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

Applied Element Modelling of Out‐Of‐Plane Instability in Boundary Elements of Thin RC Walls
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2800-2817, September 2026.ABSTRACT Recent earthquakes in Chile (2010) and New Zealand (2011) caused extensive damage to buildings featuring reinforced concrete (RC) structural walls, with observed failure modes including out‐of‐plane instability of slender walls. This buckling‐type response under combined in‐plane and out‐of‐plane loading has also been documented in ...

GAMM-Mitteilungen, Volume 49, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract This article investigates the modeling of metallic isotropic porous materials by evaluating and comparing macroscopic and microstructure‐resolved simulation approaches. At the macroscopic level, different variants of the Deshpande‐Fleck (DF) model are implemented to describe the elastoplastic behavior of metallic porous materials.

Quantifying Soft‐Surgery in Cochlear Implantation: Multimodal Data From 30 International Specialists
The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 9, Page 3990-3997, September 2026.Objective data from 30 specialist cochlear implant surgeons showed that surgical handling strongly influences intracochlear mechanical stress during implantation. Surgeons with fewer than 50 lifetime insertions performed significantly worse than more experienced colleagues, while self‐assessment did not reflect objective performance in any group ...
