AB  - Failure analysis of welded joint with multiple defects was performed taking into account the effect of all defects, not just a dominant one. Four cases of multiple defects in welded joint under the uniaxial tensile loading were investigated using extended Finite Element Method. Two-dimensional Finite Element Models were made according to the tensile specimens with initial crack located in a critical area of welded joint. For each multiple defects case, numerical simulation was performed with three initial crack depth. Engineering Critical Analysis was made using Failure Assessment Diagrams for each defect that was determined as critical for its welded joint case. Numerical simulation showed that the geometry of the most prominent one from a point of view of structural integrity. It was concluded that the vertical misalignment in combination with a secondary defect, had the most adverse effect which can lead to failure of welded structure.

AB  - The hybrid multifunctional magnetic organic/inorganic composite materials, with addition of optimal filler type and quantities are attractive due to wide range of potential application, from various pressure sensors, through smart packaging, to tissue engineering and medicine. The structural, morphological and magnetic properties of polyvinylidene fluoride/nanocellulose/magnetite@BaTiO3 hybrid films were investigated. The presented study revealed significant impact of nanocellulose (NC) content on formation of the polymorphs of PVDF, responsible for ferro-, piezo- and pyroelectric properties. The structural characterization, XRD and Raman measurements confirmed enhancement of the β and γ phases when the loading of NC higher then 4 wt% in multi-component hybrid films. The saturation magnetization value gradually raises with increasing amount of NC and reaches its maximum value of 41.2 emu/g at content of 4 wt% NC. Further, addition of NC decreases saturation magnetization value regardless of constant amount of magnetite, indicating optimal content of NC substrate for co-precipitation of Fe3O4 onto NC matrix.

AB  - In this study, we report the influence of vanadium oxide (VO), as a photosensitive component, on the photoactivity of TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs). A series of TNTs of varying tube diameter were synthesized by the anodization of titanium foils at different voltages, while vanadium oxide was deposited on TNTs by wet chemical deposition. An improvement in the optical properties of nanotubes was observed after the deposition of vanadium oxide. An improvement in the optical properties (redshift in UV-Vis spectra) of TNTs and TNT/VO was noted. The photocatalytic activity was improved with increasing tube diameter, while it was weakened after the deposition of VO. Furthermore, photoactivity was investigated in photodiodes based on TNTs or TNT/VO and single crystals of CH3NH3PbI3. The photoelectric measurement revealed that different TNT diameters did not influence the I-V characteristic of the photodiodes, while the deposition of VO improved the photocurrent for smaller TNTs.

AB  - Crack size and undermatching effects on fracture behavior of undermatched welded joints are presented and analyzed. Experimental and numerical analysis of the fracture behavior of high-strength low-alloyed (HSLA) steel welded joints with so-called small and large crack in undermatched weld metal and the base metal was performed, as a part of more extensive research previously conducted. J integral was determined by direct measurement using special instrumentation including strain gauges and a CMOD measuring device. Numerical analysis was performed by 3D finite element method (FEM) with different tensile properties in BM and WM. Results of J-CMOD curves evaluation for SUMITEN SM 80P HSLA steel and its weld metal (WM) are presented and analyzed for small and large cracks in tensile panels. This paper is focused on some new numerical results and observations on crack tip fields and constraint effects of undermatching and crack size keeping in mind previously performed experiments on the full-scale prototype. In this way, a unique combined approach of experimental investigation on the full-scale proto-type and tensile panels, as well as numerical investigation on mismatching and crack size effects, is achieved.

The fractional factorial design was used to assess the impact of factors. The global Derringer desirability function was used to determine the optimal conditions for the best quality attributes of dried pepper. The drying method influenced total phenolic content, a* (redness), and initial rehydration ratio; pretreatment time significantly affected FRAP antiradical activity, a*, chroma and non-browning index, while pH-value had a significant effect on the texture of dried pepper. Non-enzymatic browning was reduced to 72.6%, while the DPPH antioxidant capacity of freeze-dried peppers was enhanced from 4.2% to 71.9%. Ultrasonic pretreatment led to changes in the pepper morphology, while potassium metabisulfite (KMS) was a more effective additive than citric acid.

