Nondestructive Neutron Diffraction Residual Stress Measurements in a Large Depth in Steels
Woo, W. ; Em, V. ; Mikula, Pavol ; Šaroun, Jan ; Seong, B. S.
Residual stresses can be effectively and nondestructively measured through a large thickness of e.g. welded plates, by means of a new design of a reactor-based neutron diffractometer. Most of the engineering neutron diffractometers have a difficulty in increasing neutron penetration capability over 25 mm total thickness in steels. However, it can be significantly enhanced up to 70 mm with 4-mm spatial resolution along the depth by using the wavelength selection in combination with neutron focusing by cylindrically bent perfect monochromator. Present paper presents details of neutron diffractometer performance and some results.

The influence of stress factors on the students of faculty of health and social studies
PILARČÍK, Jan
The main theme of this thesis is the influence of stress factors on the students at the Medical Social Science Faculty. Stress is a very broad theme and has a wide range of effects on the students. It can affect every part of our life. If we truly want to understand its influence on students Medical Social Science Faculty we first have to find its origin. In the theory part we find that a lot of authors agree that stress originates in us, it is in us, it comes from us and that we create it within ourselves. This diagnosis, however, is not satisfactory because there are great differences between the ways people create their own stress. We go on to find out what influences we tend to follow in creating behavioral patterns, as a nation, family or as individuals. These influences we regard as true and indiscriminately use as guidelines for our day to day lives. We find that from our early years we develop a view of the world around us using different mechanisms. One sees a glass half full and another half empty. So, also each one of us deals with problems and stressful situations in various different ways. We find different opinions on how to deal with the wrong influences and patterns in our lives. We realize that anyone, if they want and believe, can completely change beyond recognition and be happy. We also find that happiness is closely connected with the spiritual. The practical part of this thesis is done in the form of deep interviews with the students Medical Social Science Faculty. To my surprise the students were very open to these interviews. The thesis describes the stress factors on the students. I find that the field of stress factors is very wide and the students often have trouble dealing with it. Because they don?t know the principles, functions of stress and methods of how to work on themselves and how to get rid of it, they often seem to negatively influence its effects. Thanks to acquiring a deeper understanding of the subject, the obtained information can serve as a basis for improving the quality of education and the students? life. It can also be used for further research in the area of stress and its complications. I hope that my thesis will be an inspiration for others like myself who are trying to deal with stress and the problems and difficulties of student life and that it will encourage and help guide them in dealing with everyday life.
