3. Mapping of an electrical conductivity based on impedance tomography

   Electrical properties of materials we can obtain using different variants of impedance tomography algorithms.

   This work relate with problems of measurement of an extreme short one-shot impulses. Firstly, the obviously used methods of voltage, current, and power measurement of extremely high values and short duration will be studied. Consequently, a new type of sensors or combination of sensors will be developed (based e. g. on electro-optical or magneto-optical principles). Target of the work is to design a relevant sensors and techniques of measurement, applicable for short high-powered impulses.

6. Nuclear quadrupole resonance techniques for material detection

   Thesis work deals with the material detection and classification based on principle of nuclear quadrupole resonance. This method seems to be very perspective for explosives, medicaments and drugs detection. There are many technical problems with nucleus excitation and small signal handing at receiver point. The problematic is inter-branch.

7. Numerical models of stochastic problems

   In the process of modeling of large-scale problems the multiparametric tasks occure with an explicit description of the minimum parameters. In numerical modeling some approaches exist for such models. Basic two can be characterized as deterministic and nondeterministic process. Both approaches can be used in numerical modeling of large-scale problems associated with electrical engineering, electronic and electromagnetic fields. When suitable formulated, they become powerful tools in the scientific approach to solving of basic and applied research. The aim of doctoral study is to describe and define the two approaches and then experimentally verify the properties of models, explicitly on nanomaterial models.

12. Utilization of broadband signals for measurement of high-frequency devices parameters

    Measurement of high-frequency devices parameters represents an important tool for examination of their complex properties. In case of devices which serve to transmission or transformation of electromagnetic energy, it is necessary to respect the possible coupling between the measured and the measuring device in a near field. Broadband stochastic signals may offer a promising way how to suppress this unwanted coupling. The topic is focused on the research of this concept utilization, its development and experimental verification.
