This study analyzes the influential factors and patterns associated with death from aircraft accidents and incidents using data mining techniques. To this end, we used two datasets for aircraft accidents and incidents, one from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and the other from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). We developed our prediction models using the decision tree classifier to predict death from aircraft accidents or aircraft incidents and thereby derive the main cause factors and patterns that can cause death based on these prediction models. In the NTSB data, deaths occurred frequently when the aircraft was destroyed or people were performing dangerous missions or maneuver. In the FAA data, deaths were mainly caused by pilots who were less skilled or less qualified when their aircraft were partially destroyed. Several death-related patterns were also found for parachute jumping and aircraft ascending and descending phases. Using the derived patterns, we proposed helpful strategies to prevent death from the aircraft accidents or incidents.

사고 준사고 선박의 경우 하인리히 법칙에 의거 사고 전 잠재적 요인을 내재하고 있는 선박이 그 예후를 미리 보이는 경우가 많다. 이러한 잠재적 요인의 집계 및 통계를 통해 사고 유발 가능선박을 분리하고, 이 선박들에 한해서는 기존의 사고 후 대책 마련 방식에서 벗어나 대형 사고를 예방하기 위한 방식으로 접근하는 것이 철저하게 필요하다고 본다. 그리하여 동해 VTS 관제 구역 내 사고 유발 가능 선박에 나타났던 잠재적 요인의 예시들과, 기존 접근 방법의 한계점에 대해 논하고, 분리된 선박에 대해 어떠한 식으로 관리할 것인지 논해보고자 한다.

Recently, in an effort to decrease aviation accident worldwide, there has not been any significant decline of the aviation accident rate. Therefore, in the international society, it is more focused on removing risk factors based on data collected and analyzed, in order to improve the aviation safety. This paper introduces on the characteristic of ECCAIRS 5 which become the standard for the worldwide aviation safety reporting and data exchange system. Also, using domestic aviation accident data collected during last 10 years(from 2003 to 2012), we analyze the distribution of the aviation accidents/incidents, annual and monthly aviation accident rate, flight phase, and occurrence category according aircraft type(Fixed/Rotary wing). The analyzation regarding the tendency of aviation accident/serious incident will give the direction to approach the quantitative safety management.

Maritime pilots are always exposed to unpredictable risks present in the marine environment because they are boarding ships through pilot ladders or accommodation ladders at sea. Since the pilot plays an important role in securing the safety of a ship entering or departing from a port, an injury to the pilot substantially affects the overall safety of the ship. The purpose of this study is to analyze pilot injuries and predict accidents. For this purpose, pilot injury cases are analyzed and potential situations are identified through a survey. Pilot injuries are also predicted. The survey was analyzed using the IPA (Importance-Performance Analysis) methodology, and the binomial distribution and Poisson distribution were used to predict injury trends. As a result of the study, 316.8 nearmiss occurred per pilot injury, and if the current accident management system is maintained, the probability of pilot injury occurring within 3 months is 64.4%. Based on the research results, the need for a management system to prevent pilot injuries and reinforcement of maintenance and installation for pilot ladders was suggested.

'UAS flight recording system' is a system that is mounted on an unmanned aircraft system consisting of various components and records flight-related data. The data recorded by this system should be used for aviation accident and incident investigations to prevent similar accidents. In particular, for the category of UAS with high operating risk, safety devices close to that of manned aircraft are required, and it is urgent to develop flight recording systems reflecting the characteristics of the UAS to secure airworthiness. This paper highlights the need for UAS flight recording systems for aviation accident and incident investigations and seek a method to derive flight recording system parameters for 'Certified Category' with high operational risk. To this end, Inter-City UAM was used as a concrete use case, and the process of approaching system parameters was devised by assuming accident occurrences and hazards from mission profiles and scenarios. As a result of the study, it was confirmed that parameters could be derived through this process.

This study analyzes traffic accident severity of old age drivers in fourteen cities and counties of Jeonbuk Province. It is assumed that traffic accident effecting factors have two staged structure by personal and driving environment and urban characteristics. Multilevel Analysis Model is used under the assumption of hierarchical characteristics to analyze factors effecting severity. As the driver's age increases after sixty-five years old, accident damages become severe. The drunk driving is likely to make traffic accident damage more severer. The number of fatal accident by old age drivers is about three time more than by no old age drivers. Old age drivers have higher number of night traffic accidents but severer ones in daytime. Old age drivers show the higher number of traffic accidents but severer ones in fine weather. Wet road surface also influences damage severity and especially old age drivers show higher serious damage and fatal than no old drivers.

Pilots are indispensable and central to the aviation industry, with the relevance of their psychological stress and resultant human errors increasingly recognized as critical. This study aims to meticulously explore the interrelations between psychological stressors and associated factors among helicopter pilots, assessing the consequent effects on potential accidents and incidents. The study comprised active pilots from domestic helicopter airlines, with data collated through both focus group interviews (FGI) and comprehensive surveys. These data were subsequently analyzed using SPSS and AMOS for structural equation modeling. The results reveal that heightened psychological stress in helicopter pilots correlates with an increased incidence of human errors, which in turn, elevates the likelihood of potential safety incidents. Based on these findings, it is proposed that interventions designed to mitigate psychological stress among pilots could significantly reduce human errors and enhance overall aviation safety. This research provides crucial insights into specific ways to improve the operational conditions for helicopter pilots and strengthen the safety protocols within the aviation industry.

항공산업의 초창기에는 항공기 안전사고의 대부분이 기술결함으로 인하여 발생하였다. 그러나 항공기술의 발달로 인한 첨단화, 정밀화되면서 기술결함에 의한 사고는 대폭 감소하였지만 인적요인에 의한 사고는 일정한 수준 감소 이후 꾸준하게 유지하고 있다. ICAO따르면 인적요인의 70~80%가 재발 가능성이 존재하며 독자적인 원인이 아닌 위험요소의 복합적작용으로 발생한다고 기술하고 있다. 이를 방지하기 ICAO에서는 항공안전을 위협하는 사고(ACCIDENTS), 준사고(Serious INCIDENTS), 항공안전장애(HINDRANCES)등의 데이터를 수집, 공유, 분석을 통해 항공안전 위해요소를 사전에 제거, 차단할 수 있는 사전예방 시스템의 수립을 권고하고 있으며 이를 위해 국제사회를 중심으로 의무보고제도, 자율보고제도 등이 활발하게 운영되고 있다. 그러나 국내의 경우 운영시스템의 체계화 및 정부, 관련부처의 노력에도 불구하고 일부보고제도만이 정착되어있고 자율보고제도는 사회적 환경, 문화적 요건의 차이 등으로 인하여 활발하게 운영되지 못하고 있다. 따라서 국내 외 안전자율보고제도의 동향을 바탕으로 해당제도의 효율적인 정착 방안을 모색할 필요가 있을 것이다.
