Despite the accident rate for fishing vessels accounts for 70% of all maritime accidents, few studies on such accidents have been done and most of the them mainly focus on causes and mitigation policies to reduce that accident rate. Thus, this risk analysis on sea accidents is the first to be performed for the successful and efficient implementation of accident reducing measures. In risk analysis, risk is calculated based on the combination of frequency and the consequence of an accident, and is usually expressed as a single number. However, there exists uncertainty in the risk calculation process if one uses a limited number of data for analysis. Therefore, in the study we propose a probabilistic simulation method to forecast risk not as a single number, but in a range of possible risk values. For the capability of the proposed method, using the criteria with the ALARP region, we show the possible risk values spanning across the different risk regions, whereas the single risk value calculated from the existing method lies in one of the risk regions. Therefore, a decision maker could employ appropriate risk mitigation options to handle the risks lying in different regions. For this study, we used fishing vessel accident data from 1988 to 2016.
This study compares optimization algorithms for efficient estimations of ship's hydrodynamic coefficients. Two constrained algorithms, the interior point and the sequential quadratic programming, are compared for the estimation. Mathematical optimization is designed to get optimal hydrodynamic coefficients for modelling a ship, and benchmark data are collected from sea trials of a training ship. A calibration for environmental influence and a sensitivity analysis for efficiency are carried out prior to implementing the optimization. The optimization is composed of three steps considering correlation between coefficients and manoeuvre characteristics. Manoeuvre characteristics of simulation results for both sets of optimized coefficients are close to each other, and they are also fit to the benchmark data. However, this similarity interferes with the comparison, and it is supposed that optimization conditions, such as designed variables and constraints, are not sufficient to compare them strictly. An enhanced optimization with additional sea trial measurement data should be carried out in future studies.
부흥과 교회성장은 분명 다른 개념이지만, 많은 한국 기독교인들은 부흥과 교회성장을 동의어로 사용하고 있다. 예를 들어, ‘교회가 부흥했는가?’라고 질문을 할 때, 사람들이 알고 싶어 하는 내용은 대부분 교회의 숫자적 성장 여부이다. 이러한 경향은 1903년부터 1907년까지 지속된 초기 한국 대부흥의 시기에 있었던 교회성장 경험으로부터 시작되었다고 볼 수 있다. 이 논문은 부흥과 교회성장 간의 차이와 관계를 부흥의 의미, 목적, 결과를 중심으로 연구하고 있다. 만일 진정한 부흥이 일어난다면, 그 부흥의 결과는 교회성장으로 이어진다. 하지만 부흥 없이도 교회성장이 있을 수 있다는 점에서 교회성장과 부흥은 다르다. 그러므로 부흥과 교회성장이 매우 밀접한 관계에 있음에도 불구하고 이 둘은 서로 다르다고 볼 수 있다.
Space law is normally referred to international space law. As national space activities develop, however, national space laws have been legislated in many countries for the development of space resources. These are used to present conflicting cases between national and international space law (corpus juris spatialis internationalis) on the interpretation of space resource exploitation. This study is devoted to bridging the gap between these two legal systems. In this paper, the author will critically review the fundamental principles of space resource exploitation under international law and suggest a direction for setting up national space laws for future space resources. This paper is composed of seven parts, including a short Introduction and Conclusion. Part two will discuss acts pertaining to asteroid resources. Part three will deal with res extra commercium. Part four will analyze the non-appropriation principle. Part five will look into the common heritage of mankind. Part six will investigate res nullius humanitatus.
본 연구는 일본과 한국에서 기독교의 수용과 발전에 대조적 유형이 존재하는 것에 주목하여 이 두 이웃 나라에서 개신교와 일반 대중의 종교성을 비교함으로써 동아시아의 ‘종교성’ 논의에 기여하고자 한다. 한국의 경우 근대화의 정신과 개신교 양자가 결합한 것이 중상층(‘엘리트 종교성’)에게 매력을 준 반면에, 고대로부터 내려오는 한국적 종교성(무속신앙)과 오순절 성령운동 기독교의 결합은 중하층(‘대중 종교성’)에게 한층 매력적인 것이었다. 보수적 개신교(장로교 혹은 순복음교단)와 무속신앙(민속 종교의 실천) 양자의 관계가 자연스러운 한국에서 신약성서의 축사(귀신쫓기)와 치병의 행위를 강조하는 기독교의 성령운동적 형태가 괄목할 만한 성장을 이루었다. 이와 대조적으로 일본의 경우 민속 종교와 무속신앙을 믿는 일반 대중은 천리교, 금광교, 창가학회 같은 이른바 ‘신종교’에 이끌렸다. 특히 1960년 이래 이 신종교들은 치병은 물론 가난에 대한 해결 방안을 제공하였다. 일본의 상황에서 기독교는 사무라이(무사) 계급을 주로 개종시켰는데, 이들은 여전히 유교적 에토스(‘엘리트 종교성’)를 놓지 않았다. 이로부터 기독교는 주로 일본 사회의 교육받은 ‘상류’ 계층의 사람들로부터만 계속적인 지지를 받고 있다.
