The Merger of Třeboň Municipal Spas - An Assess
BLAŽKOVÁ, Eva
The aim of this bachelor thesis is an evaluation of a fusion of the Municipal Spa Třeboň Ltd. The thesis is divided into a theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is focused on an introduction of the issue, the characteristics and aims of a project of restructulisation of the fused spa companies. This part defines the theoretic-methodological outcomes necessary for processing the practical part. Furthermore, the town of Třeboň is described as well as the historical facts about a development of balneology in Třeboň that confirm technological justification and thus also prospects of balneology there. There is also an outline of the newly established Slatinné lázně Třeboň (Peat Spa Třeboň Company Ltd.), providing balneological services, spa capacity and economic situation of the Spa before and after the fusion. The practical part is based on a secondary data analysis, where the data are from 2014-2016 and from 2017 which is after the fusion, aimed at the spa results numbers of clients, their structure according to obtained services as well as an average length of their stay. Furthermore, the economic data describing the company results which are taken from accessible sources and straight from the Peat Spa Třeboň Company Ltd. For a fusion evaluation, also a quantitative and qualitative research was implemented, aimed at obtaining an insight into a social reality through the questionnaire research. Also the data obtained from a client feedback system "AskNow" gathered by the company were used. The following part of the thesis is based on a statistic confirmation of the real capacity and especially of economic development while adhering to a general progress of technical and medical standards that confirm the processed data by SWOT analysis. The bachelor thesis attempts to back the justification of the fusion also from the point of view of the Czech Medical Balneology which is based on a necessity of more financial sources than those provided by the state medical care. This necessity of financial support is available for a subject strong in economy and capacity. The Peat Spa Třeboň Ltd. has become such a subject after the implemented fusion, with a perspective of further development and gaining a strong position from the point of view of general technological and economic activities among the leading spa institutions in the Czech Republic, based on the patients´ interest in the procedures and services of the Municipal Spa Třeboň.

Preliminary Measurements of Neutrons From The D-D Reaction in The Compass Tokamak
Dankowski, J. ; Janky, Filip ; Kurowski, A. ; Stöckel, Jan ; Twarog, D.
Recent results of measured fast neutrons created in the D-D reaction on the COMPASS tokamak during ohmic discharges are presented in this paper. Two different type detectors were used during experiment. He-3 detectors and bubble detectors as a support. The measurements are an introduction for neutron diagnostic on tokamak COMPASS and monitoring neutrons during discharges with Neutral Beam Injection (NBI). The He-3 counters and bubble detectors were located in two positions near tokamak vacuum chamber at a distance less than 40 cm to the centre of plasma. The neutrons flux was observed in ohmic discharges. However, analysis of our results does not indicate any clear source of neutrons production during ohmic discharges.

Rozložení tepelných toků na stěnu tokamaku způsobených okrajovými nestabilitami
Kripner, Lukáš ; Cahyna, Pavel (advisor) ; Urban, Jakub (referee)
Edge localized modes (ELMs) are a concern for future magnetic fusion devices, such as ITER, due to the large transient heat loads they generate on the plasma facing components. A very promising method of ELM suppression is an application of resonant magnetic perturbations (RMP); however, such application leads to localized places of higher heat fluxes called footprints. Both ELMs and RMP could limit the operational lifetime of the device. In this thesis, we analyze the temporal and spatial distribution of footprints using the tangle distance method in the aim to prevent a transient overheating. We also analyze quasi-double-null configuration of the ITER plasma which can be expected to be the most susceptible to overheating of the upper wall. Based on the modelling, the potentially dangerous configurations of the RMP have been shown. Using the ELM filament model included in the LOCUST GPU code, we study temporal and spatial distribution of the heat fluxes caused by ELMs in the axially symmetric and the asymmetric magnetic field. The results are compared with published experimental observations. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Thomson Scattering Diagnostic on COMPASS Tokamak
Aftanas, Milan ; Stöckel, Jan (advisor) ; Mlynář, Jan (referee) ; Wild, Jan (referee)
Thorough study of plasma behaviour in magnetically confined fusion devices is of great importance in recent research. Diagnostics capable to reliably provide important parameters of the hot plasma are key tool in the effort to control fusion energy on Earth. Thomson Scattering diagnostic has a credit of being a complex design diagnostic with reliable measurement of electron temperature and density profiles. The main subjects of this thesis are design of the Thomson Scattering system for the COMPASS tokamak, analysis of output data errors and exploitation of the data to study plasma behaviour. Besides this work, the author has been involved in the design of Thomson Scattering systems for the ITER tokamak and this design is presented here as well. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Interaction of retroviral env glycoproteins with receptors and virus entry into the cell
Přikryl, David ; Pečenka, Vladimír (advisor) ; Horníková, Lenka (referee)
Humankind has adjusted many animals, plants and bacteria to serve their needs. Now the time has come to exploit also viruses. The most significant applications for them seem to lie in the sphere of human health. Particularly the family of retroviruses represent a perfekt vectors for gene delivery to cure genetic diseases or to destroy undesirable, e.g. cancer cells. In order to efficiently use these vehicles, a series of problems must be overcome and some segments of retroviral life cycle must be more deeply explored. This work describes some of them along with possible ways to solve them. The first described area is nonspecific adsorption of virions on the cell surface, the second is securing effective interaction between envelope glycoproteins and receptors highly specific for the targeted cell type and finally driven fusion of membranes. Key words: retrovirus, adsorption, env, receptor, phusion

