Sustainable and Seismically Resilient Confined Masonry: Global Progress in Research and Design Practice

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Modern confined masonry (CM) construction consists of masonry walls confined by reinforced concrete (RC) tie‐columns and tie‐beams. When built correctly, CM buildings have shown good performance in earthquake's shaking. Even though CM construction has been practised for almost a century in some Latin American countries, its use and standardisation are ...

Influence of Site Amplification Approaches in PSRA: Insights From Five Different Cities

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Regional and national seismic hazard models used in probabilistic seismic risk analysis often rely on generalized proxy‐based site terms to account for ground shaking amplification. This can result in coarse representations of site response, which can introduce bias or additional uncertainty in the associated risk results.

Suite of Regional Seismic Velocity Models for the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plains (CPVMv2.0): Incorporating Epistemic Uncertainty in Velocity Models

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
The U.S. Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain (CP) sediments are kilometers‐thick, low‐velocity deposits underlain by high‐velocity bedrock that create regional patterns of amplification and attenuation of ground motions. Capturing these effects is challenging because of the limited subsurface information available, particularly the shear wave velocity (VS)

Earthquake Ground Motion Cycle Count Datasets

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
This study presents a comprehensive set of earthquake ground motion cycle count datasets derived from the NGA‐West2 and NGA‐Sub databases. We applied peak counting, mean‐crossing, level‐crossing, and rainflow cycle counting methods to over 275,000 acceleration time series.

Accounting for Biases in the Analysis of Building Damage Data for the 2023 M7.8 Türkiye/Syria Earthquake Sequence

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
In the aftermath of a large earthquake, several practical constraints affect the systematic collection of data for assessing building damage. The available data are therefore typically incomplete, frequently missing key information such as the type of construction, age and geographic location.
