Sensitivity of Risk‐Based Demand Curves to Analytical Fragility Function Fitting Using Multiple‐Stripe Analyses

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 9, Page 2121-2128, 25 July 2026.
ABSTRACT Risk‐based seismic assessments using demand curves that provide mean annual exceedance rates for various system demand levels are increasingly being adopted. Such assessments combine the seismic hazard curve with fragility functions for each demand level, serving as a basis to quantify the average annual losses from system damage. Constructing

Baleen Whale Occurrence in the Waters Off Virginia and North Carolina, U.S.A. From 2001 to 2019

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Eighteen years of visual survey and strandings data were used to describe baleen whale occurrence along the continental shelf of Virginia and North Carolina, U.S.A. This region experiences heavy anthropogenic use, which poses risks for mortality and injury to baleen whales. Between 2001 and 2019, six species of baleen whales were recorded, and

Applying the Bow Tie Method to Evaluate Emerging Risk: The Case of Carbon Capture and Water Stress

Risk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Emerging environmental risks are often shaped not by a lack of knowledge alone, but by fragmented information across systems, disciplines, and levels of governance. This fragmentation limits the ability of local decision‐makers to identify and respond effectively to rapidly developing technologies.

TOWARDS FRAGILITY ANALYSIS FOR CONCRETE BUILDINGS IN FIRE: RESIDUAL CAPACITY OF CONCRETE COLUMNS

, 2014
Fire engineering a building, in general, has one central performance objective – life safety – and property protection is rarely explicitly considered. The engineering is typically based on only one possible fire, which may not represent the most onerous

Ridge Migration and Plate Boundary Readjustments at the Rodriguez Triple Junction

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The Rodriguez Triple Junction (RTJ) marks the intersection of the Indian Ocean's three principal mid‐ocean ridges and is a type locality for Ridge‐Ridge‐Ridge triple junctions. A local seismic network was deployed for 8 months to monitor seismicity around the RTJ and the adjacent Central Indian Ridge (CIR).

Thermal Structure Beneath the Himalayan Orogen Revealed by Pn‐Wave Receiver Function Imaging

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The Himalayan orogen formed through convergence between the Indian and Eurasian plates, and parts of the subducting Indian crust were impeded by the Lhasa terrane and accreted into the orogen. However, whether the Indian lower crust was stripped from the downgoing plate and incorporated into the orogen, and by what mechanism, remain debated ...

Generation Mechanisms of Intermediate‐Depth and Deep Earthquakes in Southwestern Japan: Implications for the Tearing or Thinning of the Pacific Slab

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract We performed a stress tensor inversion using focal mechanisms from intermediate‐depth and deep earthquakes to estimate the stress regime of the Pacific slab beneath southwestern Japan. We focused on the temporally averaged stress field derived from the recent 28‐year data set of the F‐net CMT solutions.
