American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 2, Page 359-368, June 2026.ABSTRACT Electricity grid infrastructures shape future publics and the contours of political belonging or exclusion, including citizenship. But in fire‐prone, more precariously grid‐connected regions in California, experiments with micro‐ and home nanogrids, subsidized by the state and built in many cases with Tesla products, provide new opportunities ...

Growth and Change, Volume 57, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT This research addresses a critical but underexamined challenge in disaster preparedness: the identification of neighborhoods where evacuation is hardest to accomplish based on physical infrastructure constraints as well as inherent social vulnerability. Existing evacuation approaches emphasize the flow of traffic and the capacity of roads, but

HySEA model verification for Tohoku 2011 Tsunami. Application for mitigation tsunami assessment [PDF]
, 2015 In many aspects Tohoku-Oki 2011 mega tsunami has changed our perception of tsunami risk. The tsunami-HySEA model is used to numerically simulate this event and observed data will we used to verify the model results.

Numerical modeling of tsunami inundation using upscaled urban roughness parameterization
Coastal Engineering, 2017 This study develops and validates a numerical model of tsunami inundation using upscaled urban roughness parameterization and a Drag Force Model (DFM) to simulate the effect of structures as a drag force acting on flow.

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters worldwide. It is also expected to become more severe as climate change impacts are realised. Two‐dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic models are used to obtain reliable inundation estimations.

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.Economic functionality is essential for the recovery of cities and communities following disasters. A crucial factor in reducing business disruptions and guaranteeing their continuity is the capacity of employees to resume work. Facilitating the reintegration of employees into the workforce can expedite their post‐disaster recovery process and assist ...

Tsunami-HySEA model validation for tsunami current predictions [PDF]
, 2016 Model ability to compute and predict tsunami flow velocities is of importance in risk assessment and hazard mitigation. Substantial damage can be produced by high velocity flows, particularly in harbors and bays, even when the wave height is small ...
