Numerical Simulation of Post‐Yield Hysteretic Behavior of Lap‐Spliced Reinforced Concrete Bridge Pier Walls Under Earthquake Loading

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1356-1376, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete pier walls designed before the 1970s often incorporate lap splice in potential plastic‐hinge regions. Previous experimental tests indicate that most of pier walls experienced post‐yield lap splice failure, necessitating a modeling approach that captures not only lap splice strength but also deformation capacity.

Seismic Fragility Analysis of Containment Structures in Nuclear Power Plants Considering Alkali‐Silica Reaction

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1467-1487, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study quantifies the influence of alkali‐silica reaction (ASR) on the seismic fragility of prestressed concrete containment structures in nuclear power plants (NPPs). Global collapse was considered as the governing failure mode to maintain consistency with current risk assessment frameworks, and was captured using a finite element model ...

Achieving Functionality Targets for Seismically Isolated Steel Buildings Using Gaussian Process Modeling

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
As seismic design paradigms shift toward functional recovery, there is a need for efficient methods to achieve desired decision variables (DVs), such as probability of replacement, repair cost, and downtime of the building, for seismically isolated buildings.

Operational Near Real Time Global Riverine Sediment Flux Estimates From Space

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract We present global estimates of riverine sediment flux derived from an open‐source suite of algorithms using the Harmonized Landsat Sentinel (HLS) and discharge products. We estimated Sediment Concentration (suspended sediment concentration [SSC]) via neural networks, trained and tested on matchups of in situ and HLS data, obtaining a median ...

Improved Dust Microphysical Retrieval From LiDAR by Introducing a Priori Constraints From In Situ and Laboratory Measurements

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract The accuracy of height‐resolved dust microphysical retrieval from LiDARs has been greatly improved by the recently developed BOREAL (Basic algOrithm for REtrieval of Aerosol with LiDAR) algorithm which describes non‐spherical dust particles with the Irregular‐Hexahedral (IH) model and inverts 3β (backscattering at 355, 532, and 1,064 nm) + 2α (
