Using ODE for Design of Dynamic Model of a Four-legged Robot
Seriš, Richard ; Krejsa, Jiří (referee) ; Ondroušek, Vít (advisor)
The objective of this bachelor‘s thesis is to design the dynamic model of four-legged robot Qasimodo by using ODE and programming languange Python, based on analysed parameters and known walking gait parameters. Forward dynamic walking gait task is used to comapare behavior of the model with the real robot Qasimodo. Strike a balance and review of ODE usability for this task. This thesis also reviews suitability and complexity of using ODE for dynamic simulation of the walking gaits of the robot.

Augustin Navrátil and his disident activities
Kordíková, Marta ; Hlavačka, Milan (advisor) ; Randák, Jan (referee)
Augustin Navrátil This thesis addresses the life and work of Augustin Navrátil (1928-2003), a Roman- -Catholic activist from the Moravian township of Lutopecny near Kroměříž. A. Navrátil has not been subject of a complex publication yet, although he is the author of the largest petition demanding religious - and with that going hand in hand also civic - liberties in socialist Czechoslovakia (1988, 600 000 signatures). Followingly, this is the first attempt to biographically outline the personality and motivations of this farmer, politician (member of the party Lidova strana), man who signed Charta 77 but also a husband and father of nine children. The aim is to cover his life from his birth, over his family background to the beginnings and heights of his social engagement. The text will mainly deal with 22 open letters in which he drew attention to various illegal practices and actions of the Communist power, as well as with the three petitions he authored (1978, 1985 a 1988) and the samizdat (self-published) journal Křesťanské obzory (Christian horizons), which he published with a group of others from June 1988 to July 1990. In contrast to most Czech dissidents, he was never sentenced to a prison term for his activities, but he had to involuntarily undergo repeated psychiatric treatment. He was...

Residential Complex in Brno - Komín
Krajan, Viktor ; Kyselka, Mojmír (referee) ; Makovský, Zdeněk (advisor)
Architecture, emanating from philosophy of design, shows the concept of arrangement of eight volumes with a free pattern which generates the maximum amount of open and light space. Structure of the plot is composed of seven apartment buildings and solitary villa. Design of residential complex consists of clear line of public and semi-public space, which complements urbanism of this design. Mass of objects respects the surrounding scale and thereby does not interfere with the surrounding nature and buildings. Functional filling includes a residential function with using of the surrounding area. The layout of the building is designed as a three tracts with four above-ground floors and one underground floor. In the first three above-ground floors are designed two housing units and in a fourth above-ground floor is one housing unit.

Econometric analysis of inflation in open economy
Rebrova, Yulia ; Formánek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Kuchina, Elena (referee)
This bachelor thesis is focused on an econometric analysis of the inflation in an open economy. The aim of this paper is to investigate factors which influence the price level. A priority is given to the analysis of Austrian and Czech economies and of their dependence on the dominant German economy. Different specifications of Phillips curve and Exchange Rate Pass-Through method are used to breakdown the inflation rate. Theoretical part of the thesis carefully summarizes already known facts about inflation and its measuring. Moreover, it includes a closer look at econometrical models which will be used in this paper. The models for each country are developed and compared in the last part of this thesis. Results show that economies of selected countries underline macroeconomic theory and the inflation rate can be expressed by Phillips curve whereas Exchange Rate Pass-Through models cannot explain the behavior of the price level well. This paper reveals the complexity of the topic.

The system of treatment of juvenile offenders in Czech Republic
Sváčková, Stanislava ; Koťa, Jaroslav (referee) ; Lorenzová, Jitka (advisor)
Criminality is very compelling phenomenon, which every advanced society struggle with. The adolescent period is less resistant of negative influence society and that is the reason find systém of suitable actions from juvenilie delinquency. This essay handle how is in Czech Republic solving system of treatment of jevenile offenders and what contains. Outline the problematic of adolescent period and system of criminality prevention. Connection with new principle about juvenile justice enlarge criminal process and available deportment solving of criminal behavior of juvenile offender. We can also look through of violation of law and possibility of intervention social curator. Then it will take us through the system of institutions for court-ordered institutional and protective care and system of treatment of juvenile in execution of a punishment. Own space has Probation and Mediation Service because without it will not be able to get one of most important goals, which is maximum to use legal way how to avoid court. The essay ends with sense that system of treatment of juvenile offenders is set up well, but in work experience we can still find low sites. So the space is still open for deeper analysis each of system elements. The analysis sould help to increase efectivity of system like complex.

