전 세계적으로 지하도로의 건설이 활발히 이루어지고 있지만, 지하도로에서의 운전자 행태에 대한 연구는 여전히 부족한 실정이다. 또한 현재 지하도로 설계기준은 주로 지상도로나 터널 기준을 준용하고 있어, 지하 특유의 환경적 요인을 충분히 반영하지 못하고 있 다. 이에 따라, 지하도로에서의 운전자 행태를 분석하고 이를 반영한 설계기준 마련이 필요하다. 본 연구는 지하도로에서 운전자가 차로 변경을 어떻게 수행하는지 분석하고, 정보 제공 방식이 운전자 행태에 미치는 영향을 평가 하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 통해, 향후 지하도로 설계 및 운영에 필요한 개선 사항을 제안하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서 는 소형차 전용도로의 설계 재원을 기준으로한 VR 기반 주행시뮬레이터 맵을 구성하였고 34명의 피실험자를 모집하여 주행시뮬레이 터 실험을 수행하였다. 첫 번째로 차로변경 행태를 살펴보기 위하여 현행 차로 변경 허용 구간 기준인 400m와 대안으로 차로 변경 허용 구간 2km로 비교하 여 운전자의 차로변경 행태에 대해 분석을 수행하였다. 두 번째로는 현행 정보제공 체계 기준인 분기전 2km, 1km, 150m 전 정보안내 대안과 대안으로 추가 500m 지점에 정보를 제공하는 방안에 대해 주행시뮬레이터 실험을 수행하고 대안별 효과를 비교하였다. 실험결과를 검토한 결과, 지상 도로보다 지하 도로에서 운전자들은 차로 변경을 더 어려워하는 경향이 있었다. 두 번째로 운전자들은 차로 변경 허용구간에 따른 주행패턴의 유의미한 변화는 존재하지 않는 것으로 나타났으며, 평소의 주행 습관에 따라 차로 변경을 하 는 것으로 나타났다. 세 번째로는 정보 제공 횟수를 늘릴 경우 운전자들은 차로 변경과 진출 지점을 더 빨리 결정하며, 차로 변경 지 점의 분포가 작아지는 현상이 관찰되었다. 이는 많은 운전자들이 비슷한 지점에서 차로 변경을 하게 되어 상충 구간이 줄어들고, 그에 따라 교통 안전성이 증가할 수 있음을 의미한다.
PURPOSES : This study aims to evaluate the traffic safety by collecting and analyzing vehicle speed and conflict frequency data based on the provision of information to vehicle drivers and crosswalk pedestrians under right-turn conditions.
METHODS : Two evaluation scales, namely speed of access and number of conflicts, were used to quantitatively evaluate the effects of the new information provision method. Data on access speed and the number of conflicts according to information provision were collected and compared before and after information provision.
RESULTS : Analysis of the pre- and post-spot speed reduction rates revealed an overall reduction rate of 32.6%. The conflict ratio was 81.0% before information provision but increased to 83.3% after information provision.
CONCLUSIONS : When LED display information was provided, the effect of decelerating the approaching speed of vehicles in the rightturn torpedo section was statistically significant, but the reduction in the conflict ratio was not. Factors such as intersection status, traffic volume and vehicle speed, affect the approach speed and increase or decrease the number of conflicts. Regardless of whether information is provided, the average compliance rate of the Road Traffic Act when turning right in the channelization area is 16.7%, which is significantly different from the average compliance rate of 48.4% immediately after the Road Traffic Act was revised in July 2022.
In response to a regulatory mandate, all nuclear licensees are obligated to establish an information system that can provide essential information in the event of a radiation emergency by connecting the monitoring data of the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) or equivalent system to the Korea Institute of Nuclear Safety (KINS). Responding to this responsibility, the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) has established the Safety Information Transmission System (SITS), which enables the collection and real-time monitoring of safety information. The KAERI monitors and collects safety information, which includes data from the HANARO Operation Work Station (OWS) and the HANARO & HANARO Fuel Fabrication Plant (HFFP) Radioactivity Monitoring System (RMS), and the Environmental Radiation Monitoring System (ERMS) & meteorological data. Currently, the transmission of this safety information to the AtomCARE server of the KINS takes place via the SITS server located in the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF). However, the multi-path of transmission through SITS has caused problems such as an increase in data transmission interruptions and errors, as well as delays in identifying the cause and implementing system recovery measures. To address these issues, a new VPN is currently being constructed on the servers of nuclear facilities that generate and manage safety information to establish a direct transmission system of safety information from each nuclear facility to the AtomCARE server. The establishment of a direct transmission system that eliminates unnecessary transit steps is expected to result in stable information transmission and minimize the frequency of data transmission interruptions. As of the improvement progress, a security review was conducted in the second and third quarters of 2022 to evaluate the security of newly introduced VPNs to the nuclear facility server, and based on the results of the review, security measures were strengthened. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the development of a direct transmission system for safety information began, and it is scheduled to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2023. The project includes the construction of the transmission system, system inspection, and comprehensive data stability testing. Afterward, the existing SITS located in the EOF will be renamed as the Safety Information Display System (SIDS), and there are plans to remove any unused servers and VPNs.
