Application of Lean Management in the Military
Lean menadžment se sve više koristi u svim sferama poslovnog svijeta, a prednosti ovog tipa
menadžmenta prepoznale su i različite vojske svijeta. Pomoću Leana se ostvaruje bolji protok
materijala, efikasnije korištenje resursa, a u kombinaciji sa Six sigma-om smanjuje se broj
defekata i drugih neželjenih ishoda. Drugim riječima, korištenjem Lean Six Sigma-e postojeći
procesi se usavršavaju i povećava se njihova efikasnost. Uz to, veliki dio Lean menadžmenta jest
kontinuirano poboljšanje koje se uspostavlja korištenjem Lean alata i ono konstantno donosi
novi napredak, dalje povećava efikasnost i samim time održava poduzeće relevantnim u
usporedbi s konkurencijom. Postoji mnoštvo primjera gdje različite vojske koriste navedene
principe i ostvaruju značajne uštede i unaprjeđuju svoje sposobnosti. Isto tako Hrvatska vojska
može iskoristi Lean za poboljšanje svoje industrije, učinkovitije iskorištavanje resursa i ubrzanje
svih procesa održavanja i proizvodnje.Lean management is used more and more in all spheres of the business world, and the
advantages of this type of management have also been recognized in different armies of the
world. Using Lean, a better flow of materials is achieved, more efficient use of resources, and in
combination with Six Sigma, the number of defects and other unwanted outcomes is reduced. In
other words, by using Lean Six Sigma, existing processes are improved and their efficiency is
increased. In addition, a large part of Lean management is the continuous improvement that is
established by using Lean tools and it constantly brings new progress, increases efficiency and
keeps the company relevant compared to the competition. There are many examples of different
militaries using these principles and realizing significant savings and improving their
capabilities. In the same way, the Croatian army can use Lean to improve its industry, achieve
more efficient use of resources and acceleration of all maintenance and production processes
Prototype of a Software Solution to Support Logistics Requirements
Vojna logistika je znanost i umijeće planiranja, pripreme i provedbe podrške oružanim snagama
u dijelu koji se bavi razvojem, nabavom, skladištenjem, distribucijom, održavanjem i
zbrinjavanjem materijalne imovine te ujedno i digitalizacijom potreba logističkih zahtjeva radi
efikasnije raspodijele informacija. Digitalizacija logističkih zahtjeva doprinosi poboljšanju
procesa u radu, optimizaciji troškova, mogućnosti brže i učinkovitije suradnje, zadovoljstvu
korisnika te efektivnom utrošku vremena. U završnom radu u svrhu digitalizacije vojnih
logističkih zahtjeva osmišljen je prototip aplikacije pod nazivom kadapp za podršku logističkim
zahtjevima koja omogućuje kadetima i zapovjednicima na Hrvatskom vojnom učilištu
pristupanje podatcima i izvršavanje pojedinih zadaća bez obzira gdje se nalazili ili koju funkciju
obnašali. Prototip aplikacije je tehnološki implementiran u tehnologiji React od strane Fakulteta
elektrotehnike i računarstva Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. U radu je opisana razlika između prototipa i
aplikacije, slična programska rješenja, područje vojne logistike i njezine digitalizacije. U radu su
također opisani rezultati istraživanja provedenog s kadetima i predstavnicima časnika kako bi se
ocijenila ideja primjene aplikacije za podršku logističkim zahtjevima u vojnoj izobrazbi i radu.Military logistics is the science and art of planning, preparing, and implementing support to the
armed forces in the development, procurement, storage, distribution, maintenance, and disposal
of physical assets and the digitization of logistics requirements to distribute information more
efficiently. The digitization of logistics requirements contributes to the improvement of work
processes, cost optimization, opportunities for faster and more efficient collaboration, customer
satisfaction, and efficient use of time. Within the final thesis a prototype application called
kadapp was developed to support logistics requirements, enabling cadets and officers of the
Croatian Military Academy to access data and perform specific tasks, regardless of where they
are or what function they hold. The prototype application was implemented in React technology
by the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing. The thesis
describes the difference between a prototype and an application, presents similar software
solutions, the field of military logistics and its digitalization. It also describes the results of a
survey conducted with cadets and officers' representatives to evaluate the idea of an application
to support logistic requirements in military training and work
Hybrid Warfare and the Case Study of the Homeland War
Hibridno ratovanje često je korišten pojam u novije vrijeme unutar političkih i vojnih krugova
posebice nakon ponovne vojne agresije Rusije na Ukrajinu. U ovom radu naglasak će biti na
studiji slučaja hibridnog ratovanja u Domovinskom ratu od strane Srbije prema Republici
Hrvatskoj. Kroz definiranje i analizu pojma hibridnosti i čimbenika hibridnog djelovanja bit će
analizirane prve dvije godine Domovinskog rata (1990.-1992.). Razradom događaja iz prve dvije
godine rata prikazat će se koja su to sredstva i načini koje je Srbija koristila u agresiji na
Republiku Hrvatsku kako bi pokušala ostvarila ideju o Velikoj Srbiji. Postavljena hipoteza u
uvodnom dijelu potvrđena je na temelju iznesenih relevantnih činjenica.Hybrid warfare has been a frequently used term in recent times within political and military
circles especially after Russia’s renewed military aggression against Ukraine. In this paper, the
emphasis will be on the case study of hybrid warfare in the Homeland War by Serbia towards the
Republic of Croatia. The first two years of the Homeland War (1990-1992) will be analyzed
through the definition and analysis of the concept of hybridity and factors of hybrid activity. The
elaboration of the events from the first two years of the war will show the means and ways that
Serbia used in the aggression against the Republic of Croatia in order to try to realize the idea of
a Greater Serbia. The hypothesis set in the introductory part is confirmed based on all relevant
facts presented
Opportunities and Threats for Media Literacy Implementation in the Military
Rad analizira koncept medijske pismenosti i prijetnje i prilike za implementaciju iste u vojnoj
sferi. Evidentno je da se ruku uz ruku s globalizacijom i porastom medijske pismenosti javljaju
izazovi na koje je potrebno dati adekvatan odgovor te podići kompetentnost vojnih osoba za
suočavanje sa suvremenim komunikacijskim izazovima. Važno je da pojedinac zna selektirati
informacije koje su mu dostupne iz medija i znati razlučiti koje su lažne, manipulativne,
dezinformativne ili jednostavno nisu vjerodostojne. Hrvatska vojska trenutno nema razvijenu
strategiju koja se tiče implementacije medijske pismenosti u svoj sustav za razliku od NATO-a.
