SMART INFRASTRUCTURE IN THE CITIES OF THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA

Modern cities face traffic congestion, inefficient use of resources, and pollution, challenges that are intensified by urbanization. The smart city concept, based on the application of the Internet of Things (IoT), enables more efficient management of urban infrastructure and improvement of the quality of life. This paper examines the application o...

This paper presents the applicability of video-based image processing techniques for discharge estimation in a laboratory channel. Surface velocities were determined using the optical flow (OF) method, and the corresponding discharge was estimated based on these measurements. The obtained results were compared with values measured using a discharge...

Low-enthalpy subgeothermal energy represents one of the most stable and environmentally friendly renewable energy sources for heating and cooling buildings. The efficiency of these systems largely depends on the geological and hydrogeological characteristics of the soil in which the geoprobes are installed in the case of the "soil-water" system or ...

The Ibarac tunnel was excavated as part of the Rožaje bypass project in Montenegro. Nearly half of the excavation was carried out in glaciofluvial sediments consisting of brown sandy clay with gravel and rock fragments. As the original design did not anticipate tunneling through such deposits, the subsequent adoption of overly optimistic geotechnic...

In the modern world, automatic classification of buildings from orthophoto images has become critical task in various domains, including urban planning, geographic mapping and infrastructure change monitoring. Traditional building detection methods rely on manual procedures or classical image processing algorithms, which often lead to limited accur...

Nature-like fish passes are complex hydraulic–ecological systems whose performance is often assessed through fragmented monitoring approaches. This paper proposes an integrated KPI-based framework for the evaluation and classification of fish pass functionality, combining biological, hydraulic, and operational indicators within a structured m...

REASSESING MODERNISM THROUGH THE YUGOSLAV LENS

Postwar modernist urbanism remains labelled by dominant narratives that frame modernism primarily through failure and postmodern rejection. While critiques of modernist planning have largely emerged from Western European and North American contexts, this study argues that such interpretations cannot be universally applied. The paper provides new ar...

Green architecture is recognized not only for its environmental and social advantages but also for its financial and market benefits. The study combines a quantitative analysis of operational cost reduction and investment return with a qualitative assessment of property value and socio-economic impacts. Case studies and literature illustrate both m...

Urban heritage sites that have undergone radical spatial transformation present major challenges for conservation practice and urban planners. This paper examines the research methodology behind the revitalization project of the former Tutunović Podrum site in the Palilula municipality of Niš. Once the geometric and social centre of the dist...

Urban environments are increasingly affected by air pollution and urban heat island (UHI) effects, requiring integrated monitoring approaches. Within the Space It Up! project, this work presents coordinated research lines combining Earth Observation (EO) data and data-driven methods. The air quality component includes methane screening, multi-sourc...
