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...

ESTIMATION OF DISCHARGE IN A LABORATORY CHANNEL USING VIDEO PROCESSING
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...

THE INFLUENCE OF THE GEOLOGICAL AND HYDROGEOLOGY OF THE BANJALUKA AREA ON THE EFFICIENCY OF LOW ENTHALPY SUBGEOTHERMAL SYSTEMS
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 ...

FOSTERING THE INTEGRATION OF SHALLOW GEOTHERMAL SOLUTIONS FOR COOLING AND HEATING IN BUILDINGS IN THE DANUBE REGION
Shallow geothermal energy remains underutilized in the Danube Region despite its potential to reduce fossil fuel dependency and support EU climate goals. The Danube GeoHeCo project addresses this gap by fostering transnational cooperation, aiming to promote hybrid ground-source heat pump (GSHP) solutions. Key outputs include Transnational Action Pl...

CONSTRUCTION OF THE IBARAC TUNNEL AS PART OF THE ROŽAJE BYPASS PROJECT IN MONTENEGRO
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...

AN INTEGRATED KPI-BASED FRAMEWORK FOR THE EVALUATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF NATURE-LIKE FISH PASSES – A CASE STUDY OF THE FREUDENAU HYDROPOWER PLANT
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...

APPLICATION OF GROUND-PENETRATING RADAR (GPR) SCANNING TECHNOLOGY IN THE INSPECTION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES
In this paper, the authors address the inspection of concrete structures using ground-penetrating radar (GPR) scanning technology. The main idea is focused on the inspection of a concrete structure for the purpose of detecting reinforcement or objects with a circular cross-section. The analysis includes both dry and wet concrete, as well as metalli...

APPLICATION OF THE EPA SWMM SOFTWARE PACKAGE FOR HYDRAULIC FLOOD SIMULATION IN THE AREA OF KNIĆANIN AND ČENTA DURING 2019
The Knićanin–Čenta subcatchment area, located in Central Banat, is a fertile agricultural region whose water regime is significantly influenced by the water levels of the surrounding rivers—the Danube, Tisa, Begej, as well as the Karaš canal. During May and June 2019, while the TurkStream gas pipeline was under construction, the ...

THE CONCEPTION OF RAINWATER HARVESTING FOR WAREHOUSE HALL
Due to the decreasing resources of non-renewable fresh water and climate changes leading to more frequent intense rainfalls, designed solutions are desired to manage rainwater in accordance with the principles of blue-green infrastructure. This paper discusses four concepts of rainwater management for a warehouse hall using solutions such as drain...
