The characteristic of fatigue crack growth in the homogeneous or the soft welded connections used SWS-53 steel and HT-80 steel as base metals is examined by fractographic analysis. As a result of this analysis, the fact that the characteristic of fatigue crack growth which is observed and measured at the surface has wide application to engineering practice is verified. Also, the fact that the welded parts of HT-80 steel have much danger of brittle fracture is prooved. Considering that the striations are observed at the welded parts of SWS-58 steel and the spacing of striations has higher numerical value than da/dN, we can prove that inner fatigue crack growth may develop in zig-zag directions.

최근 친환경과 헬스케어에 관심이 높아짐과 더불어 자전거 타는 것에도 관심이 높아지고 있다. 우리나라 정부에서도 거기에 발맞춰 자전거 전용도로를 전국에 설치하기고 했다. 처음 자전거를 배우기 시작해서 어느 정도 중심을 잡게 되면 보통 변속기를 사용하게 된다. 변속기를 사용하게 되면 승차 자들은 도로나 환경에 맞지 않게 미숙하게 변속을 하게 되며, 이에 따른 사용자의 조작에 사용하는 엄지 또는 검지의 손가락에 피로감이 높아지고 안전위험이 증가하게 되지만, 사용하는 개인들은 그것을 모르고 사용하는 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 자전거 사용을 활성화 하고 안전에 도움을 주고, 변속 조작에 사용하는 엄지 또는 검지 손가락 피로를 줄일 수 있는 디지털변속기를 개발하였다. 디지털변속기를 사용함으로 자전거 변속에 어려운 승차 자들을 위해 디지털 변속을 사용하므로 서 주행효율을 개선하고, 안전하게 자전거를 사용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 승차 자가 속도 및 구배 정확하지 않는 변속에 의한 피로가 누적되어 하체에 무리가 많이 가게 되어서, 이로 인해 사고율도 높아 질수 있다. 기존 변속에 의한 문제점들을 해결하여 자전거의 운용을 효율성과 편의성을 개선하여, 안전 주행이 가능하게 하는 디지털 변속기를 개발 하였다.

Approximately 70% of aviation accidents in the world are caused by human factors of pilots and 15-20% of these accidents are known to be caused by pilot fatigue. Recently ICAO established new standards of FRMS for aircrew. The US and the EU have introduced FRMS and established and operated new aviation regulation systems for pilot flight(duty) time limitations. On the other hand, Korea has not yet introduced FRMS. This study reviewed ICAO's standards of FRMS and analyzed the aviation regulations of the US and the EU. As a result of this study, it showed that Korea also needed to introduce FRMS. This study reasoned out plans to improve Korean aviation regulations about pilot flight time limitations based on international standards.

Pilot fatigue is a great hazard to aviation safety. In recent years, long-distance fights have been increasing and flight hours have been increasing, which has made fatigue issues important. International organizations in the aviation sectors (ICAO, FAA, IATA etc.) recommend management of fatigue within the SMS (Safety Management System) framework. A scientific and systematic approach to measuring fatigue is required as a prerequisite to preparing safety management measures for pilot's fatigue. Therefore, in this study, I would like to consider recent trends and implications for fatigue measurement. First, I aimed to consider recent the accident cases related to fatigue. Second, I also considered how to measure the pilot's fatigue. Finally, the direction of the countermeasures against fatigue through fatigue measurement was developed and suggested.

해양사고의 주요 원인으로 언급되고 있는 피로요인은 장시간 소요되는 선박의 운항과정에서 발생할 수 있는 사고발생의 주된 요인이다. 이러한 피로의 유발 요인 중 하나인 음주운항으로, 이로 인한 해양사고는 대형 인명피해 뿐만 아니라 해양환경오염이라는 국가적 대재난으로 이어질 수 있다. 다행히 「해사안전법」 시행령 개정에 따라 주취운항 단속 기준 (혈중알콜농도 기준)이 기존 0.08%에서 2011년 0.05%, 2014년 0.03%로 강화됨에 따라 주취 운항의 위험성에 대한 인식은 개선되고 있으나, 최근 5년 동안 선박 음주 운항 단속 건수는 총 556건으로 나타났으며, 음주운항으로 인한 충돌, 좌초 등의 사고가 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 본 발표에서는 음주운항이 선박운항에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 선박운항 시뮬레이터 데이터 분석을 통한 음주운항 패턴 분석 결과를 소개하고자 한다.

