Deformation and stress analysis of the parts of the total replacement of the trapeziometacarpal joint
Svojanovský, Tomáš ; Marcián, Petr (referee) ; Fuis, Vladimír (advisor)
The presented diploma thesis builds on author’s bachelor’s thesis of the similar name which was focused, in particular, on rhizarthrosis. Because of this joint disease, implantations of the total joint replacement are performed. The bachelor’s thesis also served as a familiarization with the finite element method and contact analyses issues, giving a theoretical framework for this diploma thesis. As opposed to that, the diploma thesis aims entirely at deformation and stress analysis of the total replacement. The main objective is to carry out analyses of different variants of geometric models. In addition, there is a tendency to analyze contact pressures of advanced model concerning all the total replacement, bone tissues, ligaments and tendons guaranteeing the static equilibrium of components. The bachelor’s thesis has been developed in ANSYS Workbench, whereas the diploma thesis in ANSYS APDL. Work in APDL allows user to control better over the entire computational process, however, requires more skills and theoretic knowledge. Contact analyses bring a lot of problems associated with convergence of procedures and accuracy of results. Therefore, explanations of important terms and set of recommendations are included for the purpose of easier solving of the contact problems.
Creep analysis of HP inner casing DSPWR – contact task
Kopačka, Ján ; Masák, Jan ; Gabriel, Dušan ; Plešek, Jiří
The report summarizes results of the 3rd stage of the creep analysis of Doosan Škoda Power high-pressure inner casing. An analysis of the high-pressure inner casing is carried out with respect to the contact boundary conditions in the division plane and the use of a complex creep material model. The results of the PMD contact analysis are compared to the measured values and also compared with the ANSYS program where the Norton-Bailey model of creep was used.

Frictionless contact of elastic bodies: comparison of treatment in finite element analysi and isogeometric analysis
Kopačka, Ján ; Kolman, Radek ; Gabriel, Dušan ; Plešek, Jiří
Artificial oscillations in contact force due to non-smooth contact surface are treated by isogeometric analysis (IGA). After brief overview of B-splines and Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) representation, the mortar-based contact algorithm is presented in the frictionless small deformation regime. Contact constraints are regularized by penalty method. The contact algorithm is tested by means of contact patch test.
