Predicting Seismic Debris Distributions of Collapsed Unreinforced Masonry Structures Through Physics Engines and Machine Learning Algorithms

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
Unreinforced masonry (URM) structures are widespread worldwide, particularly in older urban districts. However, URM buildings—particularly those constructed before the introduction of modern building codes—are highly vulnerable to seismic hazard, and prone to experiencing local and/or global failures when subjected to significant horizontal shaking ...

The Limits of Depoliticized Water–Energy Diplomacy: Insights From the UAE–Israel–Jordan Water‐for‐Energy Deal

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the rise and collapse of the 2021 United Arab Emirates (UAE)–Israel–Jordan Water‐for‐Energy Deal, a landmark initiative that sought to exchange Jordanian solar energy for Israeli desalinated water. Presented as a breakthrough in regional cooperation and environmental peacebuilding, the agreement was brokered under the ...