This study examined the fatigue and its association with job stress among male workers engaged in small-scale manufacturing industries. The study subjects were 553 male workers under 50 members of manufacturing industries. The study survey was a structured questionnaire of the Korean Occupational Stress Scale (KOSS) and Multidimensional Fatigue Scale (MFS) during April, 2015. The data were analyzed using the SPSS ver 21.0 program. The results showed that the high risk fatigue group was significantly higher in the high risk group of job stress than in the normal group of job stress. Fatigue was positively correlated with job stress. The odds ratio of the high risk fatigue group were increased significantly in the high risk group of job stress than in the normal group of job stress. The factors of influence with explanatory powers of 27.7% on fatigue included age, marital status, educational level, subject health status, sleeping time, drinking coffee, job tenure, shift work, visiting out-patient department, sense of satisfaction in job life, and job stress. Fatigue was associated with the sociodemographic characteristics, health behavior related characteristics, job-related characteristics, and job stress.

We see many images every day, some of these images are stored in memory, and the majority are immersed in the unconscious world. Visual elements are seen by personal attention or by visual or biological attention factors. Specific and clear discovery of this visual attention has not yet been made. However, there is an interesting discussion of this visual attention in the fields of interior, design, visual perception, advertising, and psychology. Advertising photographers are expected to produce what their work will have on viewers and consumers. However, the adjustment of subject, exposure, color, or post-production, which could have a visual effect on the consumer, was determined only by the photographer's senses rather than the experimental verification. The advertisement photographs provide a specific image related to the object to be advertised and deliver a certain message. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the effect of the image in a certain visual way. According to previous studies, there are two major factors that affect the visual impression of the viewer. One is the factor depending on the type and content of the subject and the other is the factor about the density and color of the subject. The purpose of this study is to investigate the meaningful changes in the visual perception depending on the shape, content, color and tone of the subject, which can be called the main subject, And to analyze the effects of I will study some implications of visual elements through various analyzes.

This study examined the relationship between job stress and fatigue symptom of fire-fighting officials. The study subjects were 330 fire-fighting officials working at five fire stations in the D metropolitan city. The study survey was a structured self-administered questionnaire from September 1 to October 31, 2019. The level of fatigue symptoms and job stress were significantly higher (p<.0.001). By the sub-region, the level of fatigue symptoms and job demand were significantly higher (p=0.046), but the decision latitude, the supervisor support, and co-worker support were lower (p=0.006, p<0.001, and p<0.001, respectively). The level of fatigue symptom showed a significant positive correlation with the total score of job stress (r=0.348, p<0.05) and the job demand (r=0.301, p<0.05). In contrast, it showed a significant negative correlation with the decision latitude (r=-0.306, p<0.05), supervisor support (r=-0.340, p<0.05), and co-worker support (r=-0.355, p<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression showed that the odds ratio of the high-risk fatigue group was significantly higher in the high-risk group of job stress than in the low group of job stress (ORs=3.03, 95% CI=1.13~8.12). These findings suggest that the level of fatigue symptoms of fire-fighting officials is related significantly to job stress.

Traffic accidents on highways are likely to happen when there is an imbalance in the complex relationships among key elements such as road geometries, driver related factors, and mechanical performances. The Demand-Effort Model (DEM), which evaluates highway safety, can be explained by the imbalance, which occurs when the level of demand of the driver's attention to the road environment exceeds that of the response from the driver. This study suggests a new model that improves the reliability of the current DEM through the reinterpretation on the physiological signals with the help of the Neural Network Model (NNM). The data were collected from 149 subjects, who drove a test vehicle on the Yongdong, Honam, and Seohaean Expressways in Korea. Three important results could be drawn from the recursive tests as follows; (1) Only 5 out of 10 parameters on the physiological signals which are currently used were proven to be meaningful through the Normality Test, Cluster Analysis, and Mann-Whitney Analysis. (2) The revised DEM, which internally uses the NNM, showed more reliable results than existing DEM. Group 1, which is based on the new DEM showed 80.0% of accuracy in measuring the level of driver's efforts, however, that of Group 2 based on the current DEM was 74.3%. (3) Field tests on the Honam Expressway showed lower 'type II error' with the new DEM (40.5%) than the old DEM (58.8%). The DEM is designed as a quick and easy way to determine highway safety prior to the minute road safety audit (RSA) by a professional audit team. Then a new DEM, which is based on the NNM, needs to be considered since it showed higher reliability and lower error.
