Q5. The rupture area that is expected to be associated with the seismic event in question 3 will be:
a. 0.1 km2 b. 1.0 km2 c. 10 km2 d. 100 km2 Ans : B –
1.0 km2 -Since the magnitude of the seismic event is 4, thus, from the table rupture area would be 1 km2. Q6. The damage expected to associate with the seismic event in question 3 can be described as: a. Minor b. Light c. Moderate d. Strong Ans : B –
Light
Q7. What are the types of seismic hazard assessment, what is the main difference between these types? Give an example of each type. Ans :
-
There are two
types of seismic hazard assessment: 1)
Deterministic seismic hazard assessment (DSHA) 2)
Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) Probabilistic risk takes into account all possible scenarios, their likelihood, and their corresponding effects, whereas deterministic risk takes into account the impact of a single risk scenario. 1)
DSHA:
-
Since it analyses a typical incident and generates a realistic distribution of the consequences on the land, DSHA is preferred in emergency management. -
For each significant seismic source, a specific earthquake situation (earthquake magnitude and location) is formed, and a predetermined ground movement likelihood level is selected. The location of the earthquake is used to determine the distance to the site. The ground movement is then determined for each scenario using a ground motion prediction equation given the size, length, and number of standard deviations for the ground movement. 2)
PSHA:
-
PSHA is chosen for a territorial prevention study because it compares different study-
relevant communities and considers the consequences of all conceivable seismic sources. -
The probabilistic approach takes into account all conceivable and pertinent deterministic earthquake scenarios (including all combinations of magnitude and location). It also takes
into account all conceivable ground motion probability levels (a range of the number of s
tandard deviations above or below the median). For each earthquake scenario, the distane
to the site is calculated, and using a ground motion attenuation relation, the ground motio
ns are then computed for each number of standard deviations above or below the median. Q8. A study area has been exposed to several earthquakes, as shown in the table 1 below. Using the PSHA method, determine the following: a. The probability of having an earthquake with M>6.0 in the next 1 year b. The average number (per year) for events having M> 4.5
Ans: a)
Here, T=25 years (1972-1997) m N(m) in T years Annual N(m)/T Cumulative Annual N(m) 8 0 0 0 7 0 0 0 6 11 0.44 0.44 5 58 2.32 2.76 4 81 3.24 6.0 Probability of an earthquake event with M>6 in next one year is 0.44%
. b)

Q5: A generator is connected through a transformer to a synchronous
motor. Reduced to the same base, the per unit subtransient reactances of
the generator and motor are 0.15 and 0.35, respectively, and the leakage
reactance of the transformer is 0.1 per uint. A three-phase fault occurs at
the terminals of the motor when the terminal voltage of the generator is
0.9 per uint and the output current of the generator is 1 per unit at 0.8
power factor leading. Find the subtransient current in per unit in the fault,
in the generator, and in the motor. Use the terminal voltage of the
generator as the reference phasor and obtain the solution (a) by using the
internal voltages of the machines and (b) by using Thevenin's theorem.

If the source impedance at a 13.2 kV distribution substation bus is (0:5 + 1:5) Q per phase,
compute the RMS and maximum peak instantaneous value of the fault current, for a balanced
three-phase fault. For the system (X/R) ratio of 3.0, the asymmetrical factor is 1.9495 and the
time of peak is 7.1 ms (see Problem 1). Comment on the withstanding peak current capability
to which all substation electrical equipment need to be designed.
