Over the years, power systems have been severely affected by extreme events. This
situation has worsened given that climate change has proven to exacerbate their frequency …

Electrical substations suffer significant functionality and economic damage during
earthquakes. To improve the seismic reliability and safety of substation systems, this study …

This article presents an analytical study of the seismic collapse performance of seismically
isolated buildings and comparable non-isolated buildings. The study is based on …

To evaluate the earthquake-resistance capability of an entire substation, which is a complex
multi-input-multi-output system (MIMOS) composed of many various types of electrical …

Recent studies have shown that seismically isolated buildings designed by the minimum
criteria of ASCE/SEI 7 may have unacceptable probabilities of collapse in the MCE R …

Fragility functions and recovery models are often used to assess lifeline systems subjected
to extreme hazards. However, even though many databases for fragility and recovery …

ABSTRACT A three-dimensional (3-D) base isolation system to control both the horizontal
and vertical components of ground motion is presented in this paper. The system is adopting …

Electrical substation systems have always had an obvious vulnerability during earthquakes.
To find an efficient retrofitting strategy at a substation's functional network level, this paper …

The electric power network is considered to be critical infrastructure. Electric utility
companies and electric power administrators are increasingly interested in strengthening …

The fractional-order derivative Zener (FDZ) model can reasonably predict the frequency
dependence behavior of rubber-like materials. However, its capability to capture nonlinear …
