AB  - The cytoskeleton of cilia and flagella is so called axoneme a stable cylindrical architecture of nine microtubule doublets. Axoneme performs periodic bending motion by utilizing specific dynein motor family powered by ATP hydrolysis. It is still unclear how this highly organized “ciliary beat” is being initiated and strongly coordinated by the combined action of hundreds dynein motors. Based on the experimental evidences we here elaborate a plausible scenario in which actually calcium ions play the roles of catalytic activators and coordinators of dynein attachments doing it in superposition with already known mechanical control tools of “ciliary beat”. Polyelectrolyte properties of microtubules incorporated in axoneme doublets enable the formation and propagation of soliton-like “ionic clouds” of Ca2+ ions along these “coaxial nanocables”. The sliding speed of such Ca2+ “clouds” along microtubule doublets is comparable with the speed of propagation of “ciliary beat” itself. We elaborated the interplay between influx of Ca2+ ions in ciliary based body and the sliding of microtubule triplets therein. In second segment we considered how the dynein motors activated by Ca2+ ions contained within solitonic “ionic clouds” in competition with axoneme curvature regulate ciliary and flagellar beating.

AB  - To adapt to changing environments cells must signal and signaling requires messengers whose concentration varies with time in space. We here consider the messenger role of calcium ions implicated in regulation of the wave-like bending dynamics of cilia and flagella. The emphasis is on microtubules as polyelectrolytes serving as transmission lines for the flow of Ca2+ signals in the axoneme. This signaling is superimposed with a geometric clutch mechanism for the regulation of flagella bending dynamics and our modeling produces results in agreement with experimental data.

AB  - Calcium ions (Ca2+) tune and control numerous diverse aspects of cochlear and vestibular physiological processes. This paper is focused on the Ca2+ control of mechanotransduction in sensory hair cells in the context of polyelectrolyte properties of actin filaments within the hair–bundles of inner ear. These actin filaments appear to serve as efficient pathways for the flow of Ca2+ ions inside stereocilia. We showed how this can be utilized for tuning of force–generating myosin motors. In an established model, we unified the Ca2+ nonlinear dynamics involved in the control of myosin adaptation motors with mechanical displacements of hair–bundles. The model shows that the characteristic time scales fit reasonably well with the available experimental data for spontaneous oscillations in the inner ear. This scenario promises to fill a gap in our understanding of the role of Ca2+ ions in the regulation of processes in the auditory cells of the inner ear. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.

AB  - In Serbia, a developing country, energy consumption per capita is higher than in most other countries in the region. Implementation of energy management practices is therefore necessary to cut energy consumption and CO2 emissions. This paper gives an insight into how energy management is implemented in Serbian manufacturing (focusing on food processing and manufacturing of non-metallic mineral products, defined as priority industrial sectors). No similar study for Serbian manufacturing has been published. The study was carried out using an on-line questionnaire based on the ISO 50001 requirements. Questions were grouped into 16 categories and presented according to the PDCA (Plan-Do Check-Act) cycle. The propbsed methodology has not been used by other researchers for similar problems. The survey was conducted in 52 organizations and lasted from May to December 2015. We found that the average level of requirements fulfillment in priority industrial sectors in Serbia is 59.05%. Full implementation was found in only 5.8% of participating organizations. Average implementation of the PLAN phase (establishing basics for energy management) is 61.87%, implementation of the DO phase (realization of energy management processes) is 59.98%, implementation of the CHECK phase (monitoring and measurement of energy performance) is 59.61%, and finally, implementation of the ACT phase (review and improvement of energy management) is only 3534%. The study results offer scientific data for improving national policy and education on energy management in Serbia. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

These changes have very profound effects on microtubule functions especially in connection with cellular traffic in terms of motor proteins. In this study, we elaborated the biophysical model aimed to explain the strategy governing these subtle interplays between structural and functional properties of microtubules. We relied onto Langevin equations including fluctuation dissipation processes. In that context we found out that small interaction between a charged motor neck domain and oppositely charged carboxy terminal tail of the a tubulin plays the decisive role in tuning kinesin-1 motor processivity along microtubules.

AB  - The mechanical and electrical properties, and information processing capabilities of microtubules are the permanent subject of interest for carrying out experiments in vitro and in silico, as well as for theoretical attempts to elucidate the underlying processes. In this paper, we developed a new model of the mechano-electrical waves elicited in the rows of very flexible C-terminal tails which decorate the outer surface of each microtubule. The fact that C-terminal tails play very diverse roles in many cellular functions, such as recruitment of motor proteins and microtubule-associated proteins, motivated us to consider their collective dynamics as the source of localized waves aimed for communication between microtubule and associated proteins. Our approach is based on the ferroelectric liquid crystal model and it leads to the effective asymmetric double-well potential which brings about the conditions for the appearance of kink-waves conducted by intrinsic electric fields embedded in microtubules. These kinks can serve as the signals for control and regulation of intracellular traffic along microtubules performed by processive motions of motor proteins, primarly from kinesin and dynein families. On the other hand, they can be precursors for initiation of dynamical instability of microtubules by recruiting the proper proteins responsible for the depolymerization process.

