Tři způsoby interpolace na konečných prvcích
Šolín, Pavel ; Segeth, Karel
Interpolation on finite elements usually occurs in a Hilbert space setting, which means that interpolation techniques involving orthogonal projection are an alternative for the traditional Lagrange nodal interpolation schemes. In addition to the Lagrange interpolation, this paper discusses the global orthogonal projection and the projection-based interpolation. These techniques are compared from the point of view of quality, efficiency, sensitivity to input parameters and other aspects.

The Controlling Study
Herda, Tomáš ; Mikovcová, Hana (advisor) ; Herda, Zdeněk (referee)
The main goal of this Diploma´s Thesis is to make a model for calculation of water and sewer rates for the company Vodovody a kanalizace Náchod, a.s. when sticking to the set criteria both from the side of VaK Náchod, a.s. and law regulations. Based on the theoretical part an analysis of customer sensitivity to the price changes using the data for last 20 years follows. Findings from the first two parts are used in risk analysis in next part. The created model calculates the water and sewer rates based on the information from the company accounting system in the way to generate sufficient financial resources to fulfill the renovation plan of infrastructural property plant and equipment and to transfer given amount to the company funds. In addition, the model monitors whether the legal condition of maximal allowable increase of profit per m3 is met. In the customer sensitivity to the price changes part the price elasticity of demand for water and sewer rates is calculated based on the data from 1995 to 2015. The assumption of inelastic demand is confirmed. Risk analysis part is deals with potential risk regarding the demand and prices. Potential impacts for the most significant risk are quantified. The analysis uses knowledge gained in the first two parts. It was confirmed that potential risks are exiting but do not have any significant impact on the going concern of VaK Náchod, a.s. The created model has been already used for the calculation of prices for the year 2017. Customer sensitivity analysis to the price changes and link to the potential risks is an additional information for VaK Náchod, a.s. which validates that nowadays, there are no significant threats which could affect the demand and water and sewer rates significantly.

The practical part is detailing concept and realization of the setting of the Conditioning Chamber, which is controlled by graphical measurement software Control Web 6. The thesis is finished by exemplary measurement and is being service of practical approximation of the measurement test.

Experimental investigation of the temperature sensitivity of the hot-wire/film probes and temperature correction
Antoš, Pavel
The paper deals with the fluid temperature effect on the hot-wire anemometer output signal. There is described a correction method which compensate for fluid temperature drift in a constant-temperature anemometer operation.

Srovnání citlivosti 17 ekotoxikologických bioestů pro detekci cyanotoxinů
Maršálek, Blahoslav ; Bláha, L.
Detection potential of some bioassays used for cyanotoxin detection seems to be promising, but the real comparison of results and the sensitivity to cyanotoxins is imposible, because different authors use different cyanobacterial sample with uncomparable toxin composition, different methods for sample preparation, different design of bioassay, media, etc. A critical comparison of alternative bioassays for cyanotoxins detection, which is important for water management is up to date still missing. The aim of the present study was to compare the sensitivity of 17 bioassays for cyanotoxins detection (with respect to the content of hepatotoxic microcystins )using the same cyanobacterial biomass, and the same sample preparation . Additional aims of this study was as follow: i) can the fractionation of cyanobacterial biomass improve the sensitivity and decrease the variability of bioassays? , ii) which bioassay can more precisely dicrimine the presence of microcystins - is there any dose-response relationships? Cyanobacterial biomass was fractionated by SPE-C18 columns. Crude aqueous extracts, "non-toxic" pigment fraction without microcystins and "toxic" fractions (concentrated microcystins) were compared. This fractionation allowed to determine if the toxicity is due to microcystins, or some other not monitored metabolites present in the complex crude extract.

Do Consumers Really Follow a Rule of Thumb? Three Thousand Estimates from 130 Studies Say “Probably Not”
Havránek, Tomáš ; Sokolova, Anna
We show that three factors combine to explain the mean excess sensitivity reported in studies estimating consumption Euler equations: the use of macro data, publication bias, and liquidity constraints. When micro data are used, publication bias is corrected for, and the households under examination do not face liquidity constraints, the literature implies no evidence for the excess sensitivity of consumption to income. Hence little remains for pure rule-of-thumb behavior. The results hold when we control for 45 additional variables reflecting the methods employed by researchers and use Bayesian model averaging to account for model uncertainty. The estimates of excess sensitivity are also systematically affected by the order of approximation of the Euler equation, the treatment of non-separability between consumption and leisure, and the choice of proxy for consumption.

Sensitivity of a probe with two heated sensors to concentration of a helium admixture
Jonáš, Pavel ; Mazur, Oton ; Šarboch, Jaroslav ; Uruba, Václav
Formulas of the dependence of the CTA output signals to the change of concentration of the Helium admixture into air flow are derived. They are analysed usingan example of a particular dual sensors probe.

Strain gauge measurements of deformations on rubber patterns
Vaněk, František ; Pešek, Luděk ; Cibulka, Jan
This contribution deals with proposal of the method for strain gauge measurements of rubber patterns under dynamic loading. As deform elements the silicon strain gauges were selected. Two calibration test rigs, such as cantilever beam and clamped membrane, were chosen for evaluation of deformation sensitivity of the strain gauges glued at rubber patterns. Material constants of rubber as linear visco-elastic model were evaluated from dynamic tests on the test rigs.

The Tolerance Analysis of Filters with CDTA
Miksl, Jan ; Jeřábek, Jan (referee) ; Šotner, Roman (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the concept, design, modeling, tolerance and sensitivity analysis of the KHN filter using CDTA. The first part contains theoretical introduction about filters and their general properties. Secondly, the CDTA element, its block structure, schematic symbol as well as its circuit features are defined. Standard KHN filter structure with operational amplifiers is simulated. Results of this simulation are used for comparison with simulations results of CDTA KHN filter structure. The multifunctional CDTA KHN filter structure is simulated using ideal CDTA models, third-level models and models based on professional macromodels of attainable components (AD 844, MAX 435). Then tolerance and sensitivity analyses are explained and described. The following section discusses ways of modifying the structure and design KHN structure with CDTA models 3rd level. In the last chapter the circuit is optimized using PSpice and the attention is focused on achieving the best possible involvement of the typical characteristics of the elements of tolerance. In conclusion, the results of simulations are evaluated, compared the characteristics of circuit before and after optimization, and mention the advantages and disadvantages of filter elements with CDTA.

The topic of my Bachelor thesis is focused on through acquaintance problems of load influence on baroreflex sensitivity, to creat measuring protocol and implementation of this measurement. In this project, I examined how baroreceptors and then baroreflex work. I also note with physiology of blood circulation, and I examined the different types of measurement baroreceptor sensitivity. I did the measurement by measuring protocol. I evaluated the results using spectral methods and processed in Matlab. Finally, I have different results statistically evaluated using T-test.
