Research of long-term behaviour of non-prestressed precast concrete beams made continuous
(Elsevier BV, 2014)
Despite the extensive analytical and numerical research carried out in the last two decades on the long-term behaviour of continuous concrete beams composed of precast units, only limited number of experimental data is ...
Spatial pattern of recent rainfall trends in Serbia (1961-2009)
(Springer Verlag, 2014)
This paper examines a spatial pattern of annual, seasonal and monthly rainfall trends in Serbia. The study used data from 63 weather stations between the period of 1961-2009. The rainfall series was examined by applying ...
GIS Based Estimation of Sediment Discharge and Areas of Soil Erosion and Deposition for the Torrential Lukovska River Catchment in Serbia
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2014)
In the present study the SHETRAN river basin modelling system was used in conjunction with Geographic Information System (GIS) to estimate potential erosion and deposition rates within the catchment and the concentrations ...
Developing Cost Estimation Models for Road Rehabilitation and Reconstruction: Case Study of Projects in Europe and Central Asia
(Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, 2014)
This paper presents the development of prediction models for the unit costs of road works that could be applied to strategic planning of road works at the network level. A specialized data set was used, which was generated ...
Time-inhomogenous Markov chains in the bridge management
(Taylor and Francis - Balkema, 2014)
Available Bridge Management Systems vary in detail, but generally they comprise a deterioration model to predict condition development and a preservation optimization model to determine the optimum preservation policy. ...
Bridge failure modes due to local scour
(Taylor and Francis - Balkema, 2014)
The scour and in particular the local scour induced by flooding events is the predominant cause of bridge collapses and thus severing the related road link with adverse consequences for the road users and the society in ...
Assessing the financial feasibility of availability payment PPP projects
(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2014)
Over the last couple of decades there has been an increased contribution of the private sector to finance infrastructure projects. However, in view of the current global financial crisis, it has become more difficult for ...
Impedance matrix for four adjacent rigid surface foundations
(European Association for Structural Dynamics, 2014)
In this paper, a frequency dependent impedance matrix for four adjacent rigid foundations resting on the viscoelastic halfspace is presented. The frequency dependent impedance matrix is developed using the integral transform ...
Multi-Temporal Analysis of Mean Annual and Seasonal Stream Flow Trends, Including Periodicity and Multiple Non-Linear Regression
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2014)
Global warming affects the hydrological cycle and the long-term water budget of river basins. Flow variations have been noticed in the Danube River Basin, especially in its south-western parts where a downward trend in ...
Operator method for calculating q symbols and their relation to weyl-wigner symbols and symplectic tomogram symbols
(Maik Nauka Publishing / Springer SBM, 2014)
We propose a new method for calculating Husimi symbols of operators. In contrast to the standard method, it does not require using the anti-normal-ordering procedure. According to this method, the coordinate and momentum ...
