The diploma thesis is focused on the measurement of forces acting between the tire and the road. There is an outline of tire and tire models problematic in the opening part. In the following part, the rear right suspension of the formula student car was mounted with strain gauges and the data logging system was described. There is also a multi-body model of the rear axle created in Adams/Car and SAMS software, that is able to calculate forces acting between the tire and the road, taking the measured forces in the suspension, rocker position, and throttle position into consideration. After a series of calibrations and verification measurements, the measurement on the test track was made, with data analysis focused on forces acting between the tire and the road.

Tato diplomová práce se zabývá posouzením tepelně-mechanické únavy výfukového potrubí. Nejprve byla provedena rešeršní studie, ve které je rozebrán fenomén tepelně-mechanické únavy. Byly prezentovány hlavní mechanismy poškození a přístupy k jejich modelování. Diskutována byla i specifická chování materiálu vystavenému tepelně-mechanickému zatěžování. Byl vypracován přehled vhodných modelů materiálu a modelů únavové životnosti společně s algoritmem predikce tepelně-mechanické únavy komponenty. Poté byl tento teoretický základ aplikován na praktický případ výfukového potrubí podléhajícího tepelně-mechanickému zatěžování. Dva tepelně závislé elasto-plastické modely materiálu byly nakalibrovány a validovány na základě experimentálních dat. Byl vytvořen diskretizovaný konečnoprvkový model sestavy výfukového potrubí. Model tepelných okrajových podmínek byl předepsán na základě výpočtů ustáleného sdruženého přestupu tepla. Slabě sdružená tepelně-deformační úloha byla vyřešena metodou konečných prvků pro oba modely materiálů. Bylo použito paradigma nesvázaného modelu únavy, které je vhodné pro nízkocyklovou únavu. Životnost byla tedy vyhodnocena jako součást post-procesoru. Použity byly dva modely únavové životnosti – energeticky založený model a deformačně založený model. Získané hodnoty životnosti byly porovnány vzhledem k použitým modelům materiálu a modelům únavové životnosti. Nakonec jsou diskutovány závěry této práce, oblasti dalšího výzkumu a navrženy možnosti na zlepšení použitých přístupů.

This thesis describes application of image processing for precise distance measurement in self acting production of a tip for AFM microscopes. The main goal is to measure distances between assembly parts during fabrication process. The purpose is to acquire a data for self acting assembly line which have to substitute inaccurate and nonrecurring manual assembly process. The assembly process consists of three technological steps. In first two steps the tungsten wire is glued to the cantilever. Distance measurement is necessary in all axes for proper alignment of parts. In third step the sharp tip is etched by KOH solution. The right distance between liquid level and the cantilever must be kept. A camera with high resolution and macro objective is used to acquire an image. Camera image is then calibrated to suppress distortions and scene position with respect to camera position. Length conversion coefficient is also computed. Object recognition and distance measurement is based on standard computer vision methods, mainly: adaptive thresholding, moments, image statistics, canny edge detector, Hough transform… Proposed algorithms have been implemented in C++ using Intel OpenCV library. The final achieved distance resolution is about 10µm per pixel. Algorithm output was successfully used to assembly few test tips.

This thesis is dedicated to the automation of tests of the thermostats developed by the company Honeywell. The first chapter presents a problem of self-testing of thermostats, followed by a discussion of possible approaches to solutions. Attention is paid to testing the functionality of the HMI of thermostats, especially to the part of the system, that deals with activation of touchscteen, but no other part of the problem are omitted in the text. Discussions of the problematic passes into the design and implementation of specific design solutions. The selected design of 3D-router, which moves in three orthogonal coordinates and resembles to a coordinate drill for example. First, it describes the basic concepts of mechanic and electronic part of equipment, and subsequently is designed and implemented control electronics for mechanical activator HMI. Each of the electronics components are described in detail and values of parts are based on the calculation with the exception of finished parts. The proposal of the electronics follows the possibility of maximization of universality module for applications in similar applications. The functionality of the electronics is controlled by a microprocessor with a custom program that is described in the work. Source code of some the programs is not available because it is know-how of the company. Next part of the thesis deals with optimization of the moving of axes, optimization is done empirically by measuring. An important issue is compliance with the accuracy required position, also part of the work is devoted to the issue of calibration position. Finally is solved the continuity on the superior system. It is designed and implemented the upper layer of the communication protocol used in the company. Work is the solution of specific corporate award thesis. Although it is a very specific role of the works are generally applicable for other applications. In particular, the proposed electronic represents relatively universal controller for stepper motor control.

This master’s thesis is an introduction to the measurement of changes in tissue impedance of blood flow by impedance plethysmography. Other chapters deal with the kinds of plethysmographs and their principles. The aim is to draft four-electrode impedance plethysmograph to measure changes in tissue impedance depending on blood flow. First, describe the individual blocks of the medical instrument. The practical part of the master’s thesis involves circuit design four-electrode plethysmograph. Given that a very important role in its function plays a constant current source operating at a frequency of 60kHz, this subset was implemented and verified its correct function. To draw component schemes used program EAGLE version 5.10.0.

This master thesis deals with the measurement properties of ultrasound probes. Ultrasound probes and their parameters significantly affect the quality of the final image. Values of pa-rameters of the probes may change due to their use, because probes may be damaged and the final image may no longer be correct. For these reasons the measurements of parameters of probes are very important. In this master thesis there are described and implemented the possibility of measuring the spatial resolution, focal zone, the sensitivity of the probe and measuring the length of the dead zone. Two ultrasonic phantoms were used for measuring. In the practical part there was created the program called Mereni_parametru, which allows to determine the value of four parameters from captured images of the phantom. Further, there are listed and described measured values for five ultrasonic probes. Results for two of these probes are then compared with the parameters given by the manufacturers.
