V Sloveniji imamo vzpostavljeno hidrološko mrežo vodomernih postaj, s pomočjo katere spremljamo razmere v vodotokih skoraj v realnem času. Sočasno pa se na vodomernih postajah izvajajo tudi občasne meritve pretokov za potrebe izdelave in posodabljanje pretočnih krivulj. Ker se v zadnjih letih za ta namen uporabljajo sodobni akustični merilniki, nam le-ti omogočajo tudi hkratno merjenje geometrije prečnega prereza. V nalogi smo predstavili obdelavo podatkov meritev prečnih profilov in prikazali njihovo spreminjanje za sedem vodomernih postaj na reki Savinji. Primerjali smo spremenljivost površin prečnih profilov glede na geodetski posnetek prečnega profila obravnavane vodomerne postaje in nadmorske višine nivelete dna v izbranih točkah znotraj prečnega profila vodomerne postaje. Rezultati analiz prikazujejo nenehno spreminjanje prečnih profilov zaradi odlaganja in odnašanja sedimentov. Ugotovili smo, da je večina največjih sprememb posledica odlaganja materiala. Vseeno pa dobljeni rezultati kažejo, da se struga Savinje v obravnavanih prečnih profilih dolgoročno gledano vseeno poglablja. Slovenia has a contemporary hydrological network of water gauging stations that monitor the situation of the watercourse in near real-time. At the same time, the occasional measurements of discharge are conducted at these stations in order to create and update rating curves. Modern acoustic gauges which have been used in recent years also enable the simultaneous measurement of the geometry of the cross-section. The present work presents the data analysis of the measurements of cross-sections and the representation of the changes in seven water gauging stations on Savinja river. We compared the variability of the surface of cross-sections with respect to the geodetic image of the river profile of a chosen gauging station was compared and the elevation of the river bottom level at points within the cross-section of the water gauging station. The results of the analysis show constant changes of the cross-section due to the erosion and accumulation of sediments. We found that most of the largest changes are due to material deposition. However, the obtained results show that the Savinja riverbed is still deepening in a long-term perspective.

Leta 1994 se je v Južnoafriški republiki končala doba apartheida. Eden glavnih ciljev nove demokratično izvoljene vlade in njenega predsednika Nelsona Mandele je bil, po desetletjih hudih krivic in delitev v državi, narodna sprava. Ta diplomska naloga skuša prikazati najpomembnejše korake in dejanja, ki so jih Južnoafričani s svojimi voditelji naredili v tej smeri v času Mandelove vlade. Najprej sem predstavila, na kakšen način se je to prizadevanje odrazilo v formiranju in delu vlade narodne enotnosti in v novi ustavi ter zakonodaji Južnoafriške republike. Predstavila sem tudi delo Komisije za resnico in spravo, ki je bila ustanovljena z namenom, da razišče kršitve človekovih pravic v času apartheida, zbere pričevanja žrtev in storilcev, poskrbi za rehabilitacijo žrtev in reparacije, obravnava prošnje za amnestije in z javnimi obravnavami po celi državi spodbudi proces sprave med državljani. Pisala sem tudi o nekaterih najodmevnejših (simboličnih) spravnih dejanjih, ki so bila v Južnoafriški republiki storjena v teh petih letih. V zadnjem poglavju sem ugotovila, da je Mandelova vlada postavila pomemben temelj za proces narodne sprave, ki pa še vedno traja. The epoch of South African apartheid ended in 1994. One of the main goals of the new democratically elected government and its president, Nelson Mandela, was national reconciliation after decades of severe injustice and division in the country. This diploma dissertation seeks to show the most important steps and actions South Africans and their leaders took during the Mandela government. Firstly, I presented how this effort was reflected in the formation and work of the Government of National Unity, in the new Constitution and Legislation of the South African Republic. I also discussed the work of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which was set up to investigate human rights violations during apartheid, collect victims and perpetrators testimonies, rehabilitate victims and make reparations, deal with amnesty applications and promote a process of reconciliation between citizens through public hearings. Lastly, I will address some of the monumental (symbolic) South African acts of reconciliation during those five years. In the last chapter, I found that the Mandela government had laid an important foundation for the process of national reconciliation, which is still ongoing.

