Information on Personal Pronouns in Czech Grammar Books
Kubeková, Michaela ; Macurová, Alena (advisor) ; Adam, Robert (referee)
This dissertation compares information on personal pronouns provided in grammar books, general linguistic analyses, dictionaries, and other essays and studies dealing with this topic. The first chapter examines seven Czech grammar books, from which information relating to personal pronouns (including spheres which relate only tangentially to personal pronouns, e.g. the formulation of the pronominal subject, the category of grammatical person, deixis, anaphora, the coherence of a text, etc.) is extracted and compared. The second chapter looks at information contained in five general linguistics manuals, and the third chapter is concerned with the information given in the three most popular dictionaries. Information contained in other publications and essays related to the topic of personal pronouns (including several foreign periodicals) is cited in the form of footnotes to the individual chapters. By way of conclusion this dissertation seeks to characterise the main divergences between the individual types of publications examined and summarise the basic differences (or similarities) in their approaches.

The estate of Luboš Fišer
Hájek, Jonáš ; Havelková, Tereza (advisor) ; Douša, Eduard (referee)
This thesis presents the estate of the composer Luboš Fišer (1935-99). The catalogue of a significant part of his estate, and a detailed list of compositions based thereon, form the core of the thesis. The preceding accompanying text formulates and reflects on various problems connected with the processing of the estate and the related factual account. Apart from the general description of the fund it brings up a range of new issues, namely the issues of notation from external manifestations and textual problems to the notation analysis; it also deals with contemporary reception and with the transformations of the tonal material. Thus, it critically examines various aspects of Fišer's works for concert hall, laying aside the question of style which has already been answered.

Computation of an anisotropic and nonlinear magnetic field by the finite element method
Kunický, Zdeněk ; Křížek, Michal (referee) ; Vejchodský, Tomáš (advisor)
In the present work we study the modelling of stationary magnetic fields in nonlinear anisotropic media by FEM. The magnetic characteristics of such materials are thoroughly examined and eventually applied to the construction of a full 2D model of an anisotropic steel sheet. Some improvements in the construction in comparison with the ones previously published are achieved. We also present an extension of a 3D model of steel and dielectric laminations for anisotropic sheets. We point out that the standard formulations and the subsequent theorems for the boundary value problems in fact do not correspond with the physical situation. Instead, we propose new formulations that reflect the real physical properties of matter. General existence and uniqueness theorems for the obtained boundary value problems are proved as well as the convergence theorems for the discrete solutions. Finally, the conventional and full 2D model of an anisotropic steel sheet are compared in two transformer core models using the adaptive Newton-Raphson iterative scheme and the obtained results are presented and analysed.

The Business Plan
Vlasatý, Martin ; Krause, Josef (advisor) ; Muller, Dušan (referee)
The aim of this thesis is firstly to present the business plan in general terms, with a particular focus on the definition, the reasons for its formulation, the form and structure of this document. The criteria of the investment decision-making are also included in this theoretical part, containing static as well as dynamic methods of the investment evaluation. Afterwards, the practical part is introduced, comprising a specific business plan formulation. This business plan deals with the project of the construction of a small commercial filling station, which will most likely be carried out by Proton, s.r.o. company based in Protivín in due course. The practical part will also be provided to the management of Proton company and serve as a source of information and analysis, which after extensions and corrections will be used for the formulation of the company's own real business plan.

Comparison of fracture behaviour of notches and cracks
Klusák, Jan ; Knésl, Zdeněk
The theoretical background of linear elastic fracture mechanics of V-notches is presented. A crack is considered as a special case of the V-notch with zero open angle. Conditions for stability of a general singular stress concentrator are formulated. Based on results obtained a fracture behaviour of notches and cracks is compared.

