Experimental Study of Wheel Flange Lubrication
Frýza, Josef ; Dzimko, Marián (referee) ; Omasta, Milan (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the experimental study of the influence of operating conditions on the tribological aspects of the wheel flange and rail gauge contact. The wheel flange contact occurs when the vehicle moves on a curve track and it leads to severe up to catastrophic wear regime. For effective reduction of wear is important to apply a suitable amount of lubricant at appropriate intervals into the contact. The issue in this work comprehensively studies using of three laboratory apparatus and six methods that are theoretically and experimentally compared. Assessed are friction, wear, distribution and film thickness of lubricants for different contact conditions. The resulted amount of lubricant and interval of its application eliminates development of seizure at low consumption of lubricant. The understanding of mechanisms that occur in the wheel-rail contact not only helps to reduce operating costs and improved to energy efficiency of movement of vehicle on a track, but it is the basis for safe, reliable and ecological operation of rail transport.

The bachelor thesis deals with the issue of debt and its impact on the seniors´ daily lives. In my bachelor thesis I defined and then examined the following research questions: 1. Do seniors with families and higher education get into debt less often than seniors who do not have a family and have primary or secondary education? 2. Does the debt situation affect women more often than men? 3. What are the most common causes of the debt situation for seniors? The theoretical part of the thesis describes the current situation. It also explains the basic concepts of the given issue in the area of financial literacy and indebtedness. It deals with the causes, consequences and possible ways of solving it. The aim of the thesis is to point out the given issue and show possible ways to the seniors to get out of the debts. For the research part the secondary analysis of the data obtained by qualitative research was chosen. The research was performed by a semi-structured interview with a sample of women and men aged over 60. The interviews were made in response to the contact received from the Regional Office Příbram of the Czech Republic Labour Office - the Contact Point Mělník. Research has shown that: - seniors with no partners and primary education are more likely to face debt problems; - the most common debtors are men; - the most frequent reason for debt are previously unpaid receivables. The expected contribution to practice is to map out the issues and risks of senior citizens' indebtedness and prevent it.

Genetická analýza vybrané dědičné choroby u psů
VOLNÁ, Jitka
In my thesis I concentrated on an analysis of biological samples of 60 dogs, which manifested epilepsy. The aim was to find out the relation between genotype of the selected locus and the occurrence of epilepsy. Based on the results of the analysis, I assessed, whether there is a demonstrable relation between the occurrence of epilepsy and genotype in a particular locus. According to the results, no influence of genotype on the age of first epileptic seizure was proved.
