Evaluating Seismic Resistance and Energy Dissipation of CFRP‐Reinforced Concrete Frames Under Monotonic Loading

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering and Resilience, EarlyView.
“It was found that good ductility can be achieved in CFRP‐strengthened frames, and this result was validated through experimental testing.” ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete structures are increasingly vulnerable to deterioration by steel reinforcement corrosion, resulting in severe loss of fracture strength and service life, particularly in severe ...

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Evaluation of the Adequacy of Design Specifications for Nonstructural Components in a Reticular Structure

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonstructural components (NSCs) installed in large‐span reticular structures were frequently severely damaged during earthquakes, even when the primary structure remained intact. Existing seismic design specifications for NSCs were predominantly developed for upright structures such as multi‐storey buildings and offer no guidance for reticular

Shaking Table Tests and Numerical Analysis of Rocking Vault‐Shaped Segmental Piers Equipped With an Annular Double Sliding System

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To enhance the structural robustness of bridges, a rocking arch‐shaped segmental pier with a double sliding system was previously proposed as a low‐cost solution to protect bridges in developing countries. The rocking behavior is triggered by halting the sliding motion, which increases the horizontal load‐bearing capacity and limits ...

Seismic Behavior of Pile Group Foundations in Soft Clay: Insights from Nonlinear Numerical Modeling

open access: yesInfrastructures
Pile foundations are commonly used to support structures subjected to complex loading conditions. In seismic-prone regions, understanding the soil–pile interaction under cyclic loading is essential for ensuring the stability and safety of these ...

Reliability of Cut Slopes Under Seismic Loading

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 1992
This paper presents a method capable of evaluating the seismic stability of a cut slope formed by strain-softening soil; to date, no method appears to be available for this purpose. The method consists of the following steps : (1) the horizontal vibration of a sliding mass subjected to an earthquake loading is converted into an equivalent single-degree-

Comparison of Seismic Performance Assessment Using Observed or Simulated Ground Motions in Seismic Hazard Analysis and Ground Motion Selection

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper illustrates opportunities for the use of simulated ground motions in seismic performance assessment – from seismic hazard, ground‐motion selection, response history analysis, and seismic demand hazard calculation. The illustration is through a comparative analysis with the conventional alternative of observed ground motions.
