Seismic Performance and Generalized Damage Risk of Modular Cross Laminated Timber Houses Across Ten United States Cities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 687-703, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Housing shortages in the United States and the pursuit of sustainable and resilient communities have positioned cross‐laminated timber (CLT) housing as a promising alternative due to the ability to design for modularity, ease of construction, and low embodied carbon performance.

Structural Health Monitoring of a Unidirectional Isolation Bridge: Bidirectional Seismic Behavior, Stochastic Model Updating, and Prediction

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 759-780, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate mechanical characterization of civil engineering structures after construction remains challenging due to the unique complexities of each structure, including geometric configurations, imperfect design modeling assumptions, soil conditions, and pervasive uncertainties in actual operational environments. Leveraging actual measurements,

Seismic Site Effects in Owhiro Bay Quarry, Wellington: Field Observations and Numerical Modelling

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Local topography and geology are well known factors affecting the intensity of seismic shaking. We have investigated the seismic site effects at a site of the Owhiro Bay Quarry in Wellington, New Zealand, using instrumental records and numerical models.

Newly Discovered Active Faults in the Wairarapa Valley: Implications for Multi‐Fault Rupture and Kinematics in the Southern North Island, Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Active fault locations and constraints on the timing and size of earthquakes are important for understanding and mitigating seismic hazard in Aotearoa New Zealand. However, historical and instrumental records are too short to provide these data on most earthquake‐generating faults. Light detection and ranging (lidar) data provide us with the ability to
