Analysis of chaotic behavior in double pendulum
Brázda, Tomáš ; Lošák, Petr (referee) ; Sosna, Petr (advisor)
This thesis deals with the presentation of basic knowledge regarding chaos theory. There are mentioned several basic methods of dimension calculation as well as the overall use of this theory in various scientific disciplines. The main part is devoted to the complete analysis of a double pendulum. To initiate into the issue, this situation was outlined on a simple mathematical basis pendulum. There is derived a numeral system of two differential equations of second order to work with the double pendulum. Thanks to computer program Matlab there was created a fractal that represents chaotic behavior of the double pendulum. Knowledge acquired from dimension calculation was used here to classify the fractal and to work out its dimension. In addition there was analyzed impact of parameters of behavior in system. This overall chaotic behavior has been verified by the largest Lyapunov exponent and the 0–1 test, which identified areas, where this system behaves chaotically and where it is stable.

Fractal Analysis of Track Geometry
Nejezchlebová, Jitka ; Holcner, Petr (referee) ; Svoboda, Richard (advisor)
The master’s thesis deals with the fractal analysis of track geometry. The theoretical part is primarily focused on introducing the basics of fractal geometry. There is also concisely described the current methodology for evaluating track geometry. In the practical part is verified the accuracy of the methods for determining the fractal dimension of the curve. For different curves with the same standard deviation is calculated the fractal dimension to demonstrate the possible advantages of using this analysis. Further is researched the use of the fractal dimension for the analysis of track geometry data. All mathematical procedures are done using the MATLAB system.

L-systems online
Fišer, Marek ; Pelikán, Josef (advisor) ; Mráz, František (referee)
An L-system in its simplest form is a variant of a context-free grammar. Originally, L-systems were developed and are still mainly used for modeling plant growth, though with L-systems it is possible to create general fractals, models of towns or even music. However, anyone interested in L-systems and wanting to experiment with them may have difficulty finding an appropriate application. The goal of this work was to create an online system, suitable for a wide range of users, for working and experimenting with L-systems. The resulting solution consists of two parts. The first part is a universal, easily-expandable library for processing L-sys- tems. Expandability is achieved thanks to its modularity. All input is processed through interconnected components that are specialized in particular activities. The specialization of the components also contributes to the clarity and reliability of the whole processing system. The library is independent and multiplatform and can thus be readily used in other applications. The second part consists of a modern web interface designed to be under- standable for beginners and yet also capable of providing advanced features for more advanced users. Part of the site is a gallery of L-systems to which each user can contribute and which thus helps to create a user-community. The...

A guide to fractal geometry
Hajmová, Kateřina ; Pokorný, Dušan (advisor) ; Boček, Leo (referee)
This text is intended for the general public. The aim of this work is acquaint readers with foundations of the fractal geometry. The thesis explains important terminology, such as the coastline paradox or the fractal dimension. A great emphasis is placed on explaining the concept of the box-counting dimension. The thesis includes the construction methods of the L-systems, IFS, TEA and random fractals. In addition, it shows the use of fractal geometry in practice. The text is completed with illuminating figures drawn in most cases in Geogebra software and Wolfram Mathematica.

Teaching geometric series through CLIL method with using of German language
Korcová, Aneta ; Moravcová, Vlasta (advisor) ; Hromadová, Jana (referee)
The core of the thesis is the realization of three lessons of mathematics conducted in accordance with the CLIL method, which integrates the teaching a non-linguistic subject with foreign language teaching. The topic of the lessons was non-finite geometric series and the chosen foreign language was German. The first part of the thesis introduces key definitions and theorems concerning sequences and geometric series. Comparisons are drawn between approaches of the Czech Republic and two German-speaking countries, Austria and Germany, in relationship to the teaching non-finite geometric series. Furthermore, available teaching materials of the selected countries are compared and applied visualized problems which appear in them are analysed. In the second part, the CLIL teaching method is presented together with the methodology according to which the lessons were prepared, realized and subsequently assessed. To conclude, the thesis presents a detailed analysis of the preparation and progress of the lessons, including the reflection. The appendix comprises of the utilized teaching materials as well as a range of the solved problems.

Selected Fractal Algorithms and Their Use
Michálek, Bedřich ; Španěl, Michal (referee) ; Herout, Adam (advisor)
To read up on the problems of fractal algorithms, to program a simple demo application of this algorithms and propose alternatives of a further study was the goal of my project. Since the subject of fractals and fractal algorithms is very extensive, I concentrated on three specific types of them - the Mandelbrot set and the Julia sets related to it, iterated function systems with application of different algorithms for generating, and the stochastic fractals and their utilization for grass, shrub and plasma modelling. I tried out for a certain rate of their optimalization, acceleration and the comparison of time and memory requirements in my study and application although it is not ever possible due to the characteristic of the given fractal type. I also theoretically present some utilization options of the SSE technology for the acceleration of fractal algorithm calculations. The demo application is proposed in the very easy way because there was not the goal to programme a new carefully worked-out software, but rather to try to implement the read up algorithms. For this reason I focused on the clear implementation of these algorithms to be their utilization easily possible. The application is written in C/C++ language with SDL library used to handle the graphics output.
