Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 500-520, February 2026.ABSTRACT Since the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake, tsunami evacuation towers have been constructed in coastal regions based on worst‐case predictions to provide additional safety margins against unprecedented tsunamis. However, the extent to which such assumptions effectively reduce casualty risk remains unclear.

Semi‐Active Movable Shear Keys for Seismic Response Control of Bridges
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 483-499, February 2026.ABSTRACT The size of the joint gaps plays a significant role in the dynamic performance of bridges. This has recently motivated the consideration of movable shear keys (MSKs), pioneered by the corresponding author, to enhance bridge performance by changing the bridge support/boundary conditions.

Extreme Potomac Floods at Washington D.C. During the Past 500 Years
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.Abstract Washington D.C. faces one of the highest 100‐year flood risks of any major city along the U.S. East Coast. In addition to storm‐surge inundation during hurricanes and nor'easters, water‐level observations for Washington are strongly skewed by major floods on the Potomac River.
