The Ruin of the Roman Temple of Kedesh, Israel; Example of a Precariously Balanced Archaeological Structure Used as a Seismoscope

Annals of Geophysics, 2017
In certain regions and under favorable geologic conditions, precariously balanced rocks may form. These types of unusual formations have been used to estimate yield ground motions.

An ALMA Early Science survey of molecular absorption lines toward PKS1830-211 -- Analysis of the absorption profiles [PDF]

, 2014
We present the first results of an ALMA spectral survey of strong absorption lines for common interstellar species in the z=0.89 molecular absorber toward the lensed blazar PKS1830-211.

Molecular dynamics simulations of positively selected codons in FcγRI reveal novel biochemical binding properties

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...

High‐Frequency Ground Motions of Earthquakes Correlate With Fault Network Complexity

Geophysical Research Letters
Understanding the generation of damaging, high‐frequency ground motions during earthquakes is essential both for fundamental science and for effective hazard preparation.

Comparison of earthquake and microtremor ground motions in El Centro, California [PDF]

, 1973
Strong earthquake ground shaking has been investigated by the study of 15 events recorded in El Centro, California. The strong-motion records analyzed show that no simple features (e.g., local site conditions) govern the details of local ground shaking ...

Properties of strong ground motion earthquakes* [PDF]

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1955
Summary The analysis given here considers that an earthquake fault is formed by the superposition of a large number of incremental shear dislocations the sudden release of which produces the earthquake. It is postulated that during an earthquake the incremental dislocations are released in such a way that the average slip is proportional

Directed evolution of enzymes at the crossroads of tradition and innovation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
An iterative cycle of data‐driven enzyme optimization comprising four stages: genetic diversification of a template enzyme, expression of protein variants, high‐throughput evaluation, and machine‐learning‐guided redesign of the next variant library.

Effect of strong ground motion duration on the expected peak values of floor response spectra in elastic buildings

Japan Architectural Review, 2019
Nonstructural components (eg, suspended ceilings, equipment, and piping systems) resonate with buildings and could suffer severe damage during strong earthquakes.

A Selection of important strong motion earthquake records [PDF]

, 1980
This report is a condensed collection of 45 strong and/or historically important earthquake-generated ground and building motions. These data are presented as accelerogram and integrated velocity and displacement time histories.

Risk Prediction Models for Recurrence After Curative Treatment of Early‐Stage or Locally Advanced Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This systematic review synthesizes prognostic models for survival and recurrence in resected non‐small cell lung cancer. While many models demonstrate moderate to good discrimination, few are externally validated and reporting quality is variable, limiting clinical applicability and highlighting the need for robust, transparent model development ...
