  • The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia does not have a developed NSDI yet. The government of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia has indicated its commitment to the creation of a NSDI with the passing of the Law on Real Estate Cadastre in March 2008 which includes provision for the establishment and maintenance of an NSDI. One of the key points of attention is the development of a strategy for implementing NSDI in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. This strategy includes governance, funding, legal, technological NSDI-issues as well as a roadmap. The strategy and its implementation are funded with a donation from The Netherlands and a loan from the World Bank. Although there is not yet a specific coordination body for the INSPIRE implementation in place, it seems tha...

  • This gave us the idea to write an unofficial guide for authors, in which we could tell you frankly what you can expect from journals, editors, reviewers and, indeed, the whole system of science. We offer some practical tips on how to manage the production of your paper. We also address some of the deeper aspects of preparing and publishing research articles as well as the limitations and frustrations that are inherent in current editorial systems such as hyperproduction, gift authors and poor reviews. We then provide instructions on how to improve writing especially at the meso (paragraphs; logical moves) and the micro (sentences) level. This guide is primarily intended for inexperienced researchers, although we hope more experienced authors will also find some of the points raised ...

  • This research mainly focuses on the ability of the hydraulic structure to recover from the significant impacts of typhoons. According to the load/unload response ratio theory, the degree of instability by which nonlinear systems can be identified according to the difference between load and unload responses was analyzed. This analysis was used as a basis to study the resilience of a hydraulic structure. The results of the calculated resilience reflect the actual conditions of the structure and can be used to determine the applicability of the embankment section. The load/unload response ratio theory is one of the effective tools for calculating the resilience of hydraulic structures under the significant impacts of typhoons.
