Bioactive substances for face cream: Determination of stability of face cream incorporated with goat's milk
Dostálová, Tereza ; Sovová, Šárka (referee) ; Enev, Vojtěch (advisor)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is a stability trial of a skin cream incorporated with goat milk lyophilizates prepared in usual laboratory conditions. Firstly, the goat milk was denatured, to be further analysed via FTIR, elemental analysis and thermogravimetry. To compare the denaturation effect, measurements with native goat milk sample were performed as well. Next, an emulsion was prepared. First stability tests were performed using analytical centrifuge and the cream preparation procedure and component ratio was optimized. Stability trials were carried out at specified time intervals. Rheological properties – especially yield stress values and structure strength, determined by linear viscoelastic region and complex modulus – thermal endurance measured via differential scanning calorimetry and visual validation via optical microscopy and sample observation were tested and performed. Skin cream stability of sample stored at laboratory temperature was demonstrated, showing moderate sings of structure destabilisation. Product suitability for dry skin was proved by sensory analysis. The skin feeling was pleasant, and the cream moisturized the surface area, that it was applied to, according to evaluators. Visually, the emulsion appeared to maintain its properties during the experiment time range, it did not undergo a complete degradation of separation into two original phases, nor it was degraded, for example by mold.

A method for the visualization of high phase gradients in a microscopic image
Druckmüllerová, Hana ; Martišek, Dalibor (referee) ; Chmelík, Radim (advisor)
Holografická mikroskopie je nekonvenční mikroskopická technika, vhodná zvláště pro vzorky s malou optickou hustotou, která umožňuje zviditelnit index lomu pozorovaných objektů. Na Ústavu fyzikálního inženýrství Fakulty strojního inženýrství VUT v Brně byl sestrojen unikátní transmisní digitální holografický mikroskop (TDHM). Pořízené snímky (hologramy) jsou zpracovány metodou založenou na Fourierově ransformaci, čímž je zrekonstruována intenzita a fáze světelné vlny procházející pozorovaným objektem. Fáze popisuje index lomu a tloušťku pozorovaného objektu. V místech, kde se mění index lomu nebo tloušťka, dochází i ke změně fáze. Úkolem této bakalářské práce bylo najít metodu pro zviditelnění míst s vysokým gradientem fáze. Podařilo se vytvořit metodu, která nevyžaduje navazování fáze, a proto je vhodná pro libovolné obrazy pořízené TDHM. Tato metoda byla implementována do počítačového programu Gradient3D, který kromě výpočtu gradientu ve dvou a třech rozměrech umožňuje i vytváření barevných obrazů, jejichž složkami jsou kombinace intenzity, fáze a gradientu. Program též umožňuje odstranění falešných gradientů v místech s nízkou intenzitou, kde je hodnota fáze nespolehlivá. Program byl testován na několika souborech hologramů pořízených TDHM při pozorování biologických vzorků.

FRP composite materials resistance to the effects of selected corrosive environments
Mičkal, Petr ; Prokeš,, Jan (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
This thesis deals with monitoring of the durability of FRP reinforcements in alkaline environments with differing temperature exposures. The theoretical part of the thesis consists of a general description of the FRP composites, the manufacturing of these FRP reinforcements using pultrusion technology, the resistance of these composites in aggressive alkaline environments, and the influence of temperature on the speed and manner of degradation. In the experimental part of this thesis, the FRP reinforcements were placed in an alkaline environment tempered at different temperatures (20 °C, 40 °C, 60 °C). Subsequently, any optical physical changes of the reinforcements were described and evaluated by the use of optical microscopy and the destructive tests of these reinforcements.

