Modeling fluid-driven fault slip dynamics with shear-induced dilation and compaction

open access: yesSeismica
The role of pore fluid pressure variations in influencing seismic and aseismic fault slip remains a major challenge in earthquake mechanics. In this study, we employ the Hydro-Mechanical Earthquake Cycle (H-MEC) code to simulate fluid-driven earthquake ...

Surface Consistent Seismic Hazard Assessment in the Shillong Plateau, Northeast India: A Probabilistic Approach Using Multiple Source Models and a Logic Tree Framework

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2855-2879, September 2026.
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.

Sensitivity of 3D Base‐Isolated Buildings to Individual Isolator Variability

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2653-2668, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Variability in elastomeric isolators arises from differences in rubber formulation and curing, leading to noticeable changes in stiffness and damping among nominally identical bearings. While most previous studies have examined global isolator variability associated with environmental or aging effects, individual isolator variability has ...

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2618-2633, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Uneven Impacts of Seawall Heightening on Tsunami Risk Reduction under Rising Sea Levels: Probabilistic Scenarios from the Japan Trench

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2948-2965, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.

Dynamic earthquake rupture simulations in the Sea of Marmara

open access: yes, 2020
The 1912 Mürefte and 1999 Izmit M_w7.4 earthquakes are the last devastating events of the western and eastern sections of the Marmara region, respectively. The center of the Sea of Marmara, the region between locations of these two earthquakes, is prone to creating another large earthquake.

A Geometrically Regularized Gradient‐Damage Model With Orthogonality‐Based Energy Split for Dynamic Anisotropic Compression‐Shear Fracture

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 13, Page 5185-5212, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel geometrically regularized gradient‐damage model for simulating dynamic mixed‐mode fracture in orthotropic materials with tension–compression asymmetry. In this model, a thermodynamic framework is formulated by incorporating damage dissipation into internal energy evolution, from which the constitutive relation and ...

Deformation Patterns and Rupture Mechanisms of the Longitudinal Valley Fault in Eastern Taiwan: Insights From Three‐Dimensional Discrete Element Modeling

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Active faults exhibit complex geometric features, with rupture processes controlled by the coupled effects of tectonic loading, fault geometry, and internal displacement heterogeneity. To elucidate the interrelationship between long‐term deformation, stress redistribution, and rupture evolution, we constructed a three‐dimensional numerical ...
