The purpose of this study is to make people acknowledge the danger of the air terror and provide measures to prevent a recurrence of the accident and find required security. Also, the air terror is categorized into aircraft and airport and take steps to come up with preventive measures against the air terror by finding a countermeasure and precaution. The following steps should be checked to take precautionary measures against the air terror. major security crackdown and the need for a further security check should be conducted to prevent terrorists from boarding the aircraft, security around the airport needs to be tightened up by training the airport workers and promoting emergency situations, airport sheriffs and armed guards should be on patrol for the safety of the cabin, new measures of efficient security for in and around the airport and its facilities should be set up to tighten up security of baggage.

The increased occurrence of flooding due to typhoons and local rainfall has necessitated damage prevention through the systematic construction of damage history and quantitative analysis of flood prediction data. In this study, we constructed a disaster information map for practical use by combining digital images and continuous cadastral maps of damaged areas using a geographic information system to provide basic data and attribute information. In addition, we predicted the areas at risk of flash floods by calculating the flood capacity of the study area for different rainfall frequencies through flood inundation simulation, which was used to obtain comprehensive disaster information. Further, we calculated the extent of the flooded area and the damage rate for different rainfall frequencies using cadastral information. Flood inundation simulation in the case of heavy rainfall was found to help improve the ability to react to a flood and enhance the efficiency of rescue work by supporting decision-making for disaster management.

Recently, many corporations and public institutions are busy preparing and providing measures in dealing with new privacy information law. This study reviews privacy impact assessments in order to perform preventing and diagnosis against potential threats focus on the K-hospital case. The quality of protection in K-hospital shows that the corporations itself is 79.0, the system is 97.0, the life cycle of the privacy is 67.4 and CCTV is 90.0. The lowest levels are saving and keeping 50.0, usage and offer 64.1 and destruction 66.7 among the life cycle of the privacy. The result of risk analysis shows that the highest levels are controlling for privacy 11.0, saving and keeping 12.5 and destruction 13.0. From the result, dangerous duplications are saving and keeping and destructions.

In order to decrease the area damaged by forest fires and to prevent the occurrence of forest fires, we are making an effort to improve prevention measures for forest fires. This study was conducted to forecast risk regions where forest fires occur based on the factors of forest type and topographic characteristics and predict hazard regions where forest fires is expanded to large-scale forest fire based on the forest type characteristics in Uiseong-Gun. The results of classification of forest fire risk and hazard regions using GIS indicate 4% of the total areas in Uiseong-Gun.

Flood disasters on the metropolis where population and facilities were densely concentrated cause an enormous damage, therefore it is important to find risk and vulnerable area for floods, and then mid-long term disaster reduction plan should be established by the results. However, there is no rational method which reflects urban characteristics to estimate the regional safety for flood. so it is necessary to develop the standardized method of regional safety assesment due to urban flood. The proposed regional safety assesment model in this study was combined risk and mitigation score which consisted of three and two element, and 12 assesment factors which effect flood disasters were selected. And then the integrated regional safety was estimated by subtracting mitigation score from risk score. GIS tool was used to estimate the factor assesment and integrated regional safety. Developed regional safety assesment model was applied in Seoul to evaluate the suitability.

Building construction projects have various risk factors, so accidents is easily occurred in construction field. Therefore, many studies have been carried out to find methods for reducing such accidents. However, most of these studies have been focused to engineering factors, such as working methods and safety guards and equipments. The purpose of this study is to select the key accident risk factors in building construction projects. For this study, we identified the accident risk factors, which include engineering, education, and enforcement factors, and quantitatively evaluated these factors using an analytic hierarchical process. Identifying the key accident risk factors will help to reduce accidents in building construction projects.

