Development of insulation materials from secondary texile fibers
Mlynářová, Jana ; Třísko, Pavel (referee) ; Zach, Jiří (advisor)
This thesis is focused on opportunities for innovation of thermal insulation materials for use in construction. Textile waste, either from waste collection or textile industry is difficult to recycle and a substantial amount of said waste ends up at waste dumps or waste incinerators. The thesis is focused on available sources of raw material for textile fibers and suitable technologies for processing of recycled textile into the form of thermal insulation panels. The practical section of the thesis is focused on possible alterations of key properties of thermal insulation mats made of recycled textile fibers so that said insulation mats can be incorporated into building constructions.

A Stranger of the House - the Crossroads III
Mlynářová, J. ; Kilani, M. ; Alivernini, Sergio
The Crossroads III – A Stranger in the House. Foreigners in Ancient Egyptian and Near Eastern Societies of the Bronze Age conference has been held at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University (Prague) between September 10 and 13, 2018. The main objective of the conference was to enhance our understanding of “foreignness” in ancient societies between the end of the Chalcolithic period and the end of the Late Bronze Age. This book collects some of the twenty most significant contributions presented at the conference. Some authors decided to approach the discussion from a theoretical perspective, or to present and discuss theoretical frameworks that could be used to explore at least some elements underlying the concept of “foreignness”. Others investigated sociocultural dimension involved in the presence of foreigners, or in their interactions with local communities. Cases from Egypt, Mesopotamia, Anatolia, and the Levant, covering the whole of the Bronze Age have been discussed. The wide range of perspectives, and their combination within the frame of the conference often stimulated that multidisciplinary dialogue that was the primary aim of this third edition of Crossroads
