Telemetric monitoring of the feral pigeon ( Columba livia f. domestica) population at the Karlovo namesti square in Prague
Kanov, Štěpán ; Řezníček, Jan (advisor) ; Novák, Jindřich (referee)
"A Telemetric monitoring of the feral pigeon ( Columba livia f. domestica) population at the Karlovo náměstí square in Prague" This thesis deals with both the monitoring of numbers in the pigeon (Columba livia f. domestica, "the Pigeon") sites in question and also the spatial definition of the daily activities of individual specimens using a telemetric system. Previous researches gathered data on population density and food routes usually obtained by observation. Therefore we believe it's important to supplement this data with spatial movement maps of individuals that cannot be obtained by observation but the telemetry system allows us to do so in certain time period. The data obtained from GPS trackers will be processed into daily spatial activity maps of the specimen. These data will hopefully help us to gain insight into the life of not just specific individuals, but will also allow us to derive spatial activity of the entire population living in the locality in question. The results will be compared with the results from the previous pigeon count. This knowledge can be useful to population control, or serve in other studies. Keywords: pigeon, abundance, telemetry

Post-synthesis synthesis: Czech kinetic art of the 60's and the following creative techniques of its protagonists
Sloupová, Andrea ; Havránek, Vít (referee) ; Klimešová, Marie (advisor)
The study analyses situation on Czech, formerly Czechoslovak, art scene during 70's and 80's of the twentieth century in context of the progress of kinetism. It addresses the question whether and how the kinetism as a synthesis of visual arts, architecture, theater, film and music but also science and technology has been promoted after the demise of the group of the same name. The study is divided into the three basic parts. After introducing the problem by attempt to delimit the kinetism on conceptual and temporal basis the first part follows the initial, rather sporadic, attempts of capturing the motion in the visual arts in a period of the first half of twentieth century. The substantial focus of this part is on the work of Zdenek Pesanek. The second part provides a brief insight by comparison and references into the aggradizement period of international kinetism that occurred in the 50s and through to 70s. In parallel with movement in the West it follows two particular groupments of kinetists in the Eastern block - the Muscovite group called Dvizhenie and the Prague's group Synthesis. The last, essential part of the study concentrates on several Czech personalities from 70s and 80s whose approaches of handling the topic represent various types of kinetism - luminodynamism and luminodynamic environment,...

Konstrukce fotopasti pomocí počítače RaspBerry Pi
ŠVÁB, Daniel
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to design a functional photo trap using the platform of oneboard computer Raspberry Pi version 2. Photo trap is going to be used as CCTV or Security camera which také a photo every time it recognizes a movement. When the photo is taken, Raspberry Pi sends it to owner´s e-mail address and a notification about a movement detection is sent via Pushetta app to his mobile.

Forks for handling logs
Seďa, Marek ; Juřík, Josef (referee) ; Škopán, Miroslav (advisor)
This master’s thesis with product design forks for handling logs as attachments for tractors Zetor Forterra the specified load capacity 1200 kg. The work is mainly focused on the design frame and fork clamps, the necessary calculations and ultimately strength check of designed structures. The work is also addressed in detail the linear hydraulic motor used for the rotational movement of the jaws, including the calculation of fork. Then there are the design calculations and stress analysis of journals. It also checked the stability of the machine. Stress analysis is performed for different load conditions and the jaw frame finite elements. As another part is making all the drawings.

Reconstruction of motion blurred digital photographs
Papež, Michal ; Šroubek, Filip (referee) ; Pelikán, Josef (advisor)
In the present work we study digital reconstruction techniques of photographs that were damaged by simple camera motion during exposition. The work describes and compares procedures of image reconstruction in spatial and frequency domain. Special attention was given to algorithms of inverse filtration type. One of them was modi ed for restoration purpose. Another algorithms for estimating camera movement during exposition and inverse lter adjustment were designed and proposed. The in fluence of noise on the quality of reconstruction was studied. Another task was to design and implement an automatic tool for reconstruction. The proposed algorithms were then tested and evaluated on the base of this tool. Although the quality of reconstructed images is not on the expected level for common undamaged photographs, they should satisfy the requirements for usual technical purposes. Comparing the damaged and reconstructed images the improvement is evident.

Neuromodulation in treatment of selected dystonic syndromes
Havránková, Petra ; Jech, Robert (advisor) ; Štětkářová, Ivana (referee) ; Rokyta, Richard (referee)
Dystonia is a neurological syndrome characterized by the involuntary contraction of opposing muscles, causing twisting movements or abnormal postures (modified by Fahn, 1987). Writer's cramp is the most common form of task-specific focal dystonia. In the first study, patients with writer's cramp were evaluated for differences in cortical activation during movements likely to induce cramps (complex movements) and movements which rarely lead to dystonia (simple movements). Although complex patient movements during fMRI were never associated with dystonic cramps, they exhibited abnormally decreased cortical activity. This was not observed in simple movements and was unrelated to the character of handwriting or the presence/absence of visual feedback. Our results support the theory of dualistic sensorimotor system behavior in writer's cramp. As the somatosensory system is believed to be affected in focal dystonia, we focused on modulation of the primary somatosensory cortex (SI) induced by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in the second study, in order to improve writer's cramp. In conclusion, 1 Hz rTMS of the SI cortex can improve manifestations of writer's cramp while increasing cortical activity in both hemispheres. Handwriting as well as subjective assessment improved in most...

Servomechanical movement control of photovoltaic panel
Uher, Ondřej ; Voldán, Jiří (referee) ; Němec, Zdeněk (advisor)
Thesis deals with the introduction to the production of electricity using photovoltaic panels and the relative position between panels and the Sun. The project aim was to design equipment to ensure the vertical position of the solar panels towards the Sun during the day so as to achieve maximum energy gain from sunlight. Pointing mechanism will be governed by the date and time.

Exchange rate during crisis
Tran Thi, Anh Phuong ; Pošta, Vít (advisor) ; Rusmichová, Lada (referee)
The aim of this thesis analysis of exchange rates development during financial crisis of 2008 in the case of selected currency pairs. The thesis is focused primarily on empirical analysis of exchange rate movements in small open economies, namely the Czech Republic, Poland and Hungary. The theoretical part is devoted to balance of payments, exchange rate theories and economic crises 2008. The analytical part is devoted to the effects of major macroeconomic indicators on exchange rate development and empirical verification of major fundamental theories of exchange rate. The work explores the possible causes of fluctuations in exchange rates during recent crisis and their impact on the real economy.

Mičkal, Ondřej ; Holubec, Michal (referee) ; Vosecký, Slavomír (advisor)
This diploma thesis discusses and compares the current technologies and systems that are used to monitor and control movements on the airport surface. The paper presents the basic characteristics, operational principles and possibilities. Comparison provides an overview of their strengths and limitations in operational use. It also deals with this issue at the Ostrava Leos Janacek Airport, describes current situation and suggests how to solve problems associated with the introduction of CAT III precision approach and landing as well as monitoring and controlling of movements on the airfield under poor weather conditions.
