Implicit and Explicit Method in nonlinear Dynamics
Vaněčková, Adéla ; Hradil, Petr (referee) ; Němec, Ivan (advisor)
The final thesis „Explicit and Implicit methods in nonlinear dynamics“ deals with the issue of geometrical and physical nonlinear analysis of structures exposed to seismic loading by the methods of direct integration of equations of motion. Solution by the explicit and the implicit method is compared for three material models. While the differences between the results of the explicit method and the implicit Newmark method are small as expected, the differences are substantial between the results of different material models. However, these differences are explained and they are in full concordance with the theoretical assumptions for the pertinent material models. The conclusion of the final thesis is check of correctness of the results of the new module of the program system RFEM for both tested numerical methods and all three analyzed material models. (linear elastic, plastic Drucker-Prager and the Mazars damage model). With sufficient precision of results, both explicit and implicit numerical methods showed to be suitable for seismic analysis. The implicit method can provide several times faster calculation than the explicit one, but the determination of the optimal time step is problematic and time consuming, so the suitability of use of both methods for seismic analysis is comparable.

Buying atmosphere in the selected retail unit
GOLKOVÁ, Iveta
Diploma thesis deals with analysis of the shopping atmosphere of selected retail unit depending on its main objective. In the first part of the thesis - literary research - the theoretical background of the issue is processed. The second part - own work - already deals with the analysis. Retail unit Tesco České Budějovice was chosen for the analysis and a description of its shopping atmosphere is included in the work. The main method of analysis was an on-line questionnaire survey which was carried out among the customers of selected retail unit. Results of this survey served to confirmation or refutation of established hypothesis. A description of shopping atmosphere of one more retail unit was made for completeness of analysis. This description served for the purpose of comparison. On the basis of the data obtained was found that the elements of the shopping atmosphere of selected retail unit are used quite abruptly, and to a limited extent, in accordance with the strategy of focusing on low-priced on the market. Customers (with some exceptions) did not express dissatisfaction with such performing of shopping atmosphere, which suggests that customers who are shopping in this retail unit are focused more on the practical aspects of the purchase, such as low price or breadth of assortment. Four improvements for problematic areas were proposed in the work to increase the efficiency and attractiveness of the store. Areas are following: entrance area, orientation and using of colors in the store, area of counter sale and increase of using of self service checkouts.

BALOGOVÁ, Inka
The objective of the work is the preparation of the project "Revitalization of the Václav Volf residential building 1379/21" to ensure the regeneration of this panel house with the use of money from the structural fund as part of the 1st closed call as declared by the statutory town of České Budějovice on the topic of the Integrated Municipal Development Plan České Budějovice, Máj Housing Estate. A partial objective of the work is an assessment of expected benefits in the field of financing the housing fund as part of the Integrated Municipal Development Plan České Budějovice. The practical part of the essay is focused on an analysis of the possibilities of drawing finances for the regeneration of the housing fund. Using calculations, I use the method of comparing financial returnability IPRM with the subsidy title PANEL, and the regeneration program known as "Green to Savings" (Zelená úsporám). The administrative process of the project is carried out in mutually interconnected activities. The conclusion shows the realization of work actually carried out with practical examples and an assessment of expected benefits in the housing fund.

Higher education in Austria: the rule of law , case studies and implications for Czech Republic
Kravcivová, Aneta ; Neumann, Pavel (advisor) ; Antal, Jarolím (referee)
In 2015, Wien Wirtschafsuniversität ranked among economic universities regularly disclosed on the Financial Times in position number 42. The University of Economics last three years, around 80th place. Why is this so? In the context of this thesis is to analyze not only the legal prerequisites for successful graduates of the master's program Finance and Accounting, but also deals with the practical use of knowledge on the labor market resp. As well as the current unemployment of graduates in what fields they can work, etc. In this work also deals with the human capital theory, which explores the motives for higher education. They are given different conditions during their studies at WU and Economics, as well as development starting salary after graduation. The last chapter contains examples that would be good to apply in the Czech higher education system. The question remains, why WU placed on better positions than ALL? According to the author's investment in science and research in Austria - currently invest nearly 2% of GDP, as well as 100-year-old development WU, when no interruption to develop economic theory and their application in practice, as well as linking university knowledge with practice.

Valuation of Pixelfield s.r.o. company
Vaněček, Lukáš ; Machek, Ondřej (advisor) ; Urbanová, Monika (referee)
The topic of my master thesis is the valuation of Pixelfield, s.r.o. company. The introduction and the theoretical part present basic and advanced procedure with valuating a company. An emphasis is put on the financial analysis and on the financial plan. In the practical part I apply and analyze findings on a company, which makes business in digital marketing and IT. The primary objective is to apply the theoretical knowledge and valuate the company according to the official proceeding. The secondary objective is to confront the valuation with a real situation - that means the real amount of money that possible investors offer. Further I use other possible solutions how to valuate a company and again to confront it with a real situation.

