Biomechanical characteristics in Axel Paulsen jump variations in figure skating
Hrdličková, Kristýna ; Sedláčková, Marie (advisor) ; Šteffl, Michal (referee)
Title: Biomechanical characteristics in Axel Paulsen jump variations in figure skating Objectives: The aim of this thesis was to measure the biomechanical characteristics (height and length) of the single Axel Paulsen jump. The jump was measured from two inputs, namely from a standing position (from zero initial velocity) and from a running position (from a single backward translation). Methods: For the thesis, a quantitative research method was used, namely the measurement of selected parameters of the Axel Paulsen single jump. The measurements were performed on a sample of 16 female figure skaters, in the age range of 10 -16 years. Bar graphs were created for each variable as part of the analysis. The best trials were always selected for quantitative analysis. Furthermore, means and standard deviations were calculated. Due to the size of the measured sample, non-parametric methods were used to test the hypotheses. The Wilcoxon matched pairs test was used, and error plots were generated. Data analysis and graphs were created using IBM SPSS Statistics 24 statistical software. Results: It was found that the single Axel Paulsen jump length values are longer in the run-up version. For the Axel Paulsen single jump height values, it was found that the jump height on the average is 0.5 cm higher in the...

Length measurement
Pecinová, Iva ; Šarounová, Alena (advisor) ; Surynková, Petra (referee)
My bachelor thesis Length measurement deals with the euclidean length measurement. It deals with the history of the length measurement in the Czech country, the emergence of the basic unit of length - meter and especially the circumference. The work is intended primarily for high school teachers of mathematics and lovers of measurements which are expected to at least high school knowledge of mathematics. This text is good for primary schools teachers of mathematics which is intended Handbook for small meter. The component part of my bachelor thesis is an enclosed CD, where is found the bachelor thesis in an electronic form and the already mentioned Handbook for small meter - a version for printing.

Spanish vowels in Czech students' interlanguage
Černikovská, Štěpánka ; Čermák, Petr (advisor) ; Zajícová, Lenka (referee) ; Skarnitzl, Radek (referee)
(English) The dissertation explores the vowel system of Czech L3 Spanish, focusing on three facets of its architecture: vowel quality (following SLM by Flege 1995, 1999, 2003), vowel quantity and vocalic sequences between words. Preliminary studies (Čechová 2013, 2014) suggest that there might be some evidence for the Mechanism of Equivalence in Czech L3 Spanish, since the vowel spaces of both languages consist of the same categories, with different phonetic realizations. Hence, the more similar the sounds are, the harder it is to capture the relevant difference, necessary to attain native-like pronunciation. Vowel quantity, being traditionally associated with the phonological feature of length in Czech (Palková 1994), is not present in Spanish, and compensating for that property, some Czech speakers tend to pronounce accented syllables with extraordinarily longer durations. Finally, vowel sequences in Spanish are usually subjetct to resyllabification, whereas Czech prefers glottalization to keep morphemes of words separated. These predictions were tested in 22 university Czech students with advanced level of Spanish (C1-C1). Subsequent analysis revealed consistent inclination towards L1 in terms of vowel quality, in less extent in vowel quantity, and although the prevalecent strategy for majority...

Srovnání kořenového systému hybridů trav xFestulolium s rodičovskými druhy
Lukášek, Dominik
Rye grass are common considered optimum grass species for intensive agriculture in area with sufficient rainfall, because they provide a high production of quality forage. Unfortunately, they have lack of resistance to abiotic stresses. With heed to the progress climate change, when these stresses will increase, we are looking for genes from better-adapted species of Festuca. Target features are better use of nitrogen and water to attainment high production of forage, increased tolerance to drought and ability rooting compacted layers of soil. These targets lead to research on growth of roots, which are to fulfil the above written targets in award. Following the research of M. Humphreys we are focused on detailed monitoring root growth of three species xFestulolium and their parent species in the early stages of development in our research. They were tested following grasses: Festuca arundinacea (cv. KORA), Festuca pratensis (cv. PRONELA), Lolium multiflorum (cv. MORAVICE) and xFestulolium (cv. HYKOR, HOSTYN and PRIOR). The chosen the method of cultivation in cylinder with sand in outdoor conditions with fertilization in two doses, corresponding to a total 80 kg N/ha. The experiment was performed in two terms: 21. 5. when 23. 7. 2015 and 21. 9. when 11. 12. 2015. In the first term, growth was limited by high temperatures. In the second term were limiting the contrary low temperatures, especially at the end of vegetation. The evaluated parameters were: maximum depth of rooting, total dry root biomass, total root length, root surface, root volume, the ratio R/S, the dry weight of aboveground biomass, maximum height aboveground biomass, number of tillers, number developed leaves, surfaces of the leaves and root length in individual thickness categories. The length, surface and volume of roots with flat leaves, were evaluated through image analysis scans in program WinRHIZO (Regent Instruments, Canada). In most parameters it was the best Lolium multiflorum MORAVICE with xFestulolium HOSTYN. The differences between them are in most of parameters statistically insignificant (outside the maximum depth of root and flat of leaves, where MORAVICE achieved significantly higher values). Anticipated advantages relating to the growth of strong and deep roots in this experiment did not show. The supposed main reason for the termination of the experiment in the early stage of development.

Circumferences and areas of plane figures
Šrámek, Martin ; Robová, Jarmila (advisor) ; Šarounová, Alena (referee)
Title: Circumferences and areas of plane figures Author: Martin Šrámek Department: Department of Mathematics Education Supervisor: doc. RNDr. Jarmila Robová, CSc. Abstract: This diploma thesis Circumferences and areas of plane figures is designed for teachers and high school students. Teachers might find some interesting tasks including various metric problems from the field of synthetic geometry as well as inference of mathematic equations for calculation circumferences and areas of plane figures which are taught at elementary schools and high schools. Pupils can appreciate solved tasks and their knowledge can be applied to other similar tasks. The ninth chapter includes more difficult tasks. There are many drawings exported from GeoGebra which can help students to understand the task better. Keywords: circumference, area, length, teaching of mathematics

The noun phrase in written and spoken academic discourse
Sládečka, Dušan ; Malá, Markéta (advisor) ; Šaldová, Pavlína (referee)
The diploma thesis is concerned with exploring the differences between the noun phrases in written and spoken academic monologue, focussing on the length of the phrase, its internal complexity and syntactic functions. In the theoretical part of the study, the noun phrase, its constituents, structure and usage are introduced. The noun phrase is introduced as one of the means of complex condensation. The basic characteristics of written and spoken academic language are introduced as well. The practical part of the study is a detailed analysis of 210 noun phrases. The written sample is collected from selected academic articles, whereas the sample of spoken lecture is collected from the lecture database of the BASE corpus. Since the study focuses on two different forms of language, the material is analysed for each of them separately and the results are subsequently compared in the final part of each subsection. The hypothesis of the thesis is that the written sample contains noun phrases with more complex modification, whereas the spoken sample contains more simple noun phrases and more clausal modification. The hypothesis was, for the most part, confirmed.
