International economic organizations and impact of their activities on international trade development
Jovičić, Elena ; Sato, Alexej (advisor) ; Štěrbová, Ludmila (referee) ; Čajka, Peter (referee)
The necessity for a more adequate regulation of global trade relations (including support for the liberalization and development of international trade), in the context of the deepening globalization processes, requires a greater level of involvement of international economic organizations and more effective implementation of their activities. The primary purpose of the dissertation is to determine whether and how the World Trade Organization, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank Group have influenced the development of international trading system. The results of this thesis show that international organizations (primarily WTO and UNCTAD) during various stages of its development have been significantly affecting international trade growth mainly through the implementation of specific activities and measures related to a series of agreements and decisions. However, international organizations have had a divergent impact on international trade. The effectiveness of the implementation of specific activities and programs were depending on the political and economic situation of member countries, as well as the governments´ readiness and willingness to implement these measures. On the other hand, the effectiveness of realization of specific activities have been affected by either the internal weaknesses of the organizations, or the insufficient level of cooperation and coordination in the implementation of joint programs and measures aimed at international trade development.

The analysis is realized by marketing minds research of consumers in the Karlovy Vary region. For this purpose, the interviewing technique is used. Finally, based on the given hypothesis and SWOT analysis of companys data, acquired by own investigation, the marketing strategy and its implementation are proposed to the farm.

Development of procesual number sense of primary schools pupils
Holáková, Sandra
This diploma thesis is focused on study of cognitive and communicative phenomena, which appear at solving exercises in semantic and arithmetic environment First-Grade Students' Stepping. These phenomena are revealed by a set of quantitative analysis experiments undertaken with first-grade pupils. Theoretical basis, which make the description of revealed phenomena possible, are generic model theory and semantic embedding of number (Hejný), procept theory (Gray and Tall), mathematical schema building theory (Hejný) and didactic constructivism, structural and semantic conception of number, process, concept, procept.

Dynamic model of planetary gearbox with four satellites and standing planet carrier
Hortel, Milan ; Škuderová, Alena
The precised mathematical and physical weakly and strongly nonlinear parametric dynamic model pseudoplanetary transmission system with kinematic couplings, ie. four satellites with front straight toothing and standing planet carrier (model Wikov type PP) with 28 degrees of freedom was compiled within the project TAČR TA04011656 follow-up to previous research reports Z-1512/14, Z-1521/14, Z-1537/15. Model respects both elastic supports of all gears and by means Heaviside functions possible contact bounces of meshing gear profiles in the area of the lateral tooth clearances. There are a impact effects upon re-contact of tooth flanks both in normal and during the eventual inverse gear meshes, depending on the size of dynamic forces in gearing. Based on the explicit expression of Lagrange equations of this model, the simulation model of transmission system is prepared in MATLAB / Simulink.

Preparation of grafted PP with diferent concentration of MA and IA
Běťák, Lukáš ; Žídek, Jan (referee) ; Kučera, František (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deal with a preparation and a characterization of polypropylene grafted with anhydrides carboxylic acids in a melt. A present knowledge about radical grafting was summarized in a theoretical part. Samples of polypropylene grafted with itaconic anhydride (IA) and maleic anhydride (MA) were prepared in the experimental part. 2,5 dimethyl 2,5bis(tert-buthylperoxy)hexane (Luperox 101) was used as a radical initiator. A Brabender mixer was used for experiment, conditions for grafting were 210 °C, 30 RPM and 6 min. Weight concentration of grafted monomer was in range 0,25 wt % 1 wt %. It was found that a degree of conversion depended on concentration ratio of initiator to monomer. Attached carboxylic groups to polypropylene backbone were confirmed by FTIR spectroscopy. The percentage of grafting was determined by acid-base titration.

Social support in an illness. The comparison of the subjective view of the "non-psychiatric" and "psychiatric" patient at his social support in an illness
Věříšová, Jana ; Štětovská, Iva (referee) ; Šípek, Jiří (advisor)
The thesis is devoted to the social support in an illness of adult patients. A theoretical part is engaged in the illness as a pressure situation, patients, their needs and the social support about which we can talk in the context of the illness. The attention is mainly concentrated on the fact how the patients subjectively feel the support whether they accept or reject it, whether they need it and if the way how it is given is convenient or not. An important thing is to feel the support as a positive thing (e.g. desirable, helpful) and a negative one (e.g. limiting). The selective file, whose data are used for the experimental part of the thesis, consists of 40 patients divided into two groups called "psychiatric group" and "non-psychiatric group". Besides a medical diagnosis the fact which of the patients' health troubles are felt by them as the dominant ones is important for their including into these groups. The basis of the experimental part of the thesis is the quality analysis of the obtained data that are also completed with the quantity comparison of separate indices and the search of potential relations of dependence between them with the help of correlations in each group separately. The results from both groups are compared. It turns out that the patients' needs considering the social support in...

Evaluation of Entrepreneurial Opportunities in the Context of Entrepreneur's Experience and Opportunity Type
Vydláková, Pavlína ; Lukeš, Martin (advisor) ; Andera, Michal (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to find out how start-ups or beginning entrepreneurs evaluate business opportunities. More specifically, the intention is to reveal whether their assessment of business opportunities differs in some way depending on the type of opportunity. It was then examined how the assessment of business opportunities differs from the perspective of beginning versus experienced entrepreneurs. This comparison used the research results of Laboutka (2010), who examined the assessment of the opportunities of experienced entrepreneurs. The research method used was a qualitative research using case studies that reflect business opportunities. Based on the investigation it was found that beginning entrepreneurs mostly reflect personal feelings related to that product or segment in evaluating opportunities and the type of opportunity does not play a major role. When comparing beginning and experienced entrepreneurs, there were not identified any significant differences in their assessments.
