designUHS() now derives the spectral parameters per
ASCE 7-22 Sec. 21.4 (site-specific input): at MCER level,
SMS = 0.9 * max SaM(T) over T in [0.2, 5] s
and SM1 = max(0.9 * max[T * SaM(T)], SaM(1 s)) over [1, 2]
s when vs30 > 442 m/s, else [1, 5] s (new optional
vs30 argument; NULL uses the conservative wide
window). The previous seeding (Ss = Sa(0.2 s),
S1 = Sa(1.0 s), Fa = Fv = 1) matched no ASCE
7-22 pathway for site-specific spectra. ASCE-table products shift on the
order of 10 percent. The Sec. 21.2.3 floor and the Sec. 21.2.2
deterministic cap remain out of scope (documented).designUHS(): the output grid beyond TL was
degenerate whenever TL >= 5 (including the default 8 s),
so the long-period branch (ASCE 7-22 Eq. 11.4-5) never appeared in the
returned table; the grid now samples one octave beyond TL.
Documentation now states precisely which parts of ASCE 7-22 the function
implements (the Sec. 21.4 derivation and Sec. 11.4.5.2 two-period shape)
and which it does not (the Sec. 21.2 floor and deterministic cap).Rrup argument has been REMOVED from
rhoBJ(), fitSaF(), fitDnCurve(),
and fitDnModel(), and from the fitDnScenario()
records contract (a legacy Rrup column in
records is tolerated and ignored). The Baker & Jayaram
(2008) inter-period correlation model has no distance dependence, so the
argument never influenced any result: outputs are identical
draw-for-draw under the same seed. Callers passing Rrup by
position or by name must drop it.Dn_BT07(): restored the published
+ 1.50 * Ts term of Bray & Travasarou (2007) Eq. 5,
previously missing (the function received Ts but never used
it), and the -0.22 intercept for nearly rigid sliding
masses (Ts < 0.05 s). The implementation now reproduces
the worked example published by Bray (2007). Median displacements
increase by exp(1.5 * Ts) (about x2.1 at
Ts = 0.5 s).
geSiteTable() / getSiteProperties():
the Shibata-Soelarno (1975) row of the Ishihara (1996) shear-modulus
table now uses its published LINEAR void-ratio form
F(e) = Ce - e/(1 + e); the quadratic form of the other
models had been applied to it, under-predicting that model by a factor
of about 65 and dragging the Sands-group mean modulus down (about -20
percent in Go for typical sand profiles).
fitModel.Ts(): rebuilt on the classical Rayleigh
quotient with the static-deflection trial shape. The previous trial
shape violated the base boundary condition under package usage and
overestimated the fundamental period of normal (stiffness-increasing)
profiles by tens of percent (e.g. +44 percent on a 200/400 m/s two-layer
column, +27 percent on the vignette profile). The rebuilt estimator is
within -0.4 to -2.8 percent of the exact layered solution across test
profiles and is invariant to the layer ordering of the input. All
Ts-dependent products (site properties, flexible-block displacements)
shift on regeneration.
Vs30toSID(): the class-B lower bound is now 910 m/s
(3000 ft/s, ASCE 7-22 Table 20.2-1), matching the packaged
SiteClass table; it was 900. The class-E row in
SiteClass now prints the correct inequality
(<150 m/s).
Dn_BM19() (and fitDnCurve(),
fitDnModel()): near-fault pulse behaviour is now selected
with the explicit pulse argument (default
FALSE = ordinary motion), matching the papers’ definition
of pulse as a declared property of the record and the authors’
spreadsheet. The automatic PGV > 115 cm/s switch is
retired; PGV remains a required predictor inside the pulse equations,
whose published 150 cm/s sub-regime is unchanged.F_ST20() implements the final 2020 NGA-East ergodic
site-amplification generation (Stewart et al. 2020 linear model and F760
impedance/gradient weighting; Hashash et al. 2020 nonlinear model with
period-dependent reference velocity and PGA-dependent nonlinear sigma).
Coefficients are regenerated from the USGS nshmp-lib machine-readable
table (data-raw/SiteAmp2020.R); the implementation is
validated at machine precision against the OpenQuake
nga_east.py reference functions.
fitSaFMixture() computes site-amplified spectra from
an analytic scenario mixture (one lognormal component per
rupture-variant x GMPE branch, as produced by the DSHA scenario engine).
The composition of the rock mixture with the lognormal site dispersion
is exact: Gauss-Hermite quadrature over the PGA channel plus monotone
mixture-CDF inversion. No random numbers are drawn - outputs are
byte-stable; Sa and SaF are quantiles of the
same conditional demand distribution and AF = SaF / Sa is
the amplification of the p-quantile.
fitSaF() gains a working models menu:
"ST20" (new default) and "ST17". Pass
models = "ST17" to reproduce the 2017-generation
amplification.
F_ST17() sigma corrected: the nonlinear component
now applies the PGA-dependent multiplier of its source model
(sigma_Fnl = sigma_f2 * ln((PGA_3000 + f3)/f3), PEER
2017/05 Eq. 2.5 as implemented by USGS nshmp-lib and OpenQuake). Earlier
versions used bare sigma_f2, overstating dispersion at low
PGA and understating it at high PGA. muLnF is unchanged;
sdLnF now varies with PGA.