The optimization of melting as a decomposition process for material analysis.
Ptáček, Martin ; Koplík, Jan (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
Fusion is the process in which the sample particles are dissolved in the flux. This is used for the decomposition of substances which under normal conditions do not decompose in acid. For example, silicon, which is a substantial part of cement, is not degraded under standard conditions, so it is fused. Fusion may be in solution or in a pearl. Solution fusing is used for ICP-OES rather than XRF pearls. In addition to the pearl, XRF can also be measured in powder, but it is less accurate. This bachelor thesis deals with decomposition of standards and comparison of measured values with certified values. In the course of the work, samples of the standards were decomposed using several types of fluxes, measured at ICP-OES. The same standards were measured using XRF in the form of pearls. In addition to these two methods, elemental analysis of sulfur content was also performed. These methods were finally compared. From the measured data we can say that the best results are achieved with the ICP-OES method.

The road to the inception of the party DIE LINKE - the development between the years 2004 and 2009
Kynclová, Jiřina ; Kunštát, Miroslav (advisor) ; Picka, Ondřej (referee)
The bachelor thesis "The road to the inception of the party DIE LINKE - the development between the years 2004 and 2009" deals with the inception of the German political party DIE LINKE, which was formed from the Party of the Democratic Socialism (PDS) and The Electoral Alternative - Labor & Social Justice (WASG). The thesis is anchored between the years 2004 and 2009. In some cases it goes back to the time between 1990 and 2004. In the beginning of the thesis both founding parties are introduced along with their development up to the year 2004. It continues to show, what made the fusion possible and how the parties started to move closer to one another. The thesis also deals with the programmatic differences between the PDS and the WASG. The focal point of is an analysis of the electoral results of the parties, which is aimed to prove whether or not the fusion brought more voters to the PDS and the WASG. The results of the elections to the Federal and Land Diets between the years 1990 and 2009 have been analysed based on secondary literature and statistics. Lastly, the thesis also aims to show how was the inception of DIE LINKE reflected in some of the daily newspapers of the Czech Republic (Mladá fronta DNES, Hospodářské noviny, Lidové noviny, Právo and Haló noviny) not only as far as frequency but also...

The role of mitochondria in cardioprotective effect induced by hypoxia in rat
Lomnický, Matouš ; Žurmanová, Jitka (advisor) ; Hlaváčková, Markéta (referee)
Aerobic organisms need sufficient oxygen supply to maintain homeostasis. These organisms are frequently exposed in hypoxic environments naturally, and also occur in hypoxic states in various pathological conditions. Cardioprotective effect of hypoxia had been recognised more than 30 years ago; and later on, cardioprotective effects of ischemic preconditioning were discovered. Long term exposure to hypobaric hypoxia activates cardioprotective mechanisms, which lower the aftermathes of short term ischemia of myocardia and the effects of further health complications. The core of protective mechanisms has not yet been fully clarified. This work deals with the significance of mitochondria on cardioprotection during hypobaric hypoxia adaptation. This work describes physiological adaptive processes on selected animals on natural hypoxic conditions and also molecular mechanisms, examined on experimental models. Molecular mechanisms of the origins of cardioprotective effects discovered so far, mainly indicate PKC signal pathways through thyrosine kinase and mitogenes of activated kinase and also indicate an activation of sarcKATP-channels and mitoKATP-channels. Opening of these channels can protect mitochondria against a Ca2+ overload, or can lead to an increase in mitochondrial capacity which is possibly connected...
