Contemporary disasters may not kill more women than men: an empirical inquiry into sex‐differentiated fatalities in the twenty‐first century

Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the claim that women are disproportionately more likely to die in disasters by reviewing existing data sources and compiling new datasets on sex‐differentiated disaster fatalities in the twenty‐first century. The analysis is structured by disaster type, covering geophysical, meteorological, climatological, hydrological,

Evaluation of Modeling Assumptions for Predicting Structural Damage and Train Derailment Under Earthquake Loading

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 7, Page 1514-1532, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid development of new railway networks and the aging of existing infrastructure in seismic‐prone regions continue to motivate the need for efficient methods to simulate the dynamic behavior of coupled train track structure systems. While detailed train–structure interaction (TSI) models can capture complex mechanisms, they are often too

Covariance Structure Modeling of Engineering Demand Parameters in Cloud‐Based Seismic Analysis

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 7, Page 1533-1551, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Probabilistic seismic demand modeling aims to estimate structural demand as a function of ground motion intensity—a critical stage in seismic risk assessment. Although many models exist to describe the structural demand, few consider the covariance among engineering demand parameters, potentially overlooking a key factor in improving the ...

An Overview of Tsunami Hazards in the Southwest Pacific Ocean

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
The southwest Pacific region is geologically complex and exhibits all the principal causes of tsunami generation. While contemporary events and historical catalogs indicate that trans‐Pacific tsunamis have affected this area (∼18% of tsunamis reported globally), it is unique in that a large part of the tsunami effects over the ∼200‐year historical ...

Evolution of Pore Fluid Pressure in an Accretionary Outer Wedge Over Megathrust Earthquake Cycles: The Northern Cascadia Example

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
The evolution of pore fluid pressure ( Pf$P_{\mathrm{f}}$) in the most seaward portion of a subduction accretionary prism plays an essential role in the cycle of tsunamigenic earthquakes. Based on recent geophysical observations, here we propose a testable conceptual model for this evolution for northern Cascadia offshore of Washington.
