Formation of the Concept of energy self-sufficient of residential buildings
Hlavsa, Tomáš ; Horák, Petr (referee) ; Chlup, Jan (referee) ; Meixner, Miloslav (advisor)
Creating the concept of buildings is the primary task of architects, designers in the field of architecture and engineering. Although the basic requirements remain the same across time , possibilities of their solution are constantly evolving and changing. In addition, with the increasing globalization, in context of the housing and the architecture is expected new requirements go beyond the horizons of the interests of bouth investor and designer. Global view of each project and the evaluation of its traces left in our environment and society, although is much discussed but rarely taken into account or even just considered. In this context, we are witnessing the development of new trends of the concepts of buildings, consisting in the use of natural materials, in reducing the environmental burden of a surroundings, in reducing energy demands, or even in an effort to achieve energy independence thus trends, whose common denominator is sustainable construction, hence sustainable development in general. Feasibility of the creation of the concept of energy self-sufficient building doesn´t consist only in the precise solution of the assigned task from the perspective of the designer or investor, but also in finding such a solution which, even with using new trends and principles, will not go against the initial idea itself. The present instrument processed and presented in this dissertation has the ambition to move global view of the project into the perspective of a particular individual design process and in small way contribute to the creation of better projects from the perspective of sustainable development The term of energy self-sufficient buildings are not clearly defined. To work with them it was necessary to determine their basic definition that describes their diverse conceptual variations and allows precisely define the solution area. To correctly select the optimal solution in terms of sustainable development is necessary the assessment and mutual comparison since the beginning. As a basic tool for this assessment was used and partially modified SBTool, which is built on three basic pillars of sustainable development - SOCIAL - ENVIRONMENTAL - ECONOMIC. SBTool tries to determine the degree of left traces of the approach from the perspectives of these three aspects and evaluate the effectiveness of the selected solution. This tool allow to compare the different concepts for the same project among themselves, their parts but also various projects among each other. All of course with regard to the development of various aspects in the time.

Frühbauerová, Martina ; Lejsal, Matěj (advisor) ; Bosá, Monika (referee)
Sexuality and intimacy of the elderly have been the focus of increasing attention of international research and everyday care in recent years, and as such it more commonly appears even in Czech institutionalized aged care. This thesis aims to create a tool that may be used for the evaluation of the as-is state regarding sexuality the of the elderly. It focuses mainly on the attitudes, and competencies of the staff of aged care, and their support in the organizational structure. The tool is based on factors identified in the literature review and may be used by different organizations providing aged care to evaluate itself and identify possible interventions regarding the sexuality of its clients. Key words: active ageing, aged care, evaluation tool, person-centered approach, quality of life, sexuality of the elderly
