Multi‐Stage Shallow Rupture and Pre‐Event Shallow Deformation During the 2025 Mw 5.9 Asadabad Earthquake (Afghanistan)

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The 31 August 2025 Mw 5.9 Asadabad earthquake in eastern Afghanistan caused severe damage despite its moderate magnitude, raising questions about rupture processes and seismic hazard in the southern Hindu Kush. Using Sentinel‐1 InSAR and teleseismic waveform modeling, we reveal a complex, multi‐stage shallow (4–5 km) rupture involving the ...

Active Metamaterials with Tunable Shear Nonreciprocity and Nonlinear Dynamics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 28, 18 May 2026.
Active gear‐based mechanical metamaterials enable simultaneous control of translational and torsional stiffnesses by 30–100×, break shear reciprocity under positive versus negative loads, broadly tune resonant frequencies, and offer programmable dynamic responses.

Socioenvironmental implications of Jatropha curcas cultivation for biodiesel supply in postmining communities

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 1235-1243, May/June 2026.
Abstract The long‐term viability of Jatropha curcas as a biodiesel feedstock has been widely debated. Many early initiatives failed to deliver consistent economic returns despite promising environmental attributes. This study re‐evaluated J. curcas‐based systems within an integrated environmental–economic framework, focusing on their potential role in ...

External Vibrations on Early‐Age Concrete: A Review

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Scientific illustration of external vibration, their influencing properties and effects, possible outcomes and measures adapted. ABSTRACT Early‐age concrete exhibits limited mechanical strength, making it highly susceptible to external disturbances such as vibrations from construction activities, traffic, or nearby machinery which can disrupt internal ...

Appearance Inspection‐Based Typical Damage Investigation of Concrete Curved Girder‐Type Bridges Subjected to Temperature and Vehicle Effect

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Technical approach of the article. ABSTRACT This study focuses primarily on concrete curved girder‐type bridges, which are commonly used for urban roads and highways. Over the last two decades, practical experience in bridge engineering has shown that these bridges have unique mechanical and damage characteristics, unlike conventional straight bridges.
