Úkolem této semestrální práce je návrh asynchronního motoru. Pro výpočet technických parametrů asynchronního motoru je použita analytická metoda, která je implementována do vytvořeného počítačového programu. Výsledek je ověřen pomocí programu ANSYS RMxprt. Technickým úkolem je umístit tento motor do určeného prostoru. Návrh sleduje stanovené technické parametry a výsledek respektuje požadovaný průměr statoru i optimalizaci jeho rozměrů. Pomocí programu ANSYS RMxprt jsou výsledky analyzovány s cílem najít technické řešení umožňující zmenšení rozměrů stroje. V závěru práce je návrh motoru změněn dle výsledků, které umožňují optimalizaci technických parametrů návrhu stroje.

Dang, Milan ; Holcová, Irena (advisor) ; Křesťanová, Veronika (referee)
Legal Aspects of Artificial Intelligence Abstract The inclusion and further development of artificial intelligence creates novel legal challenges. This thesis attempts to chronologically follow the "life cycle" of artificial intelligence. Firstly, the very concept of artificial intelligence and other related technical and legal terms are explained. Secondly, the creator's rights to artificial intelligence are described, as well as the employees' role in the development of artificial intelligence. The thesis concludes with an analysis of the "creative" possibilities of contemporary artificial intelligence, along with the current Czech regulation of copyright protection. In this thesis the author tries to make the complex issue of the current state of legal regulation of artificial intelligence and its development tendencies accessible to lawyers. This is achieved by on one hand covering the capabilities of artificial intelligence and on the other hand by emphasizing the limitations of today's artificial intelligence. In the conclusion of the introductory chapter, the author offers a legal definition of artificial intelligence for the needs of copyright law. Furthermore, the thesis discusses the legal status of the programmer as a creator of artificial intelligence, and of IT companies in business...
