모바일 네트워크 환경은 언제 어디서나 네트워크를 사용하는 모바일 서비스를 편리하게 사용할 수 있도록 해준다. 그러나 언제 어디서나 서비스를 제공받을 수 있다는 것은 언제 어디서든지 정보가 누출되거나 왜곡될 위험성 또한 존재하기 마련이다. 특히, 프라이버시 문제가 해결되지 않고서는 우리 일상생활과 융합되어 편리함을 제공해주는 모바일 네트워크 환경이 오히려 모바일 네트워크 감시 체제를 구축하는 심각한 역기능을 초래하게 될 것이다. 모바일 단말기들은 크기와 모양이 다양하고 컴퓨팅 연산 능력이 적은 저성능 휴대 장치들이 많기 때문에, 컴퓨팅 연산이 많이 요구되는 공개키 암호 기술을 저성능 모바일 단말기에 적용하기는 힘든 상황이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 프라이버시 문제를 해결하면서, 컴퓨팅 연산 능력이 적은 저성능 모바일 단말기에 적용할 수 있는 자바 기반의 암호 모듈 및 PKI 기반의 사용자 인증을 제안하고자 한다. 국내 표준 암호 알고리즘(SEED)과 인증서를 기반으로 세션키와 공개키를 조합함으로서 최소한의 암복호화 연산을 통해 인증 및 전자 서명을 제공하며, 이를 대표적인 모바일 단말기인 PDA 환경에서 세션키 분배 및 사용자 인증이 안전하게 이루어짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

Background: Leakage, stricture formation, and tumor recurrence at the anastomotic site are serious problems after esophagectomy for cancer of the esophagus or cardia. The prevalence of these postoperative complications may be affected by whether an anastomosis is made in the neck or in the chest, therefore a comparison was made between anastomoses made at these two sites. Material and Method: Between 1987 and 1998, 36 patients with cancer of the esophagus underwent transthoracic esophagectomy with cervical(NA, n=20) or thoracic anastomosis(CA, n=16). The tumors were staged postoperatively(stage IIA, n=13; s tage IIB, n=7; stage III, n=16) and were located in the middle thoracic(n=22) or lower thoracic esophagus and cardia(n=14). Result: The overall operative mortality was 8.3%(5% for NA group, 12.5% for CA group). The anastomotic leak rate for the NA group was 15.0% and 12.5% for the CA group. The anastomotic leak rate differed according to the manual(27.3%) or stapled(8.0%) techniques(p < 0.05). The median proximal resection margins in the NA and CA groups were 9.6 cm and 5.8 cm, and the corresponding rates of anastomotic tumor recurrence were 5.3% and 28.6%(p < 0.05). The prevalence of benign stricture formation (defined as moderate/severe dysphagia) was higher in the NA group(36.8%) than in the CA group(21.4%). When an anastomosis was made by the stapled technique, smaller size of the staple increased the prevalence of stricture formation - 41.7% with 25-mm staple and 9.1% with 28-mm staple(p < 0.05). Conclusion: Wider resection margin could decrease the anastomotic tumor recurrence, and the stapled technique could decrease the anastomotic leak. The prevalence of benign stricture was higher in the cervical anastomosis but the anastomotic leak and smaller size(25-mm) of the staple should be considered as risk factors.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the structural risk and weakness of a railway tank car through nonlinear collision analysis according to overseas collision safety standards. The goal is to propose a crash safety design guideline for railway tank cars for transporting dangerous goods in Korea. We analyzed the buffer impact test procedure of railway freight cars prescribed in EN 12663-2 and the tank puncture test criteria prescribed in 49CFR179. A nonlinear finite element model according to each standard was modeled using LS-DYNA, a commercial finite element analysis solver. As a result of the buffing impact test simulation, it was predicted that plastic deformation would not occur at a collision speed of 6 km/h or less. However, plastic deformation was detected at the rear of the center sill and at the tank center supporting the structure at a collision speed of 8 km/h or more. As a result of a head-on test simulation of tank puncture, the outer tank shell was destroyed at the corner of the tank head when 4% of the kinetic energy of the impacter was absorbed. The tank shell was destroyed in the area of contact with the impacter in the test mode analysis of tank shell puncture when the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle was reduced by 30%. Therefore, the simulation results of the puncture test show that fracture at the tank shell and leakage of the internal material is expected. Consequently, protection and structural design reinforcement are required on railway tank cars in Korea.

