Evaluation of object when upgrading to a barrier-free construction

Cílem této bakalářské práce bude zhodnocení objektu při jeho modernizaci na bezbariérové řešení, aby mohl být plně využíván osobou s omezenou schopností pohybu. Mým úkolem bude ocenění stávající nemovitosti, poté navržení úprav pro bezbariérovost a následná kalkulace nákladů. Na závěr bude provedena analýza zhodnocení či možného znehodnocení investovaných financíThis work deals with evaluation of an object when it is upgraded to the barrier-free solution for using by a person with limited mobility. My task will be to estimate the existing property then propose modifications for wheelchair accessibility then calculate costs. Finally will be done an analysis of possible evaluation of invested funds.

Cost analysis of reconstruction of the building within the construction market and the real estate market

Tato diplomová práce se bude zabývat analyzováním ceny rekonstrukce stavebního objektu z hlediska stavebního trhu a realitního trhu. Nejprve budou vymezeny základní problémy vyskytující se při rekonstrukcích objektů a jejich správné způsoby oprav. Dále bude vysvětlena problematika týkající se oceňování nemovitostí dle zákona, tržního oceňování a kalkulace stavebních prací. Vše bude následně aplikováno na konkrétní stavební objekt. Výsledkem práce bude vyhodnocení, zda při rekonstrukci objektu dojde ke kladnému či zápornému zhodnocení investovaných financí a v jaké výši.This diploma thesis will deal with analyzing the cost of reconstruction of a building in terms of construction market and real estate market. First, the work will define the elementary problems encountered in the reconstruction of buildings and their proper repair methods. In the next step, the thesis will focus on the valuation of estate according to law, market value and costing of construction works. Everything will be applied to a specific building. The result of the work will whether the building reconstruction reaches a positive or negative returns on the invested funds and their amount.

A simple fish-based approach to assess the ecological quality of freshwater reservoirs in Central Europe

The assessment of ecological quality in freshwater ecosystems is a key issue in many countries, but conditions for the development of assessment methodologies are often country-specific. This study proposes a simple methodology for the assessment of the ecological potential of reservoirs based on fish communities using a dataset covering major environmental and pressure gradients in reservoirs in the Czech Republic. Fish data obtained by gillnet sampling were correlated with a proxy of eutrophication as a key indicator of anthropogenic pressure for selecting appropriate fish-based indicators, establishing scoring criteria and developing the index of ecological quality. Expert judgement was also used to select potential fish indicators. Nine indicators were selected for the final fish-based index, fulfilling the criteria required by the Water Framework Directive. Two steps were used to validate the fish-based index quantification of its inter annual stability and sensitivity analysis of individual indicators. Finally, the index was compared to a previously developed general index for Central and Western Europe. Our study demonstrates that a combination of expert judgement and strict validation methods can result in an informative assessment of the ecological conditions, which can help identify conservation and restoration priorities. © P.

Replikovatelnost českého psychologického výzkumu

Východiska: Bezdíček, Preiss a Dočkalová (2009) a Preiss a Mačudová (2012) sledovali počet publikací českých docentů a profesorů psychologie a zhodnotili ji jej jako nedostatečný – samotné množství publikací však neříká nic o jejich kvalitě. Jedním z ukazatelů kvality výzkumu je jeho replikovatelnost, která je přitom jedním z nosných témat současné světové psychologie. Ukazuje se totiž, že přinejmenším část psychologického výzkumu replikovatelná není (zejm. Open Science Collaboration, 2015; Klein a kol., 2016) a že nalezené efekty ve skutečnosti neexistují. Naopak efekty, které existují, mohou zůstat skryty v důsledku špatně naplánovaného výzkumu a nízké síly testů. Cíle: Představíme statistické postupy pro odhad replikovatelnosti výzkumu a aplikujeme je na české psychologické publikace. Soubor: Vzorek byl náhodně vybrán ze všech českých časopiseckých publikací indexovaných na Web of Science, u nichž bylo možné získat full-text a které testovaly alespoň jednu hypotézu. Ke každé publikaci byly dohledány údaje o autorech (počet publikací, citovanost aj.). Metody: V každé publikaci jsme identifikovali hlavní hypotézy a zaznamenali reportované statistiky. Na jejich základě jsme odhadli replikovatelnost těchto studií pomocí několika různých statistických testů, a to jak pro celý soubor dohromady, tak i zvlášť podle počtu publikací autorů a dalších ukazatelů. Výsledky: Výsledky popisují replikovatelnost českého psychologického výzkumu. Zároveň ukazujeme souvislosti mezi publikační aktivitou autora a replikovatelností jeho výzkumu.Background: Bezdíček, Preiss and Dočkalová (2009) and Preiss and Mačudová (2012) rated the number of publications of Czech academics (professors and associate professors) and evaluated it as insufficient– however, the number of publications says nothing about their quality. One indicator of research quality is its replicability, which is one of the main topics in the present psychology science. It has been shown that at least part of psychological research is not replicable (e.g. Open Science Collaboration, 2015; Klein et al., 2016) and some of the published psychological effects actually do not exist. On the contrary, some effects can remain hidden due to poor research and underpowered design. Objectives: We introduce statistical methods to estimate the replicability of research and apply them to the Czech psychological publications. Sample: The sample was randomly selected from all Czech journal publications indexed on the Web of Science, where it was possible to get a full-text and which tested at least one hypothesis. For each publication, we search their authors and publication impact (number of publications, their citation etc.). Method: In each publication, we identified the main hypotheses and reported statistics. Then we estimated the replicability of these studies using several different statistical tests, both for the whole set and also stratified by the authors and other indicators. Results: The results describe the replicability of the Czech psychological research. We also show the relationship between authors’ publication activity and replicability of their research

Development of a Control Algorithm for the Optimized Soaking of Cured Hides

Výhody a možné komplikace matematických simulací ? nepřímého modelování. Jako příklad deterministických modelů model namoku konzervovaných k?ží. Minimum hlavních provozních náklad? je stanovená ze závislosti na spotřebě namoku konzervovaných k?ží. Minimum výdaj? závisí, kromě ekonomických a technologických parametr?, na hodnotách fyzikálních konstant. Metody experimentálně stanovených fyzickálních konstant jsou také v příspěvku uvedeny.The advantages and possible complications of mathematical simulations ? indirect modelling of tanning processes are discussed in the introduction. As an example of deterministic models of mathematical simulation, a diffusion model for the cured hide soaking operation is presented. The minima of the main operation costs are determined, following from their dependence on the consumption of the soaking liquid ? technological water. The minimum of the costs depends, besides economical and technological parameters, on the values of physical constants ? the speed constant of the dissolving of the surface solid salt (pre-soak washing), the transport parameter that enables a qualified approximation of the duration of the soaking operation itself, and the effective diffusion coefficient of salt in the inner volume of the cured hide. A possible occurrence of concentration shock is modelled, as well as a method of its prevention. Experimental methods for the determination of physical constants are also presented
