Slip distributions on active normal faults measured from LiDAR and field mapping of geomorphic offsets: an example from L'Aquila, Italy, and implications for modelling seismic moment release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Surface slip distributions for an active normal fault in central Italy have been measured using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), in order to assess the impact of changes in fault orientation and kinematics when modelling subsurface slip distributions ...

Fast report: the 2025 Dapu earthquake: simultaneous rupture of mid-crust antithetic thrust fault linkages in the fold-and-thrust belt of Southwestern Taiwan

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences
The 2025 Dapu earthquake (ML 6.4), which originated from the mid-crustal depths of the fold-and-thrust belt in southwestern Taiwan, provides a significant case study for understanding fault interactions within active tectonic regions.

Supershear-subshear-supershear rupture sequence during the 2025 Mandalay Earthquake in Myanmar

open access: yesSeismica
We investigated the rupture dynamics of the 2025 Mw 7.7 Mandalay, Myanmar earthquake, using a video recording of surface rupture, strong motion recordings, waveform simulation, and satellite imagery.

Post‐earthquake field assessment and damage correlation of elevated reinforced concrete water tanks in Kahramanmaras/Elbistan, Türkiye

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
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 ...

Earthquakes of the Nepal Himalaya : Towards a Physical Model of the Seismic Cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Home to hundreds of millions of souls and land of excessiveness, the Himalaya is also the locus of a unique seismicity whose scope and peculiarities still remain to this day somewhat mysterious.

Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

Revisiting the 2020 Mw 6.8 Elaziğ, Türkiye Earthquake with Physics-Based 3D Numerical Simulations Constrained by Geodetic and Seismic Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Dynamic rupture simulations of earthquakes offer crucial insights into the physical mechanisms of driving fault slip and seismic hazards. By incorporating non-planar fault models that accurately represent subsurface structures, this study provides a ...

Eco‐ductile design of RC columns: Resolving the conflict between embodied carbon and curvature ductility

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Reducing embodied carbon emissions in structural design is of critical importance in combating global climate change. However, the increased material usage and heavy confinement reinforcement required to meet high ductility demands in reinforced concrete columns directly conflict with environmental sustainability goals.

The use of Terrestrial Laser Scanning in characterizing active tectonic processes from postseismic slip to the long term growth of normal faults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis investigates two main hypotheses regarding uncertainty in the measurement of paleoseismic offsets used to estimate fault activity and paleoearthquake magnitudes on normal faults: (1) That variations in fault geometry have a significant effect

The Multilevel Implications of a Sinn Féin Government in Ireland

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, Volume 96, Issue 1, Page 173-179, January/March 2025.
Abstract The electoral growth of Sinn Féin on both sides of the Irish border has generated much political and academic attention in recent years. The party could form part of the government in Dublin for the first time at the next Irish general election, though that outcome is far from certain.
