New study claims that surface hazards, e.g. landslides, can cause earthquakes

A new study conducted by the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL) argues that landslides can trigger earthquakes if they eventually block lakes. This finding is cruci...

Updated National Seismic Hazard Model in the United States

A group, led by the U.S. Geological Survey, presented the most recent version of the National Seismic Hazard Model, that includes several notable discoveries about earthquakes in the United States. T...

Researchers developed AI-based algorithms for real-time structural assessment of bridges

Bridges play a crucial role in India's infrastructure, with approximately 13,500 of them spread across the nation. These structures naturally deteriorate over time due to environmental factors like t...

Deep learning for improved earthquake forecasting was recently proposed by a research team

For more than thirty years, the field of earthquake aftershock forecasting has adhered to conventional models, which has become a restraint in the face of the vast and complex datasets that are avail...

Secondary Moments in Post-Tensioned Concrete Design Technical Article

Steel or Timber? Carbon footprint of truss structures can be reduced with the aid of new studies

Buildings contribute significantly to global warming, not just in their ongoing operations but in the materials used in their construction. Truss structures — those crisscross arrays of diagonal stru...

A 5D platform for earthquake prevention and control

A five-dimensional (5D) smart city earthquake simulation platform was exhibited by its developer, the National Center for Research on Earthquake Engineering (NCREE), at a press conference in Taipei o...

Earthquake prediction in the lab using deep learning

Lives and billions of dollars in infrastructure damage every year is the cost of earthquakes in the United States. Earthquakes can occur at any time, and there is no way to predict them, at least now...

How long can fiber reinforced polymer sustain concrete structures? A question that is answered by scientists

It is a fact that, in modern society, the majority of our infrastructure (buildings, bridges, tunnels, etc.) is made of ageing concrete. A cost-effective method of sustaining this infrastructure was...

Concrete Buildings as Rechargeable Batteries

The energy that comes from the wind and the sun as a renewable source has become a growing necessity. As a result, new ideas about rechargeable batteries have gained ground to capture these intermitt...