Safety and quality assessment systems are very important in manufacture, storage, transportation, and handling of hazardous materials(hazmat) to prevent hazmat disasters. At present, hazardous materials exist everywhere in our daily lives with various forms of plastics, household products of cleaning and washing detergents, fertilizers or petroleum-related products. However, hazardous materials are dangerous substances when they are released to human or environment. Hazardous materials become very widely used substances in the age of oil-based industrial economy. The Korean Ministry of Environment (KMOE) describes about one hundred thousand types of chemicals are produced and used worldwide. Over four hundred new chemicals are introduced in every year. A crucial question for the Korean hazardous material management may have been raised: Will you be safe from hazardous material incidents? The gas leak disaster at Union Carbide's Bhopal, India in 1984 that made over 6,400 people killed and 30,000 to 40,000 people seriously injured is the representative case for the safety of hazmat. Korea becomes vulnerable to hazmat disaster due to the development of high-tech industry. Thus, the risk assessment system is required to Korea for transferring abandoned hazmat management systems to self-correcting safety systems. This research analyzed characteristics of various hazmat incidents applying statistical analysis methods including frequency analysis or analysis of category data to hazmat incidents for ten years. All of three analyses of category data indicate the significance of causality between hazmat incident site groups and seasons, regional groups, and incident casualty groups.

This study selected the worst-case scenario for fireball and vapor cloud explosion (VCE) of a styrene monomer storage tank installed in a petrochemical production plant and performed damage prediction and accident impact analysis. The range of influence of radiant heat and overpressure due to fireball and vapor VCE during the abnormal polymerization reaction of styrene monomer, the main component of the mixed residue oil storage tank, was quantitatively analyzed by applying the e-CA accident damage prediction program. The damage impact areas of radiant heat and explosion overpressure are analyzed to have a maximum radius of 1,150m and 626m, respectively. People within 1,150m of radiant heat of 4kW/m2 may have their skin swell when exposed to it for 20 seconds. In buildings within 626m, where an explosion overpressure of 21kPa is applied, steel structures may be damaged and separated from the foundation, and people may suffer physical injuries. In the event of a fire, explosion or leak, determine the risk standards such as the degree of risk and acceptability to workers in the work place, nearby residents, or surrounding facilities due to radiant heat or overpressure, identify the hazards and risks of the materials handled, and establish an emergency response system. It is expected that it will be helpful in establishing measures to minimize damage to workplaces through improvement and investment activities.

In this study, a quantitative risk impact assessment is performed using an ALOHA program to identify the risks when applying ammonia as fuel for combined cycle power plants as one of the solutions of climate change. The worst and the alternative accident scenarios are established for the Sejong combined cycle power plant and the effective ranges are calculated in terms of flammability, thermal radiation, overpressure and toxicity. The analysis results show that the toxic risk is the most critical and the effective distance is highly proportional to the mixing ratio of natural gas and ammonia by showing the Pearson's correlation coefficient over 98% as 0.991, 0.987 and 0.989 for the Level Of Concern(LOC)-1, LOC-2 and LOC-3, respectively. In addition, the coefficients of linearity for LOC-1, LOC-2 and LOC-3 are calculated to 133, 70 and 29, respectively so it can be confirmed that the effective distance increases as the criterion decreases.

