Ekonomické a ekologické aspekty elektromobility
Otáhalová, Barbora
The bachelor thesis deals with the dependencies of economic and ecological factors in the field of electromobility in European countries for the year 2021. The literature review characterizes electromobility, briefly describes its development, current status, as well as advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, a comparison of certain factors between European countries is presented in this chapter. The theory of regression analysis and the stages of econometric modelling are also included in this study. The practical part includes creating and testing two econometric models. The results show that there is a positive dependence between GDP, the number of charging stations and the number of newly registered electromo-biles. Another sub-result is the confirmed dependence of newly registered EVs on the reduction of CO2 emissions.

The correlation between the automotive industry output cycle and the business cycle in the Czech Republic
Yin, Shiqi ; Jeřábek, Petr (advisor) ; Merrino, Serena (referee) ; Čech, František (referee)
This paper aims to investigate the correlation between the output cycle and the business cycle of the Czech Republic's core industry, the automotive industry. The paper begins by analysing the volatility of each variable, and finds that the trends of the automotive industry output cycle and the business cycle align, while the automotive industry output cycle keeps lagging behind the business cycle. Secondly, this paper adopts the VAR model to examine the relationship between the Czech automotive output and its macroeconomic indicators, using the real GDP and the Gross Value added (GVA) to represent the macroeconomic situation. The results show that there is a correlation between Czech automotive industry output and the macroeconomy, but the correlation is asymmetric, which means the automotive industry is more sensitive to macroeconomic shocks but has weaker impact on the macroeconomy. Finally, this paper also measures the correlation between the automotive industry and monetary policy (M2) and finds that the monetary policy shows strong stability and independence, which can affect the progress of the automotive industry, but no reverse effect has been observed.

Additive technologies in the automotive industry
Beneš, Petr ; Kučera, Pavel (referee) ; Píštěk, Václav (advisor)
The deals of this bachelor's thesis are individual technologies of additive manufacturing and their use in the field of automotive production and development of automotive parts. As part of the work, five specific additive manufacturing methods with the greatest benefit to the automotive industry were selected. The technological procedures were described and characterized their essence, possibilities, pros and cons. The following is a detailed description of how the mentioned technologies are currently used in automotive production. The description is supplemented with examples of specific parts and projects where additive manufacturing was used. In conclusion, the possible future direction of the development of additive technologies is evaluated with the aim of expanding their use in automobile production. The thesis gains information mainly from foreign internet portals publishing articles in the field of the automotive industry or production technologies. The websites of 3D printer manufacturers and companies involved in the commercial use of additive manufacturing were also a quality source of information.

Design of a SAR AD converter with switched capacitors
Sysel, Jan ; Kledrowetz, Vilém (referee) ; Prokop, Roman (advisor)
This work deals with the design of analog to digital converter with a successive approximation register for automotive industry with the range of operating temperatures from -40 °C to 175 °C and with the use of DAC with switched capacitors between interconnect metal tracks in an integrated circuit to minimize converter area. Theoretical part deals with the basic theory of analog to digital converters, principle of converter with a successive approximation register with the utilization of capacitive DAC. Then with the design of capacitors for the DAC in an integrated circuit made of metal layers and vias and their layout to minimize parasitic capacities. In the practical part is made the theoretical design of the converter on block level. Then is done the design of a capacitor for this DAC and layout of the whole DAC is made. On the transistor level are designed and verified blocks required for realization of this converter: circuit of voltage follower, operational amplifier, comparator and switches. Inside the converter the self-test circuit is implemented for measurement of its own nonlinearity. In the work the functionality of the converter is verified as a whole.

Principles of the circular economy in the automotive industry
KOLÁŘ, Petr
This thesis deals with the issue of circular economy and the automotive industry. The main aim of the thesis is to evaluate the levels of circular economy principles in the automotive industry based on the analysis carried out. The sub-objective of the thesis is a proposal to improve the current situation. The aim is to find out what level of acceptance of the circular economy in the automotive industry the Czech Republic achieves in comparison with other European Union countries and how it could improve this level. Furthermore, the thesis analyses what is the development and to what extent the renewal of the automotive fleet in the Czech Republic is going on. Due to the availability of data, the time period from 2009/2010 to 2021/2022 is examined. The principle of use of the circular material rate in the automotive industry and the principle of fleet renewal are analysed. Finally, for both principles, a proposal for improving the current situation is given. The resulting resulting calculated data and suggestions for improvement provide an opportunity for future predictions. These can be useful, for example, for those in the automotive industry who are considering the future direction of the company. A positive finding of the thesis is that the Czech Republic has made a significant advance in the rate of circular material use in the automotive industry over the period studied, and a positive trend can be seen for future years. On the other hand, there are still considerable reserves in the renewal of the automotive fleet and much room for improvement.

The Automotive Industry and Its Influence on the Economic Situation in the Selected Region
KOLÁŘ, Petr
This thesis deals with the automotive industry and its impact on the economic situation in the South Bohemian Region. The aim is to analyse and evaluate selected indicators and their influence on the selected indicators of the number of employees in the region in the monitored period. The surveyed indicators include unemployment, number of employees outside the automotive industry, average gross wage, number of enterprises and sales per employee in the automotive industry in the South Bohemian Region. The main factors and dependencies are evaluated using econometric and statistical methods.

Global Production Networks and Labour: Trade Unions in the Automotive Industry of Czechia and Slovakia
Martišková, Monika ; Pavlínek, Petr (advisor) ; Galgoczi, Béla (referee) ; Myant, Martin (referee)
This doctoral thesis focuses on the role of labour in global production networks using the example of the automotive industry in Czechia and Slovakia. Drawing on the agent-based approach, I combine the conceptual framework of global production networks with the trade unions' power resources concept to understand the mechanisms which allow labour to improve working conditions within the integrated periphery of global automotive industry production networks. I base my evidence on qualitative interviews with trade unions' representatives operating at final assembly firms and suppliers, and I complement them with other respondents, such as company managers, sector level and regional level labour union representatives. I conclude that trade unions in the integrated periphery are structurally weak, which poses challenges for future industry development in terms of employment impacts related to decarbonization strategies and the ongoing digitalization of production. The doctoral thesis is composed of four publications where I study trade union strategies and responses related to upcoming changes in the automotive industry. KEY WORDS Automotive industry, trade unions, labour, global production networks, Czechia, Slovakia
