Seismic Retrofit for Electric Power Systems
This paper develops a two-stage stochastic program and solution procedure to optimize the selection of seismic retrofit strategies to increase the resilience of electric power systems to earthquake hazards. The model explicitly considers the range of earthquake events that are possible and, for each, an approximation to the distribution of damage that is experienced. This is important because e...
متن کاملUsing Composites in Seismic Retrofit Applications
This report was prepared to provide a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art for using composite materials for seismic retrofit applications. The emphasis is on seismic retrofit of reinforced concrete columns. The report is presented in eleven chapters. Chapters 1–3 provide a basic introduction to composite materials, including discussions on the types of matrix and reinforcement material...
متن کاملExternal seismic pre-isolation retrofit design
This technical note outlines the design of an external seismic pre-isolation system proposed for use in LIGO Livingston. The goal is to reduce the effects of the site’s excess ground noise in the 1 3 Hz frequency band, allowing detector noise performance equivalent to that of the 4 km LIGO Hanford detector. The center histogram in Figure 8 shows the most troubling aspect of the excess noise qui...
متن کاملEnergy-Based Design Criterion of Dissipative Bracing Systems for the Seismic Retrofit of Frame Structures
Direct sizing criteria represent useful tools in the design of dissipative bracing systems for the advanced seismic protection of existing frame structures, especially when incorporated dampers feature a markedly non-linear behaviour. An energy-based procedure is proposed herein to this aim, focusing attention on systems including fluid viscous devices. The procedure starts by assuming prefixed...
متن کاملSeismic Evaluation and Retrofit of Gas Stations: Case Study
Iran is a country with high seismicity while Tehran, the capital city is home to more than 10 million people which are located on the highest seismic zone of the country. There exist 153 gas stations throughout the metropolitan which are constructed to old building codes with little or no attention to the seismic considerations. In this study which was supported by the National Oil Company, fir...
