    Cílem bakalářské práce je představit spisovatele a dobrodruha Jiřího Zemana. Nejprve je popsán jeho život, což nebyl lehký úkol, poněvadž je spisovatel mimo Českou republiku. V rámci portrétu je zmíněna spisovatelova největší vášeň, téma přežití v divoké přírodě. Dále práce obsahuje soupis Zemanovy tvorby vydané na našem území a knih, které měly být vydány, ale kvůli neshodám s nakladatelstvím se tak nestalo. Některá Zemanova díla jsou blíže charakterizována a je upozorněno na autobiografické prvky. V závěru je spisovatel Jiří Zeman zařazen do širšího literárního kontextu.Katedra českého jazyka a literaturyObhájenoThe purpose of the seminar paper is to introduce a writer and an adventurer Jiří Zeman.

    ‘Bombik’s Secret Mission’: A Therapeutic Story and Its Musical Adaptation

    No full text
    The author approaches the topic of interdisciplinary studies in the Institute of Music at the Faculty of Fine Arts and Music at the University of Silesia, located in Cieszyn. The article constitutes a case study of a children’s radio play Bombik’s Secret Mission, written by Bogusław Zeman and adapted by Magdalena Micherda. Therapeutic stories provide assistance in the child’s development process. Thanks to them, the listeners can, for example, learn how to cope with the difficulties of quotidian life. Such choice of worthwhile listening material can be regarded as an investment in their future. Interdisciplinary classes, which combine various fields of study, including literature, pedagogy, theater and music, constitute an important part of a comprehensive curriculum for the students

    On Memory

    On Memory is a collaboration between a composer (Whalley), a neurologist (Zeman) and an author (McCall Smith). Explored through music, science and poetry; each movement tackles a different aspect of memory. How are memories formed? What is the power of forgetting, as well as remembering? What part does music play in our autobiographical memory? After an interval, this is followed with a discussion with the authors led and chaired by Professor Catherine Loveday, digging deeper into the special relationship that music has with memory and our sense of self. YouTube videos show the performance at Kings Place, and the discussion

    Název práce: Vyvolání obousměrné tvarové paměti v NiTi-polymerovém kompozitu Autor: Jakub Zeman Katedra: Katedra fyziky materiálů, Matematicko-fyzikální fakulta, Uni- verzita Karlova Vedoucí bakalářské práce: Sneha Manjaree Samal, Ph.D., Fyzikální ústav Akademie věd České republiky Abstrakt: Obousměrná tvarová paměť umožňuje deformaci materiálu mezi dvěma zapamatovatelnými tvary bez působení vnějších sil, přičemž aktivaci změny tvaru se využívá nejčastěji změna teploty. Mezi řadou způsobů, jak dosáhnout obousměrné tvarové paměti, byla v této práci využita kombinace kovového materiálu Nitinol a vybraného polymeru s tvarovou pamětí. V kom- pozitním materiálu z těchto dvou složek bylo dosaženo bistabilní obousměrné tvarové paměti. Bistabilní obousměrná tvarová paměť je unikátní tím, že umožňuje existenci materiálu v obou zapamatovaných stavech při stejné teplotě. Bylo prokázáno, že rozhodujícím faktorem pro dosažení určitého tvaru je předešlý teplotní průběh kompozitního materiálu. Pro zlepšené spojení kovového Niti- nolu a polymerního materiálu byl povrch NiTi upraven laserem. Mezi několika studovanými polymery prokázal nejlepší vlastnosti polymer vyrobený ze dvou složek, a to 60...Title: Inducing Two-way Shape Memory Effect in NiTi-polymer Composite Author: Jakub Zeman Supervisor: Sneha Manjaree Samal, Ph.D., Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences Abstract: Two-way shape memory effect (TWSME) allows material to ac- tively deform between two remembered shapes without the application of ex- ternal force. The most common stimulus is temperature change with several approaches to induce shape memory effect in the material. The approach stud- ied in this thesis utilizes Nitinol and shape memory polymer. By combining these two materials, bistable TWSME was induced in the composite. Bistable TWSME allows the material to be in both of its remembered shapes at a single temperature. The shape of the material depends on the temperature profile by which the target temperature was reached. To create the composite Nitinol foil was shape set and its surface laser lined to increase adhesion with the polymer. Out of the studied polymers, the best properties for the preparation of com- posite were exhibited by a blend of 60 % TPU and 40 % PCL by weight. The composite was then prepared by hot press and tested. Keywords: inducing two-way shape memory effect, Nitinol, shape memory polymer, composite 1Department of Physics of MaterialsKatedra fyziky materiálůMatematicko-fyzikální fakultaFaculty of Mathematics and Physic
