Note

Designed for the bridge constructions. It is unique in that it's elastic and plastic deformations allow for controlled large displacement of the bridge pillars head and for adhering the bridge supports, thus preventing the separation and falling of the bridge beams in the earthquake conditions. Designed to ensure the safety of high buildings in the earthquake conditions, winds and other forced vibrations. It is unique in that it combines two line dependent assemblies. The first assembly allows elastic deformations, and is activated only under the wind force. The second is hysteresis assembly which allows plastic deformations, and becomes active only in earthquake conditions.

3. Overview and application of patented inventions of Nenad Šušić Nenad Šušić is a scientific adviser in the IMS Institute (www.in stitutims.rs) and author of patented technology for system for landslides remediation which is applied in urban areas. Furtermore, Nenad Šušić won several national and international awards for inventions, among which are the gold medal "Tesla - Pupin" for the inventor of the year (2006), golden medal "IENA" of the international innovation fair in Nürnberg for invention (2006) and the gold medal of the XI International Fair of Innovation and new technologies in Sevastopol (2015) (http://ipcentar.rs/dr-nenad-susic-naucni savetnik/). Nenad Šušić invented two different geo -constructive systems for landslide remediation, which are protected in Serbia by petty patents (Table 3).The first geo-constructive system is from 2006 and is protected by the petty patent No. RS844U with title: “Geo - construction system to sanify slippery roads or soil in urban areas”. This system consists of a continuous retaining wall in the form of the latin letter "L" and "curtain" of the piles that jointly and uniformly take the lateral forces of the ground that originate from the slipping of the terrain. This joint action of the supporting wall and a number of piles in the landslide area enables that the system for landslide remediation may hold greater lateral earth pressures and reduction of dimensions of system elements, making it particularly suitable for use in urban areas due to limited manipulation space and greater lateral soil pressures from slipping the terrain. This geo-constructive system for landslide remediation has been successfully implemented at Karaburma in Belgrade (Fig. 5).