The worldwide PMA pavement is steadily increasing. Unlike straight asphalt at the specified temperature of the performance grade, PMA has little increase in complex modulus after RFTO. Even after satisfying the complex modulus of the original binder, the complex modulus after the RTFO does not satisfy the grade, so that the SBS may be over-prescribed. Unlike straight asphalt, PMA investigated the reason that the complex modulus did not increase after RTFO in this study. SBS consists of a styrene domain and a butadiene matrix. The morphology of SBS in PMA is not clear. The PMA was heat - treated to induce the formation of styrene domain and PG evaluation was carried out. As a result, we confirmed that the formation of styrene domain with aging effect changed the complex modulus after RTFO.

And the study made heat interception permeability aggregate pavement material by mixing heat interception polymer binder. Using the materials, the study conducted flexural strength test and temperature reduction effect experiment. As the result, flexural strength was 5.43MPa average and the temperature reduction effect was effective up to maximum 16 degrees Celsius compared to current asphalt concrete.
The highway junctions are the areas where frequent congestion occurs due to a conflict between vehicles entering the main road from the connecting road and vehicles passing through the main road, which is the main target of microscopic and macroscopic traffic flow study. The importance of study on the behavior and the interaction between vehicles at the highway junctions has been emphasized as an essential element of the Cooperation Intelligent Transport System (C-ITS) and Autonomous Vehicle technology. In this study, merging location and time of vehicles in acceleration lane of highway merging area is recorded by aerial videos from drones, and vectormodelling method was developed with merging location (y-axis) and merging time (x-axis). In the vector model, the vector region of the traffic flow is represented by the realistic expressible vector region and the stable entry into the highway. The model is compared with the traffic conditions according to speed, traffic volume, and density in main line and connecting road. This study can be used as a basic data for understanding the behavior of vehicles at the highway junctions and It is expected to be used as an operational indicator for advanced transportation such as lamp metering, C-ITS, and Autonomous Vehicle technology to stable traffic flow on the highway.
Cold recycled asphalt has been utilized to overcome high energy consumption and working temperature and low recycled pavement material percentage in hot mix asphalt and concrete pavement [1]. Up to dates, asphalt recycling on site called as Cold In-Place Recycling (CIR), Cold Central Plant Recycling (CCPR) and even hot recycling technologies have been developed and applied to the fields, but limitations such as poor adhesion between gravel and asphalt, slow hydration time, bleeding pavement are reported, respectively [2, 3, 4]. Among these issues, hydration time and initial strength in application are all related to the property of mineral filler influencing the mechanical property of pavement mixture. Due to these reasons, there have been continuous needs to develop new mineral filler to overcome previously reported issues by with the respects of mineral composition, hydration reaction and surface reaction enhancement. In this study, several natural minerals such as alumina, silicate, and calcium oxide were utilized as raw materials and following characterizations using SEM, EDS, XRD, and BET were performed to evaluate materials properties and suggest research directions for the optimum mineral filler development.
In the United States and Europe, new environmentally friendly asphalt pavement has been researched as an alternative to traditional hot asphalt pavement. After the Paris Convention of 2015, policies should be found to reduce carbon dioxide. In the field of asphalt pavement, new methods are needed to reduce carbon dioxide from the traditional hot asphalt pavement. In Korea, waste asphalt is growing and natural aggregate is running dry. So the government is implementing policies to increase the use of waste resources. So, it created a new asphalt pavement method to reduce CO2 and use waste asphalt. It is a cold recycled asphalt pavement. Emulsified asphalt has a balance of dispersibility, stability, and adhesive between water, aggregates, and asphalt. But, the physical properties of emulsified asphalt can be degraded compared to traditional hot asphalt pavement. So there are limitations in actual use. The study compared the softening point, elastic recovery, and penetration properties of asphalt mix compounds by using latex in emulsified asphalt. In particular, cations latex was used for the emulsified asphalt, which could further improve the physical properties.
