Influence of inflow orientation on overflow characteristics over broad-crest
Major, Jakub ; Dušička,, Peter (referee) ; Fošumpaur, Pavel (referee) ; Zachoval, Zbyněk (advisor)
Weirs belong to the basic water structures mainly creating vertical contraction of stream against the flumes, which creating mainly horizontal contraction of stream. In the case of the flow over weir usually occurs change from subcritical flow over critical with critical depth to supercritical flow, therefore overflow. Weirs with rectangular control section are described rectangular longitudinal and transverse profile and horizontal crest. Can be distinguish three basic inflow directions to weir. The first is frontal inflow, which is the most frequent in practice. The second is lateral inflow used in distribution and consumption objects. The third is lower inflow used as laboratory weirs, weirs with deeply submerged wall, etc. In terms of knowledge of influence listed directions of inflows, currently are not sufficiently researched the cases of frontal inflow with side contraction and lower inflow on all types of weirs. Due to extent of the issue, labour is focused only on frontal inflow over broad-crested weir with side contraction and lower inflow over broad-crested weir without side contraction. The goal of the labour was to summarize the current knowledge of the flow over broad-crested weir with side contraction and lower inflow over broad-crested weir without side contraction, describe the character of the flow at the overflow and on the basis of it determine recommendations for measurement and calculation of discharge. Further to define unexplored area, specify methods of solution and verify own measurements. The research dealt with application and optimal numerical model setting for to solve the problem.

Thin-plate rectangular weir with inlet shaft
Šváb, Jiří ; Šulc, Jan (referee) ; Zachoval, Zbyněk (advisor)
The thesis is divided into literary research and practical part (own measurement). The content of the literary research is a description of the flow over thin-plate rectangular weir. The practical part is focused on a description of the model, measuring equipment and measurement. The results are evaluation of lower and upper surface of nappe, determination of discharge coefficient, coefficient of relative length of shaft, limit value of relative length of shaft for uninfluenced shape of nappe.

Management of servers with Fedora operating system
Šuba, Filip ; Caha, Tomáš (referee) ; Komosný, Dan (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with a tool for managing research projects in the global experimental network PlanetLab. It is possible to use the Planetlab server manager application for administration. As part of this work, the application was extended with new functions, which are mainly: obtaining information about the status of operation of individual servers, advanced server search according to the size of the server's operating memory, Linux kernel version. Furthermore, the feature of managing servers outside the Planetlab experimental network and the feature of copying files to selected servers were added. The application is available in the PyPI repository and the source code is published on the GitLab platform under the MIT license. The application is available for Linux and Mac OS. A manual in English was prepared for the application.

Minimum head of triangular-notch thin-plate weir
Vicena, Dušan ; Žoužela, Michal (referee) ; Zachoval, Zbyněk (advisor)
The bachelor´s thesis consists of research and experimental part. The content of research part is the description of the overflow height of thin-plate weir with triangular notch, description of surface tension and overview of literature dealing with measuring of overflow height of thin-plate weir. Experimental part contains the description of the experimental equipment, process of measurement and results of experiment. The results are evaluation of measured values and determination dependence of minimal overflow height on the angle of triangular notch and comparison with formulas given in scientific literature.

Seepage path modelling
Petrula, Lubomír ; Baroková, Dana (referee) ; Brouček, Miroslav (referee) ; Říha, Jaromír (advisor)
One of the most dangerous processes that can occur on water retaining structures is deformation due to seepage. During these processes, a rearrangement of individual grains within the material happens and, in some cases, grains may be carried out of the material entirely. The dangerousness of such processes is given due to difficulty of their detection. A special case of deformations due to seepage is a backward erosion piping that occurs in the foundation of the structure (dams, weirs and such). During the process, a material is flushed out of the foundation due to forces induced by groundwater flow which leads to formation of the seepage pipe. The result of pipe progress may be a complete connection of spaces upstream and downstream the structure. Along with the pipe’s backward progression, its widening and increase in depth may be observed. Conditions of initialisation of backward erosion piping have been a topic for research since the beginning of 20th century. However, the data from experiments or even from direct observations on water retaining structures were focused mainly on general conditions and it did not pay enough attention to local conditions within the pipe nor on its tip where erosion occurs. Also, the speed of the whole process and the rate of backward erosion were not researched either. The pipe cross-sectional changes were researched only for materials with high contains of clay. The reason for using only clayey materials was given by ease of sample preparation. The goal of this work was to describe a process of the backward erosion piping that occurs in structure foundation. For this goal, a new device was designed, tested, and used for experimenting on picked uniform sands. After evaluation of obtained results, a new formula for calculation of backward erosion rate was derived. Based on the knowledge on hydraulic conditions in the sample and the pipe, a numeric model of the pipe progression was proposed.

Influence of soil matter and different land cover on the runoff process (experimental research in the paired catchments Zbytiny)
Královec, Václav
The doctoral thesis deals with the evaluation of influences of causal factors that significantly affect runoff processes in landscape. The research is mainly focused on the examination of land and soil cover impacts and partially pays attention to the effects of surface drainage and snow cover. The main effort was to find out the extent of influences of each individual factor on runoff from a different type of landscape. In order to find the correct answer, a methodical approach was applied to small experimental paired catchments where the research has been continuously undergoing since the year of 2006 (the presented results have been collected for 11 years of observations). The small experimental paired catchments are located at the foothills of the Šumava Mountains and they represent small area neighbouring catchments of similar physical-geographic and hydrographic conditions. The catchments were selected as the comparative ones where the main differences are the landscape and soil cover. Moreover, the character of surface drainage is regarded to be an important variable. In the catchment area of the Zbytinský Brook, there predominates the grassland which is largely drained by the subsurface drainage system. In the catchment area of the Tetřívčí Brook the dominant cover is formed by the forest...
