Growth and Phosphorus Dynamics During Tolypothrix tenuis Cultivation – a Cyanobacterium of Biotechnological Potential
Mušálková, Petra
2024 - English
Here I investigated the course of biomass growth, phosphorus uptake and changes in intracellular phosphorus content in T. tenuis in a batch cultivation. Cultivation experiment was held in multiple bubble columns during a light regime (alternating light and dark periods 16 and 8h). Thanks to this experiment I was able to obtain a growth curve of T. tenuis. The decrease of phosphorus concentration in the medium was disproportionally faster\nthan biomass growth resulting in significant oscillations of phosphorus content in the biomass, which are typical characteristics for LPU. It was also observed, that after all phosphorus was removed from the medium, the algae growth continues over time, while obviously utilizing intracellular phosphorus reserves. These findings are valuable in course of using this cyanobacterium for efficient bioremediation of eutrophic water based on phosphorus removal by targeted algae cultivation.

Influence of Material Properties and Mixing Dynamics on Heat Transport in Granular Materials
Kokavcová, Anna
2024 - English
This study evaluates the effect of rotational speed on heat transfer and analyzes particle motion at different stirrer rotational frequencies to understand how primary and secondary flows affect heat transfer efficiency. It also examines the effect of Young’s modulus on heat transfer at different agitator\noperating speeds. Key simulation parameters and their influence 33 on heat transfer efficiency are detailed to improve the reproducibility and applicability of the results.

Numerical study of the steady airflow in the human respiratory system during inhaling and exhaling
Lancmanová, Anna; Bodnár, Tomáš
2024 - English
This paper presents some of the initial results of the numerical simulations of a steady turbulent flow in human upper airways during inhalation and exhalation. The mathematical model is based on the system of Reynolds-Averaged incompressible Navier-Stokes equations complemented by the SST k − ω turbulence model. The simulations were performed using finite-volume open source solver OpenFOAM on a realistic three-dimensional geometry. The main aim of this particular study is to verify the computational setup with special focus on appropriate choice and implementation of boundary conditions. The prescribed boundary conditions are chosen to mimic the physiological conditions during normal breathing cycle. This study aims to gain an insight into the airflow behavior during the inhalation and exhalation process by comparing the results of two distinct simulations corresponding to two different (opposite) flow rates . The obtained local flow rates and flow fields for both cases are presented and mutually compared. This initial work should serve as a foundation for future more complex simulations that will include the time-dependent and compressible effects.

Česká putování za Richardem Wagnerem
Fránek, Michal; Kopecký, J.
2024 - Czech
Studie zkoumá fenomén českých cest za slavným německým skladatelem Richardem Wagnerem a do míst spojených s jeho kultem (Mnichov, Bayreuth, Curych atd.). Zaměřuje se na wagnerovské cesty – uskutečněné i neuskutečněné – českých skladatelů (Bedřich Smetana, Antonín Dvořák, Zdeněk Fibich, Josef Bohuslav Foerster), interpretů (Ema Destinnová, Karel Burian aj.), hudebních kritiků (Otakar Hostinský, V. V. Zelený), malířů (Jaroslav Čermák) a spisovatelů (Julius Zeyer, Jaroslav Maria, Teréza Nováková), přičemž sleduje jejich různé motivace. The study explores the phenomenon of Czech travels to famous German composer Richard Wagner and to the places associated with his cult (Munich, Bayreuth, Zurich, etc.). It focuses on the Wagnerian journeys – accomplished and not – of Czech composers (Bedřich Smetana, Antonín Dvořák, Zdeněk Fibich, Josef Bohuslav Foerster), performers (Ema Destinnová, Karel Burian, etc.), music critics (Otakar Hostinský, V. V. Zelený), painters (Jaroslav Čermák) and writers (Julius Zeyer, Jaroslav Maria, Teréza Nováková), tracing their different motivations.

Matching to suppliers in the production network: an empirical framework
Alfaro-Ureña, A.; Zacchia, Paolo
2024 - English
This paper develops a framework for the empirical analysis of the determinants of input supplier choice on the extensive margin using firm-to-firm transaction data. Building on a theoretical model of production network formation, we characterize the assumptions that enable a transformation of the multinomial logit likelihood function from which the seller fixed effects, which encode the seller marginal costs, vanish. This transformation conditions, for each subnetwork restricted to one supplier industry, on the out-degree of sellers (a sufficient statistic for the seller fixed effect) and the in-degree of buyers (which is pinned down by technology and by “make-or-buy” decisions). This approach delivers a consistent estimator for the effect of dyadic explanatory variables, which in our model are interpreted as matching frictions, on the supplier choice probability. The estimator is easy to implement and in Monte Carlo simulations it outperforms alternatives based on group fixed effects. In an empirical application about the effect of a major Costa Rican infrastructural project on firm-to-firm connections, our approach yields estimates typically much smaller in magnitude than those from naive multinomial logit.

Disappearing stepping stones: technological change and career paths
Kashkarov, Daniil; Artemev, V.
2024 - English
Which career paths lead workers towards high-skilled non-routine cognitive occupations? Using PSID data, we show that, for a significant share of workers, a career path towards non-routine cognitive occupations goes through middle-skilled routine occupations, with the majority going through a subset of routine cognitive occupations. We then argue that the decline in employment in routine cognitive occupations due to routine-biased technological change can negatively affect the chances of younger cohorts joining high-skilled occupations. To test this hypothesis, we develop a structural occupational choice model that endogenously generates realistic career paths and estimate it using PSID data and job ad data from three major US outlets covering the period from 1940 to 2000. Our estimations suggest that, on average, 6% of workers ending up in non-routine cognitive occupations use routine cognitive occupations as stepping stones that allow them to maintain and accumulate human capital and experience relevant for later employment in high-skilled occupations. A fall in employment opportunities in routine cognitive occupations over the period of the most intensive routine-biased technological change led to at least 1.37 million lost high-skilled workers who got stuck in less skilled occupations.

Reaction Mechanisms of Psychoactive Compounds
Sokolová, Romana; Beneš, Marek; Jiroušková, Eliška; Degano, I.
2024 - English
The reaction mechanism of selected new psychoactive substances (NPS) 4-methylpentedrone and 2-(((4-ethyl-2,5-dimethoxyphenethyl)amino)methyl)phenol was investigated based on their\nelectrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties. Both drugs were examined by means of cyclic voltammetry using diagnostic parameters for particular reaction schemes, UV/Vis, and IR\nspectroelectrochemistry. Since water participates in the redox mechanism of both studied compounds, the reaction mechanism was studied under a controlled amount of water in an\nacetonitrile environment.
