Empirical Model of Post‐Earthquake Restoration Time for Building Components Based on Data From the 2022 Fukushima‐ken Oki Earthquake in Japan

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
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.

Repeatability and Parasitic Out‐of‐Plane Motion in Controlled Rocking Structures With Cylindrical Columns: Results From Triaxial Shake Table Tests

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
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

Uneven Impacts of Seawall Heightening on Tsunami Risk Reduction under Rising Sea Levels: Probabilistic Scenarios from the Japan Trench

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.

A Resilience‐Based Reward‐Penalty Scheme for Hardening Electricity Distribution Assets Against High‐Impact, Low‐Probability Disasters

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a novel resilience‐based reward‐penalty scheme (RPS) for electricity grids facing high‐impact, low‐probability (HILP) disasters. By modeling the costs of proactive asset immunization against reactive RPS penalties, our analysis conclusively demonstrates that long‐term investment in grid resilience is the more economically rational

Analysis of the dynamic behaviour of the hangingwall beam during a seismic event

, 1992
Bibliography: leaves 68-72.In a deep-level gold mine planes of weakness oriented parallel to the reef allow the hangingwall to separate from adjacent rock strata. The hangingwall then acts as a separate beam supporting only its selfweight. Mining-induced

Multifactorial Screening for Fine‐Scale Selection of CCS Industrial Clusters and Hubs in Brazil

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Brazil moves toward implementing its decarbonization commitments, carbon capture and storage (CCS) hubs are emerging as a key pathway for large‐scale CO2 abatement in hard‐to‐abate sectors. This paper presents a multifactorial, data‐driven framework to screen and prioritize potential CCS industrial clusters and hubs across Brazilian regions,

Applying b-value statistical variation to seismic hazard analysis [PDF]

, 2017
391-396b-value of the Gutenberg-Richter law is known as a critical parameter in seismic hazard analysis and prediction. b-value is considered as random variable because it is obtained through regression analysis based on available seismic data ...

Evidence From Microscopy and U–Pb Geochronology as a Clue to the Influence of the Cretaceous Magmatism in the Diagenesis of Pre‐Salt Carbonate Reservoirs in the Santos Basin (Brazil)

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Carbonates from Santos Basin revealed U–Pb ages correlated with basalt ages (A), suggesting that they were formed during magmatic events. These events placed hot CO2 in the reservoir, which, when mixed with carbonate‐rich cold water (B), led to thermal convection, enabling the formation of the U contained in the carbonates.
