Population and geographic variation in long-winged bats (Miniopterus) in the western Palaearctic
Šrámek, Jan ; Benda, Petr (advisor) ; Hanák, Vladimír (referee)
In this study the sexual and geographical variations in the genus Miniopterus were deeply investigated, using multidisciplinary analysis (morphometric cranial, dental, fenetic and shape analysis; molecular analysis of mt gene ND2). Different populations from western Palearctic and adjacent regions were analysed: Miniopterus schreibersii (Morocco, West Europe, Pannonia, Balkans, Crete, Near East, Middle East), Miniopterus natalensis (Yemen, Ethiopia) a Miniopterus inflatus (Ethiopia). Extensove samples of Miniopterus schreibersii were tested and existence of sexual dimorphism in cranial constitution was showed: males had generally bigger and relatively higher, shorter and narrower skulls than females; female mandibles were generally bigger than the male ones, females showed also more robust and larger teeth than males. On the other hand, males had markedly bigger canines and relatively higher P4 (in relation to other premolares). The sexes also deiffered in shape of P4 and upper molars. According to the interpopulation variation found, Miniopterus schreibersii samples from West Europe, Pannonia, Balkans, Crete, Sicily, Georgia, coastal Turkish and Moroccan areas belong most probably to the subspecies M. s. schreibersii (Kuhl, 1817). The samples from Afganistan, Iran, Azerbaijan, and from localities...

Measurement of pitch diameter to length measuring instrument SIP CMI Brno
Malásek, Michal ; Jankových, Róbert (referee) ; Šrámek, Jan (advisor)
This thesis deals with methods for inspection of internal and external threads. One of the aims of the thesis is to give reader insight into the given topic, another one is to improve and simplify process of the thread gauge check at the Czech Metrology Institute (CMI). A database of the thread gauges that are not automatically recognizable by the software used at the CMI will be created. Such thread gauges are still used in practice, but are marked according to the old standards ČSN.

Šrámek, Jan ; Horáček, Radek (referee) ; Sylvestrová, Marta (referee) ; Pospiszyl, Tomáš (referee) ; Stratil, Václav (advisor)
A doctoral thesis “Czechoslovakian modernist illustration of the 1950s and 1960s and its influences in the contemporary Czech visual culture” is focused on how a modernist illustration of the 1950s and 1960s influences Czech contemporary authors, especially illustrators. We can witness a particularly strong influence of the above mentioned modernist illustration and visual culture of that period in general among producers employing digital tools and vector graphics served. The thesis contains a historical study which follows developments of the visual language of graphic arts (illustration in particular) in the 1950s and 1960s in relation to fine arts. There is a special focus on a position of the 1960s’ modernist illustration within the applied arts of the period. Biographical study dedicated to illustrator M. Šašek introduce key figure of the (late) modernist period.

Cluster World
Delong, Marek ; Artamonov, Vasil (referee) ; Šrámek, Jan (advisor)
In my thesis I focus mainly on omnipresence of the internet and technology. Additionally on colapse of physical environment in online culture and infinite reproduction ability and transformability of digital matter. However, I’m also concerned about their feedback application into exhibition areas. The thesis deals with change of authorship – after an art piece gets documented, it becomes a circulating material. Authorship of an artwork is almost impossible to track down, same as the initial context. Artistic outcome switches from auratic object into a file which is a subject to the network architecture. In the last two decades the relationship between image, text, language, meaning, body, space, subject and object changed radically. The task is no longer to create unique and original art but to observe existing supplies of images and spaces as de-subjectivized.

Re Vision
Švehla, Jakub ; Šrámek, Jan (referee) ; Kögler, Žaneta (advisor)
In form of 3D animation the thesis depicts the steps of mankind towards the expansion of civilization beyond planet Earth. Chronologically it exposes essential moments of technological development (in major) preceding the journey for the distant planets. Images of today's state of civilization are combined with constructions of former theoretical concepts and with fully fictitious elements to form visuals illustrating the roadmap to extraterrestrial expansion.
