Components operational duration is among other s highly dependant on the loads during operation. Consequently it is very important, that the load conditions, that the component will be subjected to during operation, are known as good as possible already in the early stages of construction. This is why it is important, that new methods for prediction of load conditions are developed constantly and existing methods are improved continually. The thesis presents the methodology for the use of the algorithm, originally developed for finite mixture density estimation, for the modeling and extrapolation of load spectra. To upgrade the existent algorithm, the methodology for the use of the algorithm also on the other fields of load conditions estimation is presented in the thesis. The model for the arbitrary function estimation is set up and successfully applied in estimation of the arbitrary functions for both univariate and mu1tivariate data sets. The algorithm for finite mixture estimation is also successfully connected with the radial basis function neural network, which allows further extensions of the algorithm in different fields of solving problems.
D.09 Tutoring for postgraduate students
COBISS.SI-ID: 259731968The programme group has been developing software MaximizerPro for Veyance Technologies (formerly Goodyear) since 2004. In 2011, an internet version of the programme has been applied to the market to be used on all continents for the selection of the optimum belt drive with two or more pulleys.
F.06 Development of a new product
COBISS.SI-ID: 11833115Essential steps in determining the durability of thermo-mechanically loaded components are included. Current damage prediction of thermo-mechanically loaded components is briefly introduced. Uniaxial Prandtl operators are presented. They were the starting point for the development of multiaxial operators. Multiaxial Prandtl operators are presented with the final equations and key steps for their use. Numerical analysis of thermo-mechanically loaded exhaust manifold DV6 is described. A comparison of simulated and experimental results is made.
