Assessment of post-processing capabilities in selected software for topology optimization
Ježek, Ondřej; Kopačka, Ján; Gabriel, Dušan
2021 - English
Topology optimization (TO) has come to the fore in recent years, especially with the development of 3D printing. Finite element systems often include TO functionality based on either\ndensity-based or level set methods. In the case of the first-mentioned method, the results of TO are further processed into geometry suitable for additive manufacturing. However, current\nprograms only include basic post-processing capabilities with minimal customization options. This paper will first briefly summarize the theoretical background of TO and post-processing\nmethods. Next, selected commercial TO programs will be compared from the perspective of shape post-processing. The final part will be devoted to applying the level set method for shape\npost-processing of a topologically optimized industrial robot gripper. Keywords: post-processing; topology optimization; level set method Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Acoustic resonances can support self-oscillations of a dynamic system.
Horáček, Jaromír; Radolf, Vojtěch; Košina, Jan; Laukkanen, A. M.
2021 - English
Flutter instability of human vocal folds is a necessary condition for speaking, because airflow induced vibrations of the vocal folds create the voice source. The present study shows that the vocal fold self-oscillations can be strongly influenced by interaction with acoustic resonances of the human vocal tract. Keywords: biomechanics of voice; modelling of human voice Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Identification of dynamic properties of built electrodynamic shaker
Šnábl, Pavel; Kozánek, Jan; Pešek, Luděk
2021 - English
Electrodynamic shaker was built in our institute for excitation of vibrating blade in a flow field. The shaker consists of permanent magnet and voice coil, 3D printed body, core and cover, and two at suspension rings laser-cutted from Pertinax. For simulation purposes of the whole system, identfication of shaker dynamic parameters was needed. Several identification methods in time or frequency domain were used, and it was shown that the shaker model must contain nonlinear stiffness in order to describe the real system more accurately. Keywords: identification; dynamics; shaker Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Measurement of friction coefficient between damping wire and groove
Šnábl, Pavel; Pešek, Luděk; Bula, Vítězslav; Běhálek, V.; Boháč, T.; Tašek, H.
2021 - English
Damping wire is being used on railway wheels for noise suppression. It is inserted into a groove of the wheel and dry friction damping reduces vibrations and thus the noise transmitted by the wheel. For increase of durability of the wire, surface treatment of the groove and the ring must be applied to prevent corrosion. Three combinations of diferent surface treatments were studied during reciprocating motion in a set of measurements with diferent frequencies and normal forces to evaluate friction coeficient. Then, those measurements were repeated after a long-time run to evaluate the change of friction coeficient after the wear of the surfaces. Keywords: tribology; friction; damping wire Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Regionální vlaková doprava s vodíkovým pohonem
Gruber, Jan
2021 - Czech
Česká republika patří k zemím s nejhustší sítí neelektrifikovaných tratí na světě. Jako alternativa k elektrizaci v oblastech malých regionálních tratí mohou sloužit vlaky využívající vodíkové palivové články. Oproti dieselovým jednotkám nabízejí vyšší ekologičnost, oproti jednotkám čistě bateriovým lepší dojezd, nižší hmotnost a odolnost proti klimatickým podmínkám. V zahraničí již existují úspěšné projekty provozu vodíkových vlaků na regionálních tratích. Prezentace se zabývá možnostmi provozu těchto vlaků v Moravskoslezském regionu při využití rozličných zdrojů vodíku, včetně vodíku tzv. zeleného, či purpurového. The Czech Republic is among the countries with the highest density of non-electrified rail network. The alternative to electrification of small regional tracks is utilization of hydrogen fuel-cell trains. Such trains are much cleaner and quieter in comparison with diesel units. They also provide better range, faster refuelling, lower weight and ability to operate in adverse climatic conditions in comparison with solely battery units. There are successful examples of deployment of hydrogen trains in regional train transport in other countries. The presentation analyses possibilities of operating hydrogen trains in Moravian-Silesian region using various sources of hydrogen, including so-called green hydrogen and purple hydrogen.

Macroscopic constitutive model for NiTi shape memory alloys: Formulation, numerical imple-mentation, and application in materials research
Frost, Miroslav; Sedlák, Petr
2021 - English
In this contribution, we present a constitutive model for shape memory alloys formulated within the generalized standard materials framework. It provides substantial flexibility for the development of constitutive equations. On the other hand, finding the optimal numerical solution procedure for the resulting systems of evolutionary inclusions can be challenging. We present our approach and illustrate the capabilities of the model on several numerical simulations compared with experiments. Keywords: shape memory alloys; modeling Fulltext is available at external website.

Modelling approaches to the stress wave propagation in a cracked specimen
Kruisová, Alena; Kopačka, Ján; Kober, Jan
2021 - English
One of the essential tasks of non-destructive testing is to detect a crack in a specimen. It is well known that a component with a crack exposed to a harmonic excitation of a given frequency\nhas a nonlinear response as a function of the excitation amplitude. The focus of this paper is the numerical modelling of this phenomenon using the finite element method with the consideration\nof the contact constraint at the crack interface. In addition to the nonlinear transient dynamic problem solved by explicit time integration, a more efficient procedure based on the harmonic\nbalance method is developed. The results of numerical simulations are also compared with experimentally obtained data.

Development of autonomous experimental setup to investigate directional distortional hardening under biaxial loading
Svárovský, Jiří; Parma, Slavomír; Štefan, Jan; Ciocanel, C.; Feigenbaum, H. P.; Klepač, Vilém; Marek, René; Plešek, Jiří
2021 - English
Plastic deformations alter the shape of the yield surface in the stress space. Models for predicting the shape of the yield surface according to the direction of loading are being developed. Experimental data are the key factor in development and validation of phenomenological models, such as the model of directional distortional hardening cited in this study. The objective of this paper is to present the experimental setup for investigation of the directional distortional hardening. A new autonomous method was developed using an axial-torsional testing machine and the Labivew 2017 graphical programming environment to monitor the yield surface in axial stress – shear stress space. A suitable yield condition in form of effective plastic strain was used for the determination of the yield points. Initial yield surface obtained by this method shows promising agreement with von Mises model of the yield surface. Several outstanding yield points were measured which disrupt the assumption of the yield surface convexity. Therefore, possible shortcomings caused by the methodology are being investigated.

Recent improvements in CFD solver for fully coupled particle-laden flows
Šourek, M.; Isoz, Martin
2021 - English
While new methods combining the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the discrete element method (DEM) have been developed to simulate freely moving solid particles, they tend to be focused on simulations with spherical particles only. Here, we present a strongly coupled CFD-DEM solver capable of simulating movement of arbitrarily-shaped particles dispersed in a fluid. The particles are assumed to be large enough to affect the fluid flow and distributed densely enough to come into contact with both the boundaries of the computational domain and with each other. In this paper, we will focus on the recent improvements of our solver, specifically, in the areas of (i) inclusion of solid bodies into the computational domain, (ii) general CFD-DEM coupling algorithm, and (iii) code parallelization and practical usability. Keywords: CFD; DEM; HFDIB-DEM; OpenFOAM Available at various institutes of the ASCR
