ABSTRACT In February 2023, a comprehensive series of shaking table tests were conducted at the E‐Defense facility, the world's largest three‐dimensional earthquake simulator, on a full‐scale 10‐story steel moment‐resisting frame supplemented with BRBs.

ABSTRACT We perform probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) in the Shillong Plateau by clubbing the up‐to‐date earthquake data and seismotectonic properties of the study area. Twenty‐one areal seismic sources are delineated based on the updated earthquake catalog, tectonic, and fault plane solutions.

What Controls Variations in Aftershock Productivity?
The number of aftershocks increases with mainshock size following a well-defined scaling law. However, excursions from the average behavior are common.

The April 25, 2015 Mw 7.9 Gorkha earthquake in Nepal was characterized by a peak slip of several meters and persisting aftershocks. We report here that, in addition, a dense seismic swarm initiated abruptly in August 2017 at the western edge of the ...

Abstract This study evaluates the seismic performance of elevated reinforced concrete (RC) water tanks in the Elbistan region following the February 6, 2023 Kahramanmaras–Elbistan earthquakes. Field investigations, visual damage surveys, non‐destructive testing (ultrasonic pulse velocity—UPV), concrete compressive strength measurements, peak ground ...

On the Duration Time of Aftershock Activity [PDF]
In order to discriminate between a period of aftershock activity and a period of usual seismic activity, it is important to know how long the aftershock activity continues. The aftershock activity of the Fukui earthquake (M7.1) which occurred in 1948 was

Abstract Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology was evaluated as a method for electronically tracking human remains and associated identifying information during mass fatality incidents. Conventional tags are prone to physical damage and failure, which can compromise identification processes and hinder the repatriation of bodies.

Global survey of aftershock area expansion patterns
We developed an objective method to define the aftershock areas of large earthquakes as a function of time after the main shock. The definition is based upon the amount of energy released by aftershocks, the spatial distribution of the energy release is ...

The ANT‐Mobilities Framework: Transectionality and a Post‐Materialist Historical Sociology
ABSTRACT The ANT‐Mobilities framework synthesizes Actor‐Network Theory, the mobilities paradigm, and historical sociology to analyze complex social transformations. This paper develops the framework through empirical engagement with post‐disaster rehabilitation networks following the 2005 Pakistan earthquake, demonstrating how crisis contexts generate ...

Aftershock Sequence Selection Code (CHURCHILL_aftershockselect)
This python code selects aftershock sequences for moderate-large mainshocks using three methods: our own 2D and 3D methods, and an external Nearest Neighbour Declustering (NND) method. Methods are explained in the accompanying paper by Churchill, Werner,