In 1924, natural roack asphalt, which is called Asbuton, was found in South East Sulawesi, Buton Island, Indonesia. Since 2006, Asbuton has been widely applied on national road, provincial road and district roads not only for low volume traffic roads but also for the medium and heavy traffic roads. The use of Asbuton in Indonesian road infrastructure development is increasing because the deposits are estimated to be 677 million tons while current annual production is only approximately 20,000 tons. Asbuton mainly consist of asphalt and mineral like a Trinidad Lake Asphalt. The asphalt content of Asbuton is about 35% or less. Many researchers agreed that pure asphalt binder should be separated from its minerals of Asbuton in order for the conventional asphalt binder to be used widely and economically. Asbuton could replace the conventional asphalt binder. In this study, fundamental and reheological properties of pure asphalt binder extrcted from Asbuton are evauluated to find a possiblity to repalce it as the conventional asphalt binder. The first, pure asphalt binder extrcted from Asbuton through extraction process. Second, penetration test, softening point test, ductility test, and flash point test are conducted to measure physical properties of pure asphalt binder extrcted from Asbuton. Third, dynami shear rheometer (DSR) test, rolling thin film ovens(RTFO) test, pressure aging vessel(PAV) test, and bending beam rheometer(BBR) test are conducted to determine perfoemance grade as a reheological properties. Based on the limited laboratory test results, pure asphalt binder extrcted from would be possibly used as modified additive to improve physical properties and the performance grade at high tempertaure.
The objective of this study is to analyze the behavior and failure mode of the brackets that support middle slabs in the double-deck tunnels by conducting laboratory experiments. In the double-deck tunnels, the middle slabs are supported by the brackets connecting to the tunnel lining. The brackets are subjected to the loads due to the weight of middle slabs and traffic moving on the middle slabs. Since the damages of brackets are directly associated with the safety problems such as falling down of middle slabs, the appropriate design of brackets is one of the most important factors when designing double-deck tunnels. In this study, the reinforcement design of concrete bracket was performed based on the concrete structure design guide, and the load capacity was evaluated by conducting laboratory loading tests. A small scale concrete bracket specimen was fabricated using the scale factor of 0.5. The reaction wall is normally needed to simulate the tunnel lining in this kind of test; however, two brackets were attached symmetrically to a column, which was assumed to be tunnel lining, to be able to conduct the tests without using the reaction wall. When the bracket specimen was fabricated, the lining part was fabricated first and after curing of the lining part, two brackets were fabricated at the same time at both sides of the lining part. In the tests, the loads were applied to both brackets simultaneously using a loading frame and the displacements were measured at different locations. The main behaviors of the bracket systems such as the vertical displacements of brackets and the displacements at the interfaces between the brackets and lining were measured and the horizontal displacements of the specimen were also measured at the bottom of the lining part to confirm if there was any slip or rotation of the specimen during the tests. The experimental analysis results showed that the initial damage of the specimen was observed at the interface between the bracket and lining with appearing the gap and the failure of the specimen was reached with cracking in the brackets. The load capacity (safety factor) of the bracket specimen to the initial damage based on the design load was 2.5 and to the failure was 3.3.
Most of the expressway concrete pavements in Korea have been constructed with jointed plain concrete pavements. However, the premature failure of joints occurred on some routes and it is considered to be related to the durability of concrete. Korea Expressway Corporation has been continuously devoting efforts to increase the durability of concrete, and recent research has shown that premature failure of jointed plain concrete pavement constructed recently has decreased. The durability of pavement concrete is determined by internal and external factors. Currently, the durability of pavements concrete is controlled by controlling the quantity and the spacing factor of internal air. In this study, the feasibility of evaluating concrete durability through absorption performance tests was examined. The absorption performance was evaluated by applying ASTM C 1585 and modified NBN B 15-215 in Belgium and applied to the pavement concrete mixed in the laboratory or collected on site. Each test is a method to evaluate water absorption performance, but ASTM evaluates the absorption performance through the upper surface and NBN evaluates the absorption performance through the entire surface of specimens. In this study, the absorption performance of the pavement concrete measured according to the test method was compared and the advantages and disadvantages of the performance evaluation method were examined through comparison of test results and procedures. As a result of the absorption performance test on the cores collected at the site, the amount of water absorption in the region where the few premature failure was occurred was relatively small. Also, the specimen of lower water cement ratio absorbed the smaller amount of water. And the small amount of aggregate at the surface showed tendency of the large absorption of the water. The amount of absorption due to the increment of air content showed a moderate increment but it was relatively small. This study has confirmed the possibility of estimating the durability through the evaluation of the absorption performance of concrete. However, further study is needed to extend the results obtained from the test method to the evaluation criteria of pavement concrete.
