Adaptation of methods for cyclo-stationary processes for noisy structural health data
Fischer, Cyril; Bayer, Jan; Náprstek, Jiří; Urushadze, Shota
2023 - English
In structural health analysis, various techniques, including indirect measurement via monitoring vehicles, often yield data with significant randomness and insufficient frequency separation. Conversely, the desired attributes under scrutiny are periodic in nature. Thus, methodologies designed to identify cyclo-stationary properties within noisy data can be adapted for such scenarios, assuming an adequate length of the recorded data.

Consistency of mathematical and experimental model of the autoparametric system
Fischer, Cyril; Náprstek, Jiří
2023 - English
This paper presents a long-overdue comparison of data obtained from experimental investigation of a spherical vibration absorber with the results of two mathematical models of the motion of a heavy sphere in a spherical surface. It shows that the danger posed by the potentially unstable self-parametric nature of the mathematical system is not too great in the case of realistic configurations, and that the values of the parameters describing the realistic structures remain within intervals corresponding to the stable behaviour of the absorber.

Ambiguity in Stochastic Optimization Problems with Nonlinear Dependence on a Probability Measure via Wasserstein Metric
Kaňková, Vlasta
2023 - English
Many economic and financial applications lead to deterministic optimization problems depending on a probability measure. It happens very often (in applications) that these problems have to be solved on the data base. Point estimates of an optimal value and estimates of an optimal solutionset can be obtained by this approach. A consistency, a rate of convergence and normal properties, of these estimates, have been discussed (many times) not only under assumptions of independent data corresponding to the distributions with light tails, but also for weak dependent data and the distributions with heavy tails. However, it is also possible to estimate (on the data base) a confidence intervals and bounds for the optimal value and the optimal solutions. To analyze this approach we focus on a special case of static problems depending nonlineary on the probability measure. Stability results based on the Wasserstein metric and the Valander approach will be employed for the above mentioned analysis.

Čížek, Martin; Hrabina, Jan; Pravdová, Lenka; Číp, Ondřej
2023 - Czech
Příspěvek představuje systém frekvenčních normálů vyvinutý na Ústavu přístrojové techniky AVČR. Diskutuje potřebu vysoce koherentních optických frekvenčních referencí pro náročné experimenty v spektroskopii se zchlazenými atomy. Systém zahrnuje propojené normály pracující v rádiové a optické části elektromagnetického spektra, včetně aktivního vodíkového maseru, vláknového laseru uzamčeného na vysoce jakostní optický rezonátor a optického frekvenčního hřebene. Relativní frekvenční stabilita těchto normálů je analyzována s důrazem na jejich vhodnost pro různé integrační časy a aplikace. Dále je popsáno experimentální uspořádání pro porovnání stability frekvenčních normálů na ÚPT s těmi v laboratoři BEV ve Vídni pomocí stabilizované fázově koherentní optické vláknové linky. Výsledky ukazují vynikající relativní stabilitu frekvenčních normálů dosahující -15. řádu, která je nezbytná pro aplikace ve spektroskopii a experimenty se zachycenými zchlazenými ionty. The contribution presents a system of frequency standards developed at the Institute of Scientific Instruments of the Czech Academy of Sciences. It discusses the need for highly coherent optical frequency references for demanding experiments in spectroscopy with cooled atoms. The system comprises interconnected standards operating in the radiofrequency and optical parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, including an active hydrogen maser, a fiber laser locked to a high-finesse optical resonator, and an optical frequency comb. The relative frequency stability of these standards is analyzed, highlighting their suitability for different integration times and applications. The article also describes the experimental setup for comparing the stability of the frequency standards at the Institute of Scientific Instruments with those at the BEV laboratory in Vienna using a stabilized phase-coherent optical fiber link. The results demonstrate the excellent stability of the frequency standards reaching the -15th order of magnitude, essential for spectroscopy and ion trapping experiments.

Fiala, L.; Ballo, I.; Kovář, J.; Fuis, Vladimír
2023 - English
Finite Element Method (FEM) was used to study the difference between using Berkovich and conical indenters in nanoindentation test of tungsten specimen. The study was aimed to determine the\nmodulus of elasticity of a tested specimen and how it changes with different indenter. The FEM analysis also revealed that the modulus of elasticity was sensitive to the dimensions of both specimen and the indenter for which were made several numerical calculations with different dimensions.

2023 - Czech
Práce se zabývá studiem Ramanových spekter sekundárních metabolitů bakterií rodu Streptomyces, zejména polyenních antifungálních látek. Purifikované izoláty a komerční standardy těchto sloučenin byly využity k pořízení referenčních spekter, ze kterých byly odvozeny spektrální markery charakterizující konkrétní detaily chemické struktury. Verifikace pozorovaných markerů byla provedena pomocí predikcí Ramanových spekter in silico. Následně byly tyto poznatky využity ke spektroskopické charakterizaci složení sekundárních metabolitů in vivo, přímo v bakteriích rostoucích na pevném médiu. Vypracované metodiky pomohou optimalizovat podmínky pro biotechnologickou produkci antibiotik. The work deals with the study of Raman spectra of secondary metabolites of bacteria of the genus Streptomyces, especially polyene antifungal agents. Purified isolates and commercial standards of these compounds were used to obtain reference spectra from which spectral markers characterizing specific details of the chemical structure were derived. Verification of the observed markers was performed using in silico Raman spectra predictions. Subsequently, these findings were used for the spectroscopic characterization of the composition of secondary metabolites in vivo, directly in bacteria growing on a solid medium. The developed methodologies will help to optimize the conditions for the biotechnological production of antibiotics.

