Research activities of the Institute are focused in the following fields:
- Constitutive modelling and limit states of particular types of materials.
- Stress analysis and strength optimisation of the strip wound compound vessels for extremely high pressure.
- Numerical simulation of selected technological operations.
- Two-parameters fracture mechanics.
- Measurement residual stresses.
- Dynamics of rotor systems.
- Noise and vibration.
- Modelling dynamic properties of interactive drive systems.
- Research and development of mechatronic systems.
- Biomechanics of musculo-skeletal system, cardio-vascular system, vocal tract.
- Research projects are supported through grants of the Czech Grant Agency and other sources.
