QUESTIONS OF SAFETY IN THE INSTITUTIONS INTENDED FOR WATER HOLIDAY ACTIVITIES
KADLECOVÁ, Jana
``Water-related injuries{\crqq} are the second most frequent cause of death of children in the Czech Republic. My thesis addresses the issue of safety in facilities designed for aquatic leisure activities. Within the scope of the qualitative research with the aim to analyze technical standards, to ascertain their observance and afterwards to analyze the injury risks I used the data collection technique consisting in secondary data analysis, observation in combination with photographic documentation and semi-standardized interviews. For the research I selected a swimming pool in České Budějovice and Aquaviva Wellness Centre in Aurora Třeboň spa. The reason for this selection was creation of a pilot study monitoring safety in these facilities in South Bohemia. The Czech Republic has technical standards in place that are applied to minimize the risk of injury to the largest possible extent in facilities like that. They determine the procedures that have to be observed during construction and subsequent operation of facilities designed for aquatic leisure activities. The provisions defined by the standards are observed in both facilities but in their substance they are so generalized that it is only at the operators{\crq} discretion to what extent the safety is to be secured by them. They should be more specified and applied concretely to individual units of the equipment in order to create a safe environment. As far as risk places in the facilities are concerned, it may be stated that, regardless of compliance with the requirements defined by the standard, there is a large number of risks related in particular with slippery surfaces. Within the scope of the safety evaluation, it is also necessary to take account of hazardous behaviour of users of the chutes. The results of the research indicate that in Aquaviva Wellness Centre in Třeboň safety is secured and complies with the requirements of technical standards and the prevention requirements; the swimming pool in České Budějovice shows more serious defects {--} the standards are complied with but the surfaces are not covered with materials that would secure safety. On the basis of my research and other technical studies that confirmed seriousness of water-related injuries it is obvious that the issue of injuries in this field will require modification of safety measures and more precise specification of standards and thus elements such as materials of surfaces that would secure the required safety.

Transfer of dangerous substances in connection with safety at road traffic
SANDOROVÁ, Radka
The carriage of dangerous goods by road abides mainly by the European Agreement concerning the international carriage of dangerous goods by road `ADR{\crq}. The agreement was accepted by advanced countries in 1957 and The Czechoslovak Socialist Republic joined it in 1986, the Czech Republic became the full-fledged member on 1st January 1993 as a succesor of the former Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. Despite the fact that the development of industry has brought many products that we cannot imagine the existence of the modern society without, on the other hand, the integral part of them is production of dangerous goods, which brings a danger associated with their manufacture, storage, usage and transportation. On this account it is necessary to use all means to decrease potential hazards of a rise of accidents of vehicles transporting dangerous goods, which brings the biggest hazards to people{\crq}s health, their possession and ecological environment. As statistics show, one of the main agents of a rise of accidents is human failure. Even the most perfect regulations cannot avoid these or other hazards that menace whilst carrying dangerous goods. Though my effort was to refer to essential and the most important parts of the ADR agreement concerning the carriage of dangerous goods, to highlight the importance of exercising control over observing the regulations. Moreover, I wanted to point to the direct dependence of successful managing of solving uncommon situations on cooperation and instantiation of powers of all components of Integrated emergency system, and at the same time through a particular example from practice to mention the need of actualization of individual type plans and subsequent presentation of newly used methods and observations from solving crises situations and with them connected introduction of new ways of preparation for their solutions.

Accident frequency and its social effects
VLÁSEK, Vladislav
The thesis ``Accident frequency and its social effects{\crqq} focuses on traffic accidents caused by trespassing the law of speed limit and on social effects induced by accident frequency. Every year approximately one thousand people die on the Czech roads, other thousands of traffic accident victims face lifelong injury consequences. Apart from direct loss of lives, health and property, the traffic accidents carry a lot of other hardly denumerable costs starting at financing trip of ambulance, continuing with health care service expenses followed by convalescence, eventually social benefits for disabled and impacts on relatives of traffic accident victims. The aim of this work is to map the situation of serious traffic accidents where participants are seriously injured, or die and to infer the most serious social effects of these traffic accidents. To gather information in order to meet the objective of this hypothesis and to prove it a quantity research has been carried out. Secondary analysis of data from the records of Police of Czech Republic and the Ministry of the Interior has been chosen as a method to help verify the correctness of presumed hypothesis. In order to map the most serious social impacts, dialogs with randomly selected traffic accident participants who suffered lifelong consequences of their injuries were performed. The primary file contains participants of traffic accidents that happened in the Czech Republic and are registered in the registry of Police of Czech Republic in the period 2003-2006 and where the participants died, were seriously or lightly injured. Our hypothesis proven, that the most serious consequences of traffic accidents happen due to exceeding the speed limits . Also the most serious social impacts of traffic accidents were mapped.

Assessment of Pressure Vessels Safety
Macurová, K. ; Tichý, R. ; Strnadel, B. ; Dlouhý, Ivo
Conditions of pressure vessels breach are investigated in the present paper. Safety of the modified criteria application of Leak Before Break when a residual stress is found in the vessel material is analysed. Design criterion is based on a critical crack length which must be less than the thickness of the vessel wall. Superposition of residual stress, which occurs in the production of a vessel by impact extrusion, and the hoop stress caused by the internal pressure significantly affects the life and conditions of technical use. Size and character of the distribution of residual stresses were determined experimentally by use of the hole-drilling method. The numerical simulation and mathematical calculations have been carried out applying ANSYS and MATLAB software. The main attention was focused on the application of residual stress in the numerical analysis based on values obtained by the experimental measurements by hole–drilling method.
