Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1467-1487, May 2026.ABSTRACT This study quantifies the influence of alkali‐silica reaction (ASR) on the seismic fragility of prestressed concrete containment structures in nuclear power plants (NPPs). Global collapse was considered as the governing failure mode to maintain consistency with current risk assessment frameworks, and was captured using a finite element model ...

The Effects of the Choice of Liquefaction Criteria on Liquefaction in Soils with Plastic Fines
JCyclic triaxial tests are widely used in laboratory studies to assess the liquefaction susceptibility of soils. Although standardized procedures exist for conducting these tests, there is no universally accepted criterion for defining liquefaction.

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.This study investigates the vertical dynamic response of a 52‐story high‐rise building in downtown Los Angeles using small‐magnitude earthquake data recorded by the Community Seismic Network. While seismic design traditionally emphasizes horizontal ground motion, vertical accelerations can have a significant impact on tall structures, leading to ...

Evaluation of Excess Pore Water Pressure Build-up During Cyclic Triaxial Tests on a Non-plastic Silt
Düzce Üniversitesi Bilim ve Teknoloji Dergisi, 2018 Cyclicloading is responsible for pore water pressure buildup, which may later cause liquefactionand surface settlements. Recent studies emphasize that as the pore waterpressure equalizes to initial confining stress, cyclic stress ratio andrelative ...

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 1524-1533, April 2026.Abstract Purpose This study aims to test whether week‐long wrist accelerometry combined with deep learning can (i) distinguish healthy individuals from people with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), (ii) separate prodromal KOA from established KOA, and (iii) identify individuals who will receive a KOA diagnosis within 5 years.

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 5, Page 4102-4126, 10 March 2026.Comparison of experimental and model‐predicted erosion rates for carbon fibre‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass fibre‐reinforced polymer (GFRP) under low‐velocity (2 m/s) and at varying angles and sand concentrations (0.0, 0.05, 0.4 g/L). The results demonstrate good agreement between experimental data and model predictions across different erosive ...
