EVALUATION AND TAILORING OF GLOBAL GEOPOTENTIAL MODELS IN THE DETERMINATION OF GRAVITY FIELD IN SERBIA
Within this paper, we evaluated the quality of three Global Geopotential Models entitled: EGM96,EGM2008, and GOCO05c. The models were evaluated by using 1001 terrestrial discrete values ofheight anomalies determined by Global Navigation Satellite Systems and normal heights, which weconsidered to be true values within this research. In addition to t...

THE FLOOD THREAT MAPPING OF THE KOLUBARA RIVER BASIN USING THE LEICA ALS80HP LASER SCANNER
Every year, floods cause great damage in the Republic of Serbia. The lack of solutions for flood riskmanagement and prevention during their escalation causes great financial deficit. One of thesolutions for achieving stability in this sphere is creating a map of flood threats and risk accordingto the European Flood Directive. The task of the IPA201...

STUDY ON SEISMIC REINFORCEMENT MEASURES AND SCHEMES OF IRREGULAR FRAME STRUCTURES
The SAP2000 finite element analysis software was applied to model the original frame and carry out the elasto-plastic time-history analysis method, with an existing irregular plane framework in Tianjin as the object of the study. Buckling-Restrained Brace (BRB) damping and anti-torsional reinforcement scheme was proposed based on the analysis resul...

ASSESSMENT OF HUMAN EXPOSURE TO VIBRATION AND NOISE IN RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS
Vibration in buildings may occur from different external or internal sources. Where occupants can detect vibration in buildings, it may potentially impact their comfort or working efficiency. Some vibration sources give rise to audible effects such as structure-borne noise and airborne noise, and secondary rattling of building elements or contents....

ULTIMATE STRENGTH OF COMPRESSED SLABS AND BOX GIRDERS
A theoretical investigation into the effectiveness of a plate thickness against the ultimate strength of a compressed slabs and box girders is carried out. Series of the buckling analyses, the elastic, the viscoplastic and the ultimate strength are performed by the rheological-dynamical inelastic theory and the finite strip method on a slabs and bo...
