City within the City / "Trnitá City Block"
Solár, Michal ; Hybská, Bohumila (referee) ; Nový, Vítězslav (advisor)
The area of today's southern center of Brno was determined from the very beginning by the location of the rivers Svratka, Svitava and their drives, which defined the southern part of the city as a fertile area suitable for cultivation. After the advent of industrialism, the city transformed rapidly. The southern area was transformed from smaller villages into industrial units, which, due to the proximity of water and the newly established railway, expanded after 1838 to the entire vicinity of the Trnitá district. Already in this period, the location of the station by the Svratka River (in the proposed position from 2016) began to be considered, but due to the waterlogged soil and difficult construction conditions, it was decided for the station under the walls. It was this decision and the unsatisfactory conditions of waterlogged land for the development of the industrial area closer to the Svratka River that caused the suspension of the development of the southern suburbs. The proposal seeks to reflect the context of Brno's apartment buildings in the vicinity of the area, which lacks a comprehensive context and scale. At the same time, however, to solve the environmental problem by proper management of rainwater or the use and design of a recycled perimeter cladding of material obtained after the demolition of other buildings. The building is structurally designed as a combination of a wall system with monolithic, communication cores and the first floor.

Compact City - or what new is able to yet be done in Brno among railway stations
Stuchlík, Aleš ; Konvička, Miloslav (referee) ; Havliš, Karel (advisor)
Project deals with the Brno main railway station and a large area behind this station, including the broader context of a railway junction in Brno and the suburban area. Station is located in the user-friendly and operationally advantageous location in the city center. „Zanádraží“, from the city center point of view, remains behind the station, but it isn`t the city inside periphery anymore. Proximity to city center, train and bus station and the river „Svratka“ give uniquely positioned for the generation of attractive neighborhoods. Author rejects functionalist arrangement of cities and vertical segregation of communications. The new city district is formed by use traditional urban repertoire: streets, squares and waterfronts defined by closed block development. The emphasis is on functional public transportation system, favorable conditions for pedestrian movement and the sustainability of private transport, which is providing a facility for ensuring the service areas, but not for undirected growth threatening urban environment.

WATER+TOWN AQUADOMOS river story
Toman, Ondřej ; Vágnerová, Lenka (referee) ; Poslušná, Iva (advisor)
The result of design is architectural and urban design of unused area in Brno - Pisárky. This area was own by Water works company Brno. The area is situated next to the river Svratka. New research, information and exhibition center is designed on this place. The whole design was created in the context of river Svratka. The building which was designed there is called Aquadomos. This building consists of free pavilions. Each has a different use. The middle one contains main entrance, multipurpose recture halls, exhibitions areas, cash desk, information point and cafe. The largest pavilion contains exhibition area which is devided into six parts. The smallest pavilion which is situated close to the river contains administration department and laboratories. The external form, shape of building, is inspirated by river, waves, shape of landscape. Park is designed in the rest of parcel. In the park there are terraces to the river for easy access closer to the river Svratka. One of the main idea was to bring life closer to the river, to rediscover river in the structure of Brno.

Suspended Sediment Load Balance in a Selected Profiles of the Thaya and Svratka River Basins
Priesner, Radek ; Mikl, Libor (referee) ; Marton, Daniel (advisor)
The balance of suspended sediment, i.e. undissolved substances carried in suspension, load in the hydrometric profiles Hevlín/Thaya, Přibice/Jihlava, Znojmo/Thaya and Židlochovice/Svratka is evaluated in this thesis. The measurements and the subsequent evaluation of the suspended sediment are carried out according to the official Austrian methodological manual, so this paper is a continuation of the previously written bachelor thesis. In addition, the selected basic steps recommended by the Austrian methodology for the actual measurement of the suspended sediment are compared with official procedures from the United States and the Czech Republic. On top of that, the work comes with innovative ways of correcting the data measured by the optical probe. The results will be used in the project ATCZ28 SEDECO – Sediments, ecosystem services and interrelation with floods and droughts in the AT-CZ border region, from which the measurement records from 2019 to 2022 themselves are available. All results are also compared with the measurements of the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute.

Project of Small Water Power Station
Hlavica, Tomáš ; Novotný, Jan (referee) ; Matoušek, Antonín (advisor)
Hydroelectric power plants in the Czech Republic are the most important component of electricity production from renewable sources. A hydroelectric power plant in our country produces 3.9% of the total energy, which is almost half of the 8.2% of all renewable sources. Regarding the large hydroelectric power plants and those already in the Czech Republic is very likely to accrue more, because in this sphere we need to focus on smaller hydroelectric power plants, up to 10MW included. The task of this project is to design just such a small hydropower plants (SHP), which could be an interesting investment for people nearby of larger rivers. In the first part of my project is to choose a suitable area for construction of SHP. In the second part is ma task identify and propose solutions water and hydropower

Brno City Hospital
Lebedev, Ilya ; Hybská, Bohumila (referee) ; Sedláček, Michal (advisor)
The subject of the diploma thesis is the architectural design of the city hospital in Brno. The work is based on a previously developed studio project from the winter semester. The subject of studio project was the design of an urban and transport concept for the selected area. The selected site is located in the wider city center on the right bank of the Svratka river in the westernmost part of the Brno-střed district in the cadastral area of Pisárky. The whole land is owned by the city. It has a markedly sloping terrain with difficult foundation conditions due to the landslide. Although it is close to the river, there is no risk of floods of any kind. The main idea of the design is a connection of the new hospital complex with the existing city structure, Anthropos park and especially the surrounding nature. The chosen shape is inspired and based on the outline of the blue star of life. It is a combination of monoblock and pavilion type, which offers flexibility, facilitates orientation and has the potential for organic growth for future development. The building is conveniently oriented, opening towards the exhibition center and the historic part of the city. From the western and southern part it is surrounded by forest, from the eastern by tree alley and the river Svratka, from the northern part by Anthropos park. The construction of the hospital should make the site more attractive. The accompanying program will include landscaping, a new café by the retention lake, sports activities, a pavilion for medicine and nature, which together with the Anthropos pavilion will complement the educational activities in the area. The aim of the design was to create a quality environment for patients and staff in a unique location on the waterfront and to provide maximum connection with the surrounding nature.
