The Seismic Expression of Core Complex‐Style Extensional Detachment Faults in Rifted Margins
Terra Nova, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The identification of core complex‐style extensional detachment faults (CCDFs) in rifted margins is crucial for accurately restoring their stratigraphic and thermal histories. Yet recognising CCDFs in seismic reflection images is challenging due to their faint topographic expression; the lack of associated abrupt offset in seismic reflections;

BuildingsInfilled walls and frames typically employ closely spaced rigid connection, which, under seismic actions, can lead to adverse effects such as amplified seismic responses, overall torsion, and the formation of weak layers in the structure.

Assessment of the in-plane nonlinear behaviour of masonry-infilled RC frames using micro-modelling approaches [PDF]
, 2016 Experimental tests are considered the most realistic approach to assessing thenonlinear behaviour of masonry-infilled reinforced concrete (RC) frames. Therefore,their results can be used to validate the properties of macro-models such as strut-typemodels,

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...