The Leiniger and the Giger-Davidhizar assessment model and their use in practice
HRÁZSKÁ, Kateřina
Medical staff and therefore also nurses may currently more and more often meet patients from foreign countries. It is beyond question that these clients have their own specific biological, psychological and social needs which the nurses should respect. Theoretical part of this assignment describes the issue of trans-cultural nursing, defines it and explains its importance and historical development. It also deals with some of the multi-cultural care models, i.e. the models by Leininger, Giger-Davidhizar, Campinhy-Bacote and Bloch's Ethnic Nursing Care. In general it also mentions conceptual nursing models, their definitions, origin and importance. The following goals were set for this dissertation: Goal 1: Map the issues related to the Leininger's and Giger-Davidhizar's models and their practical use in selected hospitals in the Czech Republic. Goal 2: Find out if nurses use aspects of multi-cultural nursing within their nursing care for foreign patients. Goal 3: Find out how the nurses benefit from using the trans-cultural nursing models for foreign patients within their nursing process. Goal 4: Formulate nursing documents suitable for application of nursing care for foreign patients. Based on the above goals, several research questions were defined: 1. What nursing models are used in selected hospitals in the Czech Republic? 2. How do nursing documents in selected hospitals in the Czech Republic respect nursing process specifics when foreign patients are concerned? 3. Are nurses aware (and in what scope) of the principles of the Leininger's and Giger-Davidhizar's models? 4. How do nurses use trans-cultural nursing models when caring for foreign patients? 5. How do nurses, in their opinion, satisfy foreign patients' biological, psychological and social needs with respect to their cultural differences? 6. How do nurses educate themselves in multi-cultural care? In practical part of the work, nursing documents or anamneses from selected hospitals in the Czech Republic were collected and their content was analysed with focus on multi-cultural aspects identification. Gathered results were then plot in charts. In the next phase of the investigation, semi-structured interviews were held with ten nurses working in standard wards of selected health-care facilities which provided nursing anamneses. Each of the nurses worked in different hospital. The outcome of my dissertation is a draft of nursing anamnesis based on the Leininger's model which is suitable for data collection from patients coming from different cultural backgrounds.

The influence of electoral systems on party systems. Comparison of Polish, Slovak, German and Austrian Case.
Nemeth, Marek ; Novák, Miroslav (advisor) ; Lebeda, Tomáš (referee)
The author is interested in electoral and political system in Poland, Slovakia, Germany and Austria. At the beginning he rises two basic questions which he would like to answer - Which electoral method is similar to contemporary electoral systems in chosen countries in a result? And how would be changed political-party- system, i f there were another electoral methods? In the General the author offers a detailed look at the analysis of the types of electoral systems, franchise and party systems. This General part is assumption for the Special part which is focused on an research. In the fourth Chapter the author describes electoral systems in Poland, Slovakia, Germany and Austria and in the fifth Chapter he describes party system in those chosen countries. The own research starts in the sixth chapter. The author analyses the results of the last election in Poland (2005), Slovakia (2006), Germany (2005) and Austria (2006) by index of deformation, index Loosemore - Hanby, and index of aggregation. In the next Chapters author analyses parliamentary electoral results in four countries, then he follows new electoral methods (D'Hondt, Imperiáli, Saint Laguě, Hare, Hagenbach-Bischoff) on those results in Poland (2005), Slovakia (2006), Germany (2005) and Austria (2006). In the last Chapter author resumes the...

The Fetish of the Oldest Sound. Science, politics, and the fascination with the beginnings of sound recordings
Kratochvíl, Matěj
The invention of the phonograph in the late 19th century started an obsession with the recorded sound as a document of history. As such it became an important part of the human need to create stories from archival materials and to see them as parts of objective truth, a direct connection with the past. With the growing accessibility of historical audio documents, we need to look critically at these sources and at the possibility to take them as a trace leading to the beginning of a particular part of music history. The present paper shows in which ways we can see the phenomenon of sound recording truly as the beginning of something new and in which cases such an impression can be misleading. Unconsciously or with a political or other intent, recordings can present music in a very different, sometimes distorted form. With special focus on traditional music, the author attempts to formulate some general ideas that should be kept in mind when dealing with historical recordings so that we do not become too fascinated with the “past speaking directly to us”.
