Inferring Io's Internal Properties by Combining Gravity Measurements and Volcanic Activity

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract With its extreme geological activity, Io represents an archetype for tidally heated exoplanets/moons and provides insight into early stages of terrestrial planet evolution. Decades of ground‐based observations and multiple space missions have refined our understanding of Io, yet it remains debated where inside Io the tidal heating takes place.

The Parguera Fault System: Possible Quaternary Reactivation of Bedrock Faults in Southwest Puerto Rico

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We present evidence of a previously unrecognized east‐west‐trending normal fault, named the Parguera Fault, in southwest Puerto Rico. The fault is located at the northwestern edge of seismicity from the southwest Puerto Rico seismic sequence that began in 2019, near the coastal town of La Parguera.

Learning From Crushing Failures: Changes in Physical Properties Reveal the Mechanics of Submarine Carbonate Landslides

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Changes in the physical properties of calcareous ooze between intact weak layers and glide planes within the same stratigraphy provide new constraints on the deformation processes and mechanical factors that control the mobility and erosive behaviour of submarine carbonate landslides.

Seismic fragility analysis of a typical Indian PHWR containment: Comparison of fragility models

Structural Safety, 2016
Abstract The necessity of performing a detailed seismic fragility analysis of nuclear power plant components is well established in the nuclear industry. This paper focuses on the seismic fragility analysis of the primary containment structure of a typical Indian 700 MWe PHWR.

STATE-DEPENDENT SEISMIC FRAGILITY VIA PUSHOVER ANALYSIS

, 2020
Earthquakes are clustered in space and time. This means that structures in seismically active regions can be subjected to multiple consecutive instances of base acceleration, with insufficient in-between time for repair operations to take place. In such situations, buildings may experience degradation of their lateral-force-resisting capacity due to ...

Computationally efficient seismic fragility analysis of geostructures

Computers & Structures, 2009
Seismic fragility analysis is considered nowadays as a very efficient computational tool for determining the structural behaviour over a range of seismic intensity levels. There are two approaches for developing fragility curves, either based on the assumption that the structural response follows the lognormal distribution or using reliability analysis

Seismic Risk Analysis of Steel-MRFs by Means of Fragility Curves in High Seismic Zones

Advances in Structural Engineering, 2014
In this study a steel moment resisting frame in a high seismic prone area in Iran has been remodeled based on different versions of Iranian Seismic Code (Standard No. 2800 1988, 1999, 2005) to estimate the seismic fragility and mean annual loss for the modeled buildings.

Seismic Fragility Analysis of Suspended Ceiling systems

, 2006
The failure of suspended ceiling systems has been one of the most widely reported types of nonstructural damage in building structures in past earthquakes. Despite repeated damage to such systems, there has been no systematic study of their seismic behavior beyond qualification studies for selected manufacturers.

Fragility Analysis and Seismic Record Selection

Journal of Structural Engineering, 2011
This paper explores the influence of spectrum-matched and amplitude-scaled ground motions on the development of fragility functions for structures. The quantification of the influence of these two types of ensembles on ground motions in predicting demands of structural and nonstructural systems is addressed.
