331. Combining ultrafast laser texturing and laser hardening to enhance surface durability by improving hardness and wear performanceAbhijit Cholkar, Suman Chatterjee, Sujith Kumar, Marko Sedlaček, Bojan Podgornik, David Kinahan, Dermot Brabazon, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Aluminum alloy 7075 is utilized widely across marine, aerospace, and automotive sectors. However, its surface wear resistance has hindered its application in certain tribological environments. Addressing this challenge, the current study examines a hybrid laser method to increase surface wear resistance by combining two techniques: ultrafast laser texturing and laser-based surface hardening. Ultrafast laser processing is conducted using 3 W laser power, 100 kHz pulse repetition rate, 4 mm s-1 scanning speed, and three different scan patterns. After the texturing operation, laser-based surface hardening is then performed on these textures using a continuous wave laser. The laser heat treatment is conducted using laser powers of 400 and 500 W with three different scan speeds of 1, 2, and 3 mm s-1 . Microhardness evaluations show a notable increase in hardness, with the hardest sample exhibiting a 17.8% increase compared to the pristine sample. The lasertextured and laser heat-treated samples exhibit a significant reduction in the average coefficient of friction and wear volumes compared to samples that were laser-textured but not laser heat-treated. The investigated laser processing strategy offers a promising approach for surface modification, enhancing both mechanical properties and wear resistance of aluminum alloy 7075 surfaces.

332. Overlooked intersection of gender and racial/ethnic dimensions in Slovenian academic sexual harassment & violence policiesLucija Dežan, Mateja Sedmak, Zorana Medarić, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: This article addresses the need to adopt an intersectional perspective when discussing sexual harassment and violence in academia. The introduction of an intersectional perspective is important since sexual harassment and violence in relation to racial and ethnic minorities seldom revolve exclusively around gender. Recognising the intersectional nature of sexual assault and harassment means also recognising the coexistence of racism and nationalism, the perpetuation of ethnic/racial stereotypes, the multifaceted manifestations of discrimination, and a matrix of domination that exists in our society and educational and research institutions as well. In this article, we analysed official documents of Slovenian higher education and research institutions (public and private ones) with an aim to examine whether and how they address intersectionality and racial/ethnic minorities in their policies combating sexual harassment and violence. The results revealed a significant ignorance towards intersectionality of gender and ethnicity, but also issues arising from accessibility of these policies.

334. Recycled red mud as an useful geotechnical materialPrimož Pavšič, Marija Đurić, Mateja Košir, Alenka Mauko Pranjić, Ana Mladenovič, Primož Oprčkal, Sara Seršen, Vesna Zalar Serjun, 2024, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Povzetek: Red mud (RM) is an extractive waste from Bayer process in alumina production. The most conventional methods of RM disposal are tailing dams, or dry storage,both of which raiseenvironmental concerns due to the high alkalinity of RMandthe presence and leaching of potentially hazardous elements (PTEs).Due to its fine-grained nature and poor mechanical properties, as well as leaching of potentially hazardous substances, RM cannot be used by itself. Properties of the RM can be improved, by mixing it with hydraulic or pozzolanic binders, such as calcareous ashes or steelmaking slag, to produce mechanically stable and durable composites for earthworks. On the other hand, RMcan also serve as an immobilization additive for remediation of contaminated soils.Two different approaches for useful utilization of RMare presented based on results of laboratory research and a real case study, opening of new possibilities for conserving natural resources and reducing environmental hazards of RM deposits.
