Seismic Structural Response and Loss Estimation for Dense Urban Districts Using Neural Network Parameterized Gaussian Process

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 397-412, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Earthquakes pose a major threat to urban areas, causing fatalities, injuries, and significant economic losses. This study proposes a Gaussian process parametrized by deep neural networks (DNN–GP) as an efficient surrogate for assessing seismic losses of building structures at a regional scale.

Tsunami Casualty Risk Assessment Integrating Evacuation Tower Placement, Seismic Road Network Performance Enhancement, and Disaster Education

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 500-520, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Since the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake, tsunami evacuation towers have been constructed in coastal regions based on worst‐case predictions to provide additional safety margins against unprecedented tsunamis. However, the extent to which such assumptions effectively reduce casualty risk remains unclear.

Semi‐Active Movable Shear Keys for Seismic Response Control of Bridges

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 483-499, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The size of the joint gaps plays a significant role in the dynamic performance of bridges. This has recently motivated the consideration of movable shear keys (MSKs), pioneered by the corresponding author, to enhance bridge performance by changing the bridge support/boundary conditions.

Tensile Strength: A Pedologist's Perspective on Variability in Cohesive and Non‐Cohesive Horizons From Brazil's Coastal Tablelands

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 1, Page 36-48, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Previous research has underscored the importance of evaluating soil consistency for accurate determination of cohesive character and mechanical properties. Although qualitative assessments by pedologists are pertinent, they exhibit inherent subjectivity that may compromise accuracy.
