Abstract:
The project shall make students aware of progressive methods in vehicle development applied in vehicle (generally technical appliances) development. These methods are dedicated to customer need analysis and its application into design (e. g. QFD – Quality Function Deployment), supportive methods in optimalization aimed at cut of material, time, technology, maintanance time ... consumption (e. g. DFA – Design for Assembly, etc.). Furthermore these are methods to foresee possible failures in production stage (e. g. FMEA – Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, a method to find possible failures and its consequences). Students will work on a specific task aimed at part, assembly or unit design. One or combination of more methods according to the individual circumstances will be used in this stage to cope with the specific requirements. Main focus of the tasks will be road transport vehicles. The focus of the projects will be on driver support and autonomous driving. Verification of results will be done on HMI simulators.

Abstract:
"The project deals with interdisciplinary problems of HMI, focused primarily on vehicle drivers. Interactive simulators are the main and effective tools for measurements of HMI. These have been developed within the Driving Simulation Research Group for almost two decades. The project involves all levels of such a research starting with experiment design, specification and design of devices needed for quality measurements (research driving simulators as well) ending with final analyses and classifications. It covers problems of simulations, virtual reality, system analyzes, psycho-physiological measurements, mathematical analytical methods, data mining and data classification. Topics of virtual reality cover mainly modeling and rendering of virtual objects and sceneries, real-time rendering using a modern hardware, creation of spatial sounds, as well as design of particular peripheral devices used within the scope of the virtual reality. Students can practically participate within large spectra of works staring with modeling of 3D testing scenarios up to evaluations and classifications of measured data. The project is tightly coupled with recent research tasks of the department and is done in cooperation with industry partners Škoda-Auto, VW, Dekra Automobil, Pragolet etc."

Abstract:
The project is aimed at innovation of construction of transport routes, particularly the railway tracks of the mixed conventional railway system. The goal is to create a framework for Life Cycle Cost (LCC) reduction at simultaneous improvement of RAMS attributes - reliability, availability, maintainability and safety. The project involves thorough analysis of studied problems and use of computational models for stress and deformation analysis of road and railway transport routes. Both analytical models and experimental techniques are used together with advanced computational methods based on finite element analysis. Furthermore optimization of both the transportation routes'''' construction and associated devices according to perspective increase of transport speeds and axle loads are all within the scope of the project.

Abstract:
The project is focused on utilization of modern computational methods for strain and stress analysis in transportation. In the project research is aimed at improving the knowledge of vehicles and their parts, transportation infrastructure, construction materials, etc. Strain and stress analyses of static and dynamic problems are mainly solved using Finite Element Method (FEM) and in this project commercial general purpose FE codes (ANSYS, LS-DYNA) as well as open-source FE codes (Elmer, deal.II, Salome, Impact) are employed. High emphasis is also put on proper interpretation of calculated results a their presentation. In addition to solution of problems using FEM, students will acquire knowledge of various programming or computational languages and applications (Matlab, Octave, Python, etc.) that are commonly used in engineering and scientific field. Moreover, students` work on real-world problems arising from cooperation with reputable companies (AZD, SKODA Transportation, Skoda Auto, etc.) and research institutions (ITAM ASCR, IEAP CTU, etc.).