Welding was performed using the GTAW and GMAW processes in a shielded atmosphere of pure argon. After the welding, metallographic tests were performed, and the hardness distribution in the welded joints was determined. The ultrasonic vibration method was used to evaluate the base metal’s and weld metal’s resistance to cavitation. The change in mass was monitored to determine the cavitation rates. The morphology of the surface damage of the base metal and weld metal due to cavitation was monitored using scanning electron microscopy to explain the effect of the shielding gas arc welding process on their resistance to cavitation.

AB  - This paper presents development of numerical models for simulation of the behaviour of titanium alloy hip implants under static and dynamic loads, which is a part of extensive research involving the structural integrity of such implants under various loading conditions, as well as under exposure to aggressive environments. Numerical models were created in ABAQUS and ANSYS software packages, in order to determine the stress/strain distribution, the number of cycles to failure and stress intensity factors, for two different hip implant geometries. The ABAQUS models were used for static and ANSYS models for dynamic loads. The next stage in this analysis involved comparing these two cases, to determine the one with the better behaviour, depending on the exploitation conditions, which can greatly vary between different groups of patients. The targeted patient weight for all numerical simulations was 90 kg, while failure assessment diagrams were made for both implant geometries, assuming a crack length of 1 mm.

AB  - Tensile properties of thin plate specimens made from short carbon fiberreinforced PET-G material are experimentally evaluated for various raster angles(printing directions). In additive manufacturing (AM), raster angle is recognized as one of the key printing parameters which strongly influences the strength and stiffness of thefinal part. The relatively high average value of ultimate tensile strength was obtained for specimens printed with the 0° raster angle, compared to the value obtained for specimens printed with the 90° raster angle - 52.2 MPa and 25.4 MPa, respectively. Similarly, noticeably higher average value of modulus of elasticity was obtained for specimens printed with the 0° raster angle, compared to the value obtained for specimens printed with the 90° raster angle - 4752 MPa and 1569 MPa, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used for analysis of specimens’ fracture surfaces. SEM images revealed considerable volume fraction of voids (porosity). Тhe porosity, together with weak bonding between two adjacent rasters, could be one of key factors for poor tensile properties of samples printed with rasters perpendicular to direction of load application (90° raster angle)

AB  - Nowadays, fossil fuels are used in a clearly unsustainable way that can bring potentially catastrophic consequences. Electricity is currently delivered to end users by generation and energy transmission companies. Previous research shows that the development of modern circular economy sets a need for the re-orientation of socio and economic development of decentralized systems, including energy basis. In addition to being ecological, the use of renewable energy sources also has economic significance by contributing to energy independence. Citizens, industries, local and national authorities become interconnected within emerging novel renewable energy sourcing communities, through which they establish trade of energy and, most importantly, models of investing and reshaping the distribution of renewable energy. The modern portfolio management of renewable energy networking is aiming toward decentralized systems of trade, where the consumer becomes a producer (prosumer) within the network, itself managed by users. Excess energy produced in the micro-grid nets within the over-arching national and transnational energy grid should be accounted for and managed with blockchain technology for financial and structural security. The decentralization of the energy market requires the establishment of strict norms that will regulate the market and taxation of profits arising. The extensive literature review on blockchain in the energy sector reflects a very pragmatic and narrow approach to the topic, although it is evident that the distribution of energy within the blockchain would enable economic development through reducing cost and ensuring more secure energy trade. Blockchain technology embeds the related digital codes, in which information will be visible to all, but also secured from hacking and duplicating. However, there are challenges to this paradigm, not least the energy consumption of the extensive nodal mesh required to perform the necessary protocols. This paper aims to provide an overview of the application of blockchain technology and the need for the development of the regulatory system and of potential solutions to the challenges posed. By undertaking an energy consumption analysis of blockchain implementation from first electronic principles, which has not been constructed before in the literature, this paper’s conclusion stresses the future demand for reducing energy consumption and considers the latest findings in the quantum coupling of light signals as a potential for solving the enormous ledger duplication structure problem.

