Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment of Sumatra, Indonesia

Abstract This study assesses probabilistic seismic hazard for Sumatra through a series of progressive approaches. In order to better illustrate possible seismic activity of each seismogenic source—shallow area source, the active fault source, the Sunda trench, and subduction intraslab area source, our analysis implements earthquake catalogs and

Record‐Wise Disaggregated Seismic Fragilities for Interconnected Systems

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 743-758, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Seismic risk assessment studies typically rely on fragility functions/curves to characterize the susceptibility of an asset or a class of assets to damage. These curves are essentially a summarization of responses evaluated on the basis of ground motions with record characteristics and intensities that may or may not be tied to a specific site

Combined Vertical and Horizontal Components of Near‐Source Earthquakes and Impact on Base‐Isolated Structures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 781-803, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Over recent decades, the collection of seismic data has improved the understanding of near‐fault ground motion effects, which involve both horizontal and vertical components. Among the most significant effects are fault‐normal directivity, which concentrates seismic energy into an intense, long‐period pulse, and fault‐parallel fling step ...

Seismic Performance and Generalized Damage Risk of Modular Cross Laminated Timber Houses Across Ten United States Cities

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 687-703, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Housing shortages in the United States and the pursuit of sustainable and resilient communities have positioned cross‐laminated timber (CLT) housing as a promising alternative due to the ability to design for modularity, ease of construction, and low embodied carbon performance.

Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment for the North China Plain Earthquake Belt: Sensitivity of Seismic Source Models and Ground Motion Prediction Equations

International Journal of Disaster Risk Science
In this study, a multi-source data fusion method was proposed for the development of a Hybrid seismic hazard model (HSHM) in China by using publicly available data of the 5th Seismic Ground Motion Parameter Zoning Map (NSGM) and historical seismic ...

Structural Health Monitoring of a Unidirectional Isolation Bridge: Bidirectional Seismic Behavior, Stochastic Model Updating, and Prediction

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 759-780, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate mechanical characterization of civil engineering structures after construction remains challenging due to the unique complexities of each structure, including geometric configurations, imperfect design modeling assumptions, soil conditions, and pervasive uncertainties in actual operational environments. Leveraging actual measurements,

Seismic Site Effects in Owhiro Bay Quarry, Wellington: Field Observations and Numerical Modelling

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Local topography and geology are well known factors affecting the intensity of seismic shaking. We have investigated the seismic site effects at a site of the Owhiro Bay Quarry in Wellington, New Zealand, using instrumental records and numerical models.

Large‐Scale Deformation, Strain Characteristics, and Locking Distribution of the Qilian‐Haiyuan Fault System

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Qilian‐Haiyuan fault system is the main tectonic boundary of the northeastern Tibetan Plateau, controlling the regional tectonic deformation and seismic activity. Extensive Sentinel‐1 SAR data (2014–2021) are used to map the regional tectonic deformation, strain distribution, and locking along primary and secondary faults.

Frozen Soil Hydrological Processes and Their Effects: A Review and Synthesis

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Frozen soils, including seasonally frozen ground and permafrost, are rapidly changing under a warming climate, with cascading effects on water, energy, and carbon cycles. We synthesize recent advances in the physics, observation, and modeling of frozen‐soil hydrology, emphasizing freeze–thaw dynamics, infiltration regimes and preferential flow,