Parodontalne bolezni so skupina najbolj razširjenih obolenj ustne votline. Ena izmed invazivnejših oblik parodontalnih bolezni je agresivni parodontitis. Pri pacientih z agresivnim parodontitisom so določili izrazito povišano število bakterije Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. a.), ki s svojimi viruletnimi faktorji negativno vpliva na gostiteljsko tkivo. Z bioinformatskim orodji so nedavno ustvarili seznam proteinov seva A. a. D7S, ki naj bi interagirali z molekulami mRNA v človeških celicah. Iz pripravljenega seznama smo izbrali 6 proteinov (PNPaza, DnaK, F0F1 ATP sintaza, RPS1, TadG in ThrRS) in preverili njihov vpliv na rast kvasovke Saccharomyces cerevisiae, v katere smo predhodno transformirali pripravljene plazmidne kostrukte z genom za izbrani protein pod kontrolo galaktoznega promotorja. Ob prisotnosti galaktoze kot edinega vira sladkorja v gojišču, smo tako sprožili izražanje izbranih genov v kvasovki. Ugotovili smo, da sprožitev gena za PNPazo ali za različico tega proteina, ki ima na amino terminalnem koncu pripeto značko 3x-FLAG, inhibira rast kvasovke. Uspešno smo prepoznali tudi ključni aminokislinski ostanek proteina PNPaza, saj ob spremembi aminoksiline na mestu 133 varianta proteina ne deluje inhibitorno na rast kvasovke. Pripravili smo tudi plazmidni konstrukt za s 3x-FLAG tagom označenim proteinom PNPaza pod kontrolo nativnega promotorja bakterije A. a. Verjamemo, da bodo slednji konstrukt in v nalogi pridobljeni rezultati omogočili nadaljnje raziskave, ki bodo preučile vpliv proteina PNPaza na humane celice. Periodontal diseases are the group of the most common diseases of the oral cavity. One of the more invasive forms of periodontal disease is aggressive periodontitis. In patients with aggressive periodontitis, a significantly increased number of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. a.) has been found, which has a negative effect on the host tissue with its virulence factors. Using bioinformatics tools, they recently compiled a list of A. a. D7S proteins that are believed to interact with mRNA molecules in human cells. From the prepared list we selected 6 proteins (PNPase, DnaK, F0F1 ATP synthase, RPS1, TadG and ThrRS) and tested their influence on Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts, into which we transformed plasmid constructs with genes for the selected protein. Expression of the selected protein was induced when yeast carrying such plasmid construct was grown in medium containing galactose as the sole carbon source. We found that the growth of transformants with induced PNPase gene expression was completely inhibited. The same result was achieved by testing the effect of PNPase to which the 3x-FLAG tail was attached, which will be useful for further research. We have also successfully identified a key catalytic residue in PNPase, that when mutated, precluded the PNPase inhibitory effect. In addition, we also prepared a plasmid construct enabling the 3x-FLAG tagged PNPase expression from its native promoter in A. a. We anticipate that the results obtained in this study will provide a solid basis for further research on the effect of A. a. PNPase on the human cells.

V diplomskem delu je predstavljen vpliv jeklenega daljnovodnega stebra na električno polje v okolici. S pomočjo programskega orodja OPERA 3D, ki temelji na metodi končnih elementov, so opravljeni 3D numerični izračuni električnega polja v okolici daljnovodnega stebra. V odvisnosti od geometrije daljnovodnega stebra, lastnosti materialov in od faznega kota napetosti je predstavljena porazdelitev električne poljske jakosti in električnega potenciala v okolici daljnovodnega stebra. The bachelor’s thesis presents the influence of the steel tower transmission line on the electric field in the surrounding area. With the help of the OPERA 3D software based on the finite element method, 3D numerical calculations of the electric field in the surrounding area of the transmission line are performed. Depending on the geometry of the transmission line, material properties and the phase angle of the voltage, the distribution of the electric field strength and the electric potential in the surroundings of the transmission line is presented.

