Reliability Analysis of Electric Power Transmission During the Loma Prieta Earthquake

这是一个事后调查项目， 从洛马普列塔地震（10月）中吸取的工程经验教训 1989年）。 本项目的目标是分析和评价 1989年10月17日洛马普列塔地震对 地震中的电力传输系统 受影响的地区。 这些研究旨在发展 定义地震易损性的附加信息 主要传输设备的功能，这是必要的 和必要的全面可靠性分析， 大都市地区的电力供应系统。 的 研究还将评估主要的性能 传输系统，在功率的概率方面， 在指定服务范围内， 地震 研究项目的结果将在 作为关于洛马的全面报告的一部分， 普列塔地震。 该项目将有助于地震的定义 输电设备的易损性函数， 设备和发展的理论模型， 系统.

This is a post-event investigation project to learn engineering lessons from the Loma Prieta earthquake (October 1989). The objective of this project is to analyze and evaluate the effects of the Loma Prieta earthquake of 17 October 1989 on the electric power transmission systems in the earthquake- affected areas. The studies are intended to develop additional information for defining seismic fragility functions of major transmission equipment, which are necessary and essential for a comprehensive reliability analysis of electric power supply systems for metropolitan areas. The study will also evaluate the perfomance of the main transmission systems, in terms of the probability of power disruption at specified service areas caused by the earthquake. The results of the study program will be prepared to constitute part of a comprehensive report on the Loma Prieta earthquake. The project will contribute to the definition of the seismic fragility functions of electric transmission equipment and devices and to the development of theoretical models for such systems.
