11. Seismogenic depth and seismic coupling estimation in the transition zone between Alps, Dinarides and Pannonian Basin for the new Slovenian seismic hazard modelPolona Zupančič, Barbara Šket Motnikar, Michele M. C. Carafa, Petra Jamšek Rupnik, Mladen Živčić, Vanja Kastelic, Gregor Rajh, Martina Čarman, Jure Atanackov, Andrej Gosar, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Seismogenic depth and seismic coupling are important inputs into seismic hazard estimates. Although the importance of seismic coupling is often overlooked, it significantly impacts seismic hazard results. We present an estimation of upper and lower seismogenic depth and expected hypocentral depth and seismic coupling in the transition zone between the Alps, Dinarides and Pannonian Basin, characterized by a complex deformation pattern, highly variable crustal thickness, and moderate seismic hazard, supporting the development of the 2021 seismic hazard model of Slovenia. The hazard model was based on three seismic source models: area source model, fault source model and smoothed seismicity (point) source model. We estimated the lower seismogenic depth using seismological and geological data and compared them. The seismological estimate was based on two regional earthquake catalogues prepared for this study. In the area source model, estimates of lower seismogenic depth from seismological data are deeper or equal to the ones derived from geological data, except in one case. In the fault source model, we analysed each fault individually and chose seismological lower depth estimates in 12 among 89 faults as more representative. The seismogenic thickness for each individual fault source was determined for seismic coupling determination. The seismic coupling was assessed by two approaches, i.e. we chose the most trusted value from the literature, and the value determined for each fault individually by using the approach based on the updated regional fault and earthquake data sets. The final estimate of seismic coupling ranges from 0.77 to 0.38. We compared the tectonic moment rate based on long-term slip rate using different values of seismic coupling with the seismic moment rate obtained from the earthquake catalogue. The analysis is done for the whole area, as well as for the individual area zones. The analysis of N–S components of estimated slip for the largest faults in the area of west Slovenia shows that the regional geological and geodetic shortening rates are comparable. The total activity rate of three global seismic source models is compared, which gives up to a 10 % difference. Our results contribute to a better understanding of the seismic activity in the region. The presented approach for seismic coupling estimation can be applied in cases where the total slip rate is given instead of its seismic part and can be used at regional or national level. The approach is also suitable for the cross-border harmonization of the European seismic hazard modelling data.

12. Reflexivity of the space of transversal distributionsJure Kališnik, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: For any smooth, Hausdorff and second-countable manifold $N$ one can define the Fréchet space ${\mathcal C}^{\infty}(N)$ of smooth functions on $N$ and its strong dual ${\cal E}'(N)$ of compactly supported distributions on $N$. It is a standard result that the strong dual of ${\cal E}'(N)$ is naturally isomorphic to ${\mathcal C}^{\infty}(N)$, which implies that both ${\mathcal C}^{\infty}(N)$ and ${\cal E}'(N)$ are reflexive locally convex spaces. In this paper we generalise that result to the setting of transversal distributions on the total space of a surjective submersion $\pi : P\to M$. We show that the strong ${\mathcal C}^{\infty}_c(M)$-dual of the space ${\cal E}'_{\pi} (P)$ of $\pi$-transversal distributions is naturally isomorphic to the ${\mathcal C}^{\infty}_c(M)$-module ${\mathcal C}^{\infty}(P)$.

19. Radioimunološko določanje luteinizirajočega hormona (LH), folikel stimulirajočega hormona (FSH) in testosterona v krvi in spermi fertilnih in infertilnih moškihElko Borko, Radovan Breznik, Ksenija Ogrizek-Pelkič, Majda Rižnik, Jurij Šubic, Rudi Turk, 1978, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Avtorji poročajo o svojih izkušnjah z določanjem LH, FSH in testosterona v krvi in v spermi pri fertilnih in infertilnih moških. Naše dosedanje preiskave so pokazale, da je količina FSH v krvi v primeru okvarjene spermatogeneze povečana. Vrednosti LH so v spermi višje kot statistično signifikantne korelacije glede na spermatogenezo. Avtorji načrtujejo nadaljne raziskave o gibanju teh hormonov v krvi in spermi pri različnih oblikah okvarjene sprematogeneze.

20. Effect of deep cryogenic treatment on corrosion properties of various high-speed steelsJure Voglar, Živa Novak, Patricia Jovičević Klug, Bojan Podgornik, Tadeja Kosec, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: The aim of the study was to evaluate the corrosion properties of three different grades of high-speed steel following a heat treatment procedure involving deep cryogenic treatment after quenching and to investigate how these properties are connected to the microstructure and hard- ness of the material. The hardness of steels was measured, and microstructural properties were determined through observation of the metallographically prepared steels using scanning electron microscopy. These studies were complemented corrosion evaluation by the use of corrosion potential measurement and linear polarization measurement of steels in a sodium tetraborate buffer at pH 10. The results showed that the deep cryogenic procedure of high-speed steel changed the microstructure and consequently affected the hardness of the investigated steels to different extents, depending on their chemical composition. Corrosion studies have confirmed that some high-speed steels have improved corrosion properties after deep cryogenic treatment. The most important improvement in corrosion resistance was observed for deep cryogenically treated high-speed steel EN 1.3395 (M3:2) by 31% when hardened to high hardness values and by 116% under lower hardness conditions. The test procedure for differentiating corrosion properties of differently heat-treated tool steels was established alongside the investigation.
