VALUES OF INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE FROM THE SOCIALIST PERIOD IN A POST-SOCIALIST CONTEXT – THE CASE OF NIŠ, SERBIA
The city of Niš, Serbia, has been an industrial production hub since the liberation from Ottoman rule and the construction of the railway infrastructure at the end of the 19th century. Following the aftermath of World War II, the city of Niš experienced an industrial bloom – redefining the urban landscape with numerous industria...

THE ROLE OF BASIN PHYSICAL CHANGES IN FUTURE FLOOD PROJECTIONS
Although both climatic factors and basin physical characteristics influence flood generation, projections of future floods predominantly emphasize climate change, while changes in land use, urbanization, and basin morphology are less systematically addressed. This paper presents a brief literature overview on the assessment of future floods at the ...

CONTROL OF A GEODETIC 2D NETWORK FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A LARGE-SCALE HYDROPOWER SYSTEM USING STATIC GNSS OBSERVATIONS
The paper describes the methodology for controlling the consistency of the geodetic basic 2D network for the construction of a large-scale hydropower system. The research was conducted on the case study of the network for the construction of the Dabar hydroelectric power plant, in an extremely complex karst area. The network was established by GNSS...

HISTORICAL LAYERS AND THE FORMATION OF URBAN IDENTITY AND MORPHOLOGY: THE CASE OF HOTEL “BOSNA” IN BANJA LUKA
Globalization, the crisis of urban identity, and the endangerment of authentic urban patterns, morphology, and the image of the city represent significant challenges in urban planning and architectural practice. The relevance of this topic has been recognized and, among other aspects, will be the focus of this paper, which includes a case study of ...

LOAD–DEFLECTION BEHAVIOR OF CONTINUOUS SCC BEAMS WITH RECYCLED COARSE AGGREGATES
This study examines the load–deflection response of continuous self-compacting concrete (SCC) beams incorporating recycled coarse aggregates. Nine two-span beams with reinforcement ratios of 0.65–0.94% were experimentally tested using 50% and 100% aggregate replacement. Recycled aggregate beams showed slightly reduced stiffness and incr...

THE ROLE OF URBAN PLANNING IN THE URBAN TRANSFORMATION OF BANJA LUKA: FROM STRATEGIC TO INVESTOR-DRIVEN PLANNING- A GENERAL REVIEW
The urban transformation of Banja Luka, which during the final period of socialism (1975–1990), was guided by the City’s Urban Plan, has proceeded without a clear strategic vision of urban development since the late 1990s. During this period, the city developed according to detailed regulatory plans and was strongly influenced by neolib...

MULTI-CRITERIA OPTIMIZATION OF CONSTRUCTION MACHINERY SELECTION USING A HYBRID AHP-GA MODEL
This paper presents a hybrid model integrating the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Genetic Algorithms (GA) to optimize construction machinery selection based on cost, CO2 emissions, maintenance, and age. AHP was used to determine precise weighting criteria, while a Python-based GA explored the solution space using technical penalty functions. ...

QUANTITATIVE IDENTIFICATION OF LANDSLIDE SCARPS USING UAV LIDAR TERRAIN PROFILES: CASE STUDIES FROM JAKOPOVEC AND LAZ BISTRIČKI (CROATIA)
The UAV LiDAR terrain model provides accurate identification of various landslide-related features, with a specific emphasis on terrain discontinuities known as scarps. This research aims to develop a quantitative method for identifying scarps using terrain-profile analysis of UAV LiDAR DTM. The research considers two landslide-prone areas located ...

VALIDATION OF DIFFERENT DIGITAL ELEVATION MODELS OVER A REGION IN WESTERN MACEDONIA
This study investigates the performance of several digital elevation models (DEMs) over a selected area in Western Macedonia. The objective is to identify the most suitable DEM to serve as a reliable reference for the representation of topographic masses used in gravity anomaly determination, terrain correction computation, and geoid modeling. The ...
