Sensitivity of 3D Base‐Isolated Buildings to Individual Isolator Variability

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2653-2668, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Variability in elastomeric isolators arises from differences in rubber formulation and curing, leading to noticeable changes in stiffness and damping among nominally identical bearings. While most previous studies have examined global isolator variability associated with environmental or aging effects, individual isolator variability has ...

Concept, Tests, and Optimum Design of Novel Negative Stiffness Friction Dampers for Seismic Protection of Long‐Span Bridges

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2719-2741, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Viscous dampers (VDs) are widely used to mitigate the excessive responses of long‐span bridges. However, VDs face some intricate challenges in engineering practices, including high damping coefficient requirement, potential base shear amplification and tremendous damping force under high velocity. To address these issues, this study develops a

Effects of Wall‐to‐Floor Interactions on Seismic Response of Platform‐Type CLT Buildings

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2880-2896, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Platform‐type cross‐laminated timber (CLT) buildings feature discontinuous wall segments supported by CLT floors. In practice, CLT floors are often treated as rigid diaphragm, yet the wall‐to‐floor interactions (WFIs) associated with flexibility of floors remain insufficiently investigated during seismic performance assessment.

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, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2897-2915, September 2026.
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.

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

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2948-2965, September 2026.
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.

From One Disaster to Another: Environmental Memory, Automobility, Suburbanisation and the Canterbury Earthquakes 2010–2011

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 3, September 2026.
Broadly taking up Amitav Ghosh's (2016) comment that when it comes to climate change ‘we seem to learn nothing; our historical imagination is very limited’, this article argues that disregarding environmental memory, and past knowledge to plan a more resilient future, the Canterbury Earthquakes 2010–2011 continued and enabled suburbanisation and an ...

Five‐year follow‐up of the risk factors for psychological distress in youth after the Great East Japan Earthquake and nuclear disaster: The Fukushima Health Management Survey

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences Reports, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Aim This study examined the longitudinal association between age and mental health status to identify the risk factors for severe psychological distress in youth who experienced the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011. Methods A two‐wave longitudinal study was conducted using data from the Mental Health and Lifestyle Survey of Japan after the ...