AB  - The research represents the ongoing investigation of the welded joints behavior made of low-carbon low-alloyed steel in the presence of different multiple defects. Following the initial experimental and numerical analyses performed on low-grade steel, a set of experiments were performed with specimens made of steel EN 1.0044 (commercial designation S275JR), along with development of new numerical models. Four combinations were made, including defects like undercuts, excess weld metal, misalignment, weld face sagging and incomplete root penetration, considering that these defects are often encountered in practice, and can appear simultaneously. The finite element method (FEM) was used to simulate the experiments. Tensile properties of the HAZ and weld metal were calculated using strain measurements by the digital image correlation (DIC) method. The finite element method (FEM) results were in good agreement with the experimental ones.

AB  - In order to define a procedure for integrity assessment of pipelines and determining the fracture mechanics parameters, a new type of specimen with a sharp notch, Pipe Ring Notched Tension (PRNT) specimen, is tested. The aim of the study is to determine the influence of the specimen geometry (cylindrical shape, as well as number and length of stress concentrators) on parameters such as force, Crack Mouth Opening Displacement CMOD, Crack Tip Opening Displacement CTOD and J integral. The specimens were fabricated by an additive production method - selective laser sintering (SLS). EOS Formiga P100 machine is used, and the material is polyamide PA12. In addition to Pipe Ring Notched Tension specimens, Single Edge Notched Tension (SENT) specimens with identical cross section were also considered. All specimens were tested on a universal tensile testing machine. A tool specially designed to apply contact pressure to the inner walls in the tension direction was used, simulating the internal pressure. For determining the field of displacement and strain on the surface of the tested samples that occur during the loading, Aramis GOM 2M optical measurement system was used. Aramis is applied for determination of geometry fracture mechanics parameters: CMOD and CTOD (based on δ5 concept). In addition to the examination of fracture properties of additively manufactured PA12, the main topic of this work is the development of the non-standard testing procedure, which will be subsequently applied to the specimens cut from metallic or non-metallic pipes. As an important part of this procedure, the calculation of fracture parameters will be conducted based on the results presented here.

AB  - Drying is one of the methods for the preservation of fruits and vegetables [1]. Peppers are still
dried in open sunlight, although this method has many shortcomings (long drying time,
microbial contamination, depending on weather conditions, final product of poor color) [2].
Deterioration of numerous nutrients, which occurs during drying, can be prevented by
applying various pre-treatments and/or different drying methods [2–4]. The aim of this study
was to investigate effects of different pretreatments and drying methods on L-ascorbic acid
(L-AA) content in dried bell pepper. Effect of following parameters were studied: applied
additive (0.25% citric acid, 0.25% potassium metabisulfite or their mixture), temperature,
time, pH value of pretreatment solution, ultrasound pretreatment, pepper slices size, pepper
mass and drying method (hot air-drying and freeze-drying). For organization of experiments
fractional factorial design was used. Results showed that only the drying method significantly
affects the content of L-AA after a month of storage. Freeze-drying was a better method for
L-AA preservation. The interaction between the drying method and the size of pepper slices
was also meaningful, although this interaction wasn’t statistically significant. Better
preservation of L-AA, for hot air-dried samples, was achieved with a slices size of 4×4 cm
compared to smaller (2×2 cm) and larger ones (8×8 cm). In the case of freeze-dried samples,
the slice size didn’t affect the preservation of L-AA. The medium slices of the pepper fruit
provided better penetration of the additives, which resulted in a better protective effect on
L-AA during the hot air-drying. On the other hand, smaller pieces (2×2 cm) led to higher
losses, probably due to the higher leaching of L-AA. Larger slices (8×8 cm) proved to be the
most unfavorable for the preservation of L-AA (maybe due to less diffusion of additive during
pretreatment and its later weak effect during drying).