현행 가스법상 지상식 LNG 저장탱크에 있어서 일정 용량의 저장탱크 주위에는 액상의 가스가 누출된 경우에 그 유출을 방지할 수 있는 방류둑(Dike) 또는 이와 동등 이상의 효과가 있는 시설을 설치하도록 규정하고 있어, 실제로 모든 지상식 LNG 저장탱크에 대해서 별도의 방류둑 설치를 의무화하고 있다. 또한, 예외규정으로 국제기준(international codes and standards)에 의해 설계되는 저장탱크는 심의를 통해 방류둑 기능을 인정할 수 있도록 하고 있다. 외국의 경우 LNG 저장탱크는 일반적으로 자국내 법령보다는 국제기준에 의해 건설됨으로써 1차 탱크로부터 일정거리의 둘레에 방류둑이 필요한 단일방호식 저장탱크 이외에 이중방호식, 완전방호식(full-containment) 및 멤브레인식(membrane) 저장탱크의 경우 외부(콘크리트, 강재)탱크가 방류둑 기능을 가지고 있어 별도의 방류둑이 필요없는 구조로 규정하고 있다. 멤브레인 LNG 저장탱크의 경우 프랑스, 일본 및 한국이 설계기술을 보유하고 있고, 최근 프랑스 및 한국에서 별도의 방류둑 없는 지상식 멤브레인 저장탱크 건설이 추진되고 있으나 양국 모두 자국법의 방류둑 규정에 의해 건설의 장애요소로 작용하고 있다. 따라서 지상식 멤브레인 LNG 저장탱크의 방류둑 기능에 대한 각 국의 법령 및 기준을 조사하고, 방류둑 일체형 저장탱크(완전방호식 및 멤브레인 저장탱크)의 형식별 안전성 평가 자료를 비교 검토함으로써 방류둑 일체형 멤브레인 저장탱크의 국내 도입의 타당성을 검토하고자 하였다. 조사결과 유럽, 미국 및 일본에서는 이중벽 LNG 저장탱크의 경우 콘크리트 외부탱크가 방류둑 기능을 가지는 것으로 규정하고 있으며, 특히 EN 1473과 제정중인 prEN 265002에서는 멤브레인 저장탱크의 경우 내부 멤브레인 탱크 누출시 단열시스템과 함께 외부 콘크리트 탱크가 액밀성 및 기밀성을 동시에 가지는 것으로 별도의 방류둑이 불필요함을 규정하고 있다. 프랑스 및 일본의 방류둑 일체형 LNG 저장탱크에 대한 위험성 평가 결과를 검토한 결과 멤브레인 저장탱크와 완정방호식 저장탱크는 안전성 차원에서 거의 동일한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 국내에서 개발한 지상식 멤브레인 LNG 저장탱크 설계모델에 대한 안전성 제고 및 안전성 평가 등을 통해 객관적인 안전성 근거가 확보된다면 동 탱크의 경우에도 완전방호식 LNG 저장탱크와 같이 외부콘크리트 저장탱크의 방류둑 기능인정이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In the present study, the safety of the near surface disposal facility for low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste (LILW) is examined based on the fluid-flow simulation model. The effects of the structural design and hydrological properties of the disposal system are quantitatively evaluated by estimating the flux of infiltrated water at the boundary of the structure. Additionally, the safety margins of the disposal system, especially for the cover layer and vault, are determined by applying the various scenarios with consideration of possible facility designs and precipitation conditions. The overall results suggest that the disposal system used in this study is sufficiently suitable for the safe operation of the facility. In addition, it is confirmed that the soundness of both the cover layer and the vault have great impact on the safety of the facility. Especially, as shown in the vault degradation scenario, capability of the concrete barrier of the vault make more positive contribution on the safe operation of the facility compared to that of the cover layer.

A variety of services for mobile payments by the activation of FinTech have been developed. Various payment methods were developed, and an authentication method was developed to improve the reliability of the payment. On the other hand, when mobile easy payment services are used, they have weak security because the authentication by phone number. Therefore, this paper proposes a technique for increasing the reliability of the authentication process using the unique device ID of the mobile device to improve the authentication process based on the telephone number. The core research contents are the architecture and process for the authentication of mobile payments based on the mobile device ID. The mobile payment architecture consists of a mobile device, authentication service, and mobile payment application. The mobile device consists of mobile device ID and phone number, and the authentication server consists of authentication module and encryption module. The mobile payment service consists of a pre-authentication module and decryption module. The process of mobile payment service is processed by the encrypted authentication information (device ID, phone number, and authentication number) among mobile devices, authentication server, and mobile payment application. The mobile device sends the telephone number and the device ID to the authentication server and the authentication server authenticates the user through an authentication process and encryption process. The mobile payment application performs the pre-authentication process by decrypting the received authentication number. This paper reports a difference that can prevent the risk of leakage of the authentication number in existing payment services through the authentication process of the authentication server and the pre-authentication process of the mobile payment service of this paper.

In this paper, we proposed a system to raise gas safety management by using the wireless communication module and intelligent gas safety appliances. Our designed systems configure a micom-gas meter, an automatic extinguisher, sensors, and a wallpad. A micom-gas-meter monitors gas flow, gas pressure, and earthquake. An automatic fire extinguisher checks gas(combustible) leaks and temperature of $100^{\circ}C$ and $130^{\circ}C$. Sensors measure smoke and CO gas. In our novel system, a micom-gas meter cut off inner valve with warnings, an automatic fire extinguisher cut off middle valve and spray extinguishing materials, and sensors generate signals for smoke and CO when occurring gas risk. Gas safety appliances and sensors takes safety measures, and transmit those signal to a wallpad. The wallpad again transmit signal like events to a control server. Users can connect web pages for gas safety through B-ISDN and control and manage them. We hereby devised scenarios for gas safety and risk management, and demonstrated their effectiveness through experiments.
