Building a Sustainable Water Management System in the Republic of Serbia: Challenges and Issues
(American Chemical Society, 2015)
The Republic of Serbia is a good example of a developing country with a water management system that has not been adequately transitioned to address the need of the new socio-economic paradigm. Consequently, more than 30% ...
Application of semi-Markov decision process in bridge management
(International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering (IABSE), 2015)
The state-of-the-art Bridge Management Systems (BMSs) feature tightly coupled deterioration and preservation optimization model that enable determining the most cost-effective maintenance strategies at both the project and ...
Transformation of gravimetric geoid/quasigeoid in the system of orthometric/normal heights of Serbia leveling network
(Informatics, Geoinformatics and Remote Sensing, Vol II (Sgem 2015), 2015)
In the last few years several solutions for gravimetric geoid/quasigeoid for the territory of Serbia were determined. All the solutions meant usage of remove-restore method applying a) detailed gravimetric survey b) ...
The Analysis of Landslide Dynamics Based on Automated GNSS Monitoring-A Case Study
(Springer International Publishing, 2015)
In the past decade, there has been a gradual introduction of systematic monitoring on the largest landslides in Serbia by establishing a network of monitoring facilities. Umka landslide is complex active landslide whose ...
Difference between geoid and quasigeoid at the territory of Serbia
(Informatics, Geoinformatics and Remote Sensing, Vol II (Sgem 2015), 2015)
In this paper work differences between geoid and quasigeoid at the territory of Serbia that were modeled in two ways are shown. The first way meant usage of orthometric and normal high precision leveling heights and the ...
Simplified design recommendations for beam-to-column joints according to Eurocode
(Eighth International Conference on ADVANCES IN STEEL STRUCTURES, 2015)
The design rules in EN 1993-1-8 (the Eurocode) for beam-to-column joints in steel frames with endplate are based on the component method. Generally, three different zones of the joint are considered: tension, shear and ...
Calibration of the bolt pretension by strain gauges vs. FEA
(MASE - Macedonian Association of Structural Engineers Faculty of Civil Engineering, Skopje, Republic of Macedonia, 2015)
When applying high strength bolts in friction connections, in such case a load–bearing capacity depends on a pretension force in the bolts as well as on a friction coefficient found on friction surfaces. It is important ...
Glulam beams reinforced with internally positioned CFRP plates
(MASE - Macedonian Association of Structural Engineers, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Skopje, Republic of Macedonia, 2015)
In recent years the use of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites for strengthening and repairing structural members has significantly increased. This paper presents an experimental study carried out in order to investigate ...
Prediction of concrete dam deformation using artificial neural networks
(Civil-Comp Press, 2015)
The goal of this paper is to assess the effectiveness of using artificial neural networks in the prediction of concrete dam deformation. The aging of dams as a concrete structures poses a significant risk for the environment, ...
Network-level pavement life-cycle assessment tool
(CRC Press/Balcema Taylor & Francis Group, London, 2015)
In addition to the need to lower the overall maintenance cost while keeping their road networks in the appropriate condition, road agencies are facing even more demanding challenges, including incorporating global climate ...
