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

Geophysical 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 ...

The 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka Megathrust: A Rapid Recurrence With Complex Heterogeneous Rupture

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract On 29 July 2025, a Mw 8.8 earthquake struck Kamchatka, ∼50 km from the 1952 Mw 9.0 megathrust hypocenter, exhibiting a comparable aftershock zone. We resolve the kinematic rupture process and slip distribution by combining teleseismic waveforms with high‐quality tsunami data.

External Vibrations on Early‐Age Concrete: A Review

Engineering 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

Engineering 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.

Low‐Cost Friction‐Based Force‐Limiting Connection With Reduced Sensitivity to Machining Tolerances and Accelerated Repairability

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1270-1291, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel yet practical friction‐based structural component design for low‐damage earthquake‐resistant structures. The proposed connection design is based on a conventional slotted‐bolted configuration with the novelty being the use of loose steel washer plates to establish the friction‐sliding interface.

Generalised Kinematic Single‐Impact and Multi‐Impact Models for Rocking Structures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1179-1202, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The rocking motion is fundamental in earthquake engineering, as it reflects the dynamic behaviour of many structural systems. However, simulating the impacts during rocking motion remains a challenging topic, as they occur in a very short time, generate high impulsive forces, cause sudden changes in velocities and result in rapid energy losses.

Analytical Floor Response Spectra for Performance‐Based Seismic Design of Non‐structural Elements in Reinforced Concrete Frame Buildings

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1292-1312, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Damage to non‐structural elements significantly impacts the seismic performance of buildings in terms of economic and functionality losses. Consequently, performance‐based seismic design of non‐structural elements has become a key pillar of a comprehensive building‐seismic resilience strategy, for instance, through loss‐targeted earthquake ...

Numerical Simulation of Post‐Yield Hysteretic Behavior of Lap‐Spliced Reinforced Concrete Bridge Pier Walls Under Earthquake Loading

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1356-1376, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete pier walls designed before the 1970s often incorporate lap splice in potential plastic‐hinge regions. Previous experimental tests indicate that most of pier walls experienced post‐yield lap splice failure, necessitating a modeling approach that captures not only lap splice strength but also deformation capacity.
