclová, N. ; Kytýř, Daniel ; Valach, Jaroslav
This paper deals with evaluation of hardness fields using Vickers indentation device and a semi-automatic software tool for local hardness distribution mapping. Spec- imens from low carbon pipeline steels were investigated. Dense grids of Vickers imprints were created on the specimens’ surface. Image data of the surface were acquired by a high resolution flatbed scanner with resolution 6400 dpi. The imprints were measured using an custom-developed image processing tool, and from the obtained geometrical characteristics local hardness values were derived. From the local hardness values and their coordinates the hardness field in the whole specimen was interpolated.
