The Influence of Fault Rupture Velocity on Ground Motions and Building Demands in the Near‐Fault Region

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
With the recent increases in measured ground motion records for large earthquakes, most notably the 2023 M7.8 Pazarcik earthquake in Türkiye, the potential for pervasive high velocity fault rupture propagation over an extensive fault length has been observed.

Validation of ShakeMaps Created From Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Velocities

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Ground velocity observations generated through a time difference of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) phase observables and orbits have been shown to be comparable to seismic recordings without clipping during intense ground motions. Computing GNSS velocities is also computationally scalable and increases the density of ground motion ...

Development of Liquefaction‐Targeted Design Basis in U.S. Seismic Provisions

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Seismic design criteria for new buildings in the United States have historically focused on life safety performance objectives through minimizing the potential for structural collapse. Development of design criteria to meet this performance objective has evolved over time, leading to the current, risk‐targeted maximum considered earthquake (MCER ...

Probabilistic Hazard Assessment of Coseismic Elastic Surface Deformation for the Leech River Valley–Devil's Mountain Fault System Using Stochastic Source Modeling

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
This study investigates the effect of incorporating the Devil's Mountain Fault (DMF) and its interaction with the Leech River Valley Fault (LRVF) on the elastic surface deformation hazard in and near the city of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Previously, the surface deformation hazard of the region has been characterized by considering the LRVF ...

From Observed Damage to Executable Repair Quantities: The RELA Repair Module

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Postearthquake workflows currently support three distinct classes of decisions: safety clearance through rapid tagging, portfolio‐level economic damage estimation through probabilistic loss models, and field inspections based on locally defined survey forms, which may subsequently trigger project‐specific strengthening through retrofit design. However,
