Title: The Weight losing nutrition in sporting This bachelor work is focused on questions of weight- reducing diet in regularly sporting women. The theoretical part is included, describing the principles of biochemical, physiological and metabolic aspects of human body. It explains the concept of active or healthy way of life and shows the manipulation techniques of mass media, having influence on the rational food selection of modern population. The practical part of work is dedicated to the evaluation of questionnaire, including observation and discussion with female probands taking part of the research. The mass media manipulation techniques analyses is included, as well as nourishment recommendations, which are in agreement with a rational nutrition and improve the weight reduction outcomes. Aims: To access the most common mistakes in weight reduction of sporting women, evaluate the quality and availability of nourishment information obtained from mass media and to find errors made by women affected by mass media manipulation. Methods and results: The research was performed in a form of the questionnaire. The pool of 100 female probands collected randomly in beauty studio and fitness centre, with age span of 18-50 years were asked to fill out the questionnaire. Most of them were actively...

The electrochemic's behaviour of the bile acids (cholic, glycocholic, deoxycholic, ursodeoxycholic and lithocholic acid) was studied on the meniscus-modified silver solid amalgam electrode (m-AgSAE) by differential pulse voltammery. Bile acids provide in the solution of the Britton - Robinson buffer and methanol (9:1) in the pH range 3.0 to 12.0 a cathodal signal in the high negative potentials: cholic acid, deoxycholic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid about −1400 mV and glycocholic acid, which alone is the conjugate with glycine, about −1500 mV. Cholic acid, glycocholic acid, deoxycholic acid and ursodeoxycholic acid provide the highest peaks to pH 5.0, approximately in their pKa values. Lithocholic acid provides peaks from pH 7.0. It was demonstrated by the cyclic voltammetry that the electrochemical behavior is influenced by the adsorption of the bile acids to the electrode; presumed reaction at the working electrode - a reduction of a proton of a carboxylic group, is controlled by the diffusion and the process is quasireversible. Utilization of the electrochemical reduction of bile acids for the voltammetric determination does not seem very suitable. It has been proven that the presence of the methanol deteriorates the measuring results for glycocholic acid. In the presence of...

NP search problems and reductions among them Renáta Ševčíková In the thesis we study the class of Total NP search problems. More attention is devoted to study the subclasses of Total NP search problems and reductions among them. We combine some known methods: the search trees and their relation to re- ductions, the Nullstellensatz refutation and the degree lower bound based on design to show that two classes of relativized NP search problems based on Mod-p counting principle and Mod-q counting principle, where p and q are different primes, are not reducible to each other. This thesis is finished by a new separation result for p = 2 and q = 3.

Category management is a process of managing product categories sold by particular retailer (examples of product categories such as: detergents, yoghurts, baby food) and a very important part of this process is the shelf display optimization. The objective of this project is to analyze the range of products sold by the retailer and to propose the optimal number of product facings on the shelf to minimize losses due to stock outs (goods being out of stock). Series of optimization problems were proposed for this objective to solve the optimal range of assortment, the optimal shelf space organization and the optimal stock of individual items on the shelf. Optimization problems were designed to be reused in practice, applying on the assortment of any retailer

Application of constraint programming (CP) is one of the possible ways of solving discrete problems. It can be used for both search for feasible solution and optimization. CP offers a whole range of approaches for either a solution search or for acceleration of the process of its search -- from search algorithms or consistency techniques to propagation algorithms, which are basically only a combination of the two preceding methods. For optimization we most often use branch and bound approach, which differs in some aspects from a method of the same name used in mathematical programming (MP). Comparison of CP and MP is interesting in many other aspects. With CP the formulation of problems is more flexible, which allows for creation of often simpler and smaller models. On the other hand, its disadvantage is a limited use: Constraint satisfaction (optimisation) problem, as we call the constraint programming problem, cannot contain any discrete variables. CP is suitable especially for problems with a lot of constraints and only few variables, ideally only two. In the beginning, the paper introduces the basic terms of constraint programming, then it describes algorithms and techniques used for solving discrete problems and compares CP with mathematical programming.

Random closed sets and random marked closed sets present an important general concept for the description of random objects appearing in a topological space, particularly in the Euclidean space. This thesis deals with two major tasks. At first, it is the dimension reduction problem where dependence of a random closed set on underlying spatial variables is studied. Solving this problem allows to find the most significant regressors or, possibly, to identify the redundant ones. This work achieves both theoretical results, based on extending the inverse regression techniques from classical to spatial statistics, and numerical justification of the methods via simulation studies. The second topic is estimation of characteristics of random marked closed sets which is primarily motivated by an application in the microstructural research. Random marked closed sets present a mathematical model for the description of ultrafine-grained microstructures of metals. Methods for statistical estimation of their selected characteristics are developed in the thesis. Correct quantitative characterization of microstructure of metals allows to better understand their macroscopic properties.

The aim of the thesis is the mathematical and computer modelling of thin films of martensitic materials. We derive a thermodynamic thin-film model on the meso-scale that is capable of capturing the evolutionary process of the shape-memory effect through a two-step procedure. First, we apply dimension reduction techniques in a microscopic bulk model, then enlarge gauge by neglecting microscopic interfacial effects. Computer modelling of thin films is conducted for the static case that accounts for a modified Hadamard jump condition which allows for austenite--martensite interfaces that do not exist in the bulk. Further, we characterize $L^p$-Young measures generated by invertible matrices, that have possibly positive determinant as well. The gradient case is covered for mappings the gradients and inverted gradients of which belong to $L^\infty$, a non-trivial problem is the manipulation with boundary conditions on generating sequences, as standard cut-off methods are inapplicable due to the determinant constraint. Lastly, we present new results concerning weak lower semicontinuity of integral functionals along (asymptotically) $\mathcal{A}$-free sequences that are possibly negative and non-coercive.

The Master thesis deals with utilization possibilities of fly ash after selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR) process for Portland cement preparation as a correction component to the raw material with regard to contaminated fly ash by ammonium sulphate or ammonium hydrogensulfate that is one of the products from SNCR process. Presented thesis was focused on behaviour of raw meal with ammonia hydrogensulfate contaminated fly ash after SNCR during burning of Portland clinker in simulated kiln conditions. The thesis deals with Portland clinker preparation from this kind of raw mix and it studies mainly clinker quality, clinker phases and structure. Quantitative phase composition of prepared samples of clinker was performed by optical microscopy measurements using point counting method and XRD analysis (Rietveld method). Hydration heat flow of prepared clinker was measured by Isothermal Calorimetry. TG-DTA analysis of prepared raw meal was studied due to better comparison of prepared samples and better understanding of processes during burning process.

Responses of tadpoles Bombina variegata (likely unexperienced with predator) to pulses of risk and safety were tested and compared with results of a bachelor thesis previously done on tadpoles Bufo bufo (species likely experienced with predator) to confirm the risk allocation hypothesis. Differences of overall activity of both species were not significant. Differences in activity between Bufo bufo and Bombina variegata tadpoles held in continual risk conditions were observed. Such behavior possibilities are discussed.

This work deals with health and social impacts on overweight and obesity among second year students in secondary schools and their remedy by means of support active program. To determine the prevalence of overweight and obesity was used the BMI values, waist girths, caliper, values of the bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). 336 students was participated in this research and 117 students underwent anthropometric measurements. From all measured were selected 31 students with excessive body weight. Seventeen of them was included in the group Experimental (ES) and fourteen in the group Control (KS). The Experimental group was subsequently administered the intervention active program aimed at reducing body weight and positive effect on health, psychological and social parameters. Investigation was carried out from October 2005 to December 2005.
