2025 U.S. Geological Survey National Seismic Hazard Model for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands: Overview of Model and Hazard Results

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
The U.S. Geological Survey recently updated the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (PRVI). The first version of the PRVI NSHM was released in 2003, and therefore this 2025 update includes over 20 years of new geologic, geophysical, and engineering data, methods, and models.

Numerical Investigation of Masonry Walls Using Mega-Interlocking Concrete Blocks

open access: yesModelling
Conventional concrete masonry construction consists of an assemblage of concrete blocks, mortar, grout, and steel reinforcement. While effective, this constructive method is constrained by its low productivity. In recent decades, advances in construction