AB  - This paper aims to provide an overview of the polyelectrolyte model and the current understanding of the creation and propagation of localized pulses of positive ions flowing along cellular microtubules. In that context, Ca2+ ions may move freely on the surface of microtubule along the protofilament axis, thus leading to signal transport. Special emphasis in this paper is placed on the possible role of this mechanism in the function of microtubule based kinocilium, a component of vestibular hair cells of the inner ear. We discuss how localized pulses of Ca2+ ions play a crucial role in tuning the activity of dynein motors, which are involved in mechano sensitivity of the kinocilium. A prevailing notion holds that the concentration of Ca2+ ions around the microtubules within the kinocilium represents the control parameter for Hopf bifurcation. Therefore, a key feature of this mechanism is that the velocities of these Ca2+ pulses be sufficiently high to exert control at acoustic frequencies. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB  - Manufacturing, which is destined to play the most significant role in the reindustrialization of Serbia is also one of the largest energy consumers and environmental polluters. In accordance with this, a large number of energy and environment management initiatives have been implemented over the years. In developed countries, these initiatives are at an advanced level, but not in Serbia. A group of manufacturers in Serbia has recognized the significance of the environmental initiatives implementation, but the interest in energy management improvement has remained low. Although these initiatives can be used to achieve cost reduction in industry, not all the manufacturing sectors equally value the importance of energy management improvement. Among all the manufacturing sectors, it is necessary to prioritize those with the potentials for energy management improvement, which can be done using different methods. In this paper, the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method was used to prioritize manufacturing sectors in Serbia in the area of energy management improvement. Using a created AHP questionnaires criteria weights were selected. These questionnaires were completed by the experts from the Serbian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, providing us with the opportunity to evaluate the Serbian manufacturing sectors based on the real life data. The results of the AHP method, which was used as the prioritization instrument, and their analysis are presented in the paper. As a part of a wider study, aimed at the improvement of the energy management in Serbia, the three manufacturing sectors with the highest priority (Manufacture of food products, Manufacture of motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers, Manufacture of other non-metallic mineral products) will be analyzed in the future research in terms of energy process flows, energy management system implementation and other relevant issues.

abstract = "Manufacturing, which is destined to play the most significant role in the reindustrialization of Serbia is also one of the largest energy consumers and environmental polluters. In accordance with this, a large number of energy and environment management initiatives have been implemented over the years. In developed countries, these initiatives are at an advanced level, but not in Serbia. A group of manufacturers in Serbia has recognized the significance of the environmental initiatives implementation, but the interest in energy management improvement has remained low. Although these initiatives can be used to achieve cost reduction in industry, not all the manufacturing sectors equally value the importance of energy management improvement. Among all the manufacturing sectors, it is necessary to prioritize those with the potentials for energy management improvement, which can be done using different methods. In this paper, the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method was used to prioritize manufacturing sectors in Serbia in the area of energy management improvement. Using a created AHP questionnaires criteria weights were selected. These questionnaires were completed by the experts from the Serbian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, providing us with the opportunity to evaluate the Serbian manufacturing sectors based on the real life data. The results of the AHP method, which was used as the prioritization instrument, and their analysis are presented in the paper. As a part of a wider study, aimed at the improvement of the energy management in Serbia, the three manufacturing sectors with the highest priority (Manufacture of food products, Manufacture of motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers, Manufacture of other non-metallic mineral products) will be analyzed in the future research in terms of energy process flows, energy management system implementation and other relevant issues.

AB  - As optical fibres are used ever more extensively in space applications, nuclear industry, medicine and high-energy physics experiments, it has become essential to investigate the influence of ionizing radiation on their characteristics. In this work, the radiation-induced attenuation at 530 nm is investigated experimentally in step-index multimode polymethyl-methacrylate plastic optical fibres exposed to low dose-rate gamma radiation. Cumulative doses ranged from 50 Gy to 500 Gy. The radiation induced attenuation has been empirically found to obey the power law RIA = aD(b), where D is the total radiation dose and a and b are the constants determined by fitting.

AB  - N-type thin film transistors (TFTs) fabricated with fluorinated and hydrogenated polysilicon were exposed to gamma radiation to a cumulative dose up to 1200 Gy(Si). During irradiation, the gate electrode was biased with a positive voltage up to 4.8 V. The effect of irradiation on the electrical characteristics of the devices was monitored after the irradiation steps and in a prolonged period after irradiation. The main monitoring parameter was the threshold voltage which was found to have linear dependence on irradiation dose. This, together with obtained low fading, suggests that thin transistors have potential as radiation dosimeters.
