The
forum-basilica
complex in Doclea (Montenegro): studies on architecture and architectural decoration
Abstract
This paper presents the results of research focused on the architectural decoration and the architecture of the forum-basilica complex of Doclea in Montenegro. The first excavations at the site were carried out during archaeological missions led by P. Rovinsky and J. A. R. Munro in the late 19th c. The monograph published by P. Sticotti in 1913 still represents the main source of information for the early excavations. That research identified the public area, consisting...

The Multidimensional Structure of Social Connectedness and Its Associations with Wellbeing and Quality of Life
Abstract
Social connectedness has been conceptualised in diverse ways across the psychological and social sciences, with relationship quality, family support, trust, neighbourhood cohesion, and loneliness often examined separately. The present study examined whether these experiences represent distinct social phenomena or manifestations of a broader underlying social connectedness construct. Data were drawn from 41,242 participants from the United Kingdom Household Longitudinal Study....

A CAD-BASED REFINED ZIG-ZAG THEORY FINITE ELEMENT FRAMEWORK USING GMSH SOFTWARE
<p class="SUMMARY"><span lang="EN-US">A computational framework for the structural analysis of laminated composite plates is presented. The framework combines geometry and mesh generation in Gmsh software with a Refined Zig-Zag finite element solver written by the author. The imported mesh provides the discretization of the computational domain, while the laminate definition, material data, stacking sequence, RZT kinematics, and analysis...

NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF A NON-SLENDER HIGH-STRENGTH CONCRETE BEAM USING ABAQUS
<p>The shear design of non-slender reinforced high-strength concrete (HSC) beams remains questionable, as indicated by experimental findings. This paper aims to perform a numerical simulation of a non-slender HSC beam and compare the results with experimental data. A finite element model of the tested HSC beam was developed in Abaqus, incorporating the properties as specified in the experimental study. The numerical results are compared with experimentally obtained ultimate load and...