Važno je educirati pripadnike Hrvatske vojske, posebice časnike o medijskoj pismenosti i svim
izazovima koje ona donosi. Danas kada su informacije nikad lakše dostupne, važno je da
hrvatski vojnik zna kako izaći u javnost s pravovremenim i točnim informacijama u slučaju neke
krize, nesretnog događaja, a na poslijetku i rata.The paper analyzes the concept of media literacy, threats and opportunities for its
implementation in the military sphere. It is evident that along with globalization and the growth
of media literacy, there are challenges to which it is necessary to give an adequate response and
raise the competence of military personnel to face contemporary communication challenges. It is
important that the individual knows how to select the information available to him from the
media and know how to distinguish which is false, manipulative, disinformation or simply not
credible. The Croatian Army does not currently have a developed strategy for implementing
media literacy in its system, unlike NATO. It is important to educate members of the Croatian
Army, especially officers, about media literacy and all the challenges it brings. Today, when
information is never easier to access, it is important that a Croatian soldier knows how to go
public with timely and accurate information in the event of a crisis, an accident, and ultimately a
war
M-84 Tank Steering
Tenkovi su sastavni dio svake suvremen vojske i temelj svih borbenih djelovanja na kopnu.
Pokretljivost je jedna od tri ključne osobine tenka OSRH M-84. U prvom djelu završnog rada
su analizirani tenkovski motori V46-6 i V46-TK za tenk M-84 koji uvelike utječu na samu
pokretljivost. Isto tako teorijski su opisani svi oblici kretanja tenka koji se događaju na terenu
u borbenim situacijama, popraćeni skicama i izrazima te određenim proračunima. Isto tako
prikazana je sposobnost savladavanja prepreka. U drugom su djelu izračunati teorijski
polumjeri skretanja. Detaljno je objašnjen upravljački sustav tenka M-84 uz kinematičke
sheme, skice i slike te isti uspoređen s upravljačkim sustavima ostalih suvremenih tenkova.Tanks are one of the main parts of every modern army, and the foundation of all land
operations. Mobility is one of three key components of the M-84, Croatian main battle tank.
In the first part of this thesis the V46-6 and V46-TK tank motors, which mostly affect
mobility, have been analyzed. Furthermore, all kinds of movement of a tank in combat
situations are theoretically explained, followed by sketches, equations, and some calculations.
The ability to overcome obstacles is shown as well. In the second part theoretic radius of turn
has been calculated. The drive system of the M-84 tank is explained in detail, followed by
kinematic sketches, and pictures and compared with other modern tanks
Testing of Alternative Skid Shoe Material for Bell 206B Helicopter
Tijekom eksploatacije helikoptera Bell-206BIII, a pogotovo tijekom slijetanja, najveće
opterećenje se javlja upravo na njegovom podvozju. U cilju prevencije sanjki helikoptera od
mehaničkog oštećenja, na donjoj površini sanjke ugrađene su obloge s dva navara, koje su
primarno izložene trenju i trošenju. Cilj ovoga rada je provesti laboratorijska ispitivanja
mehaničkih i triboloških svojstava materijala obloga sanjki helikoptera prema dominantnom
abrazijsko-erozijskom mehanizmu trošenja. Osim ispitivanja postojećeg materijala na
karakterističan tip trošenja, također je ispitan i alternativni materijal obloge, odnosno navara na
abrazijsko trošenje. Rezultati laboratorijskih ispitivanja pratećih materijala su analizirani i
uspoređivani, kako bi se došlo do zaključka o opravdanosti primjene pojedine inačice, prema
kriteriju doprinosa produljenju vijeka uporabe te optimizaciji samog procesa održavanja.During the exploatation of the Bell-206BIII helicopter, and especially during the landing, the
greatest mechanical pressure occurs on its landing gear. In order to prevent helicopter skid from
mechanical damage, skid shoes with two welds are installed and subjected to a friction and a
wear. The purpose of this paper is to conduct laboratory tests of mechanical and tribological
properties of the material used to make skid shoes according to the dominant abrasion-erosion
wear mechanism. In addition to testing existing material for a particular type of wear, an
alternative material for skid shoes (welds) is also tested. The results of laboratory tests of the
mentioned materials are analyzed and compared in order to formulate a conclusion on the
justification of the application of each version in accordance with the criteria of contribution to
the extension of the service life and optimization of the maintenance process
