Thesis is dealing with PVAC dispersion adhesives. Main objective of this thesis is to assess the influence of compression pressure on strenght of glued joint. For research were used two kinds of adhesives. Secondary task was also determine if one of used glues suits to normatively appointed denominations of classe of durability D3. Speciments were made according to norms ČSN EN 204 a ČSN EN 205, than they were gummed by selected glues using different compression pressures and exposed to appointed conditions, which corresponds to classes of durability D1, D2 and D3. Finally there were determined strenght of glued joints according to the same norms and evaluated the influence of compression pressure. Results from all measurments were registred per tables and graphs.

The more we know about the circulation of CSF through ventricle system, brain parenchyma, subarachnoideal space and the development of intracranial pressure (ICP), the more we understand different pathologies and pathological processes of the central cervous system. The knowledge about the basic hydrodynamic charecteristics of craniospinal system is a key factor for understanding a wide range of pathological situations affecting CNS, these are for example intracranial hypertension, normal pressure hydrocephalus and syringomyelia. In the presented paper, we are presenting a newly developed measuring system Visionbrain that enables us to gain the biological data and consequently to analyse them. At the same time, the results of such measurements were used to specify the compertmental model of CSF circulation. The model devides craniospinal system into five divisions - two intracranial and three spinal. Such model is the third generation of this model and, compared to the older version, it includes two intracranial veins. Thanks to this stucture, the model enables us simultaneous modeling of heart and respiratory pulsations of CSF. Compared to the other published models, it also includes defined structure of spinal part. The model is derived using laws of conservation and it encompasses pressure...

The main aim of this diploma thesis is to deal with the influence of tire properties and parameters of driving dynamics. In the introduction are discussed the driving dynamics of vehicles and the importance of tires and their construction. The second part is devoted to implementation and evaluation of the own experiment. My experiment is to test the braking tire inflation and condition of various different sizes. The conclusion summarizes the importance of proper tire condition.

The key goal of the following diploma thesis is to evaluate influence of the air pressure in the car tires on the driving dynamic, stability and comfort. The first part is dedicated to the theory of the driving dynamic, stability, tire parameters and tire inflation. Next practical part is focused on the drivers’ knowledge about the correct tire inflation and follows with the measurements and evaluation of the influence of the tire inflation on the driving characteristics, riding comfort and its comparison. These influences are summarized and followed up by the recommendations for the drivers and also the expert activities.

The main goal of this thesis is the analysis of trends of relative atmospheric humidity, absolute atmospheric humidity and water vapor pressure from years 1981-2015. Only days without precipitation were included in the input data set. The data used in the analysis comes from eight meteorological stations located in the Czech republic: Doksany, Churáňov, Kocelovice, Kostelní Myslová, Kuchařovice, Liberec, Lysá hora and Přibyslav. The statistical significance of the trends was evaluated with the Pearson’s correlation coefficient. The results show no clear evolution of the trends of the relative humidity. On the other hand, the trends of absolute humidity and water vapor pressure show significant rising trends in July (at six stations) and November (at seven stations). The July trends are probably caused by higher temperature during summer and the cause of the November trends might be caused by higher precipitation in autumn.

The aim of my thesis was to monitor and analyse the dynamics of soil moisture (Θ) through the gravimetric method using Kopecky's physical rollers (KFV) and the capacitance method using Theta Probe ML2x (FDR) and CS616 (TDR) sensors. The measurement took place in the cadastral areas of the village Vícemelice and Polkovice. I conducted 10 parallel measurement campaigns of KFV and Theta Probe in Vícemilice and 4 in Polkovice. CS616 sensors were located stationary in both locations throughout the whole period and provided continual time series Θ. In Vícemilice, Theta Probe undervalued by 11.4 % compared to the KFV. The CS616 undervalued by 6.5 % compared to KFV and overvalued by 3.9 % Theta Probe. In Polkovice, Theta Probe undervalued by 1 % compared to KFV. The CS616 sensors systematically overvalued compared to the other two methods. It overvalued by 40.9 % compared to KFV and by 42.1 % compared to Theta Probe. Furthermore, the overvaluation was higher with a greater depth, while it was only 11 % at the top layer. Lastly, a survey of the suction pressure of soil water in relation to Θ was conducted near Vícemilice and the results of Θ measured by CS616 sensors were compared to the values simulated by SoilClim model which is one of the tools used to monitor water supplies in soil, in particular the occurrence of drought at the national level. Based on the results obtained in the framework of the submitted thesis, it can be stated that the indirect methods, in particular the Theta Probe, have proven to be useful tools for monitoring soil moisture. Compared to the destructive method, they represent significant time savings and, due to their accuracy, they can be recommended for drought monitoring, calibration of mathematical models, satellite imaging, or testing of a variety of hypotheses related to the water balance in scientific experiments.

The subject of the thesis was the analysis of recycled wood for the use of glued beams on selected mechanical properties. Recycled wood was used for this research. Test specimens, ie lamellas with dimensions of 2000 × 80 × 20 mm, were made of both recycled wood and healthy wood, which was subsequently glued into a laminated beam, always after an odd number of layers; 2000 × 80 × 100 mm. Subsequently, values of tensile strength and modulus of elasticity in cross-fiber compression were determined experimentally. The measured data were statistically analyzed and the results discussed and compared with the literature.

Patients with a brain injury must overcome a central neurological insult and a systematic metabolic response. The systematic response includes hypermetabolism, hypercatabolism, altered vascular permeability, increased hormone and cytokine release, altered gastric emptying, altered mineral metabolism and altered immune status. This response may initiate mechanisms which lead to secondary brain injury and may adversely affect the function of other organs. Last two decades have improved our knowledge of pathophysiology in patients with primary and secondary brain injury including traumatic contusions. In a moment of injury, primary brain injury which is traumatic contusion can not be therapeutically prevented it can only have a preventive effect. Secondary brain injury can be therapeutically affected although both types of injuries have common pathophysiological signs of disturbed metabolism on cells and subcellular level. Research methods based on molecular biology opens a new zone of research reaction of central neurological system for trauma or ischemia with effort to get involved immediately at the beginning of developing adverse pathophysiological cascade leading to a death of neurotic cell. The brain contusion is a primary centre of brain injury with anatomic changes which can be graphically proved. In...

Our study focuses on the connection between existence of a punctum fixum (or point of support) and respiratory muscle strength. Respiratory muscles execute both respiratory and postural function. Therefore, their strength defines both of these functions. We summarize contemporary knowledge about respiratory and postural functions of the respiratory muscles, their interactions and the connection to postural stability. We used a spirometry assesment of maximal respiratory pressures (PImax and PEmax). The values of PImax (PEmax respectively) retrieved in stance and during water immersion without stable support were compared. We found statistically significant differences. PImax was lower in the water immersion situation (p=0,0009; p≤0,05) and so was PEmax (p=0,0076; p≤0,05). Regarding the results, we suppose a significant influence of punctum fixum presence/absence on maximal respiratory muscle strength. Possible reasons are discussed.
