A hydrate plugging and formation model for oil and gas pipelines is becoming increasingly important as producers continue to push flow assurance boundaries. A key input for any hydrate plugging model is the rate of hydrate growth and the volume fraction of hydrate at a given time. This work investigates a fundamental approach toward predicting hydrate growth and volume fraction in a water saturated gas pipeline. This works suggests that, in the absence of free water, hydrate volume fraction can be predicted using a wall growth and sloughing model. Wall growth can be predicted using a one-dimensional, moving boundary, heat and mass transfer model. It is hypothesized that hydrate sloughing can be predicted when a coincident frequency exists between hydrate natural frequency and flow induced vibrations over the hydrate surface.

The main objective of the thesis is to perform static and dynamic analysis of prestressed concrete bridge structures in computational system ANSYS. For the analysis was chosen footbridge over the river Svratka in Brno. In relation to this topic are solved various types of modeling prestress at a finite element level. Before analyzing the footbridge is analyzed in detail the static system and the corresponding final geometry of the structure. Knowledge of the functioning of the static system is used to build the computational model of the structure, on which is subsequently performed static and dynamic analysis.
