Circular Economy in Crisis Contexts: An Assessment Framework for Post‐Disaster Building Stock Toward Strategic Autonomy

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐disaster contexts generate large volumes of damaged building stock with significant, yet often unquantified, circularity potential. Through the lens of strategic management, the circular economy emerges as a transformative pathway to strengthen systemic resilience by reducing dependencies on external resources and mitigating supply chain ...

Bond Formation: Shaken, Not Stirred

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Shaking of seismo‐molecules efficiently transforms kinetic energy into storable chemical potential, unlocking high‐utility Gibbs free energy. This innovative mechanism pioneers uncharted scientific frontiers, introducing fascinating phenomena like seismochemistry, seismochromism, and seismofluorescence that redefine the boundaries of molecular ...

From Responsibility to Resilience to Social Innovation: A Cyclical Theory of Responsible Networked Resilience in External Crises

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT External crises unsettle resources, routines, and what responsible action means. Prior research links CSR to stakeholder support and resilience. Yet these relationships remain fragmented, leaving mechanisms connecting responsibility, inter‐organizational cooperation, resilience, social innovation, and renewed responsibility expectations under ...

Detection of Shallow Tectonic Tremors in Hyuga‐nada, Nankai Trough, Using the Newly Established N‐Net OBS Network

Geophysical Research Letters
Monitoring tectonic tremors is crucial for understanding stress release in subduction zones and assessing megathrust earthquake risk. The Hyuga‐nada region, at the western edge of the Nankai Trough, Japan, provides a natural laboratory for investigating ...

Low-frequency earthquakes along the Ryukyu Islands triggered by teleseismic earthquakes

Earth, Planets and Space, 2021
Tremors and low-frequency earthquakes (LFEs), which occur in the plate interface, can provide useful information about the state of aseismic stress transfer in mega-earthquake fault zones.

Critical expansion points: Mechanical signs of surrounding rock instability

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study proposes the Rock Bearing‐Expansion Model (RockBEM) with critical expansion points (CEPs) to quantify post‐peak damage stages in deep‐buried rock masses via plane strain compression test (PSCT). CEP hysteresis&interval ratios reveal bearing performance dynamics and failure severity, advancing mechanistic insights into deep underground rock ...

Exploring wave propagation behaviors in rock: A grain‐based perspective on mineral structures

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates wave propagation in rock at the grain scale using a grain‐based model, revealing that mineral elastic modulus significantly influences wave attenuation while grain size and distribution have limited effects. A novel peak particle velocity attenuation prediction model is proposed and validated for grain‐scale wave propagation ...

Stress Transfer From Slow Slip Events to Earthquake Swarms as a Cycle in the Southernmost Ryukyu Subduction Zone

Geophysical Research Letters
Recent megathrust earthquakes preceded by slow slip events highlight static stress transfer as a key triggering mechanism. However, there are limited insights into the interplay between static stress transfer and elevated fluid pressure before earthquake

Slow deformation event between large intraslab earthquakes at the Tonga Trench

Scientific Reports, 2021
Slow deformations associated with a subducting slab can affect quasi-static displacements and seismicity over a wide range of depths. Here, we analyse the seismotectonic activities in the Tonga subduction zone, which is the world’s most active area with ...
