위험물들은 위험물의 사용 및 관리뿐만 아니라 수송시에도 많은 위험성을 내포하고 있어 각국에서는 적당한 기준을 마련하여 특별히 관리하고 있다. 우리나라 철도 위험물안전수송에 관한 철도안전법 개정을 위하여 국내 철도 위험물의 수송량과 종류를 분석하고 국내외 위험물분류기준을 비교하였다. 우리나라는 지리적으로 대륙을 연결하기 편리한 위치에 있어 향후 국경을 넘어 대륙을 횡단하는 국제법을 채택하는 것이 유리하고, 수송되어야 할 물질의 종류가 다양해질 것을 대비하여 국제적으로 통용될 수 있는 위험물일람표를 채택하는 것을 제안하였다.

Many countries are managing the transportation of hazardous materials under the specific provisions especially, as well as use, storage and management, because of their high risks. For the purpose of the revision of rail safety law for the safe transportation of hazardous materials, amount and kind of hazardous materials transported by rail in Korea are analysed and the standards of classification of hazardous materials are compared in domestic and abroad. There are lots of benefits for national rail safety law to implement an international law because our country's geographic location is convenient to connect the continent and to across the border. It is suggested that implementing a classification and test methods of hazardous materials enable to use internationally for the preparation of rail transportation to be increased.

The object of this study is to develop a tool for quantifying risks related to the rail transportation of hazardous commodities and to present mitigation measures. In this study, the Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) is used as a risk analysis tool. Based on the previous explosion history (Iri explosion) and consideration of its high risk, Iksan-si is selected as a model city. The result, expressed as average individual risk for exposed people with various distance, indicates that the model city is considered to be safe according to the nuclear energy standard. Also, the mitigation measures are provided since Societal risk of Iksan-si is set within ALARP. Risk reduction measures include rail car design, rail transportation operation, demage spread control as well as derail prevention and alternative routes for reducing accident frequencies. Finally, it is expected to achieve high level of public safety by appling the risk reduction measures.

생활을 향상시키고 개선하기 위해 화학물질은 전 세계적으로 널리 이용 되고 있고, 또한 국내에는 38,000여종의 화학물질이 유통되고 있다. 그러나 화학물질은 그 이점에도 불구하고 사람이나 환경에 유해 영향을 가져올 가능성이 있어 위험물안전관리법에서는 3,000여종을 위험물로 분류하여 규제하고 있다. 위험물에 관련하여 유해화학물질관리법, 위험물안전관리법, 고압가스안전관리법, 총포 도검 화약류단속법, 원자력 진흥법, 농약관리법 등에서 개별적으로 규정하고 분류하고 있어 위험물질에 대한 표지사항이 해당 부처에 따라 상이하여 혼란을 야기하고 있고, 위험물에 대한 품목 및 품명의 고정으로 인하여 새롭게 생성된 위험물질에 대해 적용하는 데 문제점이 있다. 이에 의해 위험물질을 개별법에 따라 관리함으로써 중복된 위험물질 분류 및 관리의 문제가 있으며, 위험물질 분류에 있어서 위험물질에 따라 수송수단이 상이함에도 불구하고 수송수단별(도로, 철도, 해운, 항공) 위험물질에 대한 세분화된 자료가 부족하다. 따라서 수송관점에서 표준화된 위험물 물질정보의 분류와 코드화 방안개발이 필요하다. 본 연구는 국내 외 문헌 검토 및 위험물에 관련된 법제도 비교를 통하여 위험물 수송관리체계 정비방안과 위험물 수송사고의 문제점을 도출하고 기존의 위험물 분류체계에서 운송관점에서의 위험물 매칭테이블을 구축하고 신속한 사고대응을 위한 위험물질별 코드화 방안을 제안하도록 하겠다.

Due to the industrialization and urbanization, the transport of hazardous materials increases, which rises possibilities in occurring prospective accidents in terms of hazardous material transport as well. This study applied the model developed from the previous research to analyze the scale of damage areas from the accidents related to hazardous material accidents, as well as suggested a method to measure automatically the scale of accident including casualties and environmental damage based on the guideline which suggests the quantities of hazardous materials exposed from an accident and was defined in the study of standardization for hazardous material classification. A buffering analysis technique of Geographic Information System (GIS) was applied for that. To apply the model which evaluates the scale of population and exposure to environment on each link, rail network, zones, rail accident data, rail freight trips, and locations of rivers etc were complied as a database for GIS analysis. In conclusion, a method to measure damage areas by the types of hazardous materials was introduced using a Clip and a Special Join technique for overlay analysis.

21세기의 사회적 환경변화는 크게 개도국의 인구증가, 선진국 인구감소, 인구의 노령화(2025년 전세계 인구의 20%가 65세 이상)와 연관된 인구통계의 변화와 경제발전으로 인한 세계화, 도시화(현재 전세계 인구의 45%가 도시지역에 생활하고 있으나, 2025년에는 60%로 증가) 등의 문제가 나타날 것으로 예측되며, 이로 인해 유동인구 및 물동량의 증가로 수송시스템에 대한 수요가 급격하게 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 특히 철도는 안전성, 정시성, 환경친화성, 대량수송성, 경제성 등에 장점을 바탕으로 국가교통의 핵심수단으로 확대되고 있다. 그러나, 미래사회는 각종 재해, 테러 등 다양한 위험원의 증가에 노출되면서, 안전에 대한 사회적 요구도 또한 증대될 것이다.

Recently, there are so many studies related safety of railway vehicle. But these studies are focused on the passenger car, metro system and high speed train. However, the leakage of hazardous materials may contaminate the environment and cause terrible damage to the ecology, even the human and properties. And so, Safety and security have been already established in many countries, currently they are investing lots of money on the development of technology to prevent accidents. Therefore it is necessary to make a systematic plan and develop safety specifications. In this study, we compared between domestic and international general oil tank car safety regulations for the hazardous materials, and prepare the basic for the making of systematic safety plans and safety regulations for the transport of hazardous materials by tank car.

This paper deals with a methodology for searching optimal route of hazard material (hazmat) vehicles. When we make a decision of hazmat optimal paths, there is a conflict between the public aspect which wants to minimize risk and the private aspect which has a goal of minimizing travel time. This paper presents Efficient Vector Labeling algorithm as a methodology for searching optimal path of hazmat transportation, which is intrinsically one of the multi-criteria decision making problems. The output of the presented algorithm is a set of Pareto optimal paths considering both risk and travel time at a time. Also, the proposed algorithm is able to identify non-dominated paths which are significantly different from each other in terms of links used. The proposed Efficient Vector Labeling algorithm are applied to test bed network and compared with the existing k-shortest path algorithm. Analysis of result shows that the proposed algorithm is more efficient and advantageous in searching reasonable alternative routes than the existing one.

In this study, we researched about characteristics of many kinds of tank cars for carrying hazard materials and performed structural strength evaluation using finite element analysis for tank of asphalt tank car to suggest the efficient analysis method that can develop accuracy regarding to characteristics of tank cars. For this, we analyzed the asphalt tank refer to JIS E 7102 (Design Method for Tanks of Tank Cars). As results, we could show that the maximum stress is applied at the area supported by saddle and the maximum stress is under a criterion suggested from JIS E 7102. Therefore we verified that this asphalt tank car had enough structural strength.
