Aerial photogrammetry was chosen as an additional observation method of the subsidence depression that was created above exploited coal mining panels near Karviná. While individual points of a permanent observation network were repeatedly surveyed by GNSS, the whole subsidence depression was surveyed by the aerial photogrammetry. As this method was applied three times (during three years) we can compare its results in individual years and observe the major surface changes on the undermined area. Also, a comparison was realized between the points’ coordinates gained from both aerial photogrammetry and GNSS. The results show that the method of aerial photogrammetry enriches and complements the GNSS observation in monitoring the spatial development and shape of the subsidence depression, especially in the areas of active recultivation., Vlastimil Kajzar, Hana Doležalová, Kamil Souček and Lubomír Staš., and Obsahuje bibliografii
Accumulating evidence indicates that hypertension is associated with "ion channel remodeling" of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). The objective of this study was to determine the effects of exercise intensity/volume on hypertension-associated changes in large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channels in mesenteric arteries (MAs) from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Male SHRs were randomly assigned to three groups: a low-intensity aerobic exercise group (SHR-L: 14 m/min), a moderate-intensity aerobic exercise group (SHR-M: 20 m/min), and a sedentary group (SHR). Age-matched Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKYs) were used as normotensive controls. Exercise groups completed an 8-week exercise program. Elevation of the α and β1 proteins was unequal in MA myocytes from SHRs, with the β1 subunit increasing more than the α subunit. BKCa contribution to vascular tone regulation was higher in the myocytes and arteries of SHRs compared to WKYs. SHR BKCa channel subunit protein expression, β1/α ratio, whole cell current density and single-channel open probability was also increased compared with WKYs. Aerobic exercise lowered systemic blood pressure and normalized hypertension-associated BKCa alterations to normotensive control levels in the SHRs. These effects were more pronounced in the moderate-intensity group than in the low-intensity group. There is a dose-effect for aerobic exercise training in the range of low to moderate-intensity and accompanying volume for the correction of the pathological adaptation of BKCa channels in myocytes of MAs from SHR., Y.

Moderní kardiovaskulární rehabilitace u pacientů s chronickým srdečním selháním (CHSS) je v zahraničí chápána jako multidisciplinární proces. I přes obrovské pokroky v léčbě tohoto těžkého onemocnění není zatím v České republice věnována prakticky žádná pozornost ambulantní rehabilitační péči o nemocné s chronickým srdečním selháním. Přitom vhodně nastavená pohybová aktivita prokazatelně zvyšuje kvalitu života a omezuje náklady na léčbu těchto nemocných. Tento přehledový článek poukazuje na velký přínos kardiovaskulární rehabilitace pro pacienty s CHSS. Klíčová slova: chronické srdeční selhání – kombinovaný trénink – aerobní kapacita – kvalita života – Threshold IMT – inspirační svalstvo, Foreign specialists understand modern cardiac rehabilitation in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) as a multidisciplinary process. Despite huge advances in the treatment of this severe disease in the Czech Republic, virtually no attention is paid to outpatient rehabilitation care for these patients, although appropriately chosen physical activity demonstrably improves quality of life and reduces the cost of treatment provided to these patients. This review highlights the great benefits of cardiac rehabilitation for patients with CHF. Keywords: chronic heart failure – combined training – aerobic capacity – quality of life – Threshold IMT – inspiratory muscle, and Dosbaba F., Žurková P., Ludka O., Vysoký R., Baťalík L., Špinar J., Kolařík O.
The study presents evaluation of optical measurements of the air flow field near the fluttering profile NACA0015 with two-degrees of freedom, Mach number of the flutter occurence were M = 0.21 and M = 0.45. Aerodynamic forces (drag and lift components) were evaluated independently on the upper and lower surfaces of the profile. Using the mentioned decomposition, the new information about mechanism of flutter properties was obtained. The forces on the upper and lower surfaces are phase shifted and are partially eliminated as a result of the circulation around the profile. The cycle changes of these forces cause the permanent energy contribution from the airflow to the vibrating system. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
This paper describes the airliner wing flutter sensitivity analysis. The sensitivity coefficients define the influence of the structural parameter changes to tthe structure eigenvalue and flutter stability characteristics. Evaluated structural parameters represent the possible changes of the structure due to the installation of the smart high-lift devices at the leading and trailing edge region. In general, we can suppose the increasing of the mass and mass moment of inertia around the elastic axis and decreasing of the stiffness. Described effects are ordinarily considered destabilizing regarding the flutter. The main aim of the presented work is to evaluate the impact of components to the stability and to define the most critical regions or parameters. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
