Experimental Investigation of Cracked End-notched Glulam Beams Repaired with GFRP bars
(Slovak Forest Products Research Institute, 2019)
In this paper, an experimental research on bending behaviour of end-notched glulam beams and their bending behaviour after repairing with glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars is presented. Altogether five glulam beams ...
Determination of pH in Powdered Concrete Samples or in Suspension
(Basel : MDPI, 2019)
Concrete is a material that is widely used by mankind. Although different deterioration mechanisms can lead to degradation of the concrete itself, reinforcement corrosion is the biggest durability issue for reinforced ...
The Extension of IFC For Supporting 3D Cadastre LADM Geometry
(MDPI, 2021)
The growth of densely populated urban areas has caused traditional cadastral registration systems to face many difficulties in representing complex and multilevel property situations on 2D maps. These challenges, combined ...
Failure Assessment of Embankment Dam Elements: Case Study of the Pirot Reservoir System
(MDPI, 2022)
The paper presents a functionality investigation of the key dam elements based on finite element analysis. A detailed analysis of filtration processes, dam strength, and the surrounding rock mass was conducted. Dam elements ...
Circle in Space—Space in Circle: A Study of Ratio between Open Space and Built-Up Area in Historical Circular Objects
(MDPI, 2021)
Many cities nowadays explore different circular designs as new sustainable city concepts in different urban aspects. The new trend, as part of the adaptation for climate change, is a strategy of increasing the number of ...
Quantifying Multi-Parameter Dynamic Resilience for Complex Reservoir Systems Using Failure Simulations: Case Study of the Pirot Reservoir System
(MDPI, 2021)
The objective of this research is to introduce a novel framework to quantify the risk of the reservoir system outside the design envelope, taking into account the risks related to flood-protection and hydro-energy generation ...

Control theory-based data assimilation for hydraulic models as a decision support tool for hydropower systems: sequential, multi-metric tuning of the controllers
(IWA Publishing, 2021)
Increasing renewable energy usage puts extra pressure on decision-making in river hydropower systems. Decision support tools are used for near-future forecasting of the water available. Model-driven forecasting used for ...
The alternatives to traditional materials for subsoil stabilization and embankments
(MDPI, 2019)
Major infrastructure projects require significant amount of natural materials, often followed by the soft soil stabilization using hydraulic binders. This paper presents the results of a laboratory study of alternative ...
Valorization of Fly Ash from a Thermal Power Plant for Producing High - Performance Self-Compacting Concrete
(Science of Sintering, 2020)
This study analyzes the feasibility of valorizing industrial by - product, fly ash from a thermal power plant as a partial replacement of mineral filler - limestone for the production of self-compacting concrete (SCC). ...
