In light of recent significant seismic events in Korea and worldwide, there is an urgent need to reevaluate the adequacy of seismic assessments conducted during facility construction. This study reexamines the ongoing viability of the Safety Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) criteria assessment for the Combustible Radioactive Waste Treatment Facility (CRWTF) site at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI), originally established in 1994. To validate the SSE assessment, we delineated 13 seismic structure zones within the Korean Peninsula and employed two distinct methodologies. Initially, we updated earthquake occurrence data from 1994 to the present year (2023) to assess changes in the site’s horizontal maximum earthquake acceleration (g). Subsequently, we conducted a comparative analysis using the same dataset, contrasting the outcomes derived from the existing distance attenuation equation with those from the most recent attenuation equations to evaluate the reliability of the applied attenuation model. The Safety Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) criterion of 0.2 g remains unexceeded, even when considering recent earthquake events since the original evaluation in 1994. Furthermore, when applying various assessment equations developed subsequently, the maximum value obtained from the previously utilized ‘Donvan and Bornstein’ attenuation equation is 0.1496 g, closely resembling the outcome derived from the recently employed ‘Lee’ reduction equation of 0.1451 g. The SSE criteria for CRWTF remain valid in the current context, even in light of recent seismic occurrences such as the 2016 Gyeongju earthquake. Additionally, the attenuation equation employed in the evaluation consistently yields conservative results when compared to methodologies used in recent assessments. Consequently, the existing SSE criteria remain valid at present. This study is expected to serve as a valuable reference for confirming the SSE criterion assessment of similarly constructed facilities within KAERI.

국내외 매년 지속적으로 증가하는 대기오염의 상당량이 선박에서 배출되고 있으며, 이러한 선박에서의 배출량을 감축하기 위 해 정부는 환경규제를 강화하고 해양대기환경 개선을 위해 「환경친화적 선박의 개발 및 보급 촉진에 관한 법률」을 제정 및 시행하여 친환경 에너지를 동력원으로 사용하는 환경친화적 선박을 보급하여 해양오염 저감 기술이 개발되도록 하고 있다. 환경친화적 선박의 기 술은 최근 순수 전기추진 내지는 전기복합 추진체계까지 진화하고 있으나, 선박의 안전한 운용을 위한 검사 및 설비기준 등 관련제도의 정비는 이를 못 따라가는 실정으로, 특히 국내 연안선박의 다수를 차지하는 어선에 대한 제도는 정비가 시급한 시점이다. 이번 연구를 통 해 어선에의 전기복합 추진체계 등의 적용을 위해 핵심기자재인 배터리, 전력변환장치 등을 정의하고 이에 필요한 안전기준을 진단, 마련 하여 친환경 어선의 도입과 보급을 위해 관련된 산업을 지원할 수 있도록 최소한의 안전기준안을 마련하고자 한다.

The recent increase in crude oil trading has led to an increase in the workings of SPM for crude oil carriers. VLCCs generally encounter difficulty entering port due to limitations in terms of sea depth and maneuverability. The SPM is a system that allows mooring to the buoy located in the outer sea for such vessels. However, the buoy is more affected by relatively external forces because of their offshore location. Therefore, the safety assessment of SPM is particularly important as it can lead to large oil pollution disasters in the event of SPM accidents. Despite this, in the implementation of the Marine Traffic Safety Audit Scheme in Korea, there exists no guidance for SPM. In this study, a SPM mooring safety assessment is performed using OPTIMOOR, a numerical analysis program, so as to understand the mooring characteristics of SPM. As a result, it is confirmed that the tension of mooring lines and hull movement in the SPM are greatly affected by the encounter angles with external forces. In addition, it is found that the maximum tension of the mooring line is elevated as the water depth becomes shallower through sensitivity analysis. According to SPM characteristics, which has a large influence on the encounter angle, this study has proposed an amendment to setting criteria in the implementation of the Maritime Traffic Safety Audit Scheme which could improve the reliability and accuracy of mooring safety assessments.

