Pedestrian route choice in cities depends both on the overall structure of the street network and on local decisions made at points of directional change. While space syntax has shown the importance of configurational relations, wayfinding and navigation tasks point to additional cognitive mechanisms related to landmarks, route legibility, and task...

This paper analyzes the morphogenesis of suburban settlements within the periphery of Banja Luka, tracing their development from the mid-twentieth century to the present. The research identifies several phases of suburban growth shaped by social crises, migration, post-war reconstruction, and transitional conditions. Through the examination of spat...

This paper discusses implementation as a critical phase of urban planning, where adopted policies and planning intentions are translated into spatial and social outcomes. It examines the regeneration of public open space (POS) in inherited large housing estates, exploring the interaction between urban plans, urban design projects, and operational p...

Contemporary urban transformations in smaller historic cities often threaten spatial and cultural identity due to context-insensitive design. This paper explores the role of contemporary architecture in preserving and reinterpreting urban identity, using Novi Pazar and Prvomajska Street as a case study. The research combines theoretical concepts of...

This study examines student creative collectives as semi-professional formations linking architectural education and practice, focusing on micro-level team dynamics. Four APLExMANIA teams are evaluated across four domains: group formation, extra-curricular learning, visibility networks, and latent capacity. Using a joint display approach, the resea...

This paper examines the development of forms in memorial architecture, from prehistoric structures to abstract monuments. It demonstrates how basic patterns such as circular structures, pyramidal forms, and simple geometric shapes have established enduring principles in memorial design. Over time, these forms have evolved under the influence of rel...

Abrasion resistance is a critical durability parameter of foamed concrete applied in floor screeds and wear - exposed surface layers. Owing to its cellular structure, abrasion performance depends on bubble morphology, including size, distribution and uniformity. This paper presents an experimental study combining high - magnification microscopy wit...

This paper evaluates methods for estimating evapotranspiration (ET) and their influence on irrigation system design, using a case study from Modriča, Republic of Srpska. We compare empirical, physically-based, and remote sensing approaches including Thornthwaite, Hargreaves–Samani, Jensen–Haise, Linacre, McGuinness and FAO Penman–...
