Weak‐Story Mitigation and Drift Redistribution in Moment‐Resisting Frames Using Stepping Rocking Walls

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2760-2780, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the seismic response of moment‐resisting frames retrofitted with a stepping rocking wall, with emphasis on weak‐story mitigation and residual drift reduction under both ordinary and pulse‐like ground motions. Nonlinear response‐history analyses are conducted on 9‐story and 20‐story SAC Los Angeles frames.

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 ...

Wavelet‐Based Hurst Exponent Estimation

WIREs Computational Statistics, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2026.
The review explores how wavelet‐based methods for estimating the Hurst parameters have developed from their theoretical roots to real‐world applications in fields like biology, engineering, and telecommunications. The review aims to highlight key techniques, compare their strengths and limitations, and point out challenges that still need to be ...