Namen magistrskega dela je bilo ugotoviti, kako se potreba po dražljajih povezuje z zadovoljstvom s partnerskim odnosom, nezvestobo, dolžino partnerske zveze in starostjo. Prav tako smo želeli preveriti, ali obstajajo med spoloma razlike v višini potrebe po dražljajih in kakšne so. Pri empiričnem delu smo uporabili Lestvico nezvestobe (IS), Lestvico iskanja dražljajev (SSS-V) in Lestvico zadovoljstva s partnerskim odnosom (KMSS). Celoten vprašalnik je izpolnilo 756 udeležencev, od tega 565 (75 %) žensk in 191 (25 %) moških. Ugotovili smo, da med moškimi in ženskami obstajajo statistično pomembne razlike v višini potrebe po dražljajih, in sicer imajo moški v povprečju višjo potrebo po dražljajih kot ženske. V naši raziskavi se je pokazala statistično pomembna negativna povezava med potrebo po dražljajih in starostjo ter potrebo po dražljajih in dolžino zveze. Zanimalo nas je tudi, ali so osebe z višjo potrebo po dražljajih k nezvestobi bolj nagnjene in manj zadovoljne z odnosom, a na podlagi naše analize tega nismo mogli potrditi. Kot omejitev naše raziskave bi lahko navedli nizko število udeležencev, starejših od 56 let, zaradi česar nismo dobili celostne slike o spremembah v višini potrebe po dražljajih z leti, prav tako pa je bilo število moških udeležencev v primerjavi z ženskami bistveno nižje. The purpose of this master's thesis was to find out, how is the sensation seeking associated to relationship satisfaction, infidelity, length of romantic partnership and age. We also wanted to check if there are existing gender differences in level of sensation seeking and what kind are they. In the empirical part, we used the infidelity scale, sensation seeking scale - V and Kansas Marital satisfaction scale. 756 participants have completed the whole questionnaire, of whom 565 (75%) were women and 191 (25%) were men. We found that there are statistically important differences in level of sensation seeking between men and women, with men in average having higher need of sensation seeking than women. In our study there was a statistically important negative correlation showed between the sensation seeking and age and also between sensation seeking and length of romantic partnership. We were also interested in whether people with higher need of sensation seeking are more prone to infidelity and less satisfied with the relationship, but based on our analysis we weren’t able to confirm that. As a limitation of our research, we could indicate a low number of participants over the age of 56, which resulted in incomplete picture of the changes in level of sensation seeking with age, additionally number of male participants was considerably lower compared to female.

Pri športnem plezanju se v zadnjem času zaradi povečanega zanimanja za ukvarjanje s tem športom pojavljajo tudi poškodbe. Prevladujejo kronične poškodbe, predvsem zgornjih okončin. Akutnih poškodb je relativno malo. Z deskriptivno metodo smo zbrali in preučili domačo ter tujo literaturo na področju športnih poškodb in preobremenitvenih sindromov zgornjih okončin. Ti podatki so nam skupaj z lastnimi izkušnjami s področja treniranja mladih športnih plezalcev pomagali priti do končnih zaključkov. V prvem delu diplomskega dela smo zbrali informacije o najpogostejših poškodbah na področju zapestij, dlani in prstov. Te poškodbe so ruptura krožnih vezi prstov, sindrom karpalnega kanala, tendonitis in tendosinovitis, preskakujoči prst in viseči prst. Pojasnili smo vzroke za nastanek posameznih poškodb, postopke zdravljenja posameznih poškodb. Velik poudarek dajemo preventivnim dejavnikom, ki lahko v veliki meri pripomorejo, da do poškodb sploh ne pride. Najpomembnejši preventivni dejavniki so pravilno ogrevanje in ohlajanje v vadbeni enoti, pravilna ciklizacija treningov, ustrezno mišično ravnovesje in čim bolj optimalna tehnika plezanja. V drugem delu diplomskega dela pa smo prikazali primer vadbe po poškodbi, ki nas učinkovito pripravi na varno vrnitev v proces treninga. Vadbo po poškodbi smo razdelili na tri dele – prvi del zajema vaje za pridobivanje obsega gibanja, drug del zajema vaje za povrnitev moči, tretji del pa zajema vrnitev v specifične športnoplezane obremenitve. Pravilno začrtan, individualno prilagojen in strokovno voden program kineziologa nam omogoča učinkovito ter varno vrnitev v trenažni proces. In last few years sport climbing has become very popular. Every year more people are getting involved with this sport and there are also injuries. Chronic injuries are the dominating ones, particular in upper extremities. Acute injuries are relatively few. With the descriptive method we collected and analysed domestic and foreign literature about sport injuries and overuse syndroms of upper extremities. These data and our own experience in coaching youth sport climbers helped us to get the final conclusions. In the first part of this thesis we have collected information about most common injuries in the wrist, hand and finger area. These injuries are ruptures od circular ligaments of the fingers, carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis and tendosynovitis, trigger finger and hanging finger. We explained the causes for the occurrence of each of the injuries and treatment proceses. Preventive factors are very important, such as properly warming up before training and cooling down after it, corresponding training plan, appropriate muscular balance and a good climbing technique. In the second part of the thesis, we showed an example of a workout, which we can do after the injury. It will effectively prepare us for a safe return in the process of training. We divided the workout into three parts – the first one includes exercises for getting back the range of motion, the second part are exercises for strength and the third part covers the return back into specific sport climbing training. Individually constructed training plan after injury, which is guided by a kinesiologist allows us to safely return back to our normal training routine.

