Seasonal Variation in Propagation Directions of Acoustic Gravity Waves in the Thermosphere
Fišer, Jiří ; Chum, Jaroslav
We investigate seasonal behaviour of acoustic gravity waves (AGWs) in\nthe thermosphere. For this purpose, measurements of HF Doppler sounding stations\noperated by or in cooperation with our institute are used. These measurements\nare compared with previously reported studies which employed different techniques\nof ionospheric observations. The propagation of AGWs is found to have strong\nseasonal dependence. AGWs in summer generally tend to propagate poleward in\nsummer and equatorward in winter.

Behaviour of meerkats (\kur{Suricata suricatta}) in ZOOs
ŠVOMOVÁ, Tereza
Meerkat (Suricata suricatta) comes under moongooses beasts of prey which can as a dominant individual live up to 11 years and up to 4-5 years as a subordinate. Meercat is an insectivore based in south Africa, mostly forming social groups which may consist of 3 to 50 members. The group itself is usually composed of dominant couple which is commonly responsible for reproduction, and several facilitators which participate in various tasks, such as taking care about whelps, looking for nutrition, lair maintenance or guarding against predators. The work itself was held in Zoo based in Jihlava since July until September 2015 on a group consisting of 9 meercats (4 juvenile, 5 adult) using method of direct observation. The main concern of the paper is to find correlation between a number of visitors of the Zoo and behaviour of meercats. Factors observed in order to assess the degree of the dependence were raking, passive behaviour and reactions to the visitors. Observations resilted in monitoring factors traffic does not affect on the behavior of meerkats.

Study of influence of organic dye structure on their decomposition in the diaphragm discharge in liquids
Pajurková, Jana ; Fasurová, Naděžda (referee) ; Kozáková, Zdenka (advisor)
The main goal of presented thesis is to study the influence of organic dyes structure on its degradation in diaphragm discharge in liquids. Diaphragm discharge is a kind of non-thermal plasma that can be generated in liquids by the application of high voltage. In plasma channels (so-called streamers), many physical and chemical processes are formed. High electrical field, shock waves and last but not least emission of electromagnetic waves in the range of visible and ultra-violet radiation appear among physical processes. The most important chemical process is generation of active species. These species initiate chemical reactions and could attack molecules of organic compounds contained in water solution. The reason why organic dyes were chosen in this study is its visible destruction, because it is related to its decolouration. Further, UV-VIS spectroscopy for the determination of concentration during the experiment can be used. Organic dyes are good models of organic substance often contained in waste water and for which removal classical biological, chemical and physical methods aren’t sufficient. Selected dyes were mostly from the group of azo-dyes: Acid Red 14, Acid Red 18, Acid Yellow 23, Direct Blue 53, Direct Red 79, Direct Red 80, Direct Yellow 29, Food Yellow 3 and further, Acid Blue 74 (indigotic dye) and Direct Blue 106 (oxazine dye). Experiments were carried out in a special batch discharge reactor with the anode and the cathode spaces divided by a non-conductive barrier, where the diaphragm with a pin-hole was placed. Measurement showed different removal in the anode and cathode space. We have supposed it was caused by different streamers features and energetic conditions. Dyes were decomposed with higher efficiency in the anode space where the final concentration reached 40 % of the initial concentration while it remained about 90 % in the cathode space. In this thesis the influence of dyes structure on the dye decomposition by electrical discharge was investigated. Dyes consisted of small molecules and dyes with many substitutes bounded on aromatic ring were decomposed more easily than dyes consisted of big molecules. The shift of characteristic wavelength on both directions (to shorter as well as longer wavelength) was observed during the experiments especially when the Direct dyes were decomposed. This phenomenon was probably due to the formation of intermediate product, which have different characteristic wavelength than the primary compound. In general, colourfulness is given by long conjugated systems of double bonds with substitutes bounded on an aromatic ring. Each change in the molecule structure provides the colour change and this could be the possible reason of the shift of characteristic wavelength. The other task was the comparison of degradation process efficiency by the mean of electrolysis and diaphragm discharge. Results showed that electrolysis (30 W) was more convenient for degradation of dyes consisted of small molecules while diaphragm discharge (130170 W) suited for complex molecules. For degradation of small molecules, oxidation on the anode assumed to be the most effective process that is initiated by electrolysis. For degradation of big molecules, attack of active species produced by the discharge is necessary.

