Relative Tsunami Hazard From Segments of Cascadia Subduction Zone For Mw 7.5–9.2 Earthquakes

Geophysical Research Letters, 2021
Tsunamis from earthquakes of various magnitudes have affected Cascadia in the past. Simulations of Mw 7.5–9.2 earthquake constrained by earthquake rupture physics and geodetic locking models show that Mw ≥ 8.5 events initiating in the middle segments of ...

Selection of earthquake ground motions for multiple objectives using genetic algorithms [PDF]

, 2019
Existing earthquake ground motion (GM) selection methods for the seismic assessment of structural systems focus on spectral compatibility in terms of either only central values or both central values and variability.

Encapsulating Textiles with Dynamic Covalent Networks for Sustainable and Efficient Oil Spill Cleanup

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By encapsulating industrially relevant fabrics with dynamic imine networks, we show that the resulting composites exhibit exceptional oil absorbtion capability and chemical recyclability. It is poised for sustainable oil spill cleanup. ABSTRACT The development of high‐performance sorbents for oil spill remediation is highly desirable, which now calls ...

Justice, Charity, and Disaster Relief: What, if Anything, Is Owed to Haiti, Japan and New Zealand? [PDF]

, 2012
Whenever fellow humans suffer due to natural catastrophes, we have a duty to help them. This duty is not only acknowledged in moral theory, but also expressed in ordinary people’s reactions to phenomena such as tsunamis, hurricanes, and earthquakes ...

Tunable Plug‐and‐Play Meta‐Nanogenerator Materials for Multi‐Range Force Measurements

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The multifunctional and tunable meta‐nanogenerator material system combines a mechanical metamaterial and a triboelectric nanogenerator enabling self‐powered, real‐time force sensing across application‐specific ranges. Geometrical tuning adjusts stiffness and the force sensing range, while modular integration streamlines assembly.

Tsunami simulations of mega-thrust earthquakes in the Nankai–Tonankai Trough (Japan) based on stochastic rupture scenarios [PDF]

, 2017
In this study, earthquake rupture models for future mega-thrust earthquakes in the Nankai-Tonankai subduction zone are developed by incorporating the main characteristics of inverted source models of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake.

The Phenotypic Spectrum of Sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob Disease Cortical Subtype

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The objective of this study was to characterize the phenotypic spectrum of the rare sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease cortical subtype (sCJDMM/MV2C) in a large multicentric autopsy cohort. Methods We evaluated clinical histories, biofluid markers, brain diffusion‐weighted (DW)‐magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and electroencephalogram (EEG ...

Sensitivity Analysis of Engineering Demand Parameters: Empirical and Analytical Approaches to Structural Loss Estimation [PDF]

Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering
Variations in the engineering demand parameter (EDP) of a region significantly affect the fragility curve, which is believed to impact the estimation of earthquake losses; hence, there is a need to adjust for different regional characteristics.

Simplified Estimation of Economic Seismic Risk for Buildings [PDF]

, 2004
A seismic risk assessment is often performed on behalf of a buyer of commercial buildings in seismically active regions. One outcome of the assessment is that a probable maximum loss (PML) is computed.