V delu so predstavljeni postopki za kalibracijo nizkofrekvenčnih (10 Hz - 20 kHz) merilnikov električnega polja do 2 kV/m. Sprva predstavimo merilni sestav, ki smo ga uporabili za kalibracijo, ter naštejemo in ovrednotimo vse vire negotovosti, ki pripomorejo k skupni negotovosti kalibracije. Nadaljujemo s kalibracijo frekvenčnega odziva in linearnosti izbranega merilnika električnega polja. V zadnjem delu prikažemo še nekatere druge verifikacijske teste in določimo maksimalne vrednosti električnega polja, ki jih lahko generiramo z uporabljeno opremo pri določeni frekvenci. Pri analizi merilne negotovosti smo ugotovili, da k skupni merilni negotovosti največ prispevajo negotovost zaradi prisotnosti nosilca, negotovost zaradi nehomogenosti električnega polja in negotovost merjenja razmika med elektrodama. Pri nizkih frekvencah (f < 20 Hz) ima negotovost tipa A merjenca prav tako nezanemarljiv vpliv.

Neoliberalna politika, ki je v začetku sedemdesetih let prejšnjega stoletja postala vodilna politika in ekonomska doktrina, ima danes še vedno zelo močan vpliv na regulacijo ekonomskega, finančnega in pravnega sistema. Svetovna gospodarska in finančna kriza, ki se je začela leta 2007, je pustila svoj pečat v skoraj vseh državah, ki so morale zaradi poslabšanja javno-finančne slike izpeljati vrsto ukrepov za konsolidacijo javnih financ, pri čemer je privatizacija samo eden izmed načinov neoliberalne politike za reševanje finančne krize ter del politike upravljanja z državnimi oz. kapitalskimi deleži. Ko govorimo o privatizaciji, govorimo o javni politiki, ki presega meje javnofinančnih in gospodarskih posledic, saj ima tudi številne druge. Javni interes v postopkih privatizacije ima pomembno težo, a je ta omejen tudi z določili prava Evropske unije, saj mora prodajalec državnega premoženja – javni subjekt ravnati tako, kot bi ravnal skrben zasebni vlagatelj ob enakih tržnih pogojih in voditi postopek za t.i.«aid free« privatizacijo. Ob tem je pomembno izpostaviti, da privatizacija poleg pravil o državnih pomočeh trči tudi ob pravila, ki urejajo položaj zaposlenih v privatizacijskih postopkih (na privatizacijo vplivajo tudi pravila o prevzemih in svobodni konkurenci, vendar teh pravil magistrska naloga ne obravnava). Postopek privatizacije ter pravila o državnih pomočeh ne bi smeli biti argument za nevključevanje in izločanje zaposlenih iz postopkov prodaje kapitalskih deležev v lasti države in za krčenje njihovih pridobljenih pravic. Za delavca je bistveno vprašanje ohranitev njegovih pravic, predvsem varnost njegove zaposlitve, saj prenehanje pogodbe o zaposlitvi zanj predstavlja kratenje njegove socialne in ekonomske varnosti in pomeni (praviloma) tudi izgubo glavnega vira dohodka za preživljanje njega in njegove družine. A ta interes zaposlenih trči ob interes kupca in/ali prodajalca v privatizacijskih poslih, kajti prav svoboda določanja pogojev o uporabi delovne sile ter prilagajanje potrebam poslovanja je tista fleksibilnost, ki jo zagovorniki opravljanja dejavnosti zaradi pridobivanja dobička potrebujejo in zagovarjajo. Neoliberalna politika zadnjih let je stremela k čim večji fleksibilizaciji delovnega prava, tudi zaradi vedno večje konkurenčnosti, ki pa ga je dodatno intenziviral prav proces globalizacije. V postopku privatizacije tako pride do kolizije interesov prodajalcev in kupcev državnega premoženja z interesi zaposlenih, ki želijo čim večjo varnost ohranitve obstoječih pravic. Kot sem navedla, so po sedanji ureditvi državne pomoči tudi neposreden del privatizacijske politike. Pravila državnih pomoči po eni strani vzpodbujajo utrjevanje regionalnih gospodarstev, saj so državne pomoči dodeljene neposredno posamičnemu podjetju, spet po drugi strani pa posegajo v tržno konkurenco ter tržna razmerja, zaradi česar lahko ovirajo tudi delovanje notranjega trga EU. Ob navedenem moram izpostaviti, da je pri prodaji državnega premoženja bistvena presoja pogoja gospodarske prednosti za vsaj eno podjetje, pri čemer pride do uporabe testa skrbnega zasebnega vlagatelja, ki želi pri prodaji doseči najvišjo možno ceno. V tej povezavi moram izpostaviti, da takšno stališče temelji tudi na argumentu varstva konkurence. V nasprotnem primeru bi privatizacija družbe, ki je v državni lasti, lahko vsebovala nedovoljene državne pomoči, v kolikor kupec ali prodajalec pridobita ugodnosti in koristi, ki jih pri siceršnji prodaji med zasebnimi subjekti ne bi dosegla. V