Břetislav Staš
Břetislav Staš is a Doctor of Natural Sciences, and an important Czech seismologist and geophysicist. He is the father of Czech actress Simona Stašová and the first husband of Czech actress Jiřina Bohdalová.
Biography
In 1951 he graduated from the Higher School of Special Education of the Czech Technical University in Prague and received the masters degree. After university he was required to have a compulsory two-year military service, where he joined the vehicle company Dobřany near Pilsen as a military driver. He gained experience by driving all kinds of cars, half-track vehicles and self-propelled drilling rigs, which was later useful for his scientific-research activities.From 1953 to 1959 he worked at Institute of Studying Coal Deposits, where he established a group for surface seismic measurements in order to refine the deposit and tectonic conditions of the coal deposit of Ostravsko Karviná mining area. He was responsible for the scientific-methodical, operational-technical and especially safety preparation. Using the methods of refraction and reflection he mapped the entire district of OKR, including its coal mines in Ostrava, Petřvald and Karviná parts of the Ostrava-Karviná mining area.
On the basis of an instruction from Federal Ministry of Fuel and Energy in 1959, together with the entire seismic group, he was transferred to the GPO Ostrava as a state delimitation, where it continued to carry out seismic measurements in the interest areas of OKR. He identified and documented the interest and structural-tectonic information necessary for gas and coal exploration. In 1962, he obtained a bachelor's technical license, authorizing him to perform and perform in-situ fireworks in situ for water, borehole and airplanes. Seismic waves cause seismic waves, which are important for surface and seismic measurements in situ. In 1964, he discovered a significant increase in the carbon monoxide layers in the southwest of the OKR, which was subsequently proven and defined as a new prospective coal deposit.
In 1965, all surface geophysical measurements in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic were again decided by the FMPE to be centralized into the national company Geofyzika - BRNO, the seismic group of GPO Ostrava. In the same year, after a successful refinement of the structural and tectonic state of the rock state in the OKR area, the GPO terminated its employment relationship with the agreement of further professional cooperation.
Between 1960 and 1966 he studied at Charles University for a long time. In 1966 he received the title RNDr. at the Faculty of Science of Charles University in geophysics.
Between 1965 and 1996, he cooperated with VVUU, where he transferred his knowledge of surface seismic into the mining environment. His task was to carry out the necessary technical and safety measures and verify that the interest coal block could be utilized and that it was not tectonically disturbed. It has built up a new mining seismic facility within the SCI, which was a completely new discipline in the CSSR. He also succeeded in specifying, physically describing, evoking and using a completely new, world-known seismic so-called transverse seam wave to which he obtained the patent. In-situ measurement results in the TSWmethod in the Czech Republic and the world have reached a high level of expertise that has enabled increased coal mining efficiency not only in the Czech Republic but also in the world.
Within the framework of the VVÚS activities, more than 120 coal blocks were measured by the TSW method and sample measurements were carried out in the coal mines of Poland, Hungary, Georgia, China and Australia. TSW-method has been awarded with a patent of the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic, USA, England, Japan, China, Poland. He won the state prize of the President of the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic, Honorable Recognition of the Tbilisi Academy in Georgia, Honorable Mention Bytom, Zlatý kahan OKR.
Since 1989, the Czech coal mining has begun to undergo major changes that have resulted in restrictions on the activities of in-situ work. Later in 1996 he retired and terminated his employment with the VVUU.
In 1996 he founded GEOSTAS, which deals with astrophysics, on a prediction prognosis of the variability of the times of the origins and manifestations of the magnitudes of the intensity of the solar eruptions and the earthquake.
