1. Assessing behavioural changes in high-risk drivers through additional training for safe drivingDarja Topolšek, Tina Cvahte Ojsteršek, 2025, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: This study evaluates the short-term effects of Slovenia’s Additional Training Programme for Safe Driving, aimed at drivers penalized with demerit points. Using a pre/post design, 103 participants completed the Driver Behaviour Questionnaire (DBQ) and additional self-assessment tools before and after programme participation. Results show limited statistically significant short-term improvements, as shown by changes in a limited number of DBQ items (3 out of 27). More significant changes were shown in recent self-reported safer driving behaviour (9 out of 17 items) and attitudes towards safe driving practices (5 out of 27 items). Mostly, the positive changes were seen in the field of reductions in conscious violations such as speeding and aggressive manoeuvres. These findings suggest the programme has a modest but measurable impact on short-term behavioural change. Further research is needed to also assess long-term effects and to strengthen programme design for broader impact.

3. EEG + High-density surface EMG recordings of right tibialis anterior muscle during isometric ankle dorsiflexion (HybridNeuro project)Blanka Zicher, Ciaran McGeady, Dario Farina, Nina Murks, Matjaž Divjak, 2025, zaključena znanstvena zbirka raziskovalnih podatkov Opis: This dataset was prepared in the context of the HybridNeuro project (https://www.hybridneuro.feri.um.si/). It contains a collection of simultaneous EMG and EEG recordings from 7 healthy volunteers. The main purpose of data collection was to investigate the role of beta-band oscillations in motor control by examining how cortical beta activity propagates to the motor unit pool and can be measured at the peripheral level using high-density EMG.
Surface EMG was recorded using 64-channel electrode grids arranged in a 13 × 5 configuration with one missing corner electrode and an interelectrode distance of 4 mm (OT Bioelettronica, Torino, Italy). Signals were amplified (150 V/V), sampled at 2048 Hz using a Quattrocento system (OT Bioelettronica, Torino, Italy), and band-pass filtered between 20 and 500 Hz. Different grid placements were employed to maximize the number of motor units decomposed from the EMG signals.
EEG signals were recorded with 31 active gel-based electrodes positioned according to the International 10–20 system, with FCz as the reference electrode (actiCAP, Brain Products GmbH, Gilching, Germany). Signals were amplified and sampled at 1 kHz using a BrainVision actiCHamp Plus system (Brain Products GmbH, Gilching, Germany).
EEG, EMG, and the exerted force signals were temporally synchronized using a common digital trigger sent to both recording systems.
Participants performed 2 repetitions of 4 sets of trapezoidal submaximal isometric contractions using the right tibialis anterior muscle, at 4 different contraction levels. Total task length was 640 s (not including rests). Each task's data is stored in a separate file in Matlab format (.MAT). Total dataset size is 8.5 GB.

4. Metastable states of complex concentrated Ag–Pd–Pt–Cu–Ni alloy obtained by synthesis of nanoparticles : doctoral dissertationLidija Terzić, 2025, doktorska disertacija Opis: Doctoral dissertation explores the synthesis and characterization of metastable states within
a novel complex concentrated noble alloy (CCNA) composed of equi-atomic portion of silver
(Ag), palladium (Pd), platinum (Pt), copper (Cu), and nickel (Ni). Completed research activities
enable the understanding of processes and reactions that were crucial in evolution of
thermodynamically metastable microstructures through production of rapidly solidified
ribbons and synthesis of nanoparticles (NP). Two techniques, namely melt spinning and
ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) had been successfully used to achieve homogeneous high
entropy microstructures and were confirmed as suitable for transformation of multiphase
inhomogeneous CCNA microstructures into high entropy ones. Achieved thermodynamically
metastable microstructures enable the achievement of potential functional properties of
selected alloy due to increased surface area and optimized active centres (Ag, Pd, Pt, Cu, Ni)
for catalytic activity.
In the dissertation explained processes and reactions that occurred in the development of the
microstructure of equi-atomic Ag-Pt-Pd-Cu-Ni CCNA during rapid solidification and ultrasonic
spray pyrolysis represent an important contribution to the field of materials science.

5. Geometric method for solving the rope path curve for cabin deceleration in cable car stationSergej Težak, Kristijan Cafuta, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: In the article “New Technological Approach to Cable Car Boarding”, the authors attempted to correctly design the curve geometrically along which the rope moves through the station during the deceleration of cabins with attaching platforms in a central position, primarily intended for mass public transport. Since the suspension continuously connects the cabin and the rope during cabin deceleration, the rope moves at a constant speed along a special curve that enables the cabin to stop in the central position. This curve is symmetric with respect to the longitudinal axis of the station. However, the authors found that in the previous article presenting this cable car system, an error was made in the geometric design of the rope path curve, which the original authors were not aware of at the time. They determined that, in the presented example, a suspension length of 8 m was too short for the combination of rope speed of 5 m/s (cable car speed) and cabin deceleration of 0.5 m/s2. This article revisits this geometric problem in greater detail. The study shows that not every combination of rope speed, suspension length, and cabin deceleration in the central position functions correctly. First, the boundary conditions and spatial constraints of the rope path curve were defined. Based on the upper bound and lower bound rope path lengths, the optimal or correct shape of the rope path curve was determined geometrically. The study concludes that for a given combination of rope speed (cable car speed) and cabin deceleration, only one suspension length is suitable. In the case of a rope speed of 5 m/s and cabin deceleration of 0.5 m/s2, the correct suspension length is 16.85 m. The authors also found that the result depends on the time interval used in constructing the curve.