Roller Compacted Concrete Pavement (RCCP) is placed by roller compaction of a mixture of less cement and unit water content and more aggregates and provides excellent early strength development with the help of interlocking of aggregates and hydration. The unit cement content of RCC pavements accounts for 85% of conventional pavements, with low drying shrinkage. As low drying shrinkage leads to smaller crack widths than ordinary concrete, RCC pavements can help elevate reflecting crack resistance if applied to a base layer of a composite pavement system. In a composite pavement with an asphalt surface laid over a concrete base, pavement temperature change is important in predicting pavement performance. As movement of the lower concrete layer is determined by temperature depending on pavement depth, temperature data of the pavement structure serves as an important parameter to prevent and control reflecting crack. Among the causes of reflecting crack, horizontal behavior of the lower concrete layer and curling-caused vertical behavior of joints/cracks are considered closely related to temperature change characteristics of the lower concrete course (Baek, 2010). Previous studies at home and abroad about reflecting crack have focused on pavement behavior depending on daily and yearly in-service temperature changes of a composite pavement (Manuel, 2005). Until now, however, studies have not been conducted on initial temperature characteristics of concrete in composite pavements where asphalt surface is placed over an RCC base. Annual temperature changes of in-service concrete pavements go up to 60 ℃, and those of asphalt overlays become around the twice at 110 ℃. This study evaluated initial crack behavior of composite pavement by investigating pavement temperature by depth of an RCC base and analyzing joint movement depending on change to temperatures of continuously jointed pavements. Findings from the study suggest that in composite pavements and asphalt overlays, time of laying asphalt has an important impact on crack behavior and reflecting crack.
In recent years, pavement distresses have been caused by diverse factors such as spalling, deterioration of repaired sections, blow-up, and alkali aggregate reaction due to changing climate environment of a concrete pavement and its construction and maintenance conditions (supply of materials, increase in use of de-icers, etc,). As a leading repair method for deteriorated concrete pavements, partial-depth repair is implemented in accordance with guidelines of material properties for joints of a concrete pavement and field application evaluation systems, but still some of the repaired sections become deteriorated again at an early stage due to poor construction quality and failure of response to environmental impacts. Distresses that can be corrected with partial-depth repairs are largely divided into those of repair materials and of the existing pavement bonded to repair materials, and combined distress of repair materials and the existing pavement. Although re-repair methods should be different by distress type and scale than conventional pavement repair methods, appropriate repair methods and guidance for re-repairs have not been in place so far, and therefore currently, re-repair practices follow the existing manual of partial depth repairs. Therefore, this study evaluated concrete bond characteristics by removing method and repair scope for an experimental section of frequently distressed pavements to determine a re-repair scope and method for deteriorated partial depth repair sections of concrete pavement, the number of which has increased over time.
Since the road management paradigm has changed into the user-oriented circumstance, the functionality of the crucial road maintenance factors became important than before. Among these factors, the roughness directly related to the ride quality for driver became to get more attention. IRI(International Roughness Index) is recently the most widely used roughness indices in the world. IRI is a reasonable index that reflects the vertical displacement(bounce) of vehicle as the road profile changes. Since IRI reflects the vertical behavior of vehicle, it reflects ride quality indirectly. However, there are various rotational behaviors such as roll, yaw, and pitch in addition to the vertical displacement. Profiles, which MRI range was 1.13-4.12m/km, were measured in five sections and the profiles were entered into CarSIM to simulate vehicle behavior. As a result, the pitch was the largest in all sections, followed by roll and yaw, relatively. Especially, the amount of yaw is about 5% of the pitch or about 7% of the roll. The behavior of moving vehicle was measured using INS(inertial navigation system) and accelerometer in the section where the road surface profile was measured. As a result, as in the simulation, the pitch was the largest in all the sections and the amount of yaw is only about 7% of the pitch or about 18% of the roll. Field experiments were conducted to analyze the effect of the rotational behavior of the actual driving vehicle on the ride quality. 33 panels evaluated the ride quality on a ten-point scale while driving on 35 sections with various roughnesses. 35 test sections were selected considering the roughness distribution of actual expressway. The panel was selected considering age, driving experience, gender, and expertise. Of the total 1,155 responses, 964 responses were used for the analysis, except 191 responses measured at low driving speeds. In addition, the amount of vehicle behavior and road surface profile were measured using INS and laser. As a result of correlation analysis between MPR(mean panel rating) and vehicle behavior, correlation coefficient of bounce was the highest with 0.814, and the order of pitch was 0.798, and roll was 0.734, relatively. As a result of regression analysis for predicting ride quality, regression model combining bounce and roll was statistically the most suitable. This model is expected to reflect the ride quality more effectively because it can consider the vehicle behavior due to the longitudinal profile change of the road surface as well as the vehicle behavior due to the difference between the left and right wheel path road profile.
