A Performance‐Based Earthquake Fatality Modeling Framework Using Collapse Volume Ratios
Conventional earthquake fatality models are commonly implemented using a binary representation of building collapse, an assumption that overlooks severe failure modes and systematically underestimates fatalities. To address this limitation, this study advances the collapse volume ratio—a continuous metric quantifying the reduction of survivable space ...

Global Kilometer‐Scale Climate Storylines Using Spectral Nudging
Abstract Effective climate adaptation benefits from detailed, actionable information on how specific extreme events are influenced by climate change. Here we present the first global, kilometer‐scale coupled modeling framework that enables counterfactual reconstructions of recent weather events, including extremes, in different climates.

Seismic Performance Evaluation of a Fully Integral Concrete Bridge with End-Restraining Abutments
A fully integral bridge that is restrained at both ends by the abutments has been proposed to form a monolithic rigid frame structure. Thus, the feasible horizontal force effect due to an earthquake or vehicle braking is mainly prevented by the end ...

Abstract The launch of the Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution (TEMPO) mission in 2023 marked a new era in air quality monitoring by providing high‐frequency, geostationary observations of column NO2 across most of North America. In this study, we present the first implementation of a TEMPO NO2 data assimilation system using the Joint ...

Modeling the Seasonality of Wind‐Driven Hydrocarbon Waves in Titan's Polar Lakes
Abstract Titan, the only body in the solar system aside from Earth with standing liquids on its surface, has high‐latitude hydrocarbon lakes and seas. As Titan's atmosphere generates light winds, there should be waves on the surface of these lakes and seas, yet, direct wave observations are scant.

Modeling joints of moment-resisting steel frames for nonlinear static pushover analysis
The effect of the real behaviour of steel joints on the seismic response of steel moment-resisting frames has long been recognised as a crucial aspect in ensuring a safe structural response. Predicting the behaviour of steel joints under cyclic loading can be quite complex and impractical in engineering practice.

APPLICATION OF DIFFERENT SEISMIC ANALYSES TO RC STRUCTURES [PDF]
Static and dynamic methods of nonlinear seismic analysis for reinforced concrete non-seismic buildings are presented in this paper. The ICONS experimental model was used on a reinforced concrete four-story frame with three bays, which was calibrated with

Nonlinear static analysis of a pile-supported wharf
The aim of this paper is to carry out a nonlinear static analysis using a case study of a pile-supported wharf in a new oil tankers port. The seismic activity in this area is very intense with the peak ground acceleration of 0.55 g; for this reason, it ...
