Evaluation of Earthquake‐Induced Slope Displacements in Greater Vancouver Based on Probabilistic Framework and Using NBCC 2020 and EqDisp Code Platform

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
Engineers frequently use simplified seismic slope displacement procedures to evaluate the performance of earth structures and natural slopes. Current practices typically adopt Newmark‐type and semi‐empirical seismic displacement prediction models (SDPMs) to estimate the seismic slope displacements (D) based on ground motion intensity measures at a ...

A Comparison of Ground Motion Intensity Measures for Estimating Collapse

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
This study examines the use of 15 different intensity measures (IMs) for estimating structural collapse using results from incremental dynamic analysis (IDA). IDA results from 54 numerical models were considered, including (i) 12 reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures, (ii) 16 RC wall–frame structures and (iii) 26 steel buckling‐restrained braced ...

Validation of Physics‐Based Simulated Accelerograms for Seismic Fragility Analyses of Italian RC Existing Building Types

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
This article aims at exploring and validating the use of 3D physics‐based simulated ground motions as seismic input for the derivation of seismic fragility curves based on nonlinear dynamic numerical analyses. Fragility curves are computed for a set of pre‐code (i.e., designed only for vertical loads), reinforced concrete building types representative ...

Experimental on the Residential Building of Earthquake Prone Areas using Shake Table Test

International Journal of Innovative Technology and Exploring Engineering, 2019
This paper highlights the experimental analysis on the Shake Table Test. The Shake Table is an equipment by which real earthquake conditions, forces and vibrations on any structure can be experimented, recorded and studied. When an earthquake occurs over an area it leads to the pause of the normal day to day life, havoc damages, loosing of human lives ...

From Warnings to Actions: Factors Influencing Response to Earthquake Early Warning—A Systematic Literature Review

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
Earthquake early warning (EEW) systems offer critical seconds for protective actions, yet their effectiveness ultimately depends on human interpretation and response. This article presents a systematic literature review of factors shaping public behavior during earthquakes and in response to EEW alerts.

Seismic fragility analysis of an anchored vertical gas steel storage tank using tri-axial shaking table testing

Advances in Mechanical Engineering
Hydrogen and gas storage tanks installed in facilities are typically vertical cylindrical structures made of steel. To allow for the discharge of stored materials, these tanks are anchored onto concrete blocks with sufficient height. However, this design

Patterns and Drivers of Cliff Erosion in Big Sur, California, USA Using Repeat Photogrammetry, 2017–2023

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Seacliff erosion in steep terrain poses major risks to transportation and critical infrastructure. In Big Sur, California, USA, seacliff erosion threatens the sustainability of the central coast stretch of California State Route 1, a transportation corridor that is critical to the region's economy.

Evidence for different seeding activities of misfolded tau in classical and rapidly progressive Alzheimer's disease

Brain Pathology, Volume 36, Issue 3, May 2026.
The study analyzed the seeding activity of misfolded tau protein in Alzheimer's disease and rapidly progressive Alzheimer's disease patients and provides evidence for the existence of different tau assemblies supported by differences in cellular toxicity and morphology of thioflavin T‐positive real‐time quaking‐induced conversion products.

Stress Transfer From Slow Slip Events to Earthquake Swarms as a Cycle in the Southernmost Ryukyu Subduction Zone

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Recent megathrust earthquakes preceded by slow slip events highlight static stress transfer as a key triggering mechanism. However, there are limited insights into the interplay between static stress transfer and elevated fluid pressure before earthquake triggering.