postopkih privatizacije je pomemben tudi vpliv sodelovanja delavcev pri upravljanju kot tistega instrumenta, s katerim zaposleni sodelujejo v teh postopkih. Prodajalci oz. upravljavci državnega premoženja bi morali zasledovati cilj in načela družbeno odgovornega ravnanja, delavci, njihovi predstavniki ter socialni partnerji pa bi morali biti proaktivni in v največji možni meri sodelovati v teh postopkih preko institutov participativnega managementa. The neoliberal policy, which in the early seventies became the leading policy and economic doctrine still today has a very strong influence on the regulation of economic, financial and legal system. The global economic and financial crisis, which began in 2007, has left its mark on almost all countries that have had, due to the deterioration of public financial picture, obligation to carry out a series of measures to consolidate public finances. Privatization is only one part of neoliberal policies to address the financial crisis and a part of the management policy of the state and capital shares. When we talk about privatization we are discussing public policy that goes beyond fiscal and economic consequences. Public interest in the process of privatization has significant weight, although I have to point out it is also limited by provisions in European Union law. The seller of state property - a public entity must act as a diligent private investor in equal market conditions and lead the process of so-called "aid-free" privatization. It is also important to point out that privatization of state aid rules collides with the rules governing the position of employees in the privatization process (privatization also affect rules on takeovers and free competition, but these rules are not the subject of the master’s thesis). The privatization process with rules on state aid should not be an argument for non-integration and elimination of employees in the processes with contraction of their acquired rights. For workers there are crucial issues in preservation of their rights, in particular the security of their jobs, since the termination of the employment contract represents a deprivation of their social and economic security and usually means the loss of their main source of income. Interests of employees collide with the interests of the buyer and / or seller in privatization transactions, since the freedom to set conditions for the workforce and adapting the needs of business is the flexibility that proponents the activity for profit needs. The neoliberal policy in recent years was striving in maximizing the flexibility of labor law, due to increasing competition which was also further intensified with the process of globalization. In the privatization process there is a huge conflict of interests on one hand sellers and buyers of the state assets and on the other the interests of employees who want to maximize the security of maintaining existing rights. As I have indicated, state aids are part of the privatization public policy. State aid rules on one hand, encourage the consolidation of regional economies, since state aid is awarded directly to an individual undertaking, but on the other hand, they interfere with market competition and market conditions as they can also impede the functioning of the EU internal market. Having said that, I need to point out that in the sale of state assets there is essential to assess conditions of potential economic advantage for at least one company, whereby it comes in use the test of prudent private investor who wants the sale to achieve the highest possible price. Related to this, I must emphasize that this position is also based on the argument of competition law. The privatization of the company that gives economic advantage to at least one company contains illegal state aid if the buyer or seller obtains advantages or benefits that in otherwise normal sales between private operators would not be achieved. The process of privatization is also an important issue for workers' participation and their influence in management as an instrument with which employees can participate in these processes. Vendors or. managers of state assets should pursue the objective and principles of socially responsible behavior, however, workers, their representatives and the social partners, should also be proactive and participate in these processes through institutes of worker participation.

