Radiation hazard indices associated with natural radioactivity in building materials in Montenegro
Abstract
Eleven building materials (95 samples in total) have been analyzed for 226Ra, 228Ra (232Th series), and 40K activity using High Purity Germanium (HPGe) spectrometry, and concentrations are found to be in the range (2.2–549), (0.3–161), and (2.7–1034) Bq kg−1, respectively. Statistical analyses showed a moderate positive linear correlation between 226Ra and 228Ra, and significant differences in the mean radionuclide concentrations among ceramic tile, brick, granite, and...

A Portable Solar-Powered Edge-AI System for Livestock Monitoring in Off-Grid Mountain Pastures: System Design and Field Validation
Highland pastures in Montenegro, known as katuns, are seasonal settlements without grid power or network coverage and which are located where conventional monitoring is unfeasible. This study presents a solar-powered, off-grid system for livestock and environmental monitoring. It integrates, into a single portable unit, a solar power station, an edge-AI computer, a camera, environmental sensors, a LoRaWAN gateway, and a cellular router for backhaul. All parts are pre-wired in a modular enclosure,...

Institutional Quality and Regional Growth: Panel VECM Evidence from EU and Western Balkan Economies
Regional competitiveness and growth performance in EU enlargement contexts depend critically on institutional foundations, yet the extent to which governance quality shapes macroeconomic policy transmission remains insufficiently examined in comparisons between the European Union and the Western Balkans. Using a panel Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) for 33 countries over 2002–2022, this paper compares cointegration patterns, adjustment dynamics, and shock transmission channels across both regions....

MESIJANSKE IDEJE I ULOGA INTELIGENCIJE U ROMANU DMITRIJA MEREŠKOVSKOG ANTIHRIST. PETAR I ALEKSEJ
Problemu i fenomenu ruske inteligencije Dmitrij Mereškovski je
posvećivao pažnju u različitim djelima, i ova tema je sa prekidima veoma
frekventna u njegovom stvaralaštvu, počev od brojnih publicističkih tekstova,
preko istoriozofskog romana Antihrist. Petar i Aleksej (1905), pa do Nadirućeg
prostaka(1906). Dijelom smo posvetili pažnju genezi pojma inteligencije i
inteligenta u kontekstu ruske kulture ukazujući na bitnije razlike u odnosu na
pojam i fenomen intelektualca na Zapadu, referišući se...
