Analytical model of joint loaded perpendicular to wooden grain
Hataj, M.; Pošta, J.; Hasníková, Hana; Kunecký, Jiří
2022 - English
Computing models for structural behaviour and determination of traditional timber butt joints using analytical relations are presented in this paper. A component method is the base of the computing technique introduced herein. This method is usually used for steel joint design. The component method is based on dividing a joint into individual components. These are defined by partial joint component stiffness. An analytical solution includes a subsidence effect of wooden material close to compressive loading. Analytical computation results are compared with the experimental outputs. A design procedure according to Eurocode 5 for a load capacity determination of perpendicularly loaded structural elements is stated in the paper.

Wooden construction of the movable roof of the garden pavilion in Český Krumlov castle
Bláha, Jiří; Kloiber, Michal
2022 - English
A remarkable technical monument is situated on one of the garden terraces belonging to the state castle and chateau in Český Krumlov. The umbrella-shaped roof of the lookout pavilion can be lifted about a meter above the masoned parapet allowing the visitor a beautiful view of the World Heritage town panorama when the weather is fine. In windy conditions or in case of heavy rain the roof could be lowered and the pavilion thus closed. The lifting is operated by means of a wooden lever mechanism with a counterweight box hidden in the basement level of the building. The unique construction was built in 1823 and needed to be partially altered in 1830-1835. However, since then it has been preserved in a surprisingly authentic state even allowing practical demonstrations of its original function. Prior to recent repairs in 2016, a comprehensive non-destructive survey was conducted. The extent of the damage discovered was determined by measuring the speed of elastic wave propagation using stress waves (Fakkop 2D) and measuring the mechanical resistance when drilling with a thin bit using resistance micro-drilling (Resistograph). Another method based on loading timber by means of a\nminiature loading jack inserted into a drilled hole was selected to determine the current mechanical properties.

Gold nanosystems for the detection of molecules using surface-enhanced Raman scatterings (SERS)
Benešová, Markéta
2022 - English
Raman spectroscopy is a non-destructive analytical technique to analyze the chemical structure of molecules by a phenomenon known as Raman scattering, which occurs by an inelastic interaction of photons with the valence electrons in molecular bonds. However, Raman scattering can be hard to observe due to other, more frequent phenomena, such as Rayleigh scattering or fluorescence. SERS (surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy) uses localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of metal nanostructures to amplify Raman scattering. LSPR is a coherent oscillation of conduction electrons that arises from the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with metal nanostructures. The amplification of Raman scattering occurs when the analyte is adsorbed on the surface of such nanostructure and the strong localized electric field interacts with the electrons in its molecular bonds. Signal amplification of several orders of magnitude can be achieved, commonly 103 or more. In our work, we determined the presence of a selected bacterial species by multi-functionalized golden nanoparticles called SERS-tags, which have their surface modified with an antibody and a Raman reporter. The antibody allows the nanoparticles to bind to the surface of a concrete bacterial species based on the antigen-antibody affinity. When the targeted bacterium is covered with the nanoparticles, the Raman reporter signal is amplified by SERS, providing specific and strong Raman response. Therefore, when the Raman reporter signal is detected in a sample, it confirms the presence of the specific bacterium on a single-cell level.

Mikula, Pavol; Ryukhtin, Vasil; Michalcová, A.
2022 - English
In our contribution we present strain measurements on several samples related to the 3D printing material with an unconventional high-resolution neutron diffraction. This method is based on the three-axis diffractometer setting when a conventional two axis neutron diffraction scanner does not provide a relevant resolution.

Identification of the blade tip possition and measurement techniques using the BTT method
Maturkanič, Dušan; Procházka, Pavel; Hodboď, Robert; Mekhalfia, Mohammed Lamine
2022 - English
This paper describes the existing practice in identifying and defining the position of the blade tips and the relevant technique for measuring their vibration during rotation. In connection with the effort to precisely define the position of the vibrating blade, the paper also analysed the possibilities of unambiguous determination of its position. This work creates a parallel branch to signal processing in the complex system of precision measurement and analysis of blade vibration, which was mentioned in previous papers.

Experimental validation of granular flow kinetic theory under turbulent flow conditions
Haidl, Jan; Chára, Zdeněk; Matoušek, Václav
2022 - English
The mixed classical and extended kinetic theory of granular ows is used for modeling the characteristics of particles-water turbulent sheet ow. The open-source solver sedFoam v3.1 is used for the 1-D and 2-D ow simulations. The simulation results are compared to the experimental data measured in the open channel. After that, the simulation parameters are optimized to achieve the best possible agreement between the simulation and the experimental results. The unsatisfactory performance of the KT models and the observed simulation instabilities are discussed.

Study of the oscillation of a pendulum in a magnetic field
Zapoměl, Jaroslav; Kozánek, Jan; Košina, Jan; Cibulka, Jan
2022 - English
Realization of some technological processes requires application of rotating machines with a vertical rotor mounted in rolling element bearings. One of the requirements put on their operation is minimization of energy losses in the support elements. The proposed design variant consists in supporting the vertical rotor by one rolling element bearing placed at its upper part and by one axial magnetic bearing mounted in its lower end. The magnetic bearing is composed of an electric coil coupled with the stationary part and of a permanent magnet attached to the rotating part. The magnetic force attracts the permanent magnet, which reduces radial displacement of the lower end of the rotor. The magnetic field between the magnets represents a force coupling between the rotor and the stationary part, which shows some stiffness and affects the system natural frequencies. The controlled change of the stiffness makes it possible to reduce the rotor lateral oscillations in the resonance area. The investigated pendulum is coupled with the frame by a revolute joint at its upper end. The permanent magnet is attached to its lower end. The electric coil is coupled with the stationary part and placed under the pendulum. The system is excited by a moment of harmonic time history, which sets the pendulum into a seesaw motion.\n\n

Localized formulation of bipenalty method in contact-impact problems
Kolman, Radek; González, J. A.; Dvořák, Radim; Kopačka, Ján; Park, K.C.
2022 - English
Often, the finite element method together with direct time integration is used for modelling of contact-impact problems of bodies. For direct time integration, the implicit or explicit time stepping are gen-\nerally employed. It is well known that the time step size in explicit time integration is limited by the stability limit. Further, the trouble comes with the task of impact of bodies with different critical time step sizes for each body in contact. In this case, this numerical strategy based on explicit time stepping with the same time step size for both bodies is not effective and is not accurate due to the dispersion behaviour and spurious stress oscillations. For that reason, a numerical methodology, which allows independent time stepping for each body with its time step size, is needed to develop. In this paper, we introduce the localized variant of the bipenalty method in contact-impact problems with the governing equations derived based on the Hamilton’s principle. The localized bipenalty method is applied into the impact problems of bars as an one-dimensional problem. The definition of localized gaps is presented and applied into the full concept of the localized bipenalty method.