abstract = "Drying is one of the methods for the preservation of fruits and vegetables [1]. Peppers are still
dried in open sunlight, although this method has many shortcomings (long drying time,
microbial contamination, depending on weather conditions, final product of poor color) [2].
Deterioration of numerous nutrients, which occurs during drying, can be prevented by
applying various pre-treatments and/or different drying methods [2–4]. The aim of this study
was to investigate effects of different pretreatments and drying methods on L-ascorbic acid
(L-AA) content in dried bell pepper. Effect of following parameters were studied: applied
additive (0.25% citric acid, 0.25% potassium metabisulfite or their mixture), temperature,
time, pH value of pretreatment solution, ultrasound pretreatment, pepper slices size, pepper
mass and drying method (hot air-drying and freeze-drying). For organization of experiments
fractional factorial design was used. Results showed that only the drying method significantly
affects the content of L-AA after a month of storage. Freeze-drying was a better method for
L-AA preservation. The interaction between the drying method and the size of pepper slices
was also meaningful, although this interaction wasn’t statistically significant. Better
preservation of L-AA, for hot air-dried samples, was achieved with a slices size of 4×4 cm
compared to smaller (2×2 cm) and larger ones (8×8 cm). In the case of freeze-dried samples,

Previous research indicates that models for risk assessment of pressure equipment have not sufficiently or adequately integrated indicators of human factors and organizational factors. Methods. The goal of this article is to check the differences in attitudes of operators and managers engaged in the area of pressure equipment risk management. A questionnaire was designed and data were then collected from 253 operators and managers working with the same pressure equipment in Serbia. By applying a paired t test, differences in their attitudes were checked for issues described by the constructs of communication (COM), potentially hazardous materials and equipment (PHME), process safety (PS), safety and health at work (SHW), organizational change management (OCM), maintenance/inspection (MI) procedures, human error (HE), trainings and competences of employees for crisis situations (TCECS) and conducting research after accidents (CRAA). Results. It is statistically evident that the coincidence of attitudes accounted for less than 20% of questions. The highest coincidence is shown for PHME and TCECS, where one-half of the dimensions of the given constructs indicate that there are no statistically significant differences. Conclusions. The differences found could be used as an explanation for high-risk levels of pressure equipment exploitation and how they influence it.

AB  - The subject of this paper is the structural design of a safety steel device that is located between the standard wagon buffer and the collision energy absorber. The safety steel device is a sacrifical part able to withstand normal operating loads from the buffer across the absorber to the vehicle bearing structure without any permanent deformation, but experiences fully controlled fracture when the load exceeds the defined threshold. Following fracture, the load path is through the energy absorber. The sacrificial part is a ring made from quenched and tempered low alloyed steel with precisely defined heat treatment and material properties. Experimental investigations of scaled samples were performed to get mechanical characteristics of the material and geometry. A full-scale prototype of the safety device was produced, and final quasi-static and dynamic experiments were conducted. The results validate the anaytical predictions, and thus validate the design method used here for dimensioning the safety steel device.

Specimens were made of low-alloyed steel NIONIKRAL 70, welded by SAW process. Surface notches were machined by the electro-erosion method in the parent metal (PM), heat affected zone (HAZ) and weld metal (WM). The highest resistance to cracking was in PM, and the lowest one in WM, due to so-called pop-in behaviour.

AB  - This paper presents the continued efforts in investigating behaviour of low-alloyed low-carbon steel welded joints in the presence of different combinations of multiple welding defects, (undercuts, incomplete root penetration, misalignments). Since these defect combinations can greatly affect the integrity of welded joints, due to significant changes in geometry which are induced by their presence. For this reason, a total of 8 numerical models were made, including four different defect combinations (2 models for each group). This number of models was equal to the number of actual test specimens that were used for tensile test experiments, which also provided the necessary input data (mechanical properties) for each model. The goal was to determine if the two models from each group were sufficiently similar to each other, so that in the future research, they could be replaced by a single, unified model for each defect combination. Comparison was made in terms of stress and strain distribution, and it was determined that three out of four models have nearly identical values, whereas the first group specimens had shown slightly bigger differences, which were still acceptable. Thus, it was concluded that a single representative model could be made for each defect combination group.

the aspect of strength and reliability. The beams have an
open cross section. Analytical and numerical determination
of equivalent stresses and deformations of open section thinwalled ‘U’ and ‘Z’ cantilever beams, loaded with torsion, is
presented. Work is divided into three parts. In the first part,
equivalent stress and deformation are obtained analytically
for cantilever beam model in the whole cross section. In the
second part, the finite element method is applied in beam
models, and the results are compared with the analytical
calculation. The third part presents the profiles installed in
load-bearing structures of vessels (rafts) and solutions are
shown to apply results of the presented analyses in order to
increase reliability. Finally, the design calculation of the raft
load-bearing structure is shown.

