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, Volume 55, Issue 10, Page 2449-2465, August 2026.
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.

An SSI‐Informed Design for Tuned Mass Dampers With Small‐to‐Large Mass Ratios

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 10, Page 2511-2529, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Tuned Mass Dampers (TMDs) are used to mitigate structural vibrations induced by seismic or wind excitation, by tuning the device to the system's dominant resonant frequencies. However, the TMD effectiveness can be undermined by soil‐structure interaction, which can lead to elongation of the vibration periods and to combined translational ...

An Efficient Quasi‐Static Condensation‐Based Framework for Seismic Analysis of Multi‐Supported Secondary Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 10, Page 2466-2485, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Multi‐supported non‐structural components (NSCs) are prone to seismic damage, yet their response prediction remains challenging when support motions are spatially incoherent. This study proposes an enhanced quasi‐static condensation (EQSC) method for linear, lightweight, dynamically detuned multi‐supported NSCs under the neglect of primary ...

Research on the Critical Mechanical Criterion for Stick‐Slip Instability of Mining‐Affected Normal Faults Based on the Rate‐and‐State Friction Law

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 3935-3947, August 2026.
Mining disturbance tends to trigger fault stick‐slip instability and induce disasters. This paper establishes a mechanical model to propose a critical criterion, which is verified to be reliable via FLAC3D, providing a theoretical basis for early warning of fault slip disasters.

Spatial variability of denudation rates and transient landscape adjustment in low‐deforming mountains (the Strengbach catchment, Vosges Mountains, France)

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
Erosion across the landscape is described at first order by a limited number (nine) of homogenous geomorphological and lithological domains. Using a dense set of basin wide denudation rates, it is possible to retrieve the contribution of each litho‐morpho‐domains as a function of their respective surface.
