Seismic Structural Reliability by Time‐Variant Fragility Functions

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2669-2674, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The seismic vulnerability of aging structures is often represented in the form of fragility curves that vary with time. On one hand, each of these functions is intended to apply if the earthquake hits at the time the fragility refers to. On the other hand, performance‐based earthquake engineering (PBEE) resources to classical probabilistic ...

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2618-2633, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Uneven Impacts of Seawall Heightening on Tsunami Risk Reduction under Rising Sea Levels: Probabilistic Scenarios from the Japan Trench

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2948-2965, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.

Forecasting Volatility of Commodity, Currency, and Stock Markets: Evidence From Markov‐Switching Multifractal Models

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 2905-2941, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper adopts a bivariate Markov‐switching multifractal (BMSM) model to reexamine comovement in SV between commodity, foreign exchange (FX), and stock markets. After the 2007–2008 global financial crisis understanding volatility linkages and the correlation structure between these markets becomes very important for risk analysts, portfolio

Dorso‐Ventral and Night‐Day Regulation of Extracellular K+ Dynamics in Mouse Hippocampal Astrocytes

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Hippocampal astrocytic K+ buffering varies by region and time. Ventral astrocytes show faster K+ accumulation due to reduced Kir4.1 function. Such regional divergence is modulated by circadian shifts in Kir4.1 and gap junction coupling. ABSTRACT Astrocytes regulate extracellular potassium (K+) through multiple mechanisms operating across distinct ...
