Resilience - Verdigris
Resilience - Měděnka
(Czech Technical University in Prague, 2026-06-16) Reythar, Matyáš; Zmek, Tomáš; Novotný, Jan; Průchová, Kateřina
Anotace (anglická): VERDIGRIS IS A MULTIFUNCTIONAL HOUSE ON THE CORNER OF BLANICKÁ AND SLEZSKÁ STREETS IN VINOHRADY. IT IS STANDING ON A LAND BELONGING TO THE CITY THAT HAS BEEN UNUSED FOR OVER 80 YEARS, FOR NOW IS HERE STANDING ONLY THE EXHAUST FROM THE METRO A AND TWO-STOREY OFFICES USING 90% OF THE LAND AS THEIR PARKING LOT. THE EXHAUST FROM THE METRO IS VERY IMPORTANT, BECAUSE VERDIGRISS HEAT PUMP IS CONNECTED TO IT AND TAKING ADVANTAGE OF CONSTANT TEMPERATURE OF THE AIR MOVING IN IT AND EFFECTIVELY USES IT FOR HEATING AND COOLING. THE FACADE COUNTS WITH FUTURE WEATHERING, THUS REFLECTING THE THEME OF RESILIENCE.
Effectiveness of Demand Forecasting Models in Private Slights Segment.
Přesnost modelů predikce poptávky v byznys letectví
(Czech Technical University in Prague) Cingroš, Marek; Vittek, Peter; Rybenská, Kamila
The thesis addresses the key operational aspects of the business aviation sector economic efficiency, environmental impact and aircraft utilisation. A major operational and cost challenge of this segment are flights operated without paying passengers, which arise when repositioning aircraft and generate costs without corresponding revenue. As a means of improving these aspects, the thesis proposes a predictive model able to distinguish in advance which flights will be occupied and which will not, thereby supporting the decision-making of charter operators. The problem is framed as a binary classification of flight occupancy based on flight characteristics. After reviewing suitable modelling approaches, representatives of several distinct families of classification methods were compared within a unified and methodologically sound evaluation framework that prevents overestimation of the results. It includes group-aware cross-validation respecting aircraft rotations and uncertainty quantification. Simple linear approaches proved less suitable for this purpose, whereas the random forest ensemble was able to capture the specific traffic patterns of the segment and provided a practically usable prediction. The thesis also shows that the achievable accuracy is fundamentally determined by the quality and origin of the predicted variable, not merely by the choice of model.
Opportunities for Development of Infrastructure at PRAHA/Vodochody Airport
Možnosti rozvoje infrastruktury letiště PRAHA/Vodochody
(Czech Technical University in Prague) Nosek, Jan; Lán, Sébastien; Masljaník, Tomáš
This bachelor's thesis deals with the possibilities of developing the airport infrastructure at the non-public airport Prague/Vodochody. The motivation of the work is to solve the insufficient capacity of the existing aprons and eliminate operational and safety collisions that arise from sharing the currently only apron at the airport (APN WEST) between commercial flights of Business Aviation, training aircraft of the code letter A and factory operations of Aero Vodochody. To solve this problem, a complex geometric design based on the standards of regulation L 14 - Airports and analyses of long-term air traffic predictions was created in the AutoCAD software environment. The passability of the proposed solution together with the verification of the safety envelopes of the aircraft were subsequently validated using the AviPLAN software using simulations of critical reference aircraft. The result of the work is the creation of a masterplan that introduces spatial segregation of individual operations into three main parts. A new apron with new hangars is designed for the commercial sector, an unpaved zone is designated for light aircraft operations, and engine test stands and a new apron are designed for factory operations.
Municipal Office Nová Ves
Obecní úřad "Nová ves"
(Czech Technical University in Prague, 2026-05-25) Scsevliková, Veronika; Hájek, Petr; Hulín, Jaroslav; Johanisová, Blanka
The bachelor thesis design solves a new municipal office and a family house in the historical locality of Mstětice near Hrotovice. The structures are designed as three-storey monolithic reinforced concrete systems situated on a ring-shaped platform encircling the archaeological site. The architectural concept emphasizes an airy and bright interior combining exposed concrete, grey large-format tiles, and distinctive color accents in a pastel yellow shade. The project fully respects barrier-free standards. The documentation contains an architectural study, summary reports, coordination situations, and selected drawings of the construction design.
Krasíkov - the outer bailey of Švamberg Castle on Krasíkov Hill
Krasíkov - Předhradí hradu Švamberku na vrchu Krasíkov
(Czech Technical University in Prague, 2026-05-25) Doksanský, Adam; Efler, Tomáš; Mikule, Aleš; Kantová, Olga
This bachelors thesis project concerns a new building that fills the courtyard space in the outer bailey among the ruins of the former Švamberk Castle on Krasíkov Hill. The building is designed to occupy the footprint of the former farm buildings on the south side of the courtyard. The building serves as a café, a venue for cultural events, and accommodation. It houses a large café hall, public restrooms, rooms with a total accommodation capacity of 24 beds, and a clubroom.
