Electronically Controlled Anti-roll Bar
Drozd, David ; Vančura, Jan (referee) ; Blaťák, Ondřej (advisor)
The topic of this master’s thesis is electronically controlled anti-roll bar. The first part describes the effect of body roll and anti-roll bars on vehicle characteristics, as well as an overview of currently used systems for active stabilization. The second part analyzes simulations of various driving scenarios in a multibody software in order to evaluate the effect of anti-roll bars with various stiffness on driving characteristics of vehicles. The numerical data obtained from simulations are applied in later part of the thesis. The design concept of an active stabilization system is explained in the third part. In the last part, the effect of key parameters on the performance of the system is determined.

Hry Václava Havla v zemích balkánského regionu
Xhelo, Katerina ; Stehlíková, Eva (advisor) ; Chrobák, Tomáš (referee) ; Drozd, David (referee)
The Doctoral Dissertation focuses on productions of Václav Havel's plays in some of the Balkan countries, namely Albania, Kosovo, Serbia, Bulgaria, and Macedonia before 1989 and from 1989 until today; it also focuses on the roots of popularity of Havel's plays in those countries. By analyzing theatre situation in the above-mentioned countries, analyzing performances and translations of the plays I have found that the performances of Havel's plays brought new ideas and forms of expression into the theatre and they especially offered to actors new ways to explore their own forms of acting. I have found different reviews, materials, and literatures which show that Havel's plays led to a lot of polemics. I have made use of all possible sources for my work (libraries, archives, written materials, interviews with directors, film documents, video documents etc). Based on these sources I have found that the performances of Havel's plays in some of the countries were staged in form of a political theatre, and in pursuit of a certain political message. Searching through the materials we understand that directors went to the deeper meaning of Havel's plays and in most cases the plays were staged with an intention and desire to influence the society. In the dissertation I have proved shown that a new stage language was...

Contemporary Cirkus as a Dramatic Art. From Contemporary Cirsuc Performance Analysis to is Aesthetic Discourse
Štefanová, Veronika ; Christov, Petr (advisor) ; Drozd, David (referee) ; Pšenička, Martin (referee)
This dissertation introduces contemporary circus as a type of dramatic art. The work thus provides a basic framework for the analysis of contemporary circus and suggests a terminology for the designation of its specific traits. This terminology is derived first and foremost from the Czech theatre studies environment. The theoretical delineation of contemporary circus stems from selected theses from Otakar Zich's The Aesthetics of Dramatic Art and Erika Fischer-Lichte's The Transformative Power of Performance: A New Aesthetics. Contemporary circus, which is depicted as belonging to several discourses - historical, aesthetic, cultural policy and pedagogical, is described from a formal as well as content-focused point of view in order to best point out how the circus element changes and takes on meaning in relation to its theatrical counterpart. The thesis is subdivided into five parts. The introduction outlines the key theme, goals and methodology as well as terminology and theories which provide the work with a suitable point of departure. The Contemporary and Traditional Circus chapter describes the history and development of traditional as well as contemporary circus in selected countries (France, Canada, USA, Scandinavia) which are considered significant within the context of circus arts...

Součková, Kateřina ; ETLÍK, Jaroslav (advisor) ; DROZD, David (referee)
Bachelor thesis Dramatic text as an ideological direction deals with an impulses, which can offer a dramatic text to a dramatic piece without endanger an autonomy neither of them. In order to find the ideological direction, it uses an explication as a "technological reading" of dramatic text, which is trying to discover its own motif-thematic structure without interpreted it. It analyses a charakter and a function of components of dramatic text, their mutual relation and their relation with a dramatic piece. This theoretic basis is being examinated by the explication of The Cherry Orchard by A. P. Chekhov. The motifs and the themes of this drama are confronted with the production of The Cherry Orchard at Theatre on the Balustrade in Prague. On grounds of this comparison it tries to find out, how much is connected the relation of their basic themes with the relation between a dramatic text and a dramatic piece in general.
