COMPARISON OF SEISMIC IMPACTS THROUGH DIFFERENT REGULATIONS
This paper presents the basic principles of seismic analysis of structures according to the YU81 andEuropean norm EN 1998-1: 2004. The aim of the paper is a critical review of comparative analysisof seismic impacts in the design of building structures according to these standards. EC8 involvesseveral innovative approaches for the design and constru...

MEASURING EQUIPMENT CALIBRATION AND DETERMINATION OF THE INITIAL CALIBRATION INTERVAL
To optimize measurement procedures in laboratories, in terms of the balance between economics and risk, determination of the optimal calibration interval for measuring equipment has significant importance. This paper will show an approximate, but effective method for determination of initial calibration interval, regarding “ILAC” guidel...

STRATEGY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF 'SMART' CITIES WITH A LOOK AT THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA
Cities are the main pillars of human and economic activities and have the capacity to create positive synergies that create opportunities for development for their residents. However, they also generate a large range of problems that are increasingly complex and more difficult to solve as the city grows. The "smart" city is a newer concept introduc...

ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF GROUND TYPES ON SEISMIC RESPONSE OF MULTI-STOREY FRAME STRUCTURE
Experiences from previous earthquakes have shown that level of structural damages depends onground features where the structure is placed. Also, it is noted that reinforced concrete framestructures collapse due to the appearance of “weak floor”, especially when are founded on groundswith lower characteristics. In this paper, the seismic...

ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF CLIMATE FACTORS ON DIFFERENT CROPS USING MULTIVARIABLE ANALYSIS AND REMOTELY SENSED DATA
Phenology modeling of the most common agricultural cultures based on time series of high spatialresolution satellite imagery and vegetation indices was conducted for several crop types. This datawas used as an indicator of crops state in the multivariable correlation model as dependent variables.The influence of climate factors (temperature, air pr...

PERMANENT GNSS MONITORING OF LANDSLIDE UMKA
The Umka landslide is one of the biggest inhabited active landslides in Serbia. The Umka landslideactivity has been monitored for a period longer than 85 years, by various geotechnical and geodetictechniques. Since 2010, landslide activity has been continuously monitored by automated permanentGlobal Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) based monitori...

CONCEPT OF SOLVING THE STANDING TRAFFIC FOR THE CENTRAL CITY ZONE OF BANJA LUKA
Needs of standing traffic significantly burden the infrastructure and functioning of urbansettlements. The problem is particularly acute in non-developed and developing countries whosecities are experiencing a virtually uncontrolled growth. Control of standing traffic is also an elementof sustainable urban mobility. The paper presents the authors&r...

REVIEW OF BASIC CONCEPTS OF CONTACT MECHANICS OF FRICTIONLESS CONTACT WITH EMPHASIS ON PENALTY METHOD
Problems involving contact are of great importance in industry related to mechanical and civilengineering, but also in biomechanics and other applications. The contact interaction betweensurfaces and different bodies like in a bolted splice connection joint or area in which a tire interactswith the soil is not known a priori, leading to a nonlinear...