With the development of industrial technology and science, production and manufacturing facilities have been enhanced and improved, and the importance of the safety of workers has also been regulated and limited by various safety management methods. As a way to secure the safety of the workers from the production facility, the fail-safe and fool-proof methods are now being applied. Any possible insecure behavior and unsafe conditions can be removed by adopting the standards and specifications that are now secure the safety of workers and equipment. This research analyzes EN ISO 13849-1 international and European standards during CE certification. In order to secure acceptable reduced risks, the risk assessment process of ISO 12100 and the processes for reducing its risk are applied. In the current ISO 13849-1 standard, the criteria for the required performance level PLr (Required Performance Level) for the applicable risk and safety functions through the risk assessment are subjective and not subdivided. Therefore, the evaluation criteria are likely to cause judge’s judgement error due to qualitative judgement. This research focuses on evaluation and acceptable performance level setting for the safety circuit of the equipment. We propose an objective and specific evaluation criteria to secure safety, and the proposed evaluation criteria are applied to the case study of the safety circuit for the equipment. In order to secure the safety of the entire safety circuit, the improvement of the MTTFd and DC level related to the SRP/CS (Safety-Related Parts of Control Systems)’ lifetime is required for the future research.

This study aims to investigate laws and standards(including technical guidelines) related to safety criteria for 22 kitchen machines frequently used in commercial kitchens.

Compulsory or optional standards or guidelines related to safety criteria for kitchen machines were presented by 22 kitchen machines. Safety devices shown in the laws, standards and guidelines were also summarized by kitchen machines and their risk factors.

The purpose of this study is to investigate EU, UK and USA’s laws and standards related to safety criteria for commercial kitchen machines. The study was based on literature survey and web surfing. The results revealed that EU has relevant directives by kitchen machines and harmonized standards according to the directives. The directives and harmonized standards are translated into the laws and standards of EU member countries, respectively. The kitchen facility relevant legal systems of UK and USA do not prescribe the safety devices or measures, but only the basic health and safety requirements. The requirements were forcefully implemented through the certificate systems such as CE(Confommite European), UL(Underwriters Laboratories), etc. Only products with CE, UL or NRTL(ationally Recognized Testing Laboratory) certificate marking can be placed on the market of EU and USA, or put into service. For achieving the certificates, all requirements regulated in the relevant standards should be met. The standards of UK and USA were presented by kitchen machines or by standards themselves, respectively. Safety devices required by the standards were also summarized by kitchen machines and their risk factors.

Steel industry in Korea is a key national industry that has led economic growth for a long time. And accidents occurred from a variety of causes has endlessly made as much as remarkable achievements of steel industry. It is a fact that research achievements of disaster prevention in steel industry has not been significantly, compared to production technique achievements. And the level of interest on safety management in the steel industry is conspicuously low. Although support activity for a various safety management are provided reasonably to prevent disasters occurring with subcontractors. A method capable of quantitative evaluation, applied to subcontractors in most business places are relatively rare except parent firms-leading places. This study is to make and show safety management activities to purcue in advance in conjunction with a parent firm through development of a more systematic and quantitative evaluation model for disaster prevention with steel industry subcontractors, and to contribute to disaster prevention in domestic steel industry through advanced safety management method, by applying a proposed evaluation model of safety management activities as subcontractors in steel industry.

현행 국내 내진 성능 평가 기준에서 사용하고 있는 필댐의 동적 상세 해석에 대한 안전성 평가 기준은 지진 하중 조건에 의해 발생되는 댐마루 연직방향, 횡방향 최대 변위가 정적하중에 의한 변위를 포함하여 제체 높이의 1% 이하로 규정하고 있다. 그러나 이는 이론적 근거가 부족하여, 평가 기준에 대한 합리성 검토가 필요하다. 중약진 지역에 속하는 국내 지진학적 특성상 지진시 댐 계측 데이터로 근거를 마련하기가 어려운 실정으로, 본 연구에서는 국외 계측 데이터 D/B 등 다양한 자료를 바탕으로 안전성 평가 기준을 검토하였다. 추가적으로 원심모형시험과 수치해석을 함께 수행하여, 변형 기준을 검토하였다. 또한, 수치시뮬레이션을 통하여 매개 변수 분석을 수행하고, 댐체의 횡방향 변위와 침하에 대한 영향을 분석하고 변형 기준과 비교, 검토하였다.

The efforts to reduce industrial accident has been brisk recently in workplace. These efforts were mainly concentrated on construction and manufacturing. Despite these efforts, current accident rate so far has been maintained on the fixed level. According to the change of industrial structure, the government's attention on industrial accident prevention activities are focused in service industries. When trying to appraise the result of such activities, it is impossible to evaluate safety without certain criteria. Therefore, we analyze data by TOPSIS method that all the subway institution jointly manage every year. we decide the order of safety priority between domestic subway workplaces and measure the variation in safety by sensitivity. As a result, we draw conclusions to improve safety for the primary consideration and suggest alternatives.

