Dexterity, or build your house
Netrefová, Klára ; MA, Klára Zahradníčková, (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
The design of anthropoid / metamorphosis loosely follows the pre-diploma project Fortel or so called "build a house" when I decided to "put my hand to the work, cut, drill, fold…" and to rediscover the imprints of work and tools in the mass from which they disappeared due to the mass production. The output of the project was an eclectic, crumbling garden of prefabricated bricks. Capillary (open) porosity usually occurs in brick products. It allows the penetration and retention of a relatively large amount of water. The bricks are made of natural mineral raw materials, as well as expanded clay, which is commonly used as a hydroponic substrate. At the same time, the porosity of the brick blocks causes future degradation of the material in the exterior. The disrupted "worked" ceramic blocks in the garden burst, mix with the substrate and create a breeding ground for plants. In my diploma thesis I move away from materials formed into modules, imported to the construction site, and I deal with matter in its freest fluid form and forms arising in-situ. The work is permeated by three fluid media, water, clay and concrete. Concrete - initially a fluid material, takes the form of two other materials, solidifies. Clay - as a semi-solid - semi-fluid material Water - infinitely fluid material, still present, rapidly transforms, and periodically comes and disappears, transforms the other two materials. The materials mix together, form into matter, then drain and disintegrate and disappear when their time comes. With these nature-friendly processes, the design works on three scales. On a micro scale, matter decomposes into gravel, sand, loess, which nourishes soils and plants, and allows an environment suitable for a variety of animals. In the middle scale, these are small objects that shape and manipulate the landscape. And in a big scale, it is co-working with the landscape itself.

The Collapse of the Civic Forum in the Context of a New Party System
Řezníčková, Barbora ; Švec, Kamil (advisor) ; Brunclík, Miloš (referee)
Diploma thesis The collapse of the Civic Forum in the context of a new party system deals with the political movement Civic Forum, which was established after November 1989. Describes how the Civic Forum was what led to this event. Then there is the outlined operation of this movement and its influence on the development of the Czech party system. In other parts of the thesis describes the functioning of the successor party Civic Forum Civic Democratic Party, Civic Movement, and Civic Democratic Alliance. An important factor is also a breakup of the Czechoslovak federation.

Collapse of the USSR - Russsian national tragedy? Analysis of the Russian public opinion on the dissolution of the Soviet Union
Lelek, Jakub ; Svoboda, Karel (advisor) ; Kolenovská, Daniela (referee)
Bachelor thesis Collapse of the USSR - Russian national tragedy? Analysis of the Russian public opinion on the dissolution of the Soviet Union discusses the Russian public opinion development about the end of the Soviet Union during the presidency of Boris Yeltsin (1991 - 1999) and Vladimir Putin (2000 - 2008). The first chapter illustrates the situation in Russia after the collapse of the USSR; afterwards it describes the social, political and economic situation of the country during mentioned periods. Based on the available opinion polls and academic works the second part of the thesis examines the shift in Russian understanding of the collapse of the Soviet Union. The fundamental premise of this thesis is the idea that the end of the USSR was Russian national tragedy. After the analysis author concludes that in Russian society during the presidency of both Yeltsin and Putin remained a basic level of post- Soviet nostalgia, yet it wasn't a national tragedy. The regretting was presented within the older generation, for which the Soviet Union symbolized not only a major global player in international politics, but also their own (often idealized) youth, as well as within the younger generation, that has never had direct experience with the USSR. Furthermore author concludes that due to the...

Processing and analysis of HS videorecords of liquid atomization for a pressure-swirl nozzle
Červenec, Adam ; Lízal, František (referee) ; Jedelský, Jan (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with processes of liquid atomization for a pressure-swirl nozzle. The main goal was to study liquid cone, which is gradually fragmenting on smaller parts ending in creating small droplets. It was needed to study theory of liquid flow, motion of droplets and an impact of the geometry of nozzle. When the theoretical part ended we could perform an experiment, which consists of preparing devices and creating own video records using highspeed camera Photron FASTCAM SA-Z. The camera provided us detailed view on the spray and events, for example collisions of droplets, which are the main subject of this thesis. Afterwards the video records were analyzed and we could provide results connected with studied problem.

Experimental study of spray characteristics and functionality of small pressure-swirl atomizers
Malý, Milan ; Lízal, František (referee) ; Jedelský, Jan (advisor)
Diplomová práce se zabývá experimentální studií vlastností spreje z několika malých tlakových vířivých trysek používaných ve spalovacích komorách proudových motorů. Po desetiletí byla snaha zlepšit jejich rozprašovací charakteristiky a stále jsou možnosti, které nebyly téměř prozkoumány. Výzkum byl proveden za použití různých geometrií jednotlivých dílů trysky za účelem zjištění jejich vlivu na sprej. Byl použit různý počet vstupních portů (2, 3 a 4), různé vířivé komůrky (kulová, kuželová, konvexní, nízká kuželová) a rozdílné návrhy obtokového otvoru (osové, mimosové). Důraz byl kladen na posouzení stability spreje, kde pulzující sprej negativně ovlivňuje provozní charakteristiky spalovací komory. Vlastnosti spreje byly proměřeny fázovým dopplerovským analyzátorem, cirkulární homogenita byla hodnocena mechanickým paternátorem a rozpad kapaliny byl vizualizován pomocí jednoduchého laserového stínografu.

Quality of fuel atomization from small pressure-swirl atomizers
Malý, Milan ; Broukal, Jakub (referee) ; Jedelský, Jan (advisor)
Tato bakalářská práce se zabývá měřením charakteristik spreje z tlakové vířívé trysky za použití fázového doplerovského analyzátoru. Cílem měření bylo stanovit a porovnat charakteristiky spreje za použití různých kapalin a různých režimů tlaků a rozhodnout, jestli je možné nahradit kerosin biopalivy z pohledu kvality atomizace. Teoretická část se zabývá základy rozpadu kapalin z tlakových vířivých trysek a principy laserové anemometrie. Experimentální část popisuje testovací trať, provozní podmínky a nastavení experimentu. Výsledy obsahují vizualizaci spreje, velikostní rozložení kapek uvnitř spreje, profily rychlosti a Sautrova středního průměru za použití různých provozních podmínek jako je různá vzdálenost od trysky, rozdílný vstupní tlak a různé kapaliny.

The ethnic question and federalism: a comparison of the splits of Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia
Bidlová, Veronika ; Lisa, Aleš (advisor) ; Prorok, Vladimír (referee)
The thesis outlines a comparative case study that focuses on the separation of the Communist Federation - Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia. The main aim of the work is to analyze the relationship between the functionality of the Communist Federation and the limited solution of the ethnic issues inside the investigated states as one of the causes of their splits in the early 1990s. Further objectives of the work include an investigation into the similarities and differences in the development of the ethnic relations of the states and also an analysis in the way they separated. The author focuses on the question regarding whether or not the splits were inevitable or whether there were possibilities for the maintenance of the common states.

The causes of the brakup of the ČSFR
KLESTIL, Jakub
In my bachelor work I deal with breakup of Czechoslovakia in year 1992. I submit description of events which led to this dismemberment of the republic. I try to explain terms like federation, national coexistence and relation between Czech and Slovak. I concentrate on events, whose influence is not evident at first look, but they are important. I also work on evaluation of development after several years. My work is based on works of Czech and Slovak authors, Jan Rychlik mainly. The goal is to give a picture of post-revolutionary development in ČSFR and to find out the reasons of breakup of the republic.