This study investigated the hazard factors based on imported food non-compliance and global food hazard information for the last 4 years to suggest imported food safety management. Food safety management on utensils or packaging containers is appropriately managed for the compounds derived from them. Food safety management on health-functional foods, processed foods, and agricultural products is concentrated on ingredient contents, food additives, and pesticide residuals. Additional hazards are illegal compounds, mycotoxins & pesticide residuals, hygieneindicator microorganisms and food-borne pathogens in health-functional foods, processed foods, and agricultural products, respectively. The continuous increase in hazards related to safety and hygiene in global food hazard information needs additional attention. To reduce the hazard factors, this study proposes that imported food be limited to products certified by HACCP or an equivalent food safety management system because registering foreign food facilities for processed and health-functional foods is mandatory. Additionally, the customs clearance inspections should focus on the hazard factors derived from the global food hazard information system. This study suggests a global food hazard information system that could derive frequently issued hazard factors at a given period and newly issued hazard factors in aspects, such as food items, subcategories, and exporting countries.
The spent fuel safety information delivered from the consignor to the disposal facility operator directly affects the operation and safety of the disposal facility. Therefore, the operator of a disposal facility must perform data quality management to increase data reliability, and anomaly detection is a representative method among quality control methods. We propose a quality control method to detect anomalies using XGBoost, known for its excellent performance, prevention of overfitting, and fast training speed. First, we select significant variables such as release burnup, enrichment, and amount U from the spent fuel safety information and train models for each variable using only normal data. A model trained using only normal data generates a small error for a normal pattern and a large error for an abnormal pattern. Then, when the data error exceeds a set threshold, the data is determined as an anomaly. In this paper, we implement the XGBoost models using virtual spent fuel information and optimize the hyperparameter of XGBoost using a simulated annealing method for high accuracy. The optimized XGBoost models show high accuracy in a normal input and provide a stable prediction value even in an abnormal input. In addition, we perform anomaly detection by including defect input in the data to validate the presented method. The proposed method shows the result of effectively classifying normal values and anomalies.
The manufactured nuclear fuel assembly is loaded into the nuclear reactor after the core design, and is finally discharged to the wet storage pool after depletion for 3 cycles. The discharged spent nuclear fuel is transported and stored in a dry storage system at the on-site of the nuclear power plant, which is cooled by natural convection, and undergoes final disposal or reprocessing through an intermediate dry storage facility. In this series of processes, the characteristics of the final product, the spent fuel, vary depending on the environmental conditions, so it is essential to manage each history data to verify the long-term integrity of the spent nuclear fuel. In this paper, safety information on spent nuclear fuel is described in order to establish technical requirements that should be considered in each stage of storage, transport, reprocessing, and disposal of spent nuclear fuel. Comprehensive safety information on spent nuclear fuel is basically calculated from basic information that considers characteristic information that can be obtained through the manufacture and design of nuclear fuel assemblies, operation history in a nuclear reactor, and location history in a wet storage pool. It can be divided into secondary production information (SF Burnup, Nuclide Inventory, etc.) and tertiary integrity-related information obtained through cladding inspection during spent fuel storage. KHNP produces this multi-layered information according to the production stage and manages it through the comprehensive management system of the spent nuclear fuel, and safety information with some errors is not only improved through re-verification but also continuously updated. In this paper, the spent nuclear fuel safety information was derived based on various information calculated in the entire process of being discharged and managed in a wet storage pool, including new fuel manufacturing information and depletion history. Such safety information will be used as basic data for long-term safe management of spent nuclear fuel, and will be continuously produced and managed. In the future, additional discussions will be held on the safety information of the spent nuclear fuel through consultation with KORAD and regulatory agencies.
카페리 선박의 안전 운항을 위한 요소 중 화물 고박안전성 분야는 2015년 이후 화물고박기준이 적용되어 파랑에 의해 발생하는 선체운동과 고박력을 상호 비교하여 평가하고 있다. 항해 중 카페리 선박의 안전 운항을 담보하기 위해서는 운항해역의 기상정보를 바탕으로 선체운동을 해석하여 화물의 이동을 방지할 수 있는 고박력을 결정하는 것이 중요하다. 이 연구에서는 부산-제주를 항행하는 총톤수 3,700톤급 카페리 선박을 대상으로 기상청이 운용하는 해상파고부이 3기의 최근 5년간 기상정보를 분석하였으며, 실제 해상에서 선체운동을 계측하고 수치시뮬레이션을 수행하여 선체가속도를 비교하였다. 태풍기간을 제외한 2~3월의 유의파고를 입력조건으로 선체운동을 해석한 결과, 유의파고 2.5 m 조건에서 횡방향 가속도가 실선계측에서는 1.5 m/s2, 수치계산에서는 1.8 m/s2로 이론적 수치시뮬레이션의 결과가 크게 나타났다. 파고별 선체운동을 추정하는 가속도를 실선결과 기반으로 보정하는 근사식을 제안하여, 운송화물의 고박안전성 평가에 적용한 결과 풍랑경보 대비 일반 기상조건에서는 40 % 이하로 분석되었다. 운항해역의 기상정보를 바탕으로 실선계측에 따른 정량적인 가속도 결과를 활용하는 고박안전성 평가 기법이 널리 보급되어 국내 연안 카페리선박의 안전 운항 지침에 적용되기를 기대한다.