Magistrsko delo obravnava prosto zemljišče pod Pekrsko gorco. Gre za zemljišče v mestnem predelu Pekre, ki je večinoma obdano z enodružinskimi objekti. V bližini samega zemljišča je večji trgovski center Qlandia, na južnem robu pa je predvidena obvoznica, ki se je pri sami zasnovi tudi upoštevala. Trajnostna stanovanjska cona je zasnovana kot hibridni kare, v katerem sta stanovanjski in javni program. Slednji je zastopan predvsem v 11-nadstropni stolpnici, ki služi tudi kot nekakšna dominanta, po kateri se lahko orientiramo. Ostalim objektom, ki so različnih višin, se zaradi velikih steklenih površin in same razporeditve objektov ter stanovanj razprostira pogled na Pohorje in Pekrsko gorco, kar doda stanovanjem dodatno vrednost. Glavni koncept trajnostne stanovanjske cone poleg vseh trajnostnih vidikov je, da je celota kot skupek različnih objektov, ki so povezani s tako imenovano »cesto«. S to cesto pridobimo skupne površine, svetlobo v notranjih prostorih in predvsem drugačnost. Drugačna je tudi cona kot celota, predvsem v urbanistični in tlorisni zasnovi. Takšna trajnostna stanovanjska cona dvigne raven kakovosti večstanovanjske gradnje ter udobja in življenja v nekakšni skupnosti v samem predelu Pekre in tudi Mariboru. This Master’s thesis discusses the vacant lot under the Pekrska gorca hill. The lot is located in the Pekre town district, and surrounded mostly by single-family houses. In the vicinity of the lot, there is a large shopping centre Qlandia, and a bypass at the south margin is planned which we considered in the design. The sustainable residential zone is designed as a hybrid residential area, in which both residential and public program are included. The latter is represented mainly in the eleven storey block of flats, which serves as a dominant feature for orientation. Due to large glass surfaces and the arrangement, the buildings, which are of different heights, and flats have a view of Pohorje and Pekrska gorca hill, which gives them additional value. The main concept of the sustainable residential zone, aside from all the sustainability aspects, is that it is a whole of different facilities connected with a so-called “street”. With this street we gain common areas, light in the internal areas, and mainly distinctiveness. The zone as a whole is also distinctive, mainly in its urban design and ground floor design. The sustainable residential zone raises the quality of apartment buildings and also the level of comfort and quality of life in a community in the Pekre district and the town of Maribor.

V magistrskem delu se ukvarjamo s problemom izločanja območja dokumenta iz digitalnih posnetkov zajetih v nekontroliranem okolju. Rezultat dela sta namizna ter mobilna aplikacija, ki omogočata določitev in izločitev območja dokumenta z različnimi metodami. Za rešitev problema določitve implementiramo tri različne metode računalniškega vida, in sicer določitev z barvnim filtriranjem, določitev z izračunom povprečne razlike med svetlostjo regij in določitev s pomočjo Houghove transformacije. Delovanje implementiranih metod preverimo na lastni bazi digitalnih posnetkov, vzpostavljeni z digitalizacijo več dokumentov v nekontroliranih razmerah z različnimi mobilnimi napravami. Testna baza vključuje posnetke z izrazito kot tudi neizrazito mejo HDB. V rezultatih testiranja se kljub relativno majhni testni bazi v primeru metode z barvnim filtriranjem in metode, bazirane na Houghovi transformaciji pokaže vzorec manj uspešne določitve območja na posnetkih, kjer je dokument obdan z neizrazito mejo HDB. Bolje se obnese metoda, ki opravlja določitev območja na osnovi izračuna povprečne razlike med svetlostjo regij, saj se je na testnih posnetkih z neizrazito mejo HDB obnesla celo bolje kot na posnetkih z izrazito mejo HDB. V delu dodatno opredelimo vpliv prostorske ločljivosti posnetkov in vpliv uporabe bliskavice ob zajemu na uspešnost določitve območja dokumenta posamezne metode. V implementacijo poleg pristopov za določanje in izločanje vključimo najpogostejše operacije, ki omogočajo manipuliranje z izločenim območjem dokumenta. In this thesis, we are dealing with the problem of document region extraction from digital images, which might have been taken in uncontrolled environment. Thesis’s results are presented via implementation of two applications, one for mobile and one for desktop platform. Both applications enable detection and extraction of document region with several methods. To solve the problem, we implemented three different computer vision methods, namely the detection using colour filtering, detection based on calculating the average difference between the brightness of the regions and detection based on Hough transform. Validation of implemented methods has been done with establishing an own document image database, which includes digital images of several documents, taken in various uncontrolled conditions with a variety of mobile devices. The database includes document images with intensive and non-intensive document border. Despite relatively small database, the test results have shown that colour filtering and Hough transform methods are less reliable than the detection based on average brightness difference calculation, especially when comes to document images with non-intensive document border. The thesis further defines the impact of image spatial resolution and the impact of flash on the reliability for each implemented method. Additionally the most common methods for manipulation and improvement of extracted document region are presented.

