From a Probabilistic PBEE Framework to Risk‐Targeted Structural Design With Cascading Hazards: Engineering Application for Seismic–Radiological Safety

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 12, Page 3098-3114, 10 October 2026.
ABSTRACT Earthquake‐induced damage of structures can trigger cascading hazards, linking structural performance to nonstructural consequences. In current engineering practice, these two aspects are typically addressed separately, limiting the ability to account for such coupled effects in design.

Engineering Applications Using Probabilistic Aftershock Hazard Analyses: Aftershock Hazard Map and Load Combination of Aftershocks and Tsunamis

open access: yesGeosciences, 2017
After the Tohoku earthquake in 2011, we observed that aftershocks tended to occur in a wide region after such a large earthquake. These aftershocks resulted in secondary damage or delayed rescue and recovery activities.

Evolution of aftershock sequence of December 20, 2018 strong earthquake (Mw = 7.3) and its reflection in Vp/Vs-parameter field

open access: yesВестник Камчатской региональной ассоциации "Учебно-научный центр". Серия: Науки о Земле, 2020
The paper presents the results of calculations, as well as further analysis of the kinematical parameter Vp/Vs in the source area of the strong earthquake (Mw = 7.3), which occurred on December 20, 2018 at the junction of the Kurile-Kamchatka and ...

SEISMIC FRAGILITY EVALUATION OF SOIL-PILE-STRUCTURE INTERACTION EFFECTS SUBJECTED TO MAINSHOCK-AFTERSHOCK RECORDS

open access: yesInternational Journal for Computational Civil and Structural Engineering, 2023
In most current seismic design on bridges, only mainshock actions are considered without incorporating the effect of mainshock-aftershock (MA) sequences and interaction soil-pile.However, a large mainshock usually triggers numerous aftershocks in a ...

Analytical Framework for System‐Level Fragility Surfaces of Reinforced Concrete Bridges Under Mainshock‐Aftershock Sequences

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 13, Page 3264-3284, 25 October 2026.
ABSTRACT Conventional single intensity measure (IM) fragility approaches with simplified component dependency assumptions overlook the progressive damage accumulation and evolving inter‐component correlations that govern system behavior under mainshock‐aftershock (MSAS) loading.

Global survey of aftershock area expansion patterns

open access: yes, 1985
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 ...

Insights into the Aftershocks and Inter-Seismicity for Some Large Persian Earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2015
This paper focuses on aftershocks behavior and seismicity along some co-seismic faults for large earthquakes in Iran. The data of aftershocks and seismicity roughly extracted from both the Institute of Geophysics the University of Tehran (IGUT) and ...

A Novel Method for Constructing Main-Aftershock Sequences and Its Application in the Global Damage Accumulation Effects Analysis of Gravity Dams

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2021
The traditional linear elastic and Drucker–Prager (DP) models cannot truly reflect the strong nonlinear characteristics of the concrete and rock foundation of the dam under earthquake.

Energy‐Based Characterisation of Earthquake Damage in Masonry Infills Through Combined In‐Plane and Out‐of‐Plane Experimental Tests

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 13, Page 3302-3318, 25 October 2026.
ABSTRACT The seismic capacity of structural systems/members is usually defined in terms of deformation thresholds. Although this is effective in many circumstances, disregarding cumulative quantities such as hysteretic energy may be ineffective when low‐cycle fatigue is relevant (e.g., long‐duration ground motions, very soft soils, ground‐motion ...
