Scour‐Conditioned Seismic Fragility Analysis of Monopile‐Supported Offshore Wind Turbines
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Monopile‐supported offshore wind turbines (MS‐OWTs) are increasingly deployed in seismic coastal regions, where they face compound risks from earthquake loading and seabed scour. While past studies have addressed these hazards separately, seismic fragility under evolving scour conditions remains insufficiently understood. This study introduces

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel yet practical friction‐based structural component design for low‐damage earthquake‐resistant structures. The proposed connection design is based on a conventional slotted‐bolted configuration with the novelty being the use of loose steel washer plates to establish the friction‐sliding interface.

Seismic Design of Concrete Dams: An Integrated Risk‐Informed Performance‐Based (RIPB) Framework
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper advances the integration of risk‐informed principles into the seismic design of dams—a domain long guided by standards‐based, largely deterministic approaches. While performance‐based earthquake engineering is well established for buildings and bridges, its systematic adoption in dam engineering remains limited. We first address two

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 27-82., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study develops a comprehensive framework for assessing time and state‐dependent aftershock damage accumulation under an M9.0 megathrust interface earthquake in the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ). The framework integrates aftershock probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (APSHA) and state‐dependent fragility analysis (SDFA) within a ...
