This study attempted to analyze the comparative advantage in terms of disaster safety costs in verifying the effectiveness and economic feasibility of the high-performance water-bulwark system in the pole tunnel, which was recently promoted as a part of the acceleration of vehicles. The tunnel to be analyzed was divided into a short tunnel(Anyang, Cheonggye) and a long tunnel(Suraksan, Sapaesan). As a result, it was analyzed that 25% of the improvement effect would occur if one lane was secured by applying the Water-Bulwark System. It was analyzed that this is because the time value cost, which accounts for a large proportion of the traffic congestion cost of short tunnels and pole tunnels, differs depending on the congestion time and traffic volume, not the length of the tunnel.

Laver aquaculture, which occupies a large proportion in the aquaculture industry in Korea, is still highly dependent on human labor. Therefore, it is necessary to study the development of an automatic system to improve the working environment and increase the efficiency of aquaculture production systems. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the economic feasibility of an improved system in a study for the loading-unloading and automatic weighing systems in laver aquaculture industry. Economic analysis of the developed unloading and automatic weighing system were implemented under various conditions to calculate more accurate benefits and costs. As a result of this study, the economic feasibility was found to be very high in the three models: net present value (NPV), benefit-cost ratio (B/C), internal rate of return (IRR). Moreover, the results of sensitivity analysis showed that the economical efficiency of the automatic loading, unloading, and weighing system in laver aquaculture was very high.

교량 인프라는 국민의 경제와 사회적 활동에 반드시 필요한 물리적 기반시설이고, 국민의 안전과 편의성에 직결되는 시설이므로 국민의 입장에서 편익을 고려해야 한다. 교량의 구성요소 중 바닥판은 교량 전체의 생애주기 동안 필연적으로 교체 시기가 도래하고 파손 등으로 인한 부분 교체도 빈번하게 이루어지고 있다. 바닥판 교체공사 시 거더와 바닥판을 합성하는 기 존 용접 전단연결재의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 볼트 접합 전단연결재(DY볼트)는 바닥판 철거 공정에서 파쇄를 최소화하고 교 체공사를 위한 전단연결재 재시공이 용이하여 공사 기간을 기존 대비 단축할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 공사기간 중 도로차 단으로 인해 발생하는 도로이용자비용을 산출하여 기존 공법과 비교하는 방법으로 볼트 접합 전단연결재를 적용한 강합성 교량 의 경제성을 도로이용자(국민) 입장에서 분석하였다.

As the environmental impacts of fossil fuel energy sources increase, the South Korean government has tried to change non-environmental- friendly enery sources to environmental-friendly energy sources in order to mitigate environmental effects, which lead to global warming and air pollution. With both a limited budget and limited time, it is essential to accurately evaluate the economic and environmental effects of renewable energy projects for the efficient and effective operation of renewable energy plants. Although the traditional economic evaluation methods are not ideal for evaluating the economic impacts of renewable energy projects, they can still be used for this purpose. Renewable energy projects involve many risks due to various uncertainties. For this reason, this study utilizes a real option method, the Geske compound model, to evaluate the renewable energy projects on Jeju Island in terms of economic and environmental values. This study has developed an economic evaluation model based on the Geske compound model to investigate the influences of flexibility and uncertainty factors on the evaluation process. This study further conducts a sensitivity analysis to examine how two uncertainty factors (namely, investment cost and wind energy production) influence the economic and environmental value of renewable energy projects.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of dust removal by dust removal vehicles by the measuring dust load and PM10 concentrations on the sidewalks of block pavements. METHODS : Field experiments were conducted to determine a dust removal method suitable for the sidewalk conditions, as identified through a literature review. Data collection was followed by the evaluation of the sidewalk dust load with removal vehicles and analysis of the PM10 content within a service road. Moreover, an economic analysis was conducted based on the social costs of dust reduction. RESULTS : When cleaning a sidewalk block by spraying water, the contaminants in small gaps in the block pavement could be reduced, providing a potential solution to void clogging. The dust on the surface of the sidewalk was suspended from a paved road with a high level of traffic volume. Using sidewalk dust removal vehicles with sweeping, spraying water, and inhalation reduced the dust load and PM10 contents by more than 2 and 0.07g/m2, respectively. CONCLUSIONS : According to the economic analysis of the development of dust removal vehicles for sidewalks, the cost-benefit analysis method shows an input effect of 0.4, but if the reduction amount of fine particles such as PM2.5, further experiments are necessary to address the atmospheric fine dust concentrations resulting from cleaning sidewalk block pavements.