Naše življenje danes je na vsakem koraku prepleteno s fosilnimi gorivi. Iz njih namreč pridobimo večino energije, ki je potrebna za ogrevanje naših stanovanj, razsvetljavo, kuhanje, delovanje televizij, računalnikov itd. Fosilna goriva poganjajo tudi naše osebne avtomobile, industrijo in promet. Kako dolgo pa bomo nekatera fosilna goriva še lahko uporabljali pa je vprašanje, ki se v zadnjem času vse bolj pogosto pojavlja. Uporaba fosilnih goriv namreč pušča velike posledice na okolju v katerem živimo. Poleg tega pa fosilnih goriv v naravi začenja primanjkovati. Logistika je prav tako močno odvisna od nafte oz. fosilnih goriv. Te odvisnosti se skušamo rešiti na konkretnem primeru logistične verige Pivovarne Laško, d.d. V tej verigi skušamo čim bolj zmanjšati porabo nafte in zmanjšati emisije. Predstavimo tudi možne alternative nafte in motorja z notranjim izgorevanjem, opišemo scenarije, ki lahko pripeljejo do konca naftne dobe in dogodke po koncu naftne dobe. Fossil fuels are a constant companion in our everyday lives. They are used to generate most of the energy for heating, lighting, cooking, and running TVs, computers, etc. Almost all of our industry and means of transportation, including cars, run on fossil fuels. But fossil fuels will not last forever, so it is only a question of time before some of them are completely used up. Another issue with fossil fuels is pollution. Logistics is very fossil-fuel (i.e. oil) dependable as well. In our thesis we will try to demonstrate and solve this problem with a concrete example, namely the logistics chain of the Pivovarna Laško brewery. We try to reduce oil usage and emissions in the chain, and present possible alternatives to oil and the internal combustion engine. We also try to depict scenarios that could bring an end to the oil-era and envision what will come next.

Po svetu se zadnje čase gradijo pretežno konstrukcije iz armiranega betona. Beton kot gradbeni material se uporablja že stoletja, saj ga je možno proizvesti enostavno in poceni. Danes je tako razširjen, da ga uporabljamo pri industrijski, poslovni in tudi stanovanjski gradnji. V diplomskem delu je opisan razvoj betona vse od začetka razvoja do betona, ki ga poznamo in uporabljamo danes. Opisan je tudi kot gradbeni material s svojimi sestavnimi komponentami. Podan je zgodovinski pregled pomembnejših stanovanjskih objektov po svetu. Poleg svetovnih objektov pa so predstavljeni tudi stanovanjski objekti v Mariboru, ki so nastali po letu 2000. Diplomsko delo prav tako vsebuje analizo poslovno-stanovanjskega objekta Maistrovega dvora, ki je delo arhitekta Janka J. Zadravca. In the world today mostly constructions made out of reinforced concrete are built. Concrete as a building material has been used for centuries, as it can be manufactured easily and cheaply. Nowadays it is so widely spread that it is used in industrial, business, and residential construction. In my diploma paper the development of concrete from its beginnings to the concrete as we know and use today is described. It is also described as a construction material with its constituent components. The historical overview of important residential buildings in the world is introduced. Beside those buildings important residential buildings in Maribor that were built after the year 2000 are introduced. The diploma paper also contains the analysis of business-residential building Maistrov dvor, which is the work of the architect Janko J. Zadravec.
