Design of mechanism for pronation and supination of the upper limb prostheses
Rebenda, David ; Košťál, David (referee) ; Paloušek, David (advisor)
The goal of of this work is to propose a mechanism for pronation and supination of the upper limb prosthesis and its subsequent implementation of functional prototype. The teoretical part summarizes the basic types of forearm amputation and the effect of restricting rotation of the forearm. It also describes the basic distribution of upper limb prostheses and drive types. Construction design includ complete technical documentation is made in Autodesk Inventor Professional 2013 and Rhinoceros 5.0 SR8. The prototype is made of aluminium and ABS plastic.

Technique of ground contact of the Czech elite female runners
Petrikovičová, Markéta ; Červinka, Pavel (advisor) ; Feher, Jan (referee)
Title: Foot strikes technique of elite Czech female runners. Aims: The main aim of this thesis was to analyse the pedalling of elite Czech female runners at the beginning and at the end of the main part of the training unit. Subsequently, to compare the results with the literature on the subject, to answer the research questions and to formulate conclusions. Methods of work: Kinematic analysis was used to create this work. Considering the objectives of the thesis, a qualitative method was chosen with subsequent recording of key moments of the foot strike technique in a recording sheet. Results: The fatigue during the main part of the training unit of the Czech elite female runners did not affect their pedaling technique. Female athletes who specialize in middle distances usually adopted a forefoot or midfoot landing strategy, while long- distance runners are characterized by a heel strike. Key words: ground contact, analysis, elite female runners, pronation, supination

The effect of playing table football on pupils´ handwriting
URBANOVÁ, Markéta
The thesis explores the possibilities whether playing table football may influence the handwriting of primary school children, i.e. whether it makes the psychomotor aspects of learning to write easier to master. The theoretical part of the thesis is based on medicine and kinesiology. It introduces the functional anatomy of hand when writing. Also, it is based on recommendations concerning correct writing tools and aids used when teaching handwriting. Next, the research part presents factual findings from the field and opinions of respondents helping interpret the research findings.

Atypical Pronation of the Sub-Talar Joint: Its Implications on the Lower Limb.
Frank, Danielle ; Pánek, David (advisor) ; Satrapová, Lenka (referee)
Title Atypical Pronation of the Sub-Talar Joint: Its Implications on the Lower Limb Background Atypical pronation of the sub-talar joint, or overpronation of the foot, as it is more commonly known, is a current subtopic in foot and lower limb-related biomechanical issues. Typical pronation is a tri-planar movement that involves eversion of the hindfoot, combined with abduction and dorsiflexion of the forefoot. Atypical pronation is recognized when this motion is excessive, and may be determined by the extent and duration to which this occurs according to the rhythmic timing during the gait pattern. It is a mechanical problem of the foot that primarily results from a subluxation or shift of the sub-talar joint and bones of the mid- and hind-foot. As a common finding in the general population, especially in those with flexible flat feet, atypical pronation may result chronically in a displacement of the bones and joints of the lower limb. Research has stated that excessive pronation of the ankle-foot complex may cause change in position of certain bones in the lower limb. This is believed to occur through an interaction between foot and pelvis through a kinetic chain mechanism. Furthermore, it has been stated that atypical pronation may affect weight transfer of the lower limb during gait that may...
