Effect of Aging on the Rheological Properties of Blends of Virgin and Rejuvenated RA Binders
(RILEM International Symposium on Bituminous Materials, 2020)
The use of rejuvenators has seen a consistent increase over the years in the asphalt pavement industry. This is due to the need for maximizing the demand for incorporating a higher amount of Reclaimed ...
Performance of reinforced concrete buildings during the November 26, 2019 Albania earthquake (Mw 6.4) and December 29, 2020 Petrinja earthquake (Mw 6.4)
(3rd European Conference on Earthquake Engineering & Seismology, 2022)
Past earthquakes have affected millions of people whose lives changed within a minute, and caused damage or collapse of thousands of buildings and infrastructure systems. In many cases, earthquakes have long-term consequences. ...
Development of frequency curves for cross-laminated timber (CLT) floors using dynamic stiffness method
(European Association for Structural Dynamics, 2020)
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels have an increasing market share and extensive application in civil engineering practice, as full size walls or floor structures. CLT provides a compelling alternative to the concrete and ...
Surface drainage and aquaplaning risk in road inflection zones
(University of Zagreb Faculty of Civil Engineering Department of Transportation, 2024)
According to Federal Highway Administration, up to 70% of weather-related accidents occur
on wet pavement or in inclement weather. Consequently, surface drainage is one of the
most challenging road safety problems. ...
Attracting Private Financing to Roads: Case Study of Bosnia and Herzegovina
(American Society of Civil EngineersThe Transportation & Development Institute, 2021)
While countries worldwide have used public-private partnerships (PPP) to improve their road networks, such investments have not yet materialized in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). Attracting private financing to road projects ...
Out-of-plane behaviour of loadbearing and non-structural masonry walls during recent earthquakes
(University of Zagreb ,Faculty of Civil Engineering, 2021)
Recent earthquakes in Balkan, including the September 21 and November 26, 2020 Albania
earthquakes, March 22, 2020 Zagreb earthquake, and the December 29, 2020 Petrinja, Croatia
earthquakes had devastating consequences ...
Mixed Spearman’s Correlation Suitability for Sine-Shaped Independent Variables in Natural Sciences
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc, 2023)
Pearson’s and Spearman’s methods are most often used in popular software packages to calculate the correlation coefficient between two variables in natural sciences. The (1) difference between them is that the Pearson’s ...
Ontologies as the Key for Common Understanding of Infrastructure Assets
(Springer, 2022)
Infrastructure assets around the world are managed using Infrastructure Asset Management Systems (IAMSs). Although powerful and comprehensive, these systems poorly describe the asset’s geometry. Building Information Models ...
Combining Capital Grant and Availability Payment to Keep Toll Rates Affordable
(Department of Transportation, Faculty of Civil Engineering, University of Zagreb, Croatia, 2021)
In several countries public budgets cannot provide all the funds needed to build priority transport and other infrastructure projects that are economically justified and environmentally and socially sound. Under certain ...
Experimental investigation on the seismic performance of a multicomponent system for major-hazard industrial facilities
(Proceedings of the ASME 2021 Pressure Vessels & Piping Conference PVP 2021, 2021)
Past earthquakes demonstrated the high vulnerability of industrial facilities equipped with complex process technologies leading to serious damage of the process equipment and multiple and simultaneous release of hazardous ...
