Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Estimating Mercury's radial contraction is key to understanding the planet's geodynamic evolution. Contraction has been inferred from mapped shortening structures, whose heterogeneous distribution contradicts the isotropic contraction expected from global cooling.

Seismic timber concentric braced frames with steel link: design and analysis
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1287-1290, September 2026.Abstract The seismic performance of dissipative timber structures is strongly influenced by the elastic‐fragile behavior of the material and the dissipation capacity is generally concentrated in steel connections, as indicated in the current seismic standards for timber structures.

Seismic resilience design of steel bridge using pushover analysis
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 2617-2622, September 2026.Abstract Resilience –based design of steel bridge demands analytical approaches capable of capturing inelastic behavior and identifying retrofit needs under seismic loading. Seismic resilience refers to the ability of a structure to withstand, adapt to, and quickly recover from the effects of an earthquake.

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2837-2854, September 2026.ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Seismic Structural Reliability by Time‐Variant Fragility Functions
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2669-2674, September 2026.ABSTRACT The seismic vulnerability of aging structures is often represented in the form of fragility curves that vary with time. On one hand, each of these functions is intended to apply if the earthquake hits at the time the fragility refers to. On the other hand, performance‐based earthquake engineering (PBEE) resources to classical probabilistic ...

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2618-2633, September 2026.ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2760-2780, September 2026.ABSTRACT This study investigates the seismic response of moment‐resisting frames retrofitted with a stepping rocking wall, with emphasis on weak‐story mitigation and residual drift reduction under both ordinary and pulse‐like ground motions. Nonlinear response‐history analyses are conducted on 9‐story and 20‐story SAC Los Angeles frames.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2897-2915, September 2026.ABSTRACT Estimation of the time required for damaged building components to return to their pre‐earthquake conditions through repair is a critical element in assessing the seismic resilience of buildings, and it requires consideration of uncertainty.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2930-2947, September 2026.ABSTRACT Self‐centering rocking structures outperform conventional ones since they show zero post‐earthquake damage and excellent recentering; however, their applications remain limited due to concerns that rocking is extremely sensitive and nonrepeatable. This paper investigates the repeatability and parasitic out‐of‐plane motion of controlled rocking

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.Numerical modelling of earthquake‐induced progressive rock slope damage in the paraglacial Serpentine valley, Prince William Sound, Alaska. Repeated seismicity generates rock mass damage that may have conditioned areas of the slope for failure during present‐day ice retreat.
