Lightweight mortars with content of alternative raw materials and resistant to adverse effects
Morkusová, Kristýna ; Jakubík, Aleš (referee) ; Bydžovský, Jiří (advisor)
This diploma thesis describes research and following development of lightweight cement mortars with alternative raw materials. Attention was focused on study of the effects of extreme influences such as high temperature (up to 1200 °C), freeze-thaw and agressive sulfur dioxide. Verification of durability of developed mortars was realized using physical and mechanical tests (density and strength), physical and chemical methods (computed tomography) and scanning electron microscopy. Assessment of durability was realized in a longer period of time (90 days).

Effect of fly ash on the durability of concrete
Vašek, Tomáš ; Kulísek, Karel (referee) ; Hela, Rudolf (advisor)
Bachelor thesis consists of two parts, theoretical and practical. In the theoretical section provides basic information on the manufacture of fly ash, development and principle of High Volume Fly Ash Concrete and view on this type of concrete in the Czech Republic. Listed below are the world´s knowledge of conduct of durability and potential problems that can act on them. The theoretical part ends with summary of the utilization of fly ash in various areas of construction industry. In the practical part compares the characteristics of each recipe containing fly ash with recipe containing only Portland cement. Finally, is evaluation of results of practical part and influence on the durability of fly ash concrete.

Vliv nízké teploty na propustnost buněčných membrán a přežití rostlin
Kubovčíková, Anna
Plants are naturally exposed to low temperatures in nature. During the winter, the temperatures are the lowest and in certain places they even reach very low values. Jasmonic acid plays an important role in the plant's resistance to low temperatures. In the thesis, we have focused on the effect of the PLIP genes that produce precursors of jasmonic acid. The role of the genes in cold resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana was studied after acclimation in different light conditions. The observed parameters in plants acclimated to low temperatures were the parameters of photosynthesis, intactness of cell membranes and survival after exposure to freezing. The results of the experiments proved that the mutation of the PLIP genes cause a decrease in the integrity of the cell membranes when exposed to freezing, and conversely, the ectopically increased expression of the PLIP3 gene results in an increase in plant resistance. Based on ion leakage, we determined LT50 values for each variant, and it was shown that the difference between the most resistant transgenic line plip3 ox and the mutant line in all three PLIP genes is more than 4 °C. Subsequently, a plant survival test after freezing was performed, where it was demonstrated that the LT50 value correlated with plant survival. Chlorophyll fluorescence analysis showed that after acclimation to low temperature, there are no large differences in photosynthetic parameters between individual genotypes with modified PLIP level. The light that was applicated during acclimation had a more pronounced effect on the plants. Plants acclimated at low intensity showed higher values of non-photochemical quenching as well as greater maximum quantum yield of photosystem II. The results prove that the PLIP genes are significantly involved in the resistance of plants to low temperatures.

Metody protimrazové ochrany sadů
Grund, Ivo
This bachelor thesis deals with unfavourable spring frosts, their impact on plants and the occurrence of spring frosts in the future. Furthermore, the thesis contains description of individual protective methods that plants should protect against spring frosts and their mutual comparison. In the last part, a pilot plant experiment is established in own pear tree orchard.

Little ice age in the documentary sources
Žáková, Nikola ; Soukupová, Jana (advisor) ; Synáčková, Marcela (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on the description of the period called Little Ice Age based on documentary sources information and the early meteorological measurements. This phase lasted approximatelly from 13th century till mid 19th century. I also mention the possible causes and important historical contexts in the thesis, on which climate change associated with Little Ice Age could have considerable influence. While searching for information on a particular topic, I relied on the assumptions of the books of worlds authors and on chronicles records.
