Foreigners Police. Alphabetical file cards of the individual files opened between 1835 and 1912 (files nos. 1-999.999)
No full textThe State Archives in Brussels (Belgium) hold more than 154,000 original nominal file cards that provide an entry to the collection of individual foreigners' files between 1830 to 1890. The files were transferred to the State Archives in 1948 and cover about 286 meters. They are arranged chronologically according to the opening date. The alphabetically ordered nominal file cards, that contain basic individual details on each foreigner such as name, geographical origin, occupation and file number, constitute the main source to retrieve a person's file.The archives of the Foreigners Police form a unique and essential source for both genealogical and historical research. In October 2015, the IMMIBEL project 'Outcast or Embraced? Clusters of Foreign Immigrants in Belgium c. 1840-1890' started under the guidance of Dr Bart Willems and Filip Strubbe. The project was funded by the Federal Science Policy Office within the framework of the research program BRAIN-be. The aim of the project was to provide a digitally accessible index to the file cards, so that the Foreigners' files are easier to find and consult. For two years project employee Sarah Heynssens was responsible for coordinating the entry of the data from the file cards into a database.Number of persons: 151.863This dataset is published and preserved in SODHA - Belgian Data Archive for Social Sciences and Digital Humanities.

In combination with optical tweezers, electrophoresis allows for accurate charge monitoring of single particles over long time intervals. The potential of this technique has been demonstrated by Beunis et al. [1], by measuring changes of only one elementary charge on a colloidal particle. This technique opens the possibility to study the dynamics of particle charging processes in e.g. nonpolar liquids, which are not yet understood.
A PMMA particle with a radius of 500 nm in n-dodecane is optically trapped between two parallel transparent electrodes, and is subjected to an AC electric field. The oscillating field induces a sinusoidal particle movement, which is monitored by analyzing the scattered laser light measured with a quadrant photodiode. Under these conditions, the surface charge of the particle can be measured accurately enough to distinguish single electron charges. We find that the charge increases over time as a result of the applied electric field, until it saturates at a surface charge value which is an order of magnitude higher than the initial charge.

In the first part of this work there will be outlined Spannbrucker's life and professional career based on elaborate archival research. Special attention will be devoted to proprietors and a patronage of building projects wherein Spannbrucker participated or whereof was an author. In the connection, his work will be brought in contiguity of contemporaneous cultural, socioeconomical and aesthetical notions and relations. In the second part of this thesis there will be pointed out a characteristic and spring of inspiration of Spannbrucker's architecture by means of an accurate formal analysis. Final part will be a catalog of Filip Spannbrucker's works. Filip Spannbrucker, Czech baroque architecture, count František Josef Schlik, Jean Baptiste Mathey, region of Jičí

Modular System for Distributed User Data Management
No full textTitle: Modular System for Distributed User Data Management Author: Filip Pavliš, Author's email: [email protected] Department: Department of Distributed and Dependable Systems Supervisor: Mgr. Pavel Ježek, Department of Distributed and Dependable Systems Abstract: The main objective of this project was to create a multiplatform modular system for distributed data management. The system supports both local and remote accessible data storage. Therefore a part of the solution is also a server for remote data access. System also provides parallel usage of a local and remote storage which guarantees that the storage is accessible also when connection to server is lost. In this case, system is capable to synchronize changes between the server and a client. A client can use multiple instances of his storage and our system is able to synchronize them through central server. The system provides abstraction over data model to separate plugin developers from its specific behavior. As practical preview of system usability was created an extension application called TuaLoca. The application will contain implementation of preview plugins and basic user interaction.

Number of pages: 73 Number of attachements: 1 Year od defense: 2025 Keywords: Ignác Filip Semmelweis, obstetrics in the 18th and 19th centuries, puerperal fever, mothers, midwives, obstetricians, obstetric education, obstetric clinics, prevention, treatment, hygiene measures, death The bachelor thesis is about the life of Ignác Filip Semmelweis and his contribution to obstetrics. The thesis consists of a theoretical and an empirical part. The theoretical part focuses on obstetrics in the 18th and 19th centuries, the life of Ignác Filip Semmelweis - his childhood, studies, work at the Klein clinic in Wien, Semmelweis' discovery, publishing activities, his work at the Saint Roch Hospital in Pest and the end of his life. The empirical part deals with the analysis of a survey that focused on the awareness of the professional public (students of general nursing, certified general nurse, midwifery, pediatric nurse) about Ignác Fillip Semmelweis and his professional activity. The survey was participated by students of Faculty of Medicine in Hradec Králové and..
Filip Buonaccorsi Kallimach „De legitimo amore”
No full textThe article is an analysis of three works by Filip Kallimach (Filippo Buonaccorsi) regarding marriage (elegy XXII, Epithalamium Fanniae ac Musaei, carmen Ad se ipsum). In the collections of Roman elegies from the Augustian era, there are no wedding pieces. The source of Callimachus’ idea is found by the author of the article in Epithalamium in Stellam et Violentillam by P. Papinius Statius and, indirectly, through the epithalamium of Statius – in the unpreserved elegies of L. Arruntius Stella, a poet of Domitian times.The article is an analysis of three works by Filip Kallimach (Filippo Buonaccorsi) regarding marriage (elegy XXII, Epithalamium Fanniae ac Musaei, carmen Ad se ipsum).
