Modeling the Probability of Tsunami Fire Ignition Based on Data From the 2011 Tohoku and 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquakes, With Recommendations to Reduce Emerging Fire Risk in Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1116-1133, 25 April 2026.
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

Time‐ and State‐Dependent Damage Accumulation Due to Aftershocks Under an M9.0 Megathrust Earthquake in the Cascadia Subduction Zone

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1157-1175, 25 April 2026.
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 ...

Seismic vulnerability of RC structures: Assessment before and after FRP retrofitting (case study) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In structural engineering, seismic assessment of existing structures is a crucial issue to provide adapted decisions in a vulnerability reduction context. Amongst the widely range of technical solutions for structural upgrading, external reinforcement by

Deep Quake Dynamics: A Multimodal Fault‐Aware Approach to Earthquake Magnitude and Occurrence Time Forecasting

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2026.
EQMT integrates earthquake catalog data, fault‐network geometry, engineered features, and graph embeddings in a unified framework for forecasting earthquake magnitude and occurrence time. The framework is designed to reflect inter‐fault spatial dependencies together with temporal seismic patterns, addressing limitations of approaches based only on ...

Landslide Activity in the European Alps ‐ Part 1: A Machine Learning Based Instrumental Catalog From the Analysis of Seismological Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Landslides in the European Alps are a growing concern in the context of climate change. However, landslide catalogs for the European Alps remain incomplete, often lacking precise timing and containing few, if any, entries for remote areas.

Seismic vulnerability analysis of steel buildings in Bogotá, Colombia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A number of mid-height steel buildings have been erected recently in Bogotá. Their seismic risk might be high, given the new microzonation of Bogotá and the lack of previous studies; remarkably, the response reduction factors were commonly obtained from ...

Twenty‐Three Years of Landslide Activity in the European Alps–Part 2: Investigating Triggers and the Impacts of Meteorological Change on Landslide Occurrences

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Landslides represent one of the most devastating natural hazards in mountainous regions, posing significant threats to human safety, infrastructure and ecosystems. It is well established that there is a connection between meteorological factors and landslide occurrences but the mechanisms of these interactions and the impacts of climatic ...
