  • PURPOSES : This study deals with the pedestrian accidents in case of Cheongju. The goals are to develop the pedestrian accident model. METHODS : To analyze the accident, count data models, truncated count data models and Tobit regression models are utilized in this study. The dependent variable is the number of accident. Independent variables are traffic volume, intersection geometric structure and the transportation facility. RESULTS : The main results are as follows. First, Tobit model was judged to be more appropriate model than other models. Also, these models were analyzed to be statistically significant. Second, such the main variables related to accidents as traffic volume, pedestrian volume, number of Entry/exit, number of crosswalk and bus stop were adopted in the above model. CONCLUSIONS : The optimal model for pedestrian accidents is evaluated to be Tobit model.

  • Headache is symptom of many people suffered. It caused simply by fatigue, stress, but it also caused by inflammation, mechanical or chemical stimulus, circulation disorder, brain damage. Modern societies develop rapidly by traffic system. But lately it suffering with many traffic problem. Traffic accident is most important of many traffic problem. We experienced a 35 year-old female who complained headache, caused by a traffic accident that happened 22 month ago. We treated the patient by the way of Eo-hyeol (瘀血) type of headache with Herbal medication and Acupuncture. After being treated, the patient show that symptoms(headache, insomnia, anorexia) was improved considerably. This result suggests that oriental medicine treatment has good effect on headache due to traffic accident.

  • The construction industry is one of the most prolific disaster-prone industries, particularly those that suffer from falling disasters compared to other industries. The safety accident at the construction site leads to social problems caused by massive loss of life and property, so it needs to be extra careful. The reason why falls are the most frequent accidents of the types of construction accidents is due to the analysis of the risk factors of safety accidents and the development of various construction methods. Therefore, in this study, the accident case for the fallen victims of construction site was analyzed and the risk factor was selected. Based on the safety expert survey, an importance analysis was performed. In conclusion, this study analyzes various risk factors that affect the occurrence of falls, identifies the importance of each factor, and presents basic data for safety accident prevention activities.

  • In recent 5 years, the 70 percent of the ship's accident was occurred in the fishing vessels, and most of them were the engine troubles and collisions. The capsizing accident was comparatively low portion of occupation, which took only 2 percent, but the scale of accident and the loss of lives and property are known very tremendous. In this paper, it was examined for the stability provisions of fishing vessels in domestic and international to reduce the capsizing of them. Also, it was made an analysis for the case of capsizing accidents to suggest the measures against the capsizing.

  • Ships' collision accident has often occurred in congested waterways or in harbour areas. To examine the cause of collision accident may be necessary to prevention against another similar one. We discuss the construction of ship-manoeuvring-simulator system used for reproducing ships' collision phenomenon The system consists of one simulator bridge for own ship and two control consoles for own ship and target ship. Own ship and target ship are linked each other, and are simultaneously manoeuvred in simulator bridge or at control console respectively. And a simulator experiment for reproducing ships' collision phenomenon and for examining the cause of accident is carried out. Through the present case study, we find out that the constructed simulator system is very useful for reproducing ships' collision phenomenon and for examining the cause of accident.

  • When happen the electrical facilities accident the one's diagnosis system of fault cause was constructed by FMEA method Cable accident cause is given by accident cause that can happen in each one's diagnosis and accident probability value. From the verification of system, the one's diagnosis system agreed well with result that analyzed actual state. Thus, the system is judged to be used effectively examine for accident cause of electrical facilities.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study was to report the effect of Korean medicine treatment on a patient with somatic symptom disorder hospitalized after a traffic accident. Methods: The subject for this study was a patient diagnosed with somatic symptom disorder that worsened after a traffic accident. During hospitalization, herbal medicine, acupuncture, psychotherapy, and other treatments were performed. Clinical effect was evaluated using Heart Rate Variability (HRV), BDI (Beck Depression Inventory)-II, BAI (Beck Anxiety Inventory), Global assessment (G/A), and Numerical rating scale (NRS). Results: After 36 days of treatment, BDI-II score was reduced from 17 to 5. BAI score was reduced from 23 to 8. Overall somatic symptoms and pain showed decreases. Conclusions: Korean medicine treatment might be effective for somatic symptom disorder that is worsened after a traffic accident.

  • The registration rate of eco-friendly vehicles, such as hydrogen vehicles, is increasing rapidly, however, few first responders have experienced related accidents. Accident scenarios at hydrogen refueling stations and hydrogen vehicles on a road were investigated, and the relative importance of each scenario was analyzed using AHP analysis. Leakage, jet flame, and explosion that occurred inside and outside the hydrogen refueling station were reviewed, and the hydrogen gas explosion in the compartment showed the highest importance value. In case of the hydrogen vehicle, traffic accident statistics and actual accidents were used. It was analyzed that the hydrogen vessel explosion on the road due to the failure of TPRD and the leakage in the underground parking area were difficult to respond. The developed accident scenarios are expected to be used for first responder training.

  • Along with an increase in marine activities every year, the frequency of marine accidents is on the rise. Accordingly, various research activities and policies for marine safety are being implemented. Despite these efforts, the number of accidents are increasing every year, bringing their effectiveness into question. Preliminary studies relying on annual statistical reports provide precautionary measures for items that stand out significantly, through the comparison of statistical provision items. Since the 2000s, large-scale marine accidents have repeatedly occurred, and case studies have examined the "accident response." Likewise, annual statistics or accident cases are used as core data in policy formulation for domestic maritime safety. However, they are just a summary of post-accident results. In this study, limitations of current marine research and policy are evaluated through a literature review of case studies and analyses of marine accidents. In addition, the ontology of the marine accident information classification system will be revised to improve the current limited usage of the information through an attribute analysis of boating accident status reports and text mining. These aspects consist of the reporter, the report method, the rescue organization, corrective measures, vulnerability of response, payloads, cause of oil spill, damage pattern, and the result of an accident response. These can be used consistently in the future as classified standard terms to collect and utilize information more efficiently. Moreover, the research proposes a data collection and quality assurance method for the practical use of ontology. A clear understanding of the problems presently faced in marine safety will allow "suf icient quality information" to be leveraged for the purpose of conducting various researches and realizing effective policies.