Top priority to manage construction projects is given to the planning and scheduling in order to keep the project duration, which is one of the most important factors in construction management. However, recently most of public construction projects especially for civil projects are delays and preventive research, many efforts were made concerning construction delays and preventive management methods. But analysis of delay causation, which is a main key to solve the problems is not done, yet. Therefore, in this research causation delays are analyzed by characteristics of construction projects, which are type of projects, type of contracts, project participants, and general condition. As a result of the analysis, delay causation are proved to be different by characteristics of the projects. The research results will be used for prevention of time extension and dispute resolution.

This research proposes strategies about providing detour route information and traffic management for flood disasters. Suggested strategies are based on prevention and preparation concepts including prediction, optimization, and simulation in order to minimize damage. Specifically, this study shows the possibility that average travel speed is increased by proper signal progression during downpours or heavy snowfalls. In addition, in order to protect the drivers and vehicles from dangerous situations, this study proposes a route guidance strategy based on variational inequalities such as flooding. However, other roads can have traffic congestion by the suggested strategies. Thus, this study also shows the possibility to solve traffic congestion of other roads in networks with emergency signal modes.

지구온난화로 인한 홍수빈도 및 강우강도의 증가로 홍수피해의 규모는 더욱 증가하고 있다. 그리고 방재대책도 발생한 피해에 대한 복구를 주된 정책으로 하던 소극적 자세에서 벗어나 과학적 공학적 접근을 통해 재해에 대응할 수 있는 기술을 개발하는 적극적 홍수방어 체계를 구축하고 있다. 또한, 설계빈도의 무조건적인 상향조정에 따른 확정론적인 방법에 의존하기 보다는 추계학적 방법을 도입한 수문량 확충 및 매개변수의 불확실성 분석이 필요성이 대두되고 있는 실정이다. 일반적으로 수공구조물의 설계 시에는 설계홍수량을 사용하는데 이는 홍수특성, 홍수발생빈도, 홍수발생 가능성 등을 수공구조물의 규모와 파괴 시 예상되는 피해 정도에 따라 요구되는 안전성을 함께 고려해 수공구조물의 설계기준으로 활용된다. 설계홍수량은 지속시간과 재현기간을 사전에 지정하여 빈도분석을 통해 설계강우량을 산정하고 이를 강우-유출 분석을 함으로써 산정된다. 설계강우량은 빈도분석을 위해 선택된 강우형태에 따른 수문학적 무작위성을 포함하고 있다. 따라서 시간적 변동을 고려한 적절한 강우양상 형태의 선택은 수문학적으로 안전한 수공구조물의 설계 및 평가에 매우 큰 영향을 미친다. 현재의 경우는 강우형태에 대한 선택이 경험에 의해 임의로 이루어지므로, 토목공학자는 여러 가지 발생 가능한 강우형태에 따른 시간적 분포에 대해 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Huff분위에 따른 무차원 누가 강우곡선을 이용해 강우변동양상 생성을 위한 제약조건을 log-ratio 변환을 이용해 극복하였으며, 결과의 통계 특성치를 Johnson 분포를 통해 표준정규분포로 변환시켰다. 무작위 변수 발생 후 강우양상별 표준정규값의 상관행렬을 이용하여 상관성이 있는 무작위변수로 변환하였다. 얻어진 상관성을 갖는 무작위변수는 log-ratio 역변환을 통해 상관성을 갖는 변수로 재변환해서 무차원화된 강우곡선을 얻을 수 있었다.

Recently, many tsunamis triggered by impulsive undersea ground motions occurred in subduction zones around the Pacific Ocean area including the East Sea surrounded by Korea, Japan and Russia. The wave height of a tsunami may be in the order of several meters, while the wavelength can be up to 1,000 km in the ocean, where the average water depth is about 4 km. A tsunami could cause a severe coastal flooding and property damage not only at neighboring countries but also at distant countries. A fundamental and economic way to mitigate unusual tsunami attacks is to construct tsunami hazard maps along coastal areas vulnerable to tsunami flooding. These maps should be developed based on the historical tsunami events and projected scenarios. The map could be used to make evacuation plans in the event of a real tsunami assault.