Then, best PT-char sample by its physicochemical properties (WCT 800(1 h)) was further tested for its ability to adsorb Rhodamine B (RhB) dye from aqueous solutions. Structural characterization of synthesized material showed existence of graphene-based material, with average pore diameter of 22.8 nm and specific surface area of 55.8 m2.g- 1. Obtained carbon material meets specifications of commercial carbon black (CB). The yield of 33.6% of CB recovered has been achieved. Under the optimal conditions, 99.57% of RhB was removed. Adsorption of RhB obeys pseudo second-order model and Langmuir isotherm model. DFT (the density functional theory) was revealed that effective bonding of RhB onto WCT 800 originates from pi-electron interactions with aromatic moieties and chemical (or at least the electrostatic) interactions, between positive nitrogen and electron-rich surface groups.

AB  - This study presents the experimental results of the mechanical and thermophysical properties of wood pellet samples important for their utilization in pellet stoves and boilers for heat production. The impact of operational parameters during the production process on a single pelletizer unit for three typical domestic commercial wood pellet samples (PWP110, BWP110, and BWP140) on fuel particle mechanical characteristics and related thermal properties was analyzed. It was concluded that the changes in raw material selection, as well as related operating parameters (extrusion length, i.e., die temperature during production process), have influenced the key mechanical and thermal characteristics of tested commercial wood pellets. The presented results have indicated the existence of a thin solid layer (due to waxes and subsequently lignin coating layer behaviors depending on their glass transition temperatures) on the surface of the BWP140 pellet sample. This layer leads to increasing the thermal resistance in the considered sample which can be explained by decreasing the effective thermal conductivity. Also, the forming of this layer on the surface of the wood pellet sample was caused by the production process (high-temperature impact explained by increasing friction between the die and feedstock during pellets production). It could be related to a lower value of effective thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity for considered (Beech) wood pellet sample.

AB  - Two modes of failure are analysed for coupling links, the mechanical connections that transmit traction forces between vehicles along the length of a train. Coupling links are designed to withstand the dynamic loads in normal operation but may break if applied loads exceed safe operating limits. Fractography of two failed links revealed that one had failed through brittle fracture, and one through ductile fracture. Metallography indicated that one sample was hardened and tempered with typical tempered martensite microstructure and the other was normalized with a ferrite-pearlite microstructure. A numerical model of a coupling link is developed and validated against experimental data. Results indicate that the failed links experienced loads above the permitted limit.

AB  - Fracture of welded joints has been an important research and industrial topic for a long time, having in mind the key role of welded joints in ensuring the safe operation and integrity of welded structures. This work contains an overview of application of micromechanical models to ductile fracture of welded joints. The main benefit of these models, in comparison with the classical fracture mechanics approach, is consideration of the local quantities (stress and strain) in prediction of damage development. The damage is quantified through the value of the damage parameter, which is typically related to the void nucleation, growth and coalescence for ductile fracture of metallic materials, i.e. the description of the material can be related to the actual material behaviour during fracture. Most of the presented studies, including those published by the present authors, are performed on steel as the base material, and the rest deal with aluminium alloys.

AB  - Two most common systems of forest biomass supply chains in Serbia are evaluated by using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach: 'cut-to-length' system with penduculate oak (CLO) on flat terrains with a tractor equipage, and 'tree-length' system with moesian beech (TLB) on more steep terrains, with a skidder. The main focus is put on the fuel consumption and its environmental impact on various stages of wood chips supply chain. Results indicate chipping as a most environmentally burdensome due to the low process productivity and high diesel combustion in outdated machines. CLO system exhibits lower environmental burden due to the 2%-35% lower impact in six out of eleven analysed impact categories compared to the TLB. The main reason is the skidding performed on a more steep terrain with a more powerful machine consuming more diesel than the tractor equipage. The higher impact of the felling operation in CLO system is caused by additional time for processing short oak assortments. The evaluated environmental impacts are consequence of the machinery old age used in Serbian forests. The application of a modern, energy efficient, combined machines such as harvesters and forwarders is recommended though it could have a lot of drawbacks.