The education and employment of prisoners within and after the execution of their confinement
Jakešová, Ivana ; Minárik, Pavol (advisor) ; Kotýnková, Magdalena (referee)
Introduction of this bachelor thesis deals with an importance of terms "human capital" and "restorative justice". Nowadays, the main aim is not to incarcerate a criminal, but to stimulate him to change his behavior, in order to become a better man. Hence, there is a possibility for a criminal to extend his education, to take up a retraining course or to start working during the execution of his punishment. The main goal of this theses is to find out whether these activities, education, retraining courses or employment within the execution of a punishment are rather a benefit for both convicted and society. Huge range of projects have been created to strive for re-integration of former criminals into society and to the employment market. I will try to answer the question if a criminal becomes better by virtue of activities listed above and I would like to prove it with statistics related to the hight of recidivism, i.e. repeated criminal activity in the Czech Republic.

Participation of patients after myocardial infarction in the active care of their health in the secondary prevention
ŽAHOURKOVÁ, Marie
Prevention of cardiovascular disease including myocardial infarction is in recent years a widely discussed topic. Cardiovascular diseases are currently the most widespread disease among the worldwide. This thesis deals with the participation of patients after myocardial infarction in active care of their health in secondary prevention. For failure principles of secondary prevention is increased morbidity of these cardiovascular diseases and subsequently increase the costs for further treatment. Well-timed and targeted prevention is very important how to reduce the cost of treatment and the restoration of health and maintaining a good quality of life. The thesis is composed of two parts, theoretical and empirical. The theoretical part of the thesis describes cardiovascular diseases, especially acute myocardial infarction, prevention and education, including educational process of secondary prevention. The empirical part was realized by qualitative research. Information was collected by semi-standardized interview technique. The interview was composed of both closed and open-ended questions where had respondents the opportunity to express individually. The research group consisted of patients and nurses of three selected cardiocenters in Czech Republic - University Hospital Motol, České Budějovice Hospital, a.s. and Faculty Hospital Plzeň. In the first phase of the research we examined the awareness of patients of secondary prevention. In addition we inquire into the level of their activities in the care of their health and the impact of realized changes to their life satisfaction. The research sample is consisted of 12 respondents - patients who in former times have had a myocardial infarction and now were re- hospitalized due to symptoms of heart problems. For the research were patients selected by random sampling and divided into three groups, four from each cardiocenter. In the second phase of the research, we investigated the options and rate of education of nurses taking care of patients after myocardial infarction in pursuance of secondary prevention and types of nursing documentation kept by nurses of cardiology ward. This part of the study sample was consisted of nine nurses working in selected cardiocentre. For one interview were approached three nurses from each chosen department with longer experience in the field of cardiology. For the research was established six goals and eight research questions. The results of the research showed that the patients are relatively well educated in the principles of secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease, but not enough by nurses. The knowledge of patients of prevention of myocardial infarction and secondary prevention measures is at a relatively good level. The rate of changes in the approach to secondary prevention is unsatisfactory and doesn´t meet the rate of improvement of capabilities of modern medicine regardless of their age and length of treatment. The research also showed a positive effect of the principles of secondary prevention on the quality of life of patients.

Hash functions - characteristics, implementation and collisions
Karásek, Jan ; Sobotka, Jiří (referee) ; Lambertová, Petra (advisor)
Hash functions belong to elements of modern cryptography. Their task is to transfer the data expected on the entry into a unique bite sequence. Hash functions are used in many application areas, such as message integrity verification, information authentication, and are used in cryptographic protocols, to compare data and other applications. The goal of the master’s thesis is to characterize hash functions to describe their basic characteristics and use. Next task was to focus on one hash function, in particular MD5, and describe it properly. That means, to describe its construction, safety and possible attacks on this function. The last task was to implement this function and collisions. The introductory chapters describe the basic definition of hash function, the properties of the function. The chapters mention the methods preventing collisions and the areas were the hash functions are used. Further chapters are focused on the characteristics of various types of hash functions. These types include basic hash functions built on basic bit operations, perfect hash functions and cryptographic hash functions. After concluding the characteristics of hash functions, I devoted to practical matters. The thesis describes the basic appearance and control of the program and its individual functions which are explained theoretically. The following text describes the function MD5, its construction, safety risks and implementation. The last chapter refers to attacks on hash functions and describes the hash function tunneling method, brute force attack and dictionary attack.
