On the Wind Energy Resource above High-Rise Buildings
(MDPI, 2020)
One of the main challenges of urban wind energy harvesting is the understanding of the flow characteristics where urban wind turbines are to be installed. Among viable locations within the urban environment, high-rise ...
Definition of Circulation Conditions and Groundwater Genesis of the Complex Krupaja Hydrogeological Karst System (Eastern Serbia)
(MDPI, 2023)
The complex Krupaja karst system, located in Serbia, which consists of a strong karst spring, a thermal karst spring, and a borehole that captures sub-thermal waters, has been studied. A phenomenon which gives rise to the ...
Selection of wastewater treatment technology: AHP method in multi-criteria decision making
(MDPI, Basel, Switzerland, 2023)
Wastewater treatment is a process that reduces pollution to those quantities and concentrations at which purified wastewater is no longer a threat to human and animal health and safety and does not cause unwanted changes ...
Framework for Dynamic-Stiffness-Based Free Vibration Analysis of Plate-Like Structures
(Hindawi Limited, 2019)
A framework for free vibration analysis of plate-like structures is presented in the paper. Based on the previously formulated dynamic stiffness elements, FREEVIB object-oriented software in Python environment has been ...
Performance Evaluation of Asphalt Mixtures Containing Different Proportions of Alternative Materials
(MDPI, 2023)
With the increasing scarcity and cost of virgin materials for asphalt mixtures, the exploration of alternative components has intensified. Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), crumb rubber (CR), steel slag (SS), and waste ...
Adriseismic Methodology for Expeditious Seismic Assessment of Unreinforced Masonry Buildings
(Buildings, 2023)
The paper describes a novel Adriseismic method for exp4editious assessment of seismic risk associated with unreinforced masonry buildings. The methodology was developed for the Adriseismic project of the Interreg ADRION ...
Hydrodynamic Loads in a Stilling Basin of a Converging Stepped Spillway: An Experimental Study
(MDPI, 2023)
This paper presents a methodology for estimation of hydrodynamic loads acting on the bottom and at the walls of a stilling basin of a stepped chute with converging walls, based on the pressure measurements at the selected ...
An Adaptive Section Discretization Scheme for the Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Steel Frames
(Journal of Structural Engineering, 2023)
The paper presents an adaptive section discretization scheme for the inelastic response analysis of structural members with cross sections that can be decomposed into rectangular and circular subdomains. Each subdomain can ...
Long-Term Thermal Stress Analysis and Optimization of Contraction Joint Distance of Concrete Gravity Dams
(MDPI, 2022)
Results of the conducted research aiming to demonstrate the methodology of optimization of dam monolith length (distance between contraction joints), through monitoring the thermal tensile stresses during construction and ...
Multivariate and multi-scale generator based on non-parametric stochastic algorithms
(Journal of Hydroinformatics, 2019)
A method for generating combined multivariate time series at multiple locations and at different time scales is presented. The procedure is based on three steps: first, the Monte Carlo method generation of data with ...
