Portugal elderly home
Keblovská, Lucie ; Wolf, Petr (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
The subject of this bachelor thesis is the design of a house for the elderly in Barreira, Portugal. The building is designed to accommodate vital elderly people who do not need round-the-clock nursing care and, in addition, the building offers the possibility of cultural and educational use for the public. The site in question is located on the outskirts of the town in a quiet neighbourhood of family houses with a connection to vehicular and public transport. It is also connected to a pedestrian road leading to the city centre. Access to the site is designed both on the western side, where it directly connects to the main road, and on the eastern side, where a secondary road runs along the site. The site slopes steeply to the east and the property is therefore largely set into the ground. The main idea of the design is "a house interspersed with nature". The three main materials - green steel , light coloured plaster and oak wood - are complemented in many places by plants and trees that are close to Portugal, such as olive trees, lavender, etc. The whole building is embedded in the ground so as not to appear massive from the street and this, among other things, achieves a moment of surprise when entering the building. At the main entrance, the building appears unobtrusive, enclosed and extends from one edge of the property to the other. From the lower road, however, it is possible to see the building in its 'full glory', because at that moment it opens out into the landscape and one can observe the action on the galleries. From the eastern path one can see the three floors and the garden between them. Life in the building is thus cut off from the main road and provides beautiful views. The building is designed to clearly distinguish between public, semi-public and private space. In the layout, emphasis is placed on ensuring privacy for the residents even though the building is open to the public. The U-shaped layout offers a great opportunity to place the client accommodation units at the foot of the building, where they are afforded privacy and quiet, with public spaces in the central part of the building for meeting and socialising. With a central entrance directly adjacent to the social spaces, the public does not have to walk through the building to reach these spaces, and it is the residential units that are located away from the main entrance that offer privacy and quiet. The courtyard between the residential tracts offers part outdoor seating, part herb garden and/or ornamental garden. It is also directly connected to ramps leading to a separate chapel building. The chapel has a rectangular plan and is set into the ground so that its roof is loosely connected to the surrounding terrain. The entire complex is designed to be wheelchair accessible, whether it is the entrance doors or interior doors, landscaping or evacuation

Dubský, Martin ; Mikyska, Kamil (referee) ; Dostál, Lukáš (advisor)
This work analyzes the seismic tests to valid technical starnards. Here is explained the term technical standard and written summary requirements for seismic resistance circuit breakers low voltage. The work includes devices suitable for the purpose and extreme laboratories dealing with seismic tests. The final section provides a draft test station with estimated economic return. Seismic tests are a very important part in the design of not only switching technology. It allows you to simulate the selected mechanical effects which may on the unit during operation or transportation to work and increase its reliability.
Impact hammer calibration
Bilík, Šimon ; Klusáček, Stanislav (referee) ; Beneš, Petr (advisor)
The theoretical part of this thesis focus on the description of the piezoelectric accelerometers and their use for the impact measurements. It also characterizes the construction and the calibration process of the impact hammers with the use of the piezoelectric accelerometers. The practical part describes the place of calibration with the calibration tools, identifies the source of the oscillations on the output signal of the accelerometer and suggests its compensation. Part of the thesis is a service program for the impact measurement, analysis and the impact hammer calibration. Thesis also describes the methodology of the calibration and quantifies the measurement uncertainty.

On the edge : social intervention in contemporary art and culture
Peroutková, Pavla ; Fulková, Marie (advisor) ; Sedlák, Michal (referee)
The Final work of the Bachelor degree 'On the edge' deals with the theme of social intervention and the use of the body in contemporary art and culture. It investigates concrete likenesses of these expressions in the edge of art, primarily in the Czech art scene and searches for its predesessors in the art of the twentieth century. The artistic part represents realised projects and inspired chosen works. The third part is comprised of evaluated questions, investigations into the relationship Basic school students have with contemporary art and a proposal for the possible exploitation of the explored approaches to work in artistic projects for older students of Basic schools.

Anaphylactick shock and the possibilities of dealing with it by a paramedic.
ZÁBRANSKÝ, Stanislav
The aim of the thesis was to map knowledge that paramedics of South Bohemian Emergency Medical Service have during a medical treatment of Anaphylactic shock in out-of-hospital emergency care. This topic included the knowledge of terms Anaphylactic shock, describing its symptoms, the way of its medical treatment, recommended procedures and its style of training. Six employees of South Bohemian Emergency Medical Service take part in this research. Respondents received 15 questions related to this issue. The qualitative research was used to achieve results. All the interviews were semi-structured. As emerged from the research, the training concerning Anaphylactic shock is insufficient. Most of paramedical staff have not been present during any Anaphylactic shock. They have been more present during some Allergic reaction. Therefore, their motivation to gain more knowledge of this issue is not satisfactory. Also, paramedics do not have enough knowledge of a term Anaphylactic shock. They are aware of this term, however, they are not able to describe it. The biggest problem is dosage medications. The paramedics are not sure how to dose medications without consultation with a doctor. Concerning medication of adults, the knowledge is better. However, in the case of children, the paramedics confess that they do not remember the procedure. Paramedics follow the rule which takes into consideration kilograms of a patient. However, for the reason of the faster intervention, it is better to give the amount of medication with regard to the age of a child. Another problematic question is a position of a patient when transporting to a hospital. To have better orientation and knowledge of procedures during Anaphylactic shock, paramedics should have more extensive training. Except for the mandatory training from an employer, the paramedics should have an occasional initiative of gaining the knowledge by their own.
On Belief in Power
Smetana, Pavel ; Hogenová, Anna (advisor) ; Blažková, Miloslava (referee)
This thesis researches the phenomenon of (mostly human) power from the point of view, from which human accepts it and believes in it. At first, it deals with the phenomenon of power in the work of Machiavelli (The Ruler) and it points out the possible danger of its absolutisation. For insight into thinking of Machiavelli, it deals with the analysis of Ľubomír Belás and also with the viewpoint of Anna Hogenová, Jan Patočka, Ernst Jünger, Václav Bělohradský and other authors. The thesis also shows the Comenius' criticism of Machiavelli. There comes a sort of revelation of the principle of power which disregards other values and the thesis warns against it. In the next step, the thesis researches the conception of Václav Klaus (Blue, not a Green Planet) and with the help of Jan Keller's statements and some scientifical opinions in ecological issues (Ravi Kumar Kooparapu) the thesis finds it closed in a certain way of economical thinking, guestioning-suppressive and thus somewhat power-based. Further, this thesis researches the form of strong distortion of the picture of the world which appears in the work of ideologist Alexander Dugin (The Great War of Continents). It shows dangerous power - demagogic features in his work and compares it with the similarities in the orations of Rudolf Goebbels. The...
