Magnesium castings and their applications
Škriečková, Natália ; Kaňa, Václav (referee) ; Pernica, Vítězslav (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on summarizing the knowledge about magnesium and magnesium alloys and their use in various industries. In the introductory part, the beneficial properties of this metal, its alloys and methods of production are highlighted. The second part is focused on castings of these alloys, where we describe their preparation and the actual casting process in various ways. Based on previous research, we evaluate the development of the use of these alloys in various industries such as automotive, aerospace and electrical engineering, as well as modern use in medicine. Last but not least, we criticize the positives and negatives of the entire process of production of final parts in terms of environmental impact.

Application of magnesium alloys castings
Pernica, Vítězslav ; Liškutín, Petr (referee) ; Roučka, Jaromír (advisor)
Magnesium alloys are still idle in technical applications because of their properties. The history of metal is not very old, the first application of its alloy started on the beginning of the 20th century. Magnesium is very light. Its weight is about one third less than the weight of aluminum and it is the third most frequented structural metal. However its preparation and processing can be problematical because magnesium has high affinity to oxygen. It causes intensive burning. During the century of stature have been improved both production and alloys. The usage of magnesium alloys took more importance and it is the most used alloy in automotive field sofar. Recently its demand expands mainly in electrotechnics. Next usage we can find in aeronautics, energetics, military and many other branches.
