Dynamické experimenty s aerostatickými ložisky na rotorovém stendu Bently Nevada
Šimek, J. ; Kozánek, Jan ; Steinbauer, P. ; Neusser, Z.
Superstructure of Rotor Kit Bently Nevada was designed for identification of aerostatic journal bearing dynamic properties. The test stand enables to run the test shaft up to 10 000 rpm and to excite test bearing by forces with frequency from 0,1 Hz to about 100 Hz. Up to now measured results show reasonable agreement with calculation as concerns quasi-static stiffness and direct elements of stiffness matrix. The agreement between theory and experiment of main elements of damping matrix is somewhat worse and cross-coupling elements of stiffness and damping have considerable scatter. More sophisticated methods of dynamic coefficients idenification are elaborated to improve credibility of results.

Golden foils from Borg - iconographical and religious analysis
Gorroňová, Marianna ; Starý, Jiří (advisor) ; Janák, Jiří (referee)
5A Abstract This work gives the analysis of iconographic elements which are found on five gold foils. These foils depict two figures which look at each other from their profile. Foils were found in the foundations of the chieftain house in Lofot's islands in Northern Norway, which is from the Migration to the Viking period. For the reason of analysis the author demonstrates three main groups of gold objects - gold bracteates, gold foils and one medallion. On these objects we can find a pair of two figures and these objects were found in Scandinavia. The author presents here the context of such finds, iconographic elements and academic interpretations of the depiction. Author compares the elements such as type of foil, appearance of eyes, posture of man and woman, their dress and haidress with 91 foils from Scandinavia, and also with bracteates and other objects. She notices the partial concordance among these elements and the other objects and she seeks the iconographic essence and function of each foil from Borg which is later confronted with the theories of the influence of religion. Because of lack of attributes on the foils, the author's assumption is that there is no general depiction of gods on the foil. On the other hand, each foil has its own story showing people from their common life. According to...

Iranian dress culture (women's dress and its change after revolution)
Kubošová, Kamila ; Korecká, Zuzana (referee) ; Štěpánová, Irena (advisor)
I have structured my thesis into four sections. In the first section, I describe the clothing, make-up and physical appearance that is expected of a woman in public. The second section of my thesis focuses on the influence politics and legal regulations had on women's clothing and women's reactions to these. In the third and fourth sections I explore both my theoretical view and the views of Iranian women I surveyed on the reasons for the important role clothing plays in the society, and why does even the state pay so much attention to the women's apparance. My thesis focuses on the cloting of women in cities, for all changes are significantly faster and sooner apparent in cities than in the conservative countryside. It is from the cities that changes are spread throughout the country. Cities also connect Iran to outside world and are therefore under the influence of other cultures. Although the clothing style of Iranian women absorbs and incorporates foreign elements, these are taken out of the original context and used in new unique ways. 60

Ďoubalová, Iva ; Jakubec, Ivan (referee) ; Jančík, Drahomír (advisor)

Due to information from partial studies about this theme and data from National archive in Prague author made image about ways of protests against monetary reform and its range. Strikes and demonstrations were the most widespread ones. They broke out in almost all bigger cities. It was the first opened protest in the country east of so called iron curtain. However, it is important to mention that discontent was economically motivated, political demands were only rare. Monetary reform meant also social change for most of the people in Czechoslovakia. Its rules were disadvantageous mostly for certain social groups: private farmers and tradesmen (so called "capitalistic elements"). It was another way how they were forced to join socialistic economic sector. But workers were also negatively affected by monetary reform, although they were most important pillar of the regime. Whole society was affected by this upheaval for several years. Principal aim of this work is to show all...

AI Planning with Time and Resource Constraints
Dvořák, Filip ; Chrpa, Lukáš (referee) ; Barták, Roman (advisor)
Automated planning plays an important role in many fields of human interest, where complex and changing tasks involve demanding efficiency and error-avoidance requirements. Research in planning is also motivated by capturing the computational aspects of Artificial Intelligence, where planning, being a reasoning side of acting, is one of the key elements. Introduction of time and resources into planning is an important step towards modelling problems from the real world, however planning is generally hard and introduction of time and resources makes it even harder. In this thesis we explore theoretical aspects of planning, temporal reasoning and resource reasoning. Based on these studies we develop our own suboptimal domain-independent planning system that focuses on planning, where time plays a major role and resources are constrained. We test the developed planning system on the planning problems with time and resources from the International Planning Competition 2008 and compare our results with the competition participants.
