Sustainable and Seismically Resilient Confined Masonry: Global Progress in Research and Design Practice

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Modern confined masonry (CM) construction consists of masonry walls confined by reinforced concrete (RC) tie‐columns and tie‐beams. When built correctly, CM buildings have shown good performance in earthquake's shaking. Even though CM construction has been practised for almost a century in some Latin American countries, its use and standardisation are ...

‘No Dumping!’ Threshold Work in Voluntary Sector Mental Healthcare in Inner‐City London

open access: yesSociology of Health &Illness, Volume 48, Issue 8, November 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the sociomaterial dynamics of mental healthcare by following metaphors circulating among voluntary sector providers that they were becoming ‘dumping grounds’ within a system in crisis. In the United Kingdom, the voluntary sector has long been called upon to deliver flexible, community‐based care that reduces pressure on ...

Real and Apparent Deviations From Rational Choice

open access: yesKyklos, Volume 79, Issue 4, Page 1153-1178, November 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper offers a taxonomy of real and apparent deviations from rationality. The taxonomy is based on three axes of divides—whereas the axes are successive refinements. The outermost‐axis divide delineates “anxiety‐based choices” from “anxiety‐free choices.” Anxiety‐based choices are real deviations such as the Allais and Ellsberg paradoxes ...

Contrast in the Boundary Layer Convergence Lines at Desert−Oasis Border With Different Vegetation Gradient

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Motivated by an observed asymmetry in boundary layer convergence lines (BLCLs) between the Kubuqi and Ulan Buh desert borders of the Hetao Oasis in northern China, this work aims to document the differences in BLCL frequency and convective initiation and their potential drivers.

The Influence of Sea‐Land Breeze on the Circulation and Air‐Sea Thermodynamics of the Mississippi Sound and Bight

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract High spatial and temporal resolution wind forcing is essential to capture the highly variable atmospheric circulation driving ocean currents in shallow waters and across complex coastal features in the Mississippi Sound. In this study, we examine the sensitivity of modeled hydrodynamics to sea‐land breeze (SLB) circulation. Two versions of the
