Vitality and germination juniper (\kur{Juniperus communis}) seeds
OKROUHLÁ, Ilona
The thesis focuses on the fertility and vitality of common juniper seeds (Juniperus communis). Random galbula samples from two areas were tested. Amount of seeds per one galbula were compared, seed fullness and vitality were compared via the colouring method, as well as the weight, as well as a try to cancel the dormancy using gibberelinic acid GA,, following the aim to plant more seedlings. The results were compared to seed values and to findings from other authors. If the issue of lower seed fullness and vitality is clarified, more suitable methods of juniper population proliferation and support maybe worked out.

Czech community in Australia in transnational perspective
Hlaváčková, Tereza ; Šatava, Leoš (advisor) ; Jakoubek, Marek (referee)
This study deals with Czech speakers in Australia, focusing on their use of the Czech and English languages as tools of belonging to a community. Its aim is to discuss the situation of Czech speakers on the continent from the perspective of a small Czech language in an English-speaking country. The starting point for the study is scientific publications on bilingualism, multilingualism and transnationalism issued in the Czech and English-speaking environments. Another source is books about the history of the immigration and language policies in Australia and about the Australian identity. Finally, the methods involve field research based on participant observation of groups of Czechs in social networks and during Czech church services in Sydney in November 2015. Fieldwork is also based on semi-structured interviews which took place in Australia between August 2014 and January 2016. They were intended to study the reality of Czech speakers in Australia and to illustrate the theories on the use of language by bilingual speakers in the Australian context. The first part of this study gives the theoretical background to the notions of transnationalism, belonging to a group, bilingualism and changes in language use. The second part focuses on language and immigration policies of the states of Australia...

Impact assessment of the shopping mall construction on the city centre
Zavřelová, Pavla ; Spilková, Jana (advisor) ; Bednář, Pavel (referee)
This thesis focuses on problems related to unregulated construction of shopping malls in the city centres. Shopping malls are often built considering their negative effects on small merchants, urban environment etc. This particular problem was analyzed in two cities (Pardubice and Liberec) using elements of Retail Impact Assessment study and counterfactual impact evaluation method. Results showed that placing the shopping malls to the city centre changes the structure of retail units in its vicinity. Since customers prefer larger shopping facilities, their shopping behaviour changes, and small merchants are forced to addapt and compete with "all under one roof" shopping centers. Some of them cannot compete with these centers and are forced to close. Contribution of this research focuses on application of unique methods which indicated a need to regulate and coordinate building of large shopping centers within Czech cities. Key words: retail impact assessment, city centre, vitality, shopping mall

Lifecycle of selected building
Smečková, Veronika ; Aubusová,, Alena (referee) ; Tichá, Alena (advisor)
In this thesis, the main objective is to determine the price of selected construction project during its life cycle and assess operational costs. As a selected object is a family town house built in 1982 as a building type okal. The theoretical part is devoted to professional concepts and detailed information regarding the lifecycle, durability, budget, and wear-related issues. The practical part includes an itemized budget and the actual award of a selected object by using the software on valuation. The resulting values of individual valuation methods are then compared and graphically displayed. Furthermore I judge the actual operating costs incurred during the period.

Vitality in the architectonic environment
Eyer, David ; Horáček, Martin (referee) ; Hudec, Mojmír (referee) ; Kyselka, Mojmír (referee) ; Žabičková, Ivana (advisor)
More and more research studies are being conducted on the quality of architectural space as a factor affecting our mental, social and physical health. In the past, this topic was often overlooked in its complexity. The establishment of the specialized fields of building biology, biophilic architecture and the works of Christopher Alexander and Nikos Salingaros now allow us to consider various facets of this subject. This dissertation aims to analyse the topic of vitality in architectural space by studying the abilities and perceptions of its users. Therefore its aim is not to develop a new theory of “vitality-enhancing architectural space”, but to describe how this phenomenon is perceived by the users themselves. Users can provide feedback on which features of architectural space they see as the most important for the feeling of vitality. These features have been hierarchically organized based on their perceived importance, analysed and described in detail to allow their relatively easy application in practice. This dissertation will also allow a comparison with other existing works on the studied topic.

Investigation of yeast properties during the beer fermentation
Kociánová, Lenka ; Vítová, Eva (referee) ; Omelková, Jiřina (advisor)
In this diploma thesis, the properities of brewery’s yeasts during the operation beer fermentation in the selected brewery and dependences of diferent agents and their influence on viability and vitality of the yeasts were studied. Other observed properities were physiological state, pH, temperature, a value of soft and coarse sludges, a value of dissolved oxygen in wort, the level of wort’s fermentation. It were collected the samples of fermenting wort and washing yeasts for determination. The used yeasts were observed from the first time until thein last used (generally 4 times). pH, temperature, apparent fermenting and total numer of yeast cells were measured in the collected samples. The used yeasts were washed before every other application and vitality was determined. The number of death cells were observed by this method. The number of death cells never fell bellow 5 %. The value of dissolved oxygen in wort is also the important agent for the growth of yeasts. The touchs with low number of oxygen showed that the time for fermentation had to be longer (by about 3 or 4 days more). The touchs with higher number of sludges showed that the sludges haven’t any influence on the yeasts and the procces of fermentation. Confirm the accuracy of the repeated used of the yeasts was the object of this thesis.