DRAMATURG AS A CO-CREATOR OF THE PRODUCTION
Machačíková, Markéta ; Kudláčková, Jana (advisor) ; Sílová, Zuzana (referee)
This work is focused mainly on the position of dramaturg in the staging process of a play, his/her creative potential and influence to the result of the production. In the introductory chapter the author suggests a historical and theoretical background of dramaturgy and describes different dramaturgical functions that a dramaturg can possibly perform during the staging process. Also she describes basic principles of a dramaturgical method called ?structural dramaturgy?. The second chapter concentrates on the school theatre DISK, finding scripts for the class repertory and decisions that were made. The practical preparation of the script and the creation of the ?dramaturgical-directional conception? on examples of three different productions are discussed in the third chapter. Based on her work with three different directors of her class, the author offers a description of their work during the rehearsals with actors and tries to point out to their different directing style and approach in the fourth chapter. The fith chapter is focused on the result of the productions and performances and its audience and critical reception. The last chapter is dedicated to projects in progress that the author is involved in as a translator and a dramaturg

Sakrality and Theatrality on the Pilgrimage and in the Funfair
Štolcpartová, Kateřina ; Žižka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Kalfus, Pavel (referee)
The theme of diploma work specialises in forms of self-wandering pointing to theatre, interconnecting design-social-drama field of authorial creative work. The first chapter focuses on an issue of pilgrimage, wandering and folk fair, its religious and social-dramatic aspects. Wandering as an individual and collective need, sign of sacrality and teatrality. Consequently deals with self project Rimo-crossword in specific sacral landscape. Periodical group meetings fuses themselves temporary site-specific, environmental and self-pointing tendencies in the basic of deeper knowledge of landscape and its historical context. This project analyzes possibilities of the relationship: crossway-landscape-roots-earth-body-art. Describes methods of creating in landscape, measure of communication and participation in local habit activities, also beginning of the co-operation with group of poets.
Second project is an authorial puppet performance Emotive Song about one Hermit, dedicated to life and work of czech artist, solitaire and wanderer Josef Váchal. It pushes ahead the complex dramaturgic and stage design treatment of the theme, also the role of directing stage designer. Finally, resume outlines views of enthroned poetics in the future continuity.

Neurolinguistic Approach to Interpreting Research in Italy (SSLMIT Trieste): Beginning and Recent Trends
Kadová, Alžběta ; Čeňková, Ivana (advisor) ; Sládková, Miroslava (referee)
An important field of interpreting research, neurolinguistic approach emerged soon after the shift towards an interdisciplinary approach to research into interpreting. The mutually beneficial collaboration between neurolinguists and interpreters has been centred mainly on the issue of language representation in interpreters as bilingual subjects, namely on the role each of the two cerebral hemispheres plays depending on the task (automatic speech production, shadowing, translation of single words or phrases, simultaneous interpreting), choice of interpreting strategy (literal vs. meaning-based interpretation) or on the direction of interpreting (B to A vs. A to B language). The thesis focuses on the research into hemispheric lateralization done at SSLMIT, University of Trieste, Italy - the place where, in the 80s, the neurolinguistic approach was first adopted. The Trieste School then remained its centre for approximately ten years. The beginning chapters of this theoretical study present the fundamentals of neuranatomy, neurophysiology and neurolinguistics, necessary for understanding of the mental processes underlying simultaneous interpretation. Furthermore, relevant neuroimaging methods are introduced that either have already been used in or could be applied to interpreting research in the...

Acting in theater and in front of camera
Jansová, Eliška ; PLEŠTILOVÁ, Miroslava (advisor) ; PAVELKA, Tomáš (referee)
This thesis is about acting in theater or in front of camera.
At the beginning it is focused to these directions individually and later summarizes their differences, which include: what function the audience has; what options of movement the performer has; what style direction the actor uses; what the difference of collaborations between actors on the stage or in front of the camera have.It talks about the different approach of directors and self-expressions of actors and analyzes the different effects that each actor during their performance. It doesn’t only talk about the differences, but also includes the inter-connections of both styles.
The next part is focused on creating a character and comparison of current and passed actors that were acting in theater as well as in movies.
The conclusion is about my personal acting experience in film and in theater. It evaluates my work at the school theater DISK and also asses the transition to my advanced work.
