This paper presents an integrated hydraulic, energy and economic analysis of two diversion-system alternatives for the small hydropower plant “Merćez” on the Lukovska River. Two technical concepts are considered: Alternative I – water conveyance through a pressurized steel pipeline, and Alternative II – an open-channel diver...

This study analyzes the need to transform the traditional two-dimensional cadastre in the Republic of Srpska into a multidimensional system (3D/4D). The research aims to examine the compliance of the current real estate records with the international standard ISO 19152 (LADM) and to identify the key prerequisites for introducing the third and fourt...

In practice, consideration of fire protection for structural elements mainly occurs after the adopted dimensions of sections. However, this procedure leads to not the most cost-effective solution in general. To find the optimal solution, it is necessary to apply one of the optimization methods. The presented optimization of purlins RHS cross-sectio...

A theoretical model for porous viscoelastoplastic (VEP) materials under dry conditions is examined based on the principles of mass and energy conservation using rheological-dynamical analogy (RDA). The model provides the expressions for the creep coefficient, Poisson's ratio, modulus of elasticity, damage variable and strength in the function of po...

In this paper, the authors present the application of the scaffolding technique in drawing graphs of some elementary functions. First-year students of the Faculty of Architecture, Civil Engineering, and Geodesy were tested using two exams: an entrance test and an exit test. The obtained results show whether students are more successful in drawing g...

Two approaches for beam-to-beam contact modeling are considered in the paper. The first is the classic continuum approach with point-to-point contact discretization. The other is the coarsegrained approach where the physical intermolecular fields are applied for the modeling of interaction of continuous bodies. To describe the contact, the repulsiv...

In this paper the benefits of integration of UAV-mounted (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) thermal camera and GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) are analysed. As an example we analized a district heating pipeline in a part of university campus in Novi Sad. Thermal camera mounted on UAV enables fast mapping of routes. These data are then used to detect critical...
