Procedural Forest
Pfudl, Václav ; Kobrtek, Jozef (referee) ; Milet, Tomáš (advisor)
The main goal of this bachelor's thesis is to generate procedurally a forest (landscape with plants described in text template). Landscape is generated using Perlin noise and the interpret of L-systems was implemented for plants generation purposes. Both these techniques are described in more detail in theory section as well as the implementation section of this thesis. Furthermore, techniques such as phong lightning model, normal-mapping, shadow-mapping, realistic water, skybox and spriting for better realistic look of the scene, are also discussed in this thesis. Implemented application can also be used for the export of generated plant models in format .obj for further use by some extern application (for example Blender).

Contrast enhancement for tissue discrimination and contrast nanoparticle detection by MRI
Bačovský, Jaromír ; Macíček, Ondřej (referee) ; Starčuk, Zenon (advisor)
Magnetic resonance imaging is a routine and powerful diagnostic technique capable of providing detailed information about the structure and composition of the tissues. This diploma thesis is concerned with the mechanisms of contrast origin and contrast modifications by molecular and nanoparticle contrast agents. First sections of the thesis summarize basic knowledge about pulse sequences and it aims to provide an overview on MRI contrast agent with a special emphasis on paramagnetic gadolinium contrast agents and superparamagnetic nanoparticles. The main purpose of this study is to develop the software called MRICalc, which is able to optimize contrast in MRI images. Based on analysis of signal formula of typical pulse sequences, MRICalc is able to propose the parameters of the pulse sequence for compartment-specific enhancement of the contrast. User chooses from the list of the samples and after calculation he obtains the values of echo time, repetition time and flip angle, all of which simultaneously seem to create the appropriate setting to enhance the contrast. MRICalc also allows to plot contrast function with respect to the chosen parameter. Software, including its graphical user interface, is designed in Python. The sample consists from solution of CuSO4 and distilled water was designed to verify the correct function of MRICalc. Sulphate represents a contrast agent. Preclinical MR system Bruker BioSpec 94/30 USR located at Institute of Scientific Instruments of the ASCR, v.v.i was used to measure contrast curve of FLASH pulse sequence, which is a typical representative of gradient echo. Results of the measurement were compared to the theoretical model provided by MRICalc.

Design Kalina cycle for geothermal power plant and its turbine.
Luermann, Július ; Martinec, Jiří (referee) ; Škorpík, Jiří (advisor)
This master’s thesis analyses Kalina cycle, a power cycle where ammonia – water solution is used as a working fluid. The first part of this study introduces us to the Kalina cycle, presents its advantages and disadvantages, characteristics of the working fluid and its applications. Second section concerns with the method of cycle design and describes the calculation model made in this thesis. The calculation model is attached in a separate .XLSM file. The third part shows calculation of the cycle for given parameters, determination of cycle efficiency and main proportions of the thermal turbine. In the conclusion are the interpretations of the calculations results.

Renovation of sewer network with CIPP methods
Holeš, Petr ; Helcelet, Marek (referee) ; Raclavský, Jaroslav (advisor)
Diploma thesis makes a summary of today’s state of CIPP methods designed for sewer relining. Thesis presents classification of CIPP methods between other NO-DIG technologies. Then CIPP methods are divided into groups according to the material used for the liner, applied resin, installation method and curing method. Designing of the CIPP liner used for sewer renovation is also part of this diploma thesis. The result of the theoretical part of this work is a table, which states suitability of particular methods for use in a sewer of specific technical properties. Practical part of bachelor’s thesis is dealing with the analysis of defects of an existing sewer in the city Přerov. Analysis was done due to the camera examination provided by the company Wombat s.r.o. Later the table developed in theoretical part was applied, and then the suitability of use of all parameters of CIPP liners was commented. At the end the plan of works is designed, with the plan for pumping of water included.

The savings in heating buildings
Rokůsek, Petr ; Hořínková, Lucie (referee) ; Počinková, Marcela (advisor)
This thesis theoretically in Part A deals with the solution in savings heating building and heating hot water. It examines the impact of austerity measures on the overall need for and consumption of heat energy and its economic impact and compared with each other in order to achieve maximum efficiency. Part B is their subsequent application to a given object - a residental building, various design alternatives and the resulting energy savings improvements. Experimental Part C deals with indirect measurement of the thermal conductivity of building materials.

Organic dye decomposition by AOP´s methods
Olexová, Barbora ; Dzik, Petr (referee) ; Kozáková, Zdenka (advisor)
This diploma thesis is focused on the study of the influence of advanced oxidation processes on degradation of organic dyes. The field of AOP – very effective physically-chemical methods of wastewater treatment – includes application of strong oxidation agents, UV and ionizing radiation and electrical discharges. For this thesis, two of these methods were chosen – the application of oxidation agent (ozone) and UV radiation. Along with electrolysis, which is mentioned rather marginally in this thesis (it is the subject of the previous thesis), these phenomena are products of electrical discharge in water, where they participate in the processes of degradation in a different way. For all measurement series, two direct azo dyes were chosen as model substances – C.I. Direct Blue 106 and C.I. Direct Red 79. The ozonizer, in which either oxygen or synthetic or technical air were loaded as carrier gases, was used for degradation of dyes by ozone. The generated ozone was loaded into the bubbling vessel with dye solution of different initial concentration (10–130 mg.dm-3), which was followed by other bubbling vessel with KI solution for the next analytical determination of the amount of generated ozone. The other parameters changed were the gas flow (1–2 dm3.min-1), ozonizer output (minimal and maximal), type of dye, pH value of the solution (neutral or acid) and additional electrolyte (NaCl, Na2SO4 or any). The reactor for the study of the influence of UV radiation on degradation of dyes was an UV sterilizer into which the equivalent volume of dye solution was added. The possibilities of experimental settings were limited and only the type of dye, an additional electrolyte and pH value of the dye solution were adjusted (as in the case of ozone). Several series of samples were measured with various input conditions which more or less influenced the degradation of investigated dyes in this experiment. It was found that for both used methods the Direct Blue 106 dye was more degradable (with significantly better results for ozone than for UV radiation). The degradation of Direct Red 79 dye proceeded only by ozone treatment, in the case of the application of UV radiation no degradation occurred. By investigation of the influence of initial concentration of dye on its degradation, it was confirmed that with the initial concentration enhancement the final concentration rises as well, whereas in low concentrations (10–50 mg.dm-3) the initial concentration has no effect. The addition of an electrolyte had an accelerating effect on dye degradation in both methods (NaCl and also Na2SO4 showed similar results though the degradation proceeded in different ways). The addition of HCl accelerated the degradation only in the case of UV radiation; during the application of ozone the pH level of the system did not have any influence on the degradation. Oxygen and synthetic air had the strongest effect on ozone degradation (comparable results); in the case of technical air the final dye concentration was higher up to 30 %. The gas flow of 1.5 dm3.min-1 was stated as optimal with the ozonizer output 30 W (maximal). At minimal power the ozonizer produced very low amount of ozone.
