Personality of Emma Bovary in Gustave Flaubert's roman
Strnadová, Kateřina ; Ébert-Zeminová, Catherine (referee) ; Listíková, Renáta (advisor)
This final work consist in the analysis of Emma Bovary's personality, the main heroine of Gustave Flaubert's roman Madame Bovary. It describes her life changes depending on changing circonstainces of her entourage and on her interior living of these situations. It deals as well with the développement of her personality from a provincial girl over to a young woman and a wife who knows about love only from romantic literature, and finally presents her like a mother and multiple mistress. This work shows Emma Bovary from différents points of view, like a literature phenomenon. The purpose of it is not to understand, to judge or to defend her or her actions, this work just summarises not only her attitudes in different situations in her life, her dreams, troubles, but also little pleasures arising from them.

Modelling and behaviour of composite systems in AC electric field
Matoušek, Jiří ; Frk, Martin (referee) ; Rozsívalová, Zdenka (advisor)
This work deals with modeling of progression of dielectric variables and mixture formulas for solution of properties of composite materials in dependency on frequency. Theoretical part of the work explains physical principles of polarisation mechanisms and influence on dielectric constant with changing temperature and frequency. In theoretical part processes inside the composite material, which is in electrical field are described. The work contains summary of mixture formulas and methods of their derivation. Program for use in education is a part of the work. It allows modelling of progression of dielectric variables in dependency on frequency and Cole-Cole circle diagram. In mixtures it allows modelling of frequency dependencies of dielectric constant in accordance to Maxwell's, Bőttcher's and Lichtenecker's mixture formulas.

A study on the Lightfastness of Color Prints
Štěpánková, Eva ; Reháková, Milena (referee) ; Dzik, Petr (advisor)
This paper gives a brief overview on the published and accepted standards and methods for colour photography and print lightfastness measuring and evaluating. A comparison of selected valid standards and evaluation suggestions has been made. Sample sets was produced by various photographic processes and printing techniques. Identical sample sets were used in both long-term and accelerated ageing experiment. In this thesis, the degradation speed is expressed as a formal rate constant, which was calculated from the dependence of normalized gamut volume on the exposure dose. Photographs and prints were compared on calculated lifetime basis. A failure of reciprocity law was observed, which indicates a lower credibility of estimated lifetime predictions based on accelerated ageing.

Global Economic Outlook - February 2017
Česká národní banka
The February issue of Global Economic Outlook presents the regular monthly overview of recent and expected developments in selected territories, focusing on key economic variables: inflation, GDP growth, leading indicators, interest rates, exchange rates and commodity prices. In this issue, we tend to explore analytically the effect of (un)conventional monetary policy measures on shadow interest rates in the euro area and the USA. Based on our estimates, we show in this article that the effect of monetary policy measures on shadow rates differs depending on whether they were aimed at stabilising financial markets or further easing monetary conditions. We also indicate how the effects of measures taken by central banks can change depending on the current level of financial stress.

Formation of biofilm by probiotic bacteria and its processing to solid drug form.
Grossová, Marie ; Rittich, Bohuslav (referee) ; Buňka, František (referee) ; Márová, Ivana (advisor)
The aim of present work is cultivation of probiotic bacteria L. acidophilus, B. breve and B. longum in such a way that the culture forms cells clusters or comprehensive biofilm on the variety of free carriers. Biofilm formation of L. acidophilus on the silica from point of view bile and acid tolerance in gastrointestinal tract was studied. While the number of living cells in planktonic form (planktonic form) at pH 1 fell by 30 %, the viability of the biofilm cells was maintained to 90 % under the same environmental conditions. The biofilm culture showed also the protection against environment contained bile. Furthermore, the possibilities of drying procedures of biofilm cultures used as commercial technologies in pharmaceutical industry were studied. The comparison of freeze-drying and fluidization bed drying showed, that freeze-drying is more suitable method, which is able to achieve higher amount of viable cells after drying than fluidization bed drying. The effectivity of freeze-drying method is dependent on the selection of suitable cryprotective medium. In this case, about 90 % higher viability after freeze drying was achieved in comparison with fluidization bed drying. Finally, the industrial processing of probiotic strains into the solid dosage form was studied. Tablets should be produced at hardness between 70 and 90 N and water activity of tablet mixture can be maintained below 0.3. Consequently, the drying step of the tablets in a hermetically closed space with at least 10 % of silica gel must be ensured. Thereafter, the tablets contain (5.4 ± 0.7)109 viable cells after 6 months of drying process. Capsule production technology has no significant effect on the cell‘s viability during production. The triplex blistering foil for primary blistering of probiotic capsules was chosen. The triplex foil, which has low values of water vapour transition rate (0.07 g H2O / (m2 × day) and oxygen transition rate (0.01 cm3/m2 × day), was chosen. Other studied blistering foils commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry are not suitable for long storage of solid dosage forms contained probiotics.

Statistical risk analysis of selected companies in regions of the Czech Republic
Veselá, Martina ; Hlavsa, Tomáš (advisor) ; Rudolf, Rudolf (referee)
This thesis mainly deals with statistical analysis of risks in different selected businesses in Czech Republic, when the primary data are obtained through a questionnaire survey for the following statistical analysis, where frequency, mean and variability are used. The work confirmed the hypothesis of the occurance of differences in risk perception depending on the branch of business and also on the region. The conclusions could be used by new emerging companies, that through this thesis might be able to orientate themselves in risks analysis, specifically in their branch of business and the region.

Adolescents substance use : identifying factors influencing alcohol consumption among high school students in the Czech Republic
Mandelíková, Martina ; Strecker, Ondřej (referee) ; Pertold, Filip (advisor)
This bachelor thesis focuses on indicating the factors, which influence the participation in adolescent substance use. Possibly important factors are identified based on the previous researches dealing with the same topic. The effect of these factors is then tested with the empirical model. This thesis deals with a dataset from the European School Survey Project on Alcohol and Other Drugs done at the Czech high schools among freshmen and juniors. Since the results in dependence on sex and class year are expected to be different, the regression is run separately. The most significant factors are for all cases: the smoking experience, the age of the first intoxication, and the share of friends who already consume alcohol.

Otáhal, P.P.S. ; Burian, L. ; Ondráček, Jakub ; Ždímal, Vladimír ; Holub, R.F.
The main purpose of these experiments is to compare results of the size distribution measurements using conventional aerosol methods with results of radioactive aerosols measurements. Additional purpose was to compare our results with published data on dependency of unattached fraction on aerosol particle concentration. Our data show the limitations of the commonly used approximation to this relationship.