F_ST17() family implements
the PEER Report 2017/05 NGA-East recommendations (not Seyhan &
Stewart 2014 as previously documented). The inter-period correlation
model is Baker & Jayaram (2008); it has no distance dependence and
the Rrup arguments are retained for backward compatibility
only.fitDnScenario() fits the Newmark displacement curve
and Monte Carlo draws for a single scenario row (one
(TR, IDg) combination). Returns a list with
curve and draws data.tables matching the
contract of fitDnCurve().
fitDnScenarios() applies
fitDnScenario() over a records data.table of
scenario rows and row-binds the results. Accepts
useParallel and workers arguments for
fork-based parallel execution on multi-core systems.
fitKmaxScenario() fits the seismic coefficient kmax
for a single scenario row given pre-computed displacement draws and
model weights. Returns a data.table with Da,
p, kmax, PGA, Kh,
TR, IDg, and IDn.
fitKmaxScenarios() applies
fitKmaxScenario() over a records data.table
and row-binds the results. Supports the same useParallel /
workers interface as
fitDnScenarios().
fitDnScenarios() now runs Dn scenario rows in parallel
when useParallel = TRUE and workers > 1L.
On systems where fork-based parallelism is available (Linux, macOS),
wall time scales nearly linearly with workers for large
scenario grids. Sequential execution (the default) is unchanged.inst/cran-release.R simplified to a two-phase
source() from the garage canonical scripts
(cran-check.R then cran-submit.R). The prior
inline copy of those steps is removed; the garage copy is the single
source of truth.inst/CITATION: replace
utils::packageVersion("newmark") with
meta$Version so the citation file evaluates correctly when
the package is not yet installed (CRAN pre-test failure).inst/WORDLIST: add 135 domain-specific terms (author
surnames, technical vocabulary, package-internal identifiers) so
spelling::spell_check_package() exits clean. Add
Language: en-US to DESCRIPTION.Vignettes rebuilt for fidelity to the implemented code and the
underlying paper (Verri Kozlowski 2026, working). Hallucinated
cross-references to deleted articles, oqt-pipeline
terminology leaking into newmark prose, and inconsistent
function-name references were removed.
New vignette dynamic-site-response documents the
dsra-side methodology merged into newmark 1.1.0: Ishihara
(1996) small-strain shear-modulus model, Gazetas & Dakoulas (1985)
inhomogeneous truncated shear-beam fundamental period, synthetic-profile
generation via getSiteProperties() /
geSiteTable(), and the ASCE 7-22 site-class utilities
Vs30toSID() / SIDtoVs30().
pipeline vignette rewritten as a function-level
overview of the four library workflows (dynamic site response, hazard
import, displacement curves, seismic coefficient), with a single
top-of-file note that orchestration on a hazard grid (looping scenarios,
persisting tables) is the consumer’s responsibility.
ensemble-formulation vignette now states the
inverse-problem formulation explicitly, documents the BM19 near-fault
PGV > 115 cm s⁻¹ correction and the NFC D100/D50
selector, and lists the operational defaults (Monte Carlo size, k_y
grid, reported quantiles) that the package and downstream consumers
share.
newmark-quickstart vignette: stale links to deleted
articles removed; Next steps rewritten as in-package
vignette() and ?fnname references.
interpolateSaTable() and buildQSpline()
now emit a descriptive warning() when called on a UHS table
with duplicate (Tn, p) rows, pointing the user to the
standard disaggregation key (siteID, ID, Vs30, TR). R’s
cryptic
regularize.values: collapsing to unique 'x' values
warning is suppressed in favour of the new message — it is replaced, not
stacked on top. Numerical behaviour is unchanged: duplicate rows are
still silently collapsed via stats::approx /
stats::splinefun ties = "mean". SoT-validated
bit-identical on clean fixtures (5/5 direct + 36/36 pipeline) and
byte-equal output on duplicated input..summarizeDn(),
.summarizeDnDraws(), .aggregateWeighted()
parameter p.vals renamed to pVals. Producer
.sampleDnScenario() returns the list element under the new
key pVals (was p.vals). Consumers
fitDnCurve() and fitDnModel() updated to read
.sample$pVals. All references are intra-package; no
exported symbol changes signature. SoT-validated (Stage B helpers direct
identity 3/3; Stage C swap-in-place via assignInNamespace
over the 6 affected functions running the full fitDnCurve grid 216/216,
both bit-identical).getDnKy() parameters renamed for STYLE.md
compliance: ky.n → kyN, p.ref →
pRef. Output is bit-identical for any call that uses the
defaults or passes the args by position. Callers that passed by name
must update the keyword. No live caller in the ecosystem
(oqt, research scripts, MCP server, skill templates) was
found to pass these by name; the rename is a clean keyword change.
SoT-validated (Stage A direct identity 27/27 across 3 fixtures × 3 Ts ×
3 kyN values; Stage C swap-in-place via assignInNamespace
216/216 across the full fitDnCurve pipeline).
fitDnCurve() no longer accepts
NS.draws. The parameter was a partial-retention knob
(filter draws to the first NS.draws
realisations) that no caller used; every observed call site set
NS.draws = NS. The default NS.draws = 0L
produced draws = NULL, which silently broke
invertDnDraws() for callers who followed the README
pattern. draws is now always returned as a populated
data.table (or an empty data.table with the
four canonical columns when no model produces output, replacing the
prior NULL corner-case return).
Migration: drop NS.draws = ... from any
fitDnCurve() call. Output for NS.draws = NS
callers (the universal pattern) is bit-identical (verified across
vignette + 2 real UHSTable fixtures × 3 seeds × 2 NS × 3 Ts × 2 NFC × 2
weight sets).
These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