The Semi-Rigid Pavement (SRP) mixture is composed of Gap Graded Asphalt (GGA) mixture (air void = 20~28%) and cement paste. By inserting cement paste into voids in GGA mixture, SRP can provide not only flexibility but also rigidity characteristics on pavement performance. SRP can mitigate pavement surface temperature increase during summer session, provide better smoothness and mitigate rutting distress due to heavy weight vehicles, successfully. In Japan, SRP is widely applied in cross section area, heavy vehicle parking lot and highway ticketing booth in highway network system. In South Korea, SRP was introduced and applied since 2005. However, still more researches and studies are needed to understand material characteristics and improve performance of SRP. Moreover, the current SRP system in South Korea merely follows and adapts the aggregate gradation information from Japan which needs to be amended and customized into original material (i.e. aggregate, binder and cement) situation of South Korea. In this paper, SRP system based on Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) mixture design originated from Korea Expressway Corporation (KEC) and enhanced cement paste with addition of fly-ash and slags was developed. In addition, an optimized proportion between asphalt mixture air voids and cement paste amount with consideration of economic benefit was introduced. Based on field evaluation process it can be said that the newly developed SRP system can successfully adapted not only in static site on highway: parking lots or ticketing booth, but also in dynamic site on highway: driving and wheel path.
Roads in Korea are equipped with PMS (Pavement Management System) computation data that runs on highway, national highway and municipal road. PMS is a program that selects and manages the road pavement optimal maintenance alternative as a indicator of the road pavement structural and functional performance. PMS is a system that has been developed for the primary purpose of maintaining the structural performance of road pavement, and so far does not include any indicators associated with the safety of road users. However, the road cave-in, which have recently become an issue on social networking sites, mass-media, and other issues, should pose systematically because it can make a safety risk to road users, and in particular lead to the structural and functional failure of the PMS program in view of the road pavement. Accordingly, this research has developed a practical use case for developing an integrated road cave-in management program based on the results of various studies on the exploration, analysis, assessment and handling of the existing road cave-in in Korea.
The infrastructure that man absolutely needs creates a lot of environmental load. The environmental load is quantified global environment pollution. So we can use LCA method for assess and control environmental load. In this study, we developed the environmental load estimating model to evaluate quickly in design stage when maintaining infrastructures facilities. Especially, we chose NATM tunnel because it is economical and there are many example of construction on public roads and expressway. First, we made a list of the breakdown cost by using collected unit cost of Korea Expressway Corporation and Seoul-Si about tunnel maintenance. So we chose major work classification. We selected the major classification such as pavement repairing inside tunnel, leaked surface treatment of tunnel, attached tile repairing inside tunnel and tunnel cleaning etc. We excluded concrete repairing because it is not easy to define maintenance factor about concrete repairing. Next, we made data bases of standard supply and resources need by specialist work classification. Using data bases, we was able to estimate environmental load by designating an input variable such as lane, pavement, length, tile repairing, leaked surface treatment and cleaning method. Lastly, we made environmental load estimating model after it is verified by comparing the results with the actual environmental load and estimated environmental load. Finally, our goal of this study is to develop the methodology that easily estimates the environmental load. Accordingly, the environmental load will be decreased by using this model in stage of planning, design and maintenance. Also, it is expected that the maintenance management estimating model developed from this study will be possible to do eco-friendly management of the road and tunnel construction.