본 논문에서는 고준위폐기물 처분용기를 지하 심지층에 처분하기 위하여 요구되는 구조설계 요구조건과 구조안전성 평가 기준을 도출하였다. 고준위폐기물은 높은 열과 많은 방사능을 방출하기 때문에 고준위폐기물을 넣어 보관하는 처분용기는 그 취급에 많은 주의가 요구된다. 이를 위하여 고준위폐기물 처분용기는 장기간(보통 10,000년 동안) 안전한 장소에 보관되어야 한다. 보통 이 보관 장소는 지하 500m에 위치한다. 지하 깊은 화강암에 고준위폐기물을 보관하도록 설계되는 처분용기는 내부주철삽입물과 이를 감싸고 있는 부식에 강한 와곽쉘, 위 덮개와 아래 덮개로 구성되는 구조로 되어 있으며 지하수압과 벤토나이트 버퍼의 팽윤압을 받는다. 따라서 고준위폐기물 처분용기는 심지층에 보관 시 이들 외력들을 견디도록 설계되어야 한다. 만약에 발생 가능한 모든 하중조합을 고려한 처분용기 설계가 되지 않으면 심지층에 위험한 고준위폐기물 처분 시에 처분용기에 소성변형이나 크랙 또 좌굴같은 구조적 결함이 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 심지층에 처분용기를 처분 시에 처분용기에 발생하는 구조적 문제들이 발생하지 않게 하기 위하여 여러 가지 구조해석이 수행되어야 한다. 이러한 구조해석 수행에 앞서 처분용기 설계 타당성을 평가하기 위한 기준이 필요하다. 또한 평가기준에 영향을 미치는 설계요구조건(설계변수)이 명확히 검토되어야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 처분용기의 구조설계 요구조건(설계변수)과 구조 안전성 평가기준을 도출하고자 한다.

산업재해로 인한 개인·사회·국가적 손실이 막대함에도 불구하고, 이러한 산업재해손실을 최소화하기 위한 산업안전보건정책의 결정과 집행과정에 대한 분석·연구는 매우 미흡한 실정이며, 유사한 성격의 사회정책으로서 공정거래제도나 환경분야보다도 훨씬 뒤떨어 져 있다 본 논문은 산업안전보건기준이라는 정책과제를 중심으로 산업안전보건정책의 집행 과정의 성공과 실패요인의 분석에 필요한 연구분석들을 제시하고자 하며, 향후에 이를 바탕으로 실증적인 적용실태연구를 통해 산업안전보건정책방향의 일단을 제시하고자 한다.

일정 규모 이상의 사장교와 현수교에는 자유장, 주탑, 보강거더에 지진가속도계가 부착되어 있다. 이 연구에서는 부착된 센서를 활용하여 지진발생 시에 긴급하게 지진안전성을 평가하는 방법을 제안하였다. 표준화된 시스템으로 긴급한 평가가 이루어지므로 센서 단위의 평가가 효과적이며, 경주, 포항지진에 대한 특수교량의 데이터 분석을 통하여 평가 방안을 도출하였다. 자유장, 교각기초, 앵커리지와 같이 지반 또는 지반과 인접한 위치에 설치된 가속도계는 최대가속도로 평가를 수행하고 주탑상부, 보강거더 등 구조물에 부착된 가속도계는 가속도의 변환을 통한 변위비교로 평가를 수행하는 것을 제안하였다.

이 연구에서는 사장교 및 현수교에 부착된 지진가속도계측기를 활용하여 교량의 안전성을 긴급하게 평가할 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. 실측된 지진가속도계측기의 상시 응답을 이용하여 구조해석 모델의 고유주파수와 비교를 통해 최대한 유사한 동적특성을 갖도록 모델링을 개선한다. 설계지진에 대한 지진해석을 수행하여 지진가속도계측기 설치 위치별 최대 변위를 도출하며, 도출된 변위는 사전에 관리기준치로서 시스템에 기 입력된다. 지진발생 시 실시간으로 측정된 가속도 시간이력을 필터링 후 2중적분을 통해 변위시간이력으로 변환한 뒤 최대 변위를 추출한다. 최종적으로 시스템에 기 입력된 관리기준치와 추출된 변위와의 비교를 통해 안전성을 평가한다. 경주지진 시 기록된 데이터를 활용한 12개 특수교량의 긴급 안전성평가 수행을 통해 제안된 방법의 적용성을 확인한다.
