The thesis analyse typical design of the frame of forming machines for free forging. These are primarily hydraulic presses size up to 50 MN marked CKV, CKW and CKZ. Based on this analysis is created a knowledge framework about these forming machines to describe the...

The habilitation thesis deals with the possibilities of protecting the surfaces of components stressed by wear and exposure to high temperature by means of coatings deposited by high velocity oxygen fuel spray technology (HVOF). It focuses on the evaluation of microstructure, &#x...

This thesis deals with the current issue of implementing virtual and augmented reality (immersive technologies) in the industrial environment. Many companies have passed through the digitalization phase and are starting to prepare their vision for Industry 4.0. According to prestigio...

Fluidelastic instability (FEI) is responsible for a rapid increase of heat exchanger tube array vibration amplitude at a critical flow velocity and can be destructive in a matter of hours. This dangerous flow-induced vibration mechanism occurred in many nuclear plants and is ...

The thesis deals with the application of multibody simulations in transport engineering. The range of using multibody simulations at development and verification of dynamic properties of vehicles is very extensive. The ambition of this work is not to present the mentioned p...

In recent years a dynamic development of the concurrent design methodology oriented at various requirements of the product life cycle has been witnessed in the engineering design area, and this approach has been more and more widely applied. Design for X was developed &...

The paper deals with flow at the so called cold end steam turbines which means in last low pressure (LP) stage and in the following exhaust hood and in the condenser neck. The work is done especially as experimental. Experiments were carried out directly in th...

Habilitation thesis is focused on development of cutting tools for chip machining. Specifically for cutting tools and technologies for precision holes machining. Thesis presents set of published works from development, production and testing of reamers with sintered carbide, cermet, ...

The presented habilitation thesis presents the possibilities of production of high clean steels intended for power engineering. The production process is focused on the selection of the charge raw materials with regard to low concentration of trace elements (As, Sn, Sb), melting&...
