Properties and the Use of Metal Foams
Křivánek, Robin ; Liškutín, Petr (referee) ; Němec, Karel (advisor)
In this thesis are summarized the findings of metal foams, with prevailing constraints on aluminum foam, because in them hides the greatest potential. The first part is described the production of porous materials, especially the way of floam production by thermal decomposition of floaming agent and melt gas injection. There are also written stress tests to gain a deeper knowledge of their properties, but also the latest exploring methods of foams, such as using a radioscopiy and CT scanner from which then creates a voxel model of foam. They are summarized here the basic ways of processing. Finally we must mention the possibility of using these materials with a focus on commercially produced foams Alporas® and Duocel®. Mass using foams mainly prevents high production costs and in some cases difficult reproducibility of properties.
Pulse anodization of aluminium for nanoporous structures creation.
Bačová, Veronika ; Magát, Martin (referee) ; Hubálek, Jaromír (advisor)
Předkládaná práce se zabývá nalezením vhodných podmínek pro výrobu nanaporézní struktury na tenké hliníkové vrstvě. V této práci jsou popsány postupy výroby nanoporézních struktur a jejich přípravou. Vznikly póry o rozměrech 5–20 nm. Byla zkoumána závislosti proudové hustoty v zavislosti na přiloženém pulzu. Všechny výsledky byly zkoumány pomocí SEM analýzy. Byla použita cyklická volatmetrie pro stanovení redukčního napětí při depozici niklu a zlata.

Fire resistance is becoming increasingly important along with the development of new concrete types with high strength and dense structure with reduced porosity. Such concrete types are susceptible to fire spalling and extensive crack formation. At the moment, there are a limited number of methods for enhancement of fire resistance of existing structures, which could be applied in underground structures with restricted space and limited air exchange, such as tunnels, underground garages or nuclear powerplants. This work is focused on the development of two methods, and both are dealing with porous structure modification. The first method is intentional heat treatment (IHT) method, suitable for the enhancement of fire resistance of existing structures. The second method emphasized the design of air-entrained concrete (AeA-FiResCrete) with the use of “new generation” air-entraining agents suitable for enhancement of fire resistance of newly designed concrete. Testing of compressive strength, porous structure modification was completed by the analysis of “moisture clog,” which contributes to explosive spalling and extensive cracking. The efficiency of developing methods was verified during large-scale testing according to modified ISO834 (m-ISO) curve. No extensive crack formation or explosive spalling was observed during the exposure period during the large-scale testing of slabs with the applied IHT method. The total thickness of the IHT method with configuration IHT200/2, composed of IHT zone and IHT transition zone, penetrated to the depth of 25,5 to 43,0 mm depending upon various concrete types. Moisture clog in AeA-FiResCrete was more significant than in the case of slabs with applied IHT method, and it could be concluded that the IHT method enhances fire resistance of concrete exposed to elevated temperatures without influencing its compressive strength and durability. Results from AeA-FiResCrete testing showed only a slight improvement of its fire resistance.
Issues of experimental determination of concrete moisture
Vaněk, Dominik ; Přikryl, Jan (referee) ; Sedlmajer, Martin (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis studies issues of moisture determination in concrete. First part describes the relationship between moisture and concrete structure. Second part is dedicated to methodology of concrete moisture determination and also to an own experiment. Main focus of thesis is to evaluate the accuracy and relevance of selected methods of determining the concrete moisture.