6. Identifying key risks for nonfinancial companiesTimotej Jagrič, Stefan Otto Grbenic, Aljaž Herman, Maša Galun, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This month’s edition of the IFAI Global Risk Radar offers a comprehensive assessment of global risk signals, derived from news sources worldwide and IFAI’s expanded taxonomy of financial, operational, environmental, market, geopolitical, and systemic risks. The analysis indicates a marked divergence among risk groups, with customer-facing risks, organisational culture, and operational disruptions exhibiting elevated Risk Frequency Indicators, while environment-related and ESG-linked risks remain in a cooling phase. At the individual-risk level, corruption and fraud, change-management failures, and water-supply crises show the strongest upward deviations relative to historical patterns, reffecting a broader global environment characterised by governance concerns, infrastructure fragilities, and climate-related stress. Several high-frequency indicators display co-movements that align with recent geopolitical escalation, heightened market volatility, and tightening financial conditions in multiple regions. These findings align with recent international policy reports that document persistent inffationary pressures (IMF, 2025), governance-related vulnerabilities (OECD, 2025a), and rising political instability in several emerging markets (World Bank, 2025). For companies, the implications are substantial: a combination of structural shocks, rapid shifts in investor sentiment, and intensifying supply-chain fragility requires a more adaptive and data-driven risk management approach.

7. Identification and prioritization of barriers to the implementation of an asset management system in the healthcare sector using a Delphi-AHP approachDamjan Maletič, Justyna Trojanowska, Mateja Lorber, Matjaž Maletič, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Purpose – An effective asset management system (AMS) is essential for healthcare organizations looking to
maximize value and performance while minimizing risk and cost. This study aims to identify and evaluate the
barriers to AMS adoption and evaluate them from a healthcare perspective.
Design/methodology/approach – The study is based on a combination of the Delphi method and the analytic
hierarchy process (AHP) with 30 participants from various Slovenian healthcare organizations. Through
iterative consensus and prioritization, the Delphi-AHP process resulted in 23 validated barriers, ranked
according to their perceived importance for AMS implementation.
Findings – The resultsidentified key barriersto implementing AMS in healthcare organizations and categorized
them into five dimensions: strategic, human resources, contextual, structural and procedural. The highest ranked barriers were deficient leadership, a shortage of qualified personnel and workforce overload. This
indicates that strategic alignment and organizational capacity are perceived as the most critical obstacles to
adopting AMS.
Originality/value – Thisstudy advancesthe existing literature by addressing a critical gap and providing deeper
insight into the factors that impede the successful implementation of AMS in healthcare settings, a domain
where empirical evidence remains limited. Ključne besede: ssset management, healthcare, barriers, organizational resilience, organizational mechanisms, high-tech industry Objavljeno v DKUM: 09.12.2025; Ogledov: 0; Prenosov: 0

8. A systems perspective on sustainable leadership and innovation capability : building organizational resilience in a high-tech companyNenad Vladić, Damjan Maletič, Matjaž Maletič, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: While previous studies have examined sustainable leadership and innovation separately, limited attention has focused on their systemic interconnection. Building on established
frameworks, this study adopts a systems perspective to explain how sustainability-oriented leadership mechanisms shape innovation capability across strategic, organizational, and
functional levels. Drawing on a single-case study of an information-rich high-tech company, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and internal documentation
to examine leadership practices and organizational enablers that foster innovation. The findings show that sustainable leadership strengthens innovation capability by embedding sustainability values into organizational routines, aligning strategic intent with daily learning, and empowering employees to experiment, collaborate, and share knowledge
continuously. These feedback-driven processes connect strategic intent with operational learning, enabling organizations to adapt and renew. The study introduces the Systems
Framework for Sustainable Innovation Capability (SFSIC), which explains how leadership, culture, and learning interact as interdependent components of innovation capability and
organizational resilience. By framing innovation capability as a dynamic, feedback-driven process rather than a fixed set of determinants, the study advances theory by specifying how sustainability-oriented leadership strengthens adaptive capacity within innovation ecosystems. The study offers guidance for building innovation capability and resilience through aligned leadership practices, enabling structures, and feedback-based learning systems.
