Historical Overwiev of F1 Chassis and Engines Evolution
Hrudík, Jan ; Svída, David (referee) ; Dundálek, Radim (advisor)
This thesis is focused on the overwiev of main periods in the area of race car construction development. In the first chapter, main attention is dedicated to Formula One cars, attending races since 1950. In spite of this, there is briefly noted the technological development before FIA Formula One Championship. Next chapter is dealing with technical restrictions and regulations restraining construction of Formula One car. Data are situated in the table, ascending sequenced according to the year. Next part refers to the actual Fia Formula One Championship season 2008. There is abstract of technical regulations and the list of actual Formula One teams, their cars and drivers. There is some pages acting with one of the Formula One team. In the last chapter some of technological experiments are presented.

The Use of Inerter in Vehicle Design
Lanzendörfer, Tomáš ; Hejtmánek, Petr (referee) ; Blaťák, Ondřej (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the inerter application in vehicle’s suspension. The aim was to perform a theoretical analysis of its features, to compare its construction layouts, to create a multibody model of the car’s suspension and to analyse inerter’s effects while performing different driving manoeuvres. All analyses were performed by MSC Adams View software with a little support from Matlab. The quality of ride comfort and accessible traction force were increased by the inerter almost in every case, and dynamic load of the suspension was also decreased in some cases. The inerter is a device with high potential, but with high purchase costs as well, so further development and practical research is necessary.

"When survive was victory". Contribution to the History of the Phenomenon of Formula 1 in the years 1970-1994
Fendrychová, Michaela ; Koura, Jan (advisor) ; Kovář, Martin (referee)
Résumé This thesis is focused on the Czech environment neglected history of sport, specific sporty branch - races F1. Thesis is concentrated on the years 1970-1994 because there are two important milestones in the history of F1 racing - the title of world champion in memoriam of Jochen Rindt 1970 and death of Ayrton Senna at Grand Prix San Marino at Imola 1994. Thesis will be looking the answer to the questions why this sport gained in researching period rising popularity, what was F1 social and economic relevance, how did formula 1 help to the further technological development of automotive, why it began to professionalize, what reasons and in which countries began F1 expand. Individual world champions will not miss out, especially Niki Lauda, James Hunt, Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna and other important personalities at whose fates will be the history of F1 in researching period also watch.

Team Lotus
ČAPEK, Tomáš
The thesis focuses on the history of Team Lotus, an undisputable part of the history of prestigious motorsport phenomenon - Formula 1. The thesis contains information about the team´s origin, its progress to its greatest achievements and its most notable drivers, just like the later decline in competitiveness and the eventual departure from the sport. Finally, it describes the more recent return of Lotus to F1. The practical part of the thesis provides a preparation of a lesson of English language for the ninth grade of an elementary school. It introduces the Team Lotus and the F1 terminology to the children within the topic SPORT. The lesson was uploaded to the methodical website RVP.CZ, where it serves as an example how to involve multicultural education in the lessons of English.

Scoring rules - ranked advanced voting systems
Zýková, Petra ; Jablonský, Josef (advisor) ; Dlouhý, Martin (referee)
This thesis deals with ranked advanced voting systems. The aim is to determine the overall winner and the ranking of candidates based on voters' preferences. The thesis utilises basic voting systems - plurality rules, lexicographical and Borda's method - as well as advanced voting systems with the application of DEA models, specifically DEA/AR model, DEA/AR exclusion model (including variations with penalties), and Llamazares-Peňa model. Compromise programming is used to obtain common vector of weights. The models and their use are demonstrated on Formula One Grand Prix results from season 2016. Formula One World Drivers' Championship and Formula One World Constructors' Championship are being investigated.

Comparison of the English, Russian and Czech Vocabulary in the Field of Motorsport
Kulichová, Zuzana ; Rozboudová, Lenka (advisor) ; Konečný, Jakub (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the English, Russian and Czech vocabulary in the field of motorsport, especially Formula 1. The theoretical part of the thesis concerns lexicology as a part of linguistic, its significance and disciplines. Then it describes the process of word formation in detail, mainly the process of borrowing. In the theoretical part there is also described the environment of Formula 1, distribution of the sport and its historical development in brief. The practical part of the thesis compares lexical units in English, Russian and Czech. Each of the chosen units contains its meaning, origin and an example of the use of the unit in a collocation. The aim of the thesis is not only to compare the vocabulary of different languages, but also to determine the measure in which English influences the Czech and Russian vocabulary in this field. KEYWORDS: borrowing, lexicology, sport, Formula 1, English, Russian, Czech
