Optimisation of pressure condition in water supply systems
Sucháček, Tomáš ; Svoboda,, Miroslav (referee) ; Pollert, Jaroslav (referee) ; Tuhovčák, Ladislav (advisor)
This thesis is focused on the optimization of pressure conditions in the water supply network. There is a deep theoretical and critical search of the state of the art and there are fields where there is an insufficient field of knowledge, the so-called "knowledge gap". Experiments are proposed here to determine the dependence of water consumption on pressure conditions. There is a description of experiments and way how it was carried out, which were carried out on the water connection, in the pressure zone and in the laboratory on the hydraulic loop. There is proposed a methodology of experimental determination of the mathematical dependence of water consumption on pressure so that it can be used for optimization problems, where consumption is considered as an optimization criterion. The results of individual experiments are evaluated and a critical discussion of the achieved results is carried out. Finally, the achieved results are compared with the values found in a deep literature search.

Visual processing of the topic Puppet theatre by people with substance abuse
JANDOVÁ, Zuzana Vlasta
The bachelor´s thesis focuses on the artistic rendering of the art therapy theme Puppet Theatre by people with substance use disorder who are being treated in a therapeutic community. While presenting the topic of the Puppet Theatre, the work aims to provide support for the interpretation of the Puppet Theatre theme within the projective-intervention approach in art therapy. It deals with the topics of addiction and puppet theatre, which then leads to a sub-chapter dealing with puppet theatre from the perspective of art therapy. The addiction is analyzed from the point of view of its definition, forms or causes. We mention in particular the types of drugs, their impact and the treatment of addiction in the Czech Republic with regard to therapeutic communities, while the role of art therapy in treatment is introduced as well. The section about puppet theatre discusses theatre and puppets origins and purpose including their construction types. All of the aforementioned forms the basis for the Puppet Theatre in the intentions of projective-interventional art therapy, documents it by the artefacts obtained during the research investigation and analyses in to define features recurring in the work of people with addiction.

France's Influence on Its Former Colonies: A Case Study of Morocco and Algeria
Celerová, Adéla ; Kučerová, Irah (advisor) ; Plechanovová, Běla (referee)
This diploma thesis examines the topic of France's influence on its former colonies. Using the example of Algeria and Morocco, analyzes what influence France has on its former colonies at the present time, whether the influence persists, and whether this relationship can be characterized as a form of neocolonialism. Using the analysis of the relationship of the two selected countries with France, and the subsequent analysis of cooperation in four selected areas, the work examines and compares whether the possible influence of the former colonizer on the selected countries is the same, or whether it is different (eventually what are the reasons for the asymmetry of the ongoing relations in favor of one of the countries). The work is based on the theories of realism, which considers power to be the core of international relations, and in this case it is not hard power, but rather soft power. Other main important theories are colonialism and neocolonialism, as the countries were long time under French colonial rule, as well as orientalism or dependency theory, which also deals with the topic of influence. Based on the analysis of relations in the fields of foreign policy, economic cooperation and security cooperation, the influence of France on the two former colonies is compared in the theoretical...

Parental responsibility and netolism.
KUČERKOVÁ, Helena
The thesis deals with netolism and other risky behavior of children and adolescents on the Internet, points out the fundamental role of parents in this issue. It introduces the concepts of dependence, the family and parental responsibility. Attention is paid to addiction to social networking sites and online games and some other types of risky behavior on the Internet, e.g. cyberbullying, sexting, cybergrooming. The impact of excessive internet use on the development of children and adolescents is considered. The theoretical findings are supplemented by the view of social worker's of the Authority for Social and Legal Protection of Children and a non-substance addiction prevention worker of the Pilsen Region which was obtained by conducting semi-structured interviews.

Analysis of associations between multiple causes of death using methods of network analysis
Ukolova, Elizaveta ; Burcin, Boris (advisor) ; Lustigová, Michala (referee)
The aim of the thesis is the application of network analysis methods in the study of relationships between multiple causes of death. As a result of increasing life expectancy and of the growing proportion of people dying from chronic diseases in developed countries, the analysis of multiple causes of death may be a relevant topic, as this approach makes it possible to analyse the circumstances of dying, not just the single cause initiating the entire disease chain leading to death. The purpose of this work is to construct the system of causes of death, in which the complexity of the relationships between the causes of death reported on the death certificate would be captured. First network is created from the first part of the death certificate, and we distinguish between the "causing" condition and the consequent one in a pair of multiple causes of death. The second network is designed for the second part of the death certificate, and in this network, we do not differentiate the direction of the link. Networks are then analysed with various centrality measures and community detection, and we also examine neighbours of selected diseases. Essential part of the thesis is the explanatory analysis of multiple causes of death, because it determines methods later used in network analysis. It was found...

Multivariate Dependence Modeling using Copulas
Klaus, Marek ; Šopov, Boril (advisor) ; Gapko, Petr (referee)
Multivariate volatility models, such as DCC MGARCH, are estimated under assumption of multivariate normal distribution of random variables, while this assumption has been rejected by empirical evidence. Therefore, the esti- mated conditional correlation may not explain the whole dependence struc- ture, since under non-normality the linear correlation is only one of the de- pendency measures. The aim of this thesis is to employ a copula function to the DCC MGARCH model, as copulas are able to link non-normal marginal distributions to create corresponding multivariate joint distribution. The copula-based MGARCH model with uncorrelated dependent errors permits to model conditional cor- relation by DCC-MGARCH and dependence by the copula function, sepa- rately and simultaneously. In other words the model aims to explain addi- tional dependence not captured by traditional DCC MGARCH model due to assumption of normality. In the empirical analysis we apply the model on datasets consisting primarily of stocks of the PX Index and on the pair of S&P500 and NASDAQ100 in order to compare the copula-based MGARCH model to traditional DCC MGARCH in terms of capturing the dependency structure. 1

Ethics and Power in Social Health Services
Hradcová, Dana ; Holmerová, Iva (advisor) ; Bittnerová, Dana (referee) ; Parry Martínková, Irena (referee)
The following text is an ethnographical study of relations in which care is shaped. On the example of care homes with special regime I describe how power is made and how different ideals are enacted in care of people with dementia. Through the analysis of daily activities' micro practice, I introduce two possible ways (modes of ordering) of care for frail elderly with cognitive impairment. The first of the modes is based on an enactment of ideals introduced into the practice by the Social Services Act and related system of quality standards: autonomy, individualisation, activation, and inclusion. It relies on standardisation of procedures, detailed specification of actions and management by objectives. The second mode of ordering, which could be located in the stories from care homes, is founded on an inevitable human dependency and vulnerability, and on general human need of giving and receiving care. In it, relationships and care improvisation here and now play the key role. My ethnographic fieldwork has shown that in everyday practice these two ways of doing good care co-exist - they complement each other, overlap and sometimes clash. People in care homes, striving for the better and the best care, either keep together, or hold apart these different and non-coherent ways of care. In discourse of...
