The Order of Malta and its activity in the Czech lands during the years 1874-1938
Pola, Martin ; Jakubec, Ivan (advisor) ; Županič, Jan (referee) ; Sklenář, Michal (referee)
(in English): The Knights of St. John, also known as the "Johanniter", the Knights Hospitaller or the Knights of Malta, are undoubtedly the most important chivalric order of Christendom, which played an important role in the history of Europe. The Order came to the Czech lands in the 12th century and has been continuously active here ever since, although its activities in Czechoslovakia were almost completely suppressed between 1948 and 1990 and the Grand Priory survived only thanks to its members in exile. The present dissertation describes the activities of this Order in the Czech lands between 1874 and 1938. It focuses on the organizational and social aspects of the Order's activity as well as on its economic side. Nor does the priestly branch of the Order stand aside from the interest of this dissertation. The defined period was a time of revolutionary changes - until 1918 the Order could enjoy the support of the Austro-Hungarian elites, including the Emperor, however after the collapse of the monarchy it had to find its place in the new civil society and even fight for its existence. The Order did not see the successful culmination of these efforts in the Czech lands until the late 1930s, but in the light of the coming historical events, these achievements had only a very short life.

Bachtík, Jakub ; Johanidesová, Tereza ; Uhlíková, Tereza ; Giustino, Cathleen ; Sklenář, Michal ; Novotný, Michal ; Mahringer, Paul ; Lövai, Pál ; Spikić, Marko ; Janatková, Alena ; Meulen, Marcus ; Horáček, Martin ; Gaži, Martin ; Furkert, Alf ; Kovařík, David ; Radostová, Šárka
The collection of studies on the history of post-war monument care is based on the international conference Monuments and monument care in Czechoslovakia and other Central European countries during the second half of the 20th century, which took place in the spring of 2021. Selected contributions by authors from the Czech Republic, Germany, Austria, Croatia or Hungary map the institutional development of monument care in the countries of the former Habsburg Monarchy, a significant part of which was located on the eastern side of the Iron Curtain. The book thus offers not only a valuable comparison of the various systems of monument care within Central Europe, but also unusual material on the history of post-war European totalitarianism.

Sklenář, Michal ; Bradáč, Albert (referee) ; Motl, Jakub (advisor)
This thesis focuses on examining the influence of various light sources (halogen, xenon, LED) of vehicle headlights (Škoda Octavia III. generation) on the perception of pedestrians by the driver of the vehicle. The theoretical part contains the concepts essential for a general understanding of the main topic of this thesis. The aim of the thesis is to present how the brightness and contrast between the pedestrian and his surroundings changes when illuminated by one of these light sources due to the increasing distance between the pedestrian and the vehicle and the different type of pedestrian clothing. The results of the measured experiment are presented using charts, photo documentation and brightness maps. These are then compared with the results obtained by measuring the distance of pedestrian perception by individual probands. The conclusions applicable to forensic engineering practice are drawn from the compared values.

The example of Václav Boštík, dean in Ústí nad Orlicí in years 1934 - 1942 and again in 1945 - 1961, captures both everyday life of the Church in the Stalin and Post-Stalin Era of the Czechoslovakian history and the strategies for survival in this very difficult time of the Church. The work analyzes situations, in which dean Boštík found himself in the 50's, and the decisions he chose or was made to choose. According to what measures he decided? When was he ready for compromise with the Communist Party and, on the contrary, when he stood firm on his opinions? How did his attitudes influenced the life of his parish? When was a conflict between parishioners and the Communist Party unavoidable and, on the other hand, when interests happened to concourse and a mutual coexistence was possible? Why did not revocation of dean Boštík come until 1961? Key words 20th century, History of Communism, Roman Catholic Church, Ústí nad Orlicí, Václav Boštík (1897 - 1963)

3D printing large plastic stand
Sklenář, Michal ; Sedlák, Josef (referee) ; Kalivoda, Milan (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the design and subsequent production of a large plastic stand on a 3D printer. The goal of the bachelor thesis is to divide the production process of the stand so that it can be realized it on a 3D printer workspace. Subsequently, there is an effort to save as much material as possible, but to ensure the full functionality of the stand as well. The topic of the thesis also shows defects and errors that are connected to the process of production and tries to outline their possible solutions. In conclusion, the financial side of production is evaluated, and the properties of the designed stand are compared with stands that are mass-produced. The whole set and design of the stand are conceived for the band "Zoo". The design of the stand is therefore set to produce only one piece.
