Modeling the movement of people when organizing mass cultural events
Zelinka, Martin ; Apeltauer, Tomáš (referee) ; Okřinová, Petra (advisor)
The thesis deals with the movement of people in the event of mass events where a large number of people accumulate and thus the risks associated with problematic of so-called soft target. The study deals with the movement of people, taking into account the behavior of visitors, as well as the influence of individuals, couples or groups, as well as the possible movement of evacuated following a critical event. As the target of the analysis is the International Folklore Festival in Červený Kostelec. The aim of the work is to optimize the layout of the festival venue, adjacent areas and accompanying events in its surroundings so as to ensure maximum safety for the participants and eliminate crowd phenomena under different scenarios. The numerical model of the festival with the wider environment created by the Pathfinder software tool will serve as a basis for optimizing the solution.

Modeling the movement of people when organizing mass cultural events
Nikolov, Daniel ; Apeltauer, Tomáš (referee) ; Okřinová, Petra (advisor)
One of the medium-sized festivals held annually in the Czech republic – Vizovické Trnkobraní. The bachelor thesis deals with modeling the movement of people during this cultural event. To better understand the issue, different scenarios have been created and subsequently compared. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to decipher the crisis spots of the festival from the point of view of pedestrian traffic and subsequently to determine effective steps leading to their optimization. Furthermore, it emphasizes the minimum requirements of the basic soft target protection system when organizing mass cultural events. Last but not least, bringing the model to the general public.

Assessing the protection of significant soft targets against terrorist attacks by pedestrian simulation
Uhlík, Ondřej ; Hromada,, Martin (referee) ; Apeltauer, Tomáš (advisor)
Diploma thesis deals with the issue of terrrorism in relation to soft targets and subsequent assessment of the selected soft target in terms of possible terrorist attack. The objective is primary school Sirotkova in Brno. The assessment criteria was evacuation of the school as a whole and its individual parts. A risk analysis was performed for the object to determine real threats in which there were clasified the probability and extent of impacts of potential attacks. The most likely scenarios of the attack were identified, based on this analysis. These scenarios were subsequently implemented into an advanced numerical 3D model, where the evacuation was simulated within these scenarios. In the framework of the school assessment, the work focused on comparing three different approaches to the evacuation process. The evacuation process was compared according to parameters of experimental data obtained from the practise of evacuation of primary school with evacuation processes set acording to the parameters of fire standards CSN and international SFPE fire safety standards. The results of the individual simulations were processed with a statistically determined probability percentile. The outcome of the assessment was to determine the probable evacuation time of the school and its individual parts. Based on these results, there was performed a proposal to optimize the evacuation process of the school, which made the process more efective and shortened the evacuation time to minimalize the impact of a potential terrorist attack.

Protection of soft targets in the Czech Republic
KYSELA, Martin
This bachelor thesis entitled Protection of soft targets in the Czech Republic deals with current issues related to the security of soft targets in the Czech Republic. The goal of this thesis is to analyze the security of selected Christmas markets in December 2020. It is necessary to draw attention to the fact that all events which took place in the Czech Republic were affected by pandemic measures due to SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection throughout the whole year 2020, hitherto fairly unchanged to April 2021. These measures also applied to all mass public events that were directly dependent on the development of the pandemic at the time of the Christmas markets. The first aim of this thesis is to analyze security measures of selected public events - dec. 2020 Christmas markets in towns, namely: Praha, České Budějovice, Český Krumlov, Písek and Týn nad Vltavou. The selection procedure of cities mentioned above was carried out in the way that capital, regional and district cities were represented. Thus, the result is an evaluation of the degree of vulnerability of the Christmas market and their mutual comparison. The second aim of this thesis is to devise a leaflet that would clearly inform the public about the basic principles of behaviour in an attack on a soft target. Apart from the goals mentioned above, to investigate whether is the security/protection of soft targets at the selected public events in the Czech Republic is sufficient, statistical research has been implemented. The method of qualitative analysis of available literature is used to carry out this thesis. For the qualitative research, a selected number of Christmas markets was chosen concerning the situation at the time of the Christmas markets, the theoretical saturation was fulfilled. Based on the research results achieved in this thesis, there is a lot of room for improvement of existing security measures. Moreover, the protection of soft targets ought not to be belittled, given the current developments in both local and world politics. The results of this bachelor thesis can be used to obtain a comprehensive view of the issues addressed and the possible practical use of information obtained through research to improve the security policies in public events.

Terrorism and terror in schools.
Pospíšilová, Veronika ; Fiala, Miloš (advisor) ; Vilášek, Josef (referee)
Title: Terrorism and terror in schools Objectives: The goal is to get acquainted with terrorism and terror in schools as a soft target and what resolutions are made to secure its protection. Methods: The method of literature and professional articles analysis has been used in this bachelor thesis. Results: The result of this Bachelor's thesis is to address the issue of terror in schools and the precautions expended for its solution. Keywords: terror, terrorism, soft target, teacher, students