The Korean Air-Force aircraft maintenance depot paints the exterior of various aircraft, including high-tech fighters. Aircraft exterior painting is a maintenance process for long-term life management by preventing damage to the aircraft surface due to corrosion. The de-painting process is essential to ensure the quality of aircraft exterior paints. However, because the Korean Air-Force’s de-painting process is currently done with sanding or Plastic Media Blasting (PMB) method, it is exposed to harmful dust and harmful compounds and consumes a lot of manpower. This study compares the de-painting process currently applied by the ROK Air-Force and the more improved process of the US Air Force, and performs economic analysis for the introduction of advanced equipment. It aims to provide information that can determine the optimal time to introduce new facilities through Cost-Volume-Profit (CVP) analysis. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that the sanding method had the most economical efficiency up to 2 units per year, the PMB method from 3 to 21 units, and the laser method from 22 units or more. In addition, in a situation where the amount of de-painting work is expected to increase significantly due to the increase in fighters in future, BEP analysis was conducted on the expansion of the existing PMB method and the introduction of a new laser method. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that it is more economical to introduce the laser method when the amount of work exceeds the PMB work capacity(18 units per year). The paper would helpful to improve the productivity and quality of the Korean Air Force Aircraft maintenance depot through timely changes of facilities in the workplace in preparation for expansion.

The purpose of this study is to identify economic situation on scale of tuna distant longline fishery by analyzing its economies of scale using the cost function. To analyze its economics of scale, the deep-sea fishing statistics were used from 2012 to 2016. In detail, the number of panels for estimating the cost function was 68 tuna distant longline vessels from 2012 to 2016, and the total number of observations over the five years were 340. As a final model, the two-way fixed effect model based on the translog cost function was adopted through the F test, the Breusch-Pagan test and the Hausman test. As a result of the analysis, it was found that tuna distant longline fishery between 2012 and 2014 was diseconomies of scale, the fishery between 2015 and 2016 was economies of scale. However, the economic indicators of the scale from 2012 to 2016 were almost close to zero, indicating that the constant returns to scale, the optimal scale, were reached. Therefore, in the situation where the amount of fishery resources in the world continues to decrease, it is necessary to prepare a method to obtain economic benefits through scale maintenance and reduction rather than indiscriminate scale expansion.

본 연구에서는 절삭식 정미기 도입에 따른 실효성을 분석하기 위해 개발된 절삭식 정미기의 경제성을 비용/편익 분석(B/C ratio), 손익분기점, 기존의 정미기와의 비교 및 수입대체효과의 4가지 측면에서 분석하였다. 절삭식 정미기의 가동률에 따른 비용/편익 비율은 가동률 60%, 80%에서 모두 1 초과로 추정되었다. 손익분기점은 가동률 60%에서는 절삭식 정미기 운용을 시작한 지 3.4년 정도 경과한 시점부터 순이익이 발생하였다. 또한 가동률 80%의 경우 정백미 생산을 시작한 지 66일째부터 수익이 발생하여 절삭식 정미기 운용 후 2.56년 정도부터 순이익이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 개발된 절삭식 정미기를 기존의 국산 및 수입 정미기 4종과 비교한 결과 국산에 비해서 가격 및 수리비용에서는 다소 높은 값을 보였으나, 에너지 소비량이 적고 설치공간이 작은 장점을 보였다. 수입된 정미기에 비해서는 에너지 소비량, 가격, 설치공간 및 수리비용에서 충분한 경쟁력을 보였다. 이에 따라 수입된 정미기 100대를 개발된 정미기로 대체할 경우 668억 수준의 높은 수입대체효과를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 나타났으며, 국내 시장에서 절삭식 정미기의 시장점유율을 높일 수 있을 것으로 시사되었다.

최근 세장한 구조의 장경간 아치교의 시공 및 설계가 증가하고 있는 추세로서 아치부재에 적용되는 강재를 경량화시킬 수 있는 콘크리트 충전강관 부재에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 이는 장경간 아치교량의 구조적 특성상 압축력 지지에 유리한 콘크리트를 강재와 같이 이용함으로써 구조적 효율성을 증대시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 콘크리트 충전강관을 사용한 아치교 설계에 적용되는 초기변수를 고려하여 하로아치교를 대상으로 강관 단면 내 콘크리트 충전길이, 트러스타입의 아치리브 높이, 강관 단면의 재료강성 변화 등의 영향을 유한요소해석을 통해 비교분석하였다. 이를 토대로 콘크리트 충전강관의 아치교 최적화 설계 방법을 제안하고 콘크리트 충전강관의 아치교 적용성을 확보할 수 있도록 경제성 분석을 수행하였다. 분석결과 콘크리트 충전강관 아치리브단면 적용 시 기존 아치리브에 비해 하로아치교의 경우 22.0%의 강재절감이 가능하며 콘크리트 충전에 따른 비용증가는 발생하나 전체 공사비의 경우 18% 절감되어 경제적으로 효과를 보였다.
