536. Diketopyrrolopyrrole pigment core@multi-layer ▫$SiO_2$▫ shell with improved photochemical stabilityErika Švara Fabjan, Zineb Saghi, Paul A. Midgley, Mojca Otoničar, Goran Dražić, Miran Gaberšček, Andrijana Sever Škapin, 2018, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: A model organic pigment (diketopyrrolopyrrole) is encapsulated by a silica coating in order to improve its photochemical stability. Unlike in previous works where single-layer silica coatings were used for similar purposes, we here propose creation of a multi-layer silica shell synthesized via in-situ sol-gel method, which should significantly improve the homogeneity and thus the protection ability of the coating. This is done by repeating the basic two-step process (pigment surface modification and silica encapsulation) several times, creating the final protective shell in a layer-by-layer fashion. The compositional and structural properties of the prepared coatings is studied using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, differential thermal and thermogravimetric analysis, nitrogen adsorption measurements and transmission electron microscopy. Photochemical stability of non-encapsulated and encapsulated pigment particles is evaluated via the so-called fast-irradiation method. Various correlations between the essential coating properties, such as thickness, porosity, SiO2 content, and the corresponding photochemical stability of the samples are established and discussed in detail. As a whole, our results confirm the basic hypothesis, that multiple-layered silica shells show improved pigment protection ability in comparison to the single-layer coatings.

537. Lessons learned from the monitoring of retaining structures, built in demanding geotechnical conditions in SloveniaPavel Žvanut, Janko Logar, 2019, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Povzetek: A typical retaining structure built with large-diameter bored piles in soft clastic rock, and sup-ported by pre-stressed permanent ground anchors, is discussed. Step-by-step back analyses were performed. A simplified geological structure was first used in the analyses, together with a simple Mohr-Coulomb model. The results were compared with more complex analyses using a Hardening Soil model and a more detailed geological structure. Much better results were obtained with the use of the HS model, which is more suitable for the modelling of rock of such a type, but even with the use of the MC model the final results were quite good, making the use of the observational method attractive for engineers.

538. Modelling of traffic load effects in the assessment of existing road bridgesDominik Skokandić, Ana Mandić Ivanković, Aleš Žnidarič, Mladen Srbić, 2019, pregledni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Traffic load models used for the design of new bridges are based on conservative assumptions and have not been proven efficient for assessing safety of existing bridges. In the case of existing bridges, it is reasonable to use load models that are based on bridge weigh-in-motion data which, in addition to axle loads and spacing of bridge-crossing vehicles, provide information on bridge behaviour under traffic load. This paper provides an overview of traffic load models, as well as guidelines on the use of weigh-in-motion data when assessing condition of existing road bridges.

539. Validation of the recycled backfill material for the landslide stabilization at a railway lineKarmen Fifer Bizjak, Barbara Likar, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: In mountain areas landslides many times endanger safety of transport infrastructures, and these must be stabilized with retaining wall structures. In this paper the validation of a new composite as a backfill material for landslide stabilization with a large scale demo retaining wall is presented. The new composite was made from residues of paper industry, which uses for its production deinking process. New composite was validated with the laboratory tests, construction of small demo sites and at the end with a large demo retaining wall structure with a length of 50 m. It was concluded that the paper sludge ash and the paper sludge are in proportion 70:30, compacted on the optimal water content and maximum dry density, reached sufficient uniaxial compressive and shear strength. However, the composite's hydration processes required the definition of an optimal time between the composite mixing and installation. In 2019, the retaining wall structure from the new composite was successfully built. The large demo structure is an example of the knowledge transfer from the laboratory to the construction site, in which composite and installing technology could be verified.

540. Truffle mycorrhization in a pecan orchardMylla Trisha Mello Souza, Joice Aline Freiberg, Tine Grebenc, Marcelo Aloisio Sulzbacher, Diniz Fronza, Juliano Borela Magalhães, Vanessa da Rosa Gonçalves, Nathalie Caroline Hirt Kessler, Lucas Moura Somavilla, Zaida Ines Antoniolli, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: The ectomycorrhizal association of Tuber spp. in orchards is essential for truffle production. In this sense, this study aimed to evaluate the ectomycorrhizal association of Tuber aestivum Vittad. and Tuber brumale Vittad. in pecan after five years of cultivation in an orchard. The experiment was conducted in Santa Maria – Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, in a pecan orchard planted with seedlings inoculated with these two species of truffles. The orchard was characterized in terms of soil physical and chemical properties and soil type. Initially non-inoculated plants, plants inoculated with Tuber aestivum (TA), and plants inoculated with Tuber brumale (TB) were evaluated for the percentage (%) of roots colonized by Tuber spp., other ectomycorrhizae, and non-mycorrhizal roots. A reduction in the colonization of both truffle species was observed five years after transplanting the seedlings to the orchard but they have the potential to maintain the ectomycorrhizal association with pecan seedlings.
