Circular Economy in Construction and Demolition Waste Management in the Western Balkans: A Sustainability Assessment Framework
(Sustainability, 2022)
Population growth, consumerism and linear (take-make-dispose) economy models have been piling up waste for decades. The construction industry is also based primarily on linear economy models, but the good news is that most ...
Soil Erosion Assessment and Prediction in Urban Landscapes: A New G2 Model Approach
(MDPI, 2021)
Soil erosion is a global problem that negatively affects the quality of the environment, the availability of natural resources, as well as the safety of inhabitants. Soil erosion threatens the functioning of urban areas, ...
Structural Behaviour of Axially Loaded Concrete-Filled Steel Tube Columns during the Top-Down Construction Method
(Applied Sciences, 2022)
The paper discusses the structural behaviour of concrete-filled steel tube columns (CFT)
when applied to the top-down construction method as temporary internal supports for ceilings. Their
ultimate capacity to take into ...
Application of Copper Mining Waste in Radionuclide and Heavy Metal Immobilization
(Wiley-VCH GmbH, Weinheim, 2021)
Copper slag flotation tailings (CSFT), as the end waste from copper mining, are evaluated for radionuclide and heavy metal immobilization. Characterization of CSFT based on grain size and mineral composition, surface ...
Еxtended Schatten norms of random graphs and Nikiforov conjecture
(Hacettepe University, 2022)
In this paper we give a geometric mean and mean of
p-th degree of singular values for almost all graphs. We prove three
theorems about a conjecture of V. Nikiforov for Schatten p-norm
of graphs when p > 2. We prove that ...
Extension of the ζ-method for calculating deflections of two-way slabs based on linear elastic finite element analysis
(wileyonlinelibrary.comfib. International Federation for Structural Concrete, 2021)
Deflections are among the most complex aspects of reinforced concrete behavior.
Furthermore, deflection control is increasingly a governing criterion in
design, especially in the case of two-way members such as flat slabs ...
Experimental investigation of end-notched glulam beams reinforced with GFRP bars
(Springer Nature, 2022)
End-notched timber beams can have a significant decrease in load-carrying capacity as a consequence of stress concentration due to height reduction at the supports. To prevent crack opening and its propagation at the ...
The Development of Land Readjustment Models in Serbia and South-East Europe
(MDPI, 2022)
Land readjustment (LR) is increasingly applied as a tool of urban policy implementation in many countries of the world. In Serbia, LR is a new tool that is being introduced into the legal system and into planning practice, ...
Modeling Indoor Particulate Matter and Small Ion Concentration Relationship-A Comparison of a Balance Equation Approach and Data Driven Approach
(MDPI, 2020)
In this work we explore the relationship between particulate matter (PM) and small ion (SI) concentration in a typical indoor elementary school environment. A range of important air quality parameters (radon, PM, SI, ...
Sustainability assessment of recycled aggregate concrete structures: A critical view on the current state-of-knowledge and practice
(Wiley, 2023)
The environmental impacts of activities such as raw material extraction, construction
of infrastructure, and demolition, place construction as one of the
sectors that exert the highest pressures on the environment, ...
