1. Low level measurements for evaluation of magnetic field effect to human body

   The topic is divided into two sections. Within the first one, it is necessary to propose a comprehensive system methods and metrology for low-level magnetic measurements with respect to highly disturbed environments. It is suitable to focus on methods for achieving the S/N ratio <0.05 and enabling signal reconstruction. The proposed method should be used to describe a methodology for the verification of accuracy and repeatability of the evaluated results. Within the second section, the researcher is expected is carry out the description of the human body, its characteristics, and response to magnetic field changes. The set of appropriate tools comprises both deterministic and stochastic methods with the latest mathematical apparatus.

2. Mapping of an electrical conductivity based on impedance tomography

   Electrical properties of materials we can obtain using different variants of impedance tomography algorithms. The input data are the measure data U-I (voltage-current) or B-I (magnetic field - current). The work is oriented to determine the sensitivity of reconstruction algorithms to input data obtained using different measurement ways. The aim of the research work is to find and experimentally verify the stable and not time-consuming algorithms with respect to required accuracy.

3. Modeling and experiments with tuned nanostructures and resonators in the THz domain

   In the Czech Republic, the investigation of sophisticated nanostructures constitutes one of the current scientific activities within basic research. The thesis presents various problems of the design, modelling, and experiments related to tuned nanostructures in the range of 10-500THz. The topic can be classified into three main areas. In terms of the content, the first of these fields is focused on the numerical modelling of structures based on real properties of nanomaterials. The second area comprises the design of methods and methodology for the verification of the experiments, the measurement, and the assumptions connected with the theoretical model. Through modelling via the finite element and the finite volume methods (realized using programs such as ANSYS, ANSOFT, or MAXWELL), a model of the mass dynamics behaviour is designed. The third field is closely related to technology; thus, the anticipated activities involve mainly the research of technologies to enable realization of the designed structures. In the experimental part of this area, practical feasibility of the structures is to be verified. The results are expected to support the investigation into special tuned periodic structures. The topics can be solved separately; the applicant will not be required to examine all the above-specified fields.

8. Numerical models of stochastic problems

   In the process of modelling, large-scale problems consisting in multiparametric tasks occur, featuring explicit description of the minimum of parameters. Numerical modelling offers certain approaches to such models. There exist two basic concepts, which can be characterized as deterministic and non-deterministic processes. Both these approaches are applicable in the numerical modeling of large-scale problems associated with complex tasks solved in electrical engineering or electronic and electromagnetic fields. When suitably formulated, these concepts become powerful tools in the scientific approach to basic and applied research. The aim of the doctoral thesis is to describe and define the two above-specified concepts and to experimentally verify the properties of the models. The testing will be realized on problems related to nanomaterial models.

The aim is to propose a stochastic model and to verify, using a simple example, the dynamic parameters for the electric discharge; in this context, the related effects will be evaluated utilizing a microscopic model of matter