Design of illumination module for CCHM microscope
Pachl, Přemysl ; Špaček, Matěj (referee) ; Dostál, Zbyněk (advisor)
This bachelor thesis starts with a brief overview of the basic imaging methods used in classical and quantitative phase microscopy. The main aim of the thesis is to design, construct and test a tomographic illuminator compatible with the laboratory version of the Q-PHASE microscope. The design is decomposed into several parts, where in the first step the optical requirements of the system are determined using the laws of geometrical optics. Suitable optical components are then selected and simulations are performed in the Zemax software to verify that all specified requirements are met. The compactness and compatibility of the assembly is taken into account in the design. Therefore, a prism with total internal reflection is used to illuminate the amplitude light modulator. Furthermore, the design solutions for mounting the light source, the prism and the amplitude modulator are proposed. The developed drawings are attached to this thesis. The whole assembly is assembled, adjusted and its correct function is verified by means of 16 test tomographic projections.

Study of FRP for concrete reinforcement
Blahová, Aneta ; Prokeš,, Jan (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
The diploma thesis aims to analyze bent FRP reinforcements. It describes the method of production of bent FRP reinforcement, examples of application of FRR reinforcement in structures and mentions aggressive influences influencing the durability of FRP reinforcement. Furthermore, an experiment is proposed to monitor changes in straight and bent FRP reinforcement stored in an aqueous environment at 20 °C and an alkaline environment at 20 °C and 40 °C. The output of the diploma thesis is the evaluation of changes in mechanical properties and durability. The condition of the FRP reinforcement is documented using optical and electron mocroscopy.

Luminescence of semiconductors studied by scanning near-field optical microscopy
Těšík, Jan ; Klapetek, Petr (referee) ; Křápek, Vlastimil (advisor)
This work is focused on the study of luminescence of atomic thin layers of transition metal chalkogenides (eg. MoS2). In the experimental part, the work deals with the preparation of atomic thin layers of semiconducting chalcogenides and the subsequent manufacturing of plasmonic interference structures around these layers. The illumination of the interference structure will create a standing plasmonic wave that will excite the photoluminescence of the semiconductor. Photoluminescence was studied both by far-field spectroscopy and near-field optical microscopy.

Methodology for determining the provenance of natural stone - sandstone – using exact laboratory methods
Přikryl, Richard ; Weishauptová, Zuzana ; Přikrylová, Jiřina
Metodika se zabývá hlavními postupy a analytickými rozbory, které lze využít k petrografickému a geochemickému popisu pískovců, který poté slouží k určování jejich provenience. V metodice je diskutován rozsah použití jednotlivých metod pro popis pískovců a současné možnosti jejich petrografické klasifikace. Certifikovaná metodika je určena pro oblast památkové péče, která využívá výsledků materiálových rozborů objektů kulturního dědictví – sochařských výtvarných děl, architektonických prvků a staveb, zhotovených z pískovců. Výsledky, dosažené pomocí postupy, navrženými v této metodice by měly přispět: (1) ke zpřesnění znalostí o tomto typu sochařského a stavebního materiálu; (2) ke sjednocení postupů, používaných při klasifikaci pískovců; (3) k nalezení zdrojové lokality či alespoň oblasti, z níž byl přírodní kámen (pískovec) odebírán; (4) k hledání vhodného náhradního typu pískovce při nutnosti výměny; (5) k poznání vhodných postupů při restaurování pískovce. Oblast využití této metodiky je tedy při předrestaurátorských materiálových průzkumech památek, na nichž byl použit příslušný typ přírodního kamene, tedy pískovec. Metodika je určena širšímu okruhu specialistů, kteří se podílejí na předrestaurátorských materiálových průzkumech památek. Jedná se nejen o specialisty – geology, kteří provádějí samotný rozbor přírodního kamene z památek, ale též specialisty, kteří rozbor zadávají a kteří výsledky průzkumu potřebují pro volbu vhodné strategie restaurování – tedy restaurátory a technology. Těmto specializacím by metodika měla posloužit při formulování požadavků na typ rozboru a při interpretaci jeho výsledků. Metodika byla certifikována dne 18. 8. 2016, Osvědčení č. 143 (č.j. MK 53116/2016 OVV; sp. zn. MK-S 6346/2016 OVV).
