Viscous type vibration damper of a four-cylinder diesel engine
Bůžek, Václav ; Ramík, Pavel (referee) ; Píštěk, Václav (advisor)
The point of the dissertation is to describe the design of powertrain of four-cylinder diesel engine equipped with vibration damper. After estimating the discreet model of powertrain, forced vibration calculation is performed to design appropriate vibration damper. The following part describes the safety factor solution of crankshaft fatigue using FEM. The dissertation provides a useful comparison for versions with and without damper. Crankshaft and viscous type vibration damper drawings are also included as appendices.

Make a monument over the grave of the dead. Material funeral culture of the early-modern period using Prague as an example.
Jarošová, Eva ; Koldinská, Marie (advisor) ; Bůžek, Václav (referee) ; Jakubec, Ondřej (referee)
The dissertation presents monuments of material funerary culture, especially tombstones and stone epitaphs from the period 1500-1650 in the territory of Prague. The work analyzes 592 records of these monuments and evaluates them from a functional and content perspective. It deals with their dating, location, and material, as well as their appearance, content of the inscription and script. The findings are put into the context of European and Czech funerary art. When compared with Czech, and especially foreign material, the culture of Prague tombstones appears to be very modest to indistinct, completely lacking some forms or even types of monuments. One reason for this particularity is the character of Prague as a royal city, which provided an exclusive, but rarely continuous burial space. The second reason is the long-term Protestant environment in the city, which had a strong impact on moderation in the visual arts. This is also related to the non-development of portrait sculpture, which was considered too luxurious. On the other hand, confession as such plays a rather marginal role in the culture of Prague tombstones and stone epitaphs, and is expressed mainly by the choice of burial place. Keywords: early modern period, epitaphs, funerary culture, Prague, tombstones

Ideological Intervention in the Early Modern Period. The Case of the Dutch Republic and the Estates of Cleves-Mark in the 1640s and 1650s

(EN) Ideological Intervention in the Early Modern Period. The Case of the Dutch Republic and the Estates of Cleves-Mark in the 1640s and 1650s 1648 is traditionally considered a major break in international relations. This thesis deals with the Dutch interventions in Cleves-Mark in the period before and after the Treaties of Westphalia and sets out to test some of these traditional assumptions. Rejecting the concept of the "Westphalian" sovereignty, it advocates a relational view based on mutual recognition. Accordingly, it focuses on the negotiations of the three subjects under scrutiny - the Dutch Republic as the intervening power, the Estates of Cleves-Mark as instigators and beneficiaries of the intervention, and the Elector of Brandenburg as the legitimate ruler - about their sovereignty, as they took shape in the arena of the "courtly public", especially in diplomacy. In the first part I argue that the Dutch Republic reacted very conservatively to the pressure to legitimize its role as a new member of the highly monarchical "courtly public". I also examined the impact of the domestic political system and diplomatic ceremonial on the external performance of the Dutch Republic, thereby uncovering the particular role of the Province of Gelderland. In three case studies of direct diplomatic...

Automotive Diagnostic Systems
Bůžek, Václav ; Beran, Martin (referee) ; Ramík, Pavel (advisor)
This thesis is written to make a review abstracting of contemporary systems of automotive diagnostics. It is aimed at the principles of serial and parallel diagnostics and informs about contemporary norms. It brings nearer the basics of used on-board diagnostic systems, including the diagnostics of its components. The thesis also exemplifies the practical functions and possibilities on the elementary diagnosing by using the diagnostic software SuperVag.
