A novel Quality Control Framework for the management of existing bridges
(International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering (IABSE), 2017)
The paper presents a framework to evaluate key performance indicators (KPIs) in qualitative manner. This framework is the basis for establishment of Quality Control plans for existing bridges. It addresses the dynamics of ...
Web graph analysis of the air traffic safety community
(Proceedings of the Third International Conference On Traffic and Transport Engineering (Ictte), 2016)
The structure and properties of the web graph originating from the air traffic safety community could reveal many interesting relationships which exist between key organizations in the field. Therefore, an attempt is made ...
Establishment of a Quality Control Plan - WG3 / Establishment of a Quality Control Plan - WG3
(TU1406 - Quality specifications for roadway bridges, standardization at a European level (BridgeSpec), 2018)
There is a broad consensus that the benefits of road infrastructure for the society cannot be overestimated. The investments in road infrastructure raise the growth potential of a national economy, which can be fully ...
Management of bridges with shallow foundations exposed to local scour
(CRC Press/Balkema, 2016)
The Serbian road network includes the large portion of bridges with shallow foundations that are vulnerable to local scour as tragically demonstrated during the extreme flooding in May 2014. In order to enhance preparedness ...
Modelling of bridge elements deterioration for Serbian bridge inventory
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2014)
In order to improve bridge management practice for public roads in Serbia, a deterioration model for bridge elements was developed using condition data collected over the last 20 years. The distribution of condition data ...
Landslide assessment of the Starca basin (Croatia) using machine learning algorithms
(Acta Geotechnica Slovenica, 2011)
In this research, machine learning algorithms were compared in a landslide-susceptibility assessment. Given the input set of GIS layers for the Starca Basin, which included geological, hydrogeological, morphometric, and ...
Vulnerability Assessment of Bridges Exposed to Scour
(Transportation Research Record, 2013)
To improve the allocation of funds for the maintenance and risk mitigation of transportation infrastructure, there is a dire need for a simplified, yet sufficiently accurate, methodology to estimate bridge vulnerability ...
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. ...
A sustainability analysis of an incineration project in Serbia
(Waste Management & Research, 2013)
The only option for municipal solid waste (MSW) treatment adopted so far in Serbia is landfilling. Similarly to other south-eastern European countries, Serbia is not recovering any energy from MSW. Fifty percent of electricity ...
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 ...
