Direction‐Aware Period Prediction for Seismic Risk Assessment and Application to an Urban Tall Building Portfolio in China

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reliable estimation of the principal periods is essential for regional seismic risk assessment (RSRA) of urban building portfolios. For tall buildings, however, existing period‐prediction formulas are constrained by the lack of representative data, while building translational azimuths are neglected despite their importance for regional ...

On-line seismic hazard data for the new Italian building code

, 2007
The probabilistic seismic hazard of Italy was assessed in 2004 to match the requirements of the new seismic provisions. This such map, now recognized as the official reference for design according to the building and administrative issues, is the result ...

A Parametric Computational Framework for Modeling and Seismic Design of Post‐Tensioned Mass Timber Rocking Walls

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐tensioned cross‐laminated timber (PT‐CLT) rocking walls offer a compelling seismic system combining self‐centering behavior with energy dissipation. However, progress in their performance assessment and design has been limited by the lack of a comprehensive parametric modeling tool, as exists for steel or reinforced concrete systems. This

Optimization of Blasting‑Induced Roof Cutting Parameters in Key Stratum and Its Application in Gob‑Side Entry Retention Technology

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study addresses hard roof coal seam conditions by optimizing key stratum blasting‐cutting parameters through theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and field tests. It proposes calculation methods for blast hole spacing and delay timing based on stress wave theory, controlling roadway deformation within 35 mm, thereby enhancing resource ...

Study on Fluid Pressure in Tubing, Dynamic Stress in Reservoir, and Fracture Propagation Morphology During Variable‐Rate Hydraulic Fracturing

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Variable‐rate hydraulic fracturing can induce unsteady flow in the tubing, thereby generating fluctuating fluid pressure near the bottom‐hole reservoir. Dynamic stress is generated in the reservoir under the action of fluctuating fluid pressure and propagates as stress waves.

Deterministic Cost Estimation Approaches for Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage: A Review

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is regarded as a connection between traditional, high‐emission sectors and future green energy. This study encompasses literature from 2003 to early 2026 to review methodologies and formulae used for cost estimating in the various segments of carbon capture, transport, utilization, and storage ...

Miocene to Quaternary Tectonostratigraphic Evolution of the Northern Section of the Burdur‐Fethiye Shear Zone, South‐Western Türkiye

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
New zircon ages reveal that lacustrine sedimentation initiated in the Late Miocene (Messinian), revising earlier Pliocene age assignments. The study results support the interpretation of the northern BFSZ as a broad left‐lateral transtensional shear zone rather than a discrete sinistral fault or simple extensional graben array.

Score Reliability and Validity of a Mexican Dialect Spanish Translation of the Flourishing Scale With Mexican Earthquake Survivors

Journal of Counseling &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Flourishing Scale (FS) scores have demonstrated acceptable psychometric properties in general adult populations, but no previous research has validated its use among natural disaster survivors. This study examined the reliability, validity, and measurement invariance of a Mexican dialect Spanish translation of the FS in 289 Mexican ...
