Title: The effect of paraglider's wear and tear of different performance levels on the flight quality Aims: The main aim of this thesis is to define all main aspects participating in paraglider's wear and tear and changes of flight quality connected with it. Confirmation or non-confirmation of our assumption that paragliders of lower performance levels are wearing and tearing faster than paragliders of higher performance levels, especially because of poor handling by inexperienced pilots is also an important aim of this thesis. Methods: A porosimeter JDC MK1 was used as the main diagnostic tool. We have measured a porosity of skytex, material from which the paragliders are sewn. The total number of paragliders has been 253. Results were presented by using Excel spreadsheet and analyzed by using Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: Paraglider's unequal wear and tear of different performance levels was found. There has been a downward trend in wear and tear on the age of gliders from the category EN B to EN D. Performance category EN A has not been wear and tear on the level that we have expected. Keywords: paragliding, paraglider, skytex, flight quality, porosity
Motivational aspects of FTVS student's increased interest in skydiving and paragliding
Bartoš, Libor ; Dvorský, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Čadová, Libuše (referee)
Title: Motivational aspects of FTVS student's increased interest in skydiving and paragliding Objectives: The main objective of this work is to define in theory the psychological terms connected with motivation based on studied literature and then to make a research focused on identifying the motivational aspects of FTVS UK students to participate in the skydiving and paragliding courses. Another objective is to compare these aspects in the paragliding group and the skydiving group. Methods: The method I used in an empirical part of the thesis to collect data was the method of non- standardized questionnaire. The researched object was formed by two groups of FTVS UK students. The first group was created by students of skydiving basic course and the other one was created by students of paragliding basic course. The total number of respondent students was 65. Results from the questionnaire were analyzed by using Excel spreadsheet, primarily by a frequency and average functions. Results: I have found out that most students don't have just one motivational aspect to practise these sports, but we can mark out several groups of these aspects which appear by each student in certain proportion. After that, it was possible to identify which aspects are dominating in the paragliding group and which are...