Mechanical properties of basalt: a study on compressive loading at different strain rates using SHPB
Falta, J.; Krčmářová, N.; Fíla, T.; Vavro, Martin; Vavro, Leona
2023 - English
This article focuses on the mechanical properties of basalt in compressive loading at different strain-rates. The study employs advanced instrumentation for the evaluation of the results in dynamic conditions, while standard uni-axial loading device is used for evaluation in quasi-static conditions. Basalt specimens were subjected to four different loading-rates from 200–600 s−1 on which the stress-strain dependence was evaluated together with DIC analysis of crack initiation and disintegration process. Understanding the mechanical properties of basalt can provide insights for engineers and designers in creating structures that are durable and able to withstand different loading conditions. The findings of this study can have implications for a wide range of industries, including aerospace, automotive, and construction, among others.

Asynchronous time integration while achieving zero interface energy
Dvořák, Radim; Kolman, Radek; Falta, J.; Neühauserová, M.
2023 - English
This contribution deals with an asynchronous direct time integration of the finite-element model. The proposed method is applied to the phenomenon of wave propagation through an elastic linear continuum. The numerical model is partitioned into individual subdomains using the domain decomposition method by means of localized Lagrange multipliers. For each subdomain, different time discretizations are used. No restrictions for relation between subdomain’s time steps are imposed. The coupling of the subdomains is forced by an acceleration continuity condition. Additionally, we use the a posteriori technique to also provide the displacement and velocity continuity at the interfaces, and hence we obtain exact continuity of all three kinematic fields. The proposed method is experimentally validated using the modified SHPB (split Hopkinson pressure bar) setup.

Laserová ablace atomů vápníku a hliníku jako zdroj částic pro iontovou past
Grim, Jakub; Pekař, Zdeněk; Pham, Minh Tuan; Číp, Ondřej
2023 - Czech
Laserová ablace je účinnou metodou pro generování částic z různých materiálů, včetně těch s vysokou teplotou vypařování, jako je hliník. Využití vysokoenergetických laserových pulsů umožňuje kontrolované odpaření materiálu a vytvoření ablačního kráteru. V pilotní sestavě pro generování neutrálních atomů vápníku a hliníku pomocí laserové ablace byly dosaženy úspěšné výsledky. Metoda je porovnávána s tepelnou píckou s cílem optimalizovat proces generování těchto částic. Následná spektroskopická měření na generovaných atomech jsou prováděna s cílem optimalizace absorpce a emise fotonů pro následnou ionizaci v iontové pasti. Studie přechodů neutrálních atomů Ca a Al ukazuje, že laserová ablace poskytuje efektivnější generaci atomů s možností větší kontroly nad tímto procesem. Laser ablation is an effective method for generating particles from a variety of materials, including those with high evaporation temperatures such as aluminum. The use of high-energy laser pulses enables controlled evaporation of the material and the creation of an ablation crater. Successful results have been obtained in a pilot setup for the generation of neutral calcium and aluminium atoms by laser ablation. The method is being compared with thermal resistance oven in order to optimize the prosec generation of these particles. Subsequent spectroscopic measurements on the generated atoms are performed to optimize the absorption and emission of photons for subsequent ionization in the ion trap. A study of the transitions of neutral Ca and Al atoms shows that laser ablation provides a more efficient generation of atoms with the possibility of greater control over the process.

Validace reanalýzy pro střední Evropu PERUN/Reanalysis
Beranová, Romana; Rulfová, Zuzana; Sokol, Zbyněk
2023 - Czech
Regionální reanalýza PERUN/Reanalysis je založena na numerickém předpovědním modelu ALADIN, který byl upraven pro klimatologické výpočty. Aby mohla sloužit jako jeden z referenčních setů pro odhady očekávaných změn klimatu v následujících desetiletích, je potřeba ji validovat vůči staničním měřením, případně i vůči jiným běžně používaným datovým souborům. V tomto konferenčním příspěvku se podíváme na validace základních meteorologických veličin na celé výpočetní doméně modelu ALADIN. Použijeme k tomu staniční data z databáze ECA&D, staniční data v pravidelné síti Eobs a globální reanalýzu ERA5. Validace bude provedena pro období 1990–2014. Při validaci se budeme soustředit zejména na teplotu vzduchu (minimální, maximální a průměrnou) a srážky, ale podíváme se i na další veličiny jako je například rychlost větru. PERUN/Reanalysis is based on the ALADIN numerical forecast model, which has been adapted for climatological calculations. To serve as one of the reference sets for estimating expected climate changes in the coming decades, it needs to undergo validation against station measurements and possibly against other commonly used data sets. In this conference paper, we will examine the validation of basic meteorological quantities across the computational domain of the ALADIN model. To achieve this, we will use station data from the ECA&D database, station data in the regular network (Eobs), and the ERA5 global reanalysis. Validation will be conducted for the period from 1990 to 2014. During validation, our primary focus will be on air temperature (minimum, maximum, and mean) and precipitation. We will also examine additional variables, including wind speed.\n