Design and functional morphology of insect wings
Jechová, Kateřina ; Prokop, Jakub (advisor) ; Janšta, Petr (referee)
Animal fly ability is undoubtedly one of the biggest innovation in evolution that allow animals to settle down another space on the Earth - the air. However, there are significant impacts on the other organisms during the evolution, too. The insect is single group of invertebrates with abilities to fly and because of that it became the most diversified group of organisms. There are a couple of theories about origin of the insect wings. Two major hypotheses considering the recent insects with their fossil record are widely known. Nevertheless, there is no direct clue to the first Pterygota due to the discontinuity of fossil record in the initial phase of their evolution The wing is very complex and unique structure throughout organisms. Insects became very good fliers during the evolution and wings are also used to protect of the body, carrying sensory organs, etc. Nevertheless, only very few insect species are well explored in term of flight and, an open theme for future studies. Aim of the present work is to describe the significance of the wing and to briefly review its morphological and design properties. Key words: Insecta, Pterygota, wing, venation, morphology, flight, evolution.

Factors causing spatial distribution of ant nest
Zeman, Jiří ; Frouz, Jan (advisor) ; Holec, Michal (referee)
We observed the distribution in the large complex of the interrelated nests of Formica polyctena ant species on the locality Polánka near Mladá Vožice. In GIS we studied which factors affect spatial distribution of the F. polyctena anthills via diskriminant analysis. Totally we maped 244 nests. The main factors affecting the distribution of ant nests are existence of open areas in the forest (paths and openings) and the position of another anthills. The anthills indicate the cluster spacing. Anthills in the openings are smaller than those in the highwood.

The role of Src family kinases in RNA processing
Gemperle, Jakub ; Rösel, Daniel (advisor) ; Mácha, Jaroslav (referee)
Until now, a lot of information have been obtained about the role of Src family kinases in the cytoplasm or at the plasma membrane and their interactions with growth factor receptors or focal adhesion complexes. Their functional importance at the perinuclear membrane, or even inside the nucleus, however, has not been well characterized. This work, using available information, pointed at the fact that Src family kinases can be found in the nucleus. This opens a new field of Src kinases action, such as in RNA metabolism, considering that it has been assumed that their activity is limited to the cytoplasmic compartment. This work summarizes the current knowledge that hints to Src family kinases dependent network of regulation of RNA metabolism; Src family kinases have pleiotropic effects not only on the RNA binding proteins, but also on the remodeling of chromatin structure. These kinases affect by direct interactions with other proteins transport, splicing or RNA stability and gene expression. This summary suggests that Src family kinases could regulate RNA metabolism on many levels.

Catalytic function of DNA-dependent RNA polymerases
Sýkora, Michal ; Vopálenský, Václav (advisor) ; Lichá, Irena (referee)
DNA-dependent RNA polymerase is a highly organised protein complex that is responsible for gene expression and its regulation. Multisubunit RNA polymerase with its several catalytic activities is responsible for transcription of genes to RNA copies in all cellular organisms. During transcription RNA polymerase undergoes substantial conformational changes depending on the conditions in a particular cell. RNA polymerase in a state designated as an elongation complex passes through repetitive cycles of adding a nucleotide to the growing RNA chain. The active center contains two magnesium ions which coordinate the reactive groups of substrates. Furthermore, the active center contains structural elements that participate in binding of substrate, propper orientation of substrate towards the template strand and translocation of the RNA polymerase. The most important of these mobile structural elements are the bridge helix and the trigger loop whose conformational changes accompanies nucleotide addition cycle. Advances in the structural and biochemical characterization of RNA polymerase open new possibilities in the understanding of the transcription mechanism, its fidelity and control.

The complex of wabet and court in temples of the Thirtieth Dynasty and the Ptolemaic and Roman period
Coppens, Filip ; Bareš, Ladislav (advisor) ; Vachala, Břetislav (referee) ; Györy, Hedvig (referee)
The study at hand focuses on an architectural complex or ensemble that regularly occurs in temples of the Thirtieth Dynasty and the Ptolemaic and Roman period. This ensemble generally combines an open court with an elevated and covered chapel, and is referred to as 'court' and wabet, respectively. The present study aims to bring together the common characteristics and essential components of all ensembles of wabet and court in order to get a better understanding of the ensemble's role in the temple and its development over time. Following a brief introduction to the thirteen temples that appear to contain this ensemble in their core and to the complexes themselves (chapter 1), the following chapters focus on the ensemble's location, orientation, layout, and chronology (chapter 2), the designations in use to refer to this complex (chapter 3), a description and analysis of the texts and reliefs applied to its walls (chapter 4), and a study of the origin and development of this decorative scheme (chapter 5) in order to gain a better insight into the activities performed in the complex and its role within the temple. With the main components of a typical complex of wabet and court in mind, the question is raised whether and to what degree various older spaces in temples from the New Kingdom and the Late Period...
