System analysis of braking truck - trailer combination
Haring, Andrej ; Kubjatko,, Tibor (referee) ; Řehák,, Miloslav (referee) ; Semela, Marek (advisor)
The dissertation deals with the issue of braking of articulated vehicles, especially articulated vehicles consisting of a tractor and a semi-trailer. This configuration was chosen with regard to the number of accidents and their consequences, and often also does not suit the technical condition of the tractor and semi-trailer, which is closely related to the safety of operation of these combinations. In the case of road accidents, the consequences are often very serious, whether it is personal injury or material damage. Investigating these accidents is a relatively demanding process, requiring a high degree of expertise as well as the necessary technical equipment. In contrast to these requirements, the availability of sources from which the necessary information can be drawn is relatively low. The available resources are mostly in a foreign language and are usually solutions to partial problems, not systemically comprehensive literature. Therefore, it is possible to say a "constant demand" for the available professional literature dealing with issues related to the solution of traffic accidents not only of combinations of vehicles, but of commercial vehicles as a whole. From the point of view of the importance, or topicality of needs arising from expert practice, the dissertation is thematically focused on braking of combinations of vehicles. There are several key reasons to focus on articulated vehicles. First of all, this is due to the specific character of the vehicle itself, which consists of two communication-linked brake systems. Other reasons are that the information contained in the dissertation, whether it is descriptive information, assessment of the technical condition of the systems, or the measurement results themselves, can be partially or even fully used for stand-alone towing vehicles or trailers. However, not all problems related to this issue can be solved within the dissertation. Therefore, in the dissertation, significant influences are selected, the solution of which, given the frequency and severity, the author considers essential. From the title of the dissertation it follows that this is a system analysis of the braking of combinations of vehicles. The system concept of solving a problem situation and selected problems are a guarantee that really essential parameters are selected within the content possibilities and scope of the dissertation and the system approach to their solution allows a "general" application in solving similar problems. The aim of the dissertation is a system analysis of the influence of selected parameters on the overall braking effect and stability of commercial vehicle combinations, analysis of input parameters on the decision logic of electronic brake system control unit, where procedures but also conclusions can be applied in similar cases with similar input parameters and decision criteria. Another partial goal is to develop a framework methodology for determining the technical condition of individual components of brake systems of commercial vehicles, which will be possible to apply especially in trucks, where electronically controlled systems are installed. Here, too, a systemic concept is applied, which will enable a wider use of this methodology.
Vehicle Inspection Methodology Used by a Loss Adjuster
Pavelec, Josef ; Bradáč, Albert (referee) ; Panáček, Vladimír (advisor)
This thesis deals with an elaboration vehicle inspection methodology of used by a loss adjuster and especially with an application of the inspection results in a forensic engineering. A theoretical part attends to an insurance with focus on problematics of valuing of insurance events in the field of motor vehicles and categorization of a motor vehicles itself. This thesis contents an analysis of working methods used by the loss adjusters in both theoretical and practical ways. A methodology was elaborated based on an analysis and requierements on forensic expert work.
