The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.Passing vehicles generate short‐duration wakes that can be redirected toward a vertical‐axis turbine. The interaction between wake structure, blade count, and rotational speed governs transient torque production. Low‐solidity configurations combined with tuned rotational speed enhance energy extraction under vehicle‐induced gusts.

Energy Consumption and CO2 Emissions Forecasting of Transport Sector Using Machine Learning
Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.The transport sector accounts for approximately one‐quarter of Iran's final energy consumption. The energy demand in this sector has the least variation, with petroleum products accounting for more than 85% of the demand. Furthermore, the accelerated growth of energy consumption and the sector's reliance on fossil fuels, which are the main cause of ...
