Actually, The present traffic accident detection system is subsisting limitation of accurate distinction under the crowded condition at intersection because the system defend upon mainly the image information at intersection and digital image processing techniques nearly all. To complement this insufficiency, this article aims to estimate the level of present technology and a realistic possibility by analyzing the acoustic characteristic of crash sound that we have to investigate for improvement of traffic accident detection rate at intersection. The skid sound of traffic accident is showed the special pattern at 1[kHz])${\sim}$3[kHz] bandwidth when vehicles are almost never operated in and around intersection. Also, the frequency bandwidth of vehicle crash sound is showed sound pressure difference oyer 30[dB] higher than when there is no occurrence of traffic accident below 500[Hz].

In modern society, automobile is necessary vehicle. Automobile is a series of modern convenient. And the number of automobile is on the increase. But from you to year, automobile accident is on the increase, also. One of most reason that cause automobile accident is drowsiness driving. So, we plan to construct automobile system for drowsiness accident prevention for decreasing automobile accident. In this research, we built a drowsiness detecting device using EDA (Electro Dermal Activity) signal which is electric response in the human body skin. There are SIL (Skin Impedance Level) and SIR (Skin Impedance Response) in EDA. Mostly, SIL consists of DC element. On the other hand, SIL consists of AC element. We could detect the drowsiness condition with SIL and SIR signal.

As the construction industry has been increasingly complex, aging workers, hard-working avoiding young generation, foreign workers having language problem for the past decades, delivering of construction qualified workers has been a rising problem. This misalignment between the complex jobs and the number of skilled workers will continue to be in issue that the construction industry will face for following decades. Construction field workers who are working outside in uncontrollable condition unlike manufacturing industry are exposed to easily construction safety accident. There are so many efforts to prevent and control the construction accident. However, the relationships between the construction works and construction safety accident has not been well dealt and investigated based on objective accident data except for the qualitative study through interview, delphi and so on. Therefore this study analyzes job risk matrix exposed to safety accidents based on statistic data for 20 years from Korean Occupational Safety & Health Agency in order to prevent the construction field accidents.

This study was attempted to evaluate and explain the correlation between stress and utilization of Dispensary, Frequency of absence, Frequency of accident as the health condition of bluecollared workers. The subjects for this study were 260 workers selected conveniently from 360 workers working at one chemical manufacturer located in Seoul. The dataas measure the Stress was collected through SRRS (The Social Readjustment Rating Scale) which is developed by Holmes ＆ Rahe (1976) from 27th July to 10th August, 1983. The data of Utilization of Dispensary and Frequency of Accident were brought out from the record of Dispensary during past 8 months. The Frequency of Abscence from January to August were collected through diligence and indolence cards of each department. All collected data were analysed based on the SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Science) program. The results of the study are as follows: 1. The average of Utilization of Dispensary was 7.4, Frequency of abscence 14.6, frequency of Accident 0.4. 2. The average score of Stress was 134 (minimum : 0, maximum : 593, Standard deviation : 109. 3) It can be considered as a slight stressed group by the requlations of Holmes and Rahe. 3. According to the analysed results of correlation between Stress and the Utilization of Dispensary, Frequency of Absence, frequency of Accident, the Utilization of dispensary and stress were significantly related (r= .1955, p<.001), the Frequency of Absence (r=.0284, p >, 05), and the Frequency of Absence (r=.0284, p>.05), and the Frequency of Accident (r= .0831, p>.05) were not significantly related with Stress. 4. In the relation between general characters of subjects and the Utilization of Dispensary, 20 to 25 aged group, women, single, christian, lent-house dwelling, 1 to 5 years employed group used at a high ratio. 5. In the relation between general character of subjects and the Frequency of Absence, men, 51 to 55 aged group, 21 to 25 years employed group indicated high Frequency, and other char-noters were not significantly related. 6. In the relation between general characters of subjects and the Frequency of Accident, women. single, 20 to 25 aged group, catholic, lent-house dwelling, below 1 year employed group showed high frequency. 7. Stress showed a significant difference only with a religion. Catholic group represented mode-rate stressed scored 209.67, and not significantly related with other general characters.

By evaluating the health status of 152 male workers engaged in a metal-product factory by Cornell Medical Index in conjunction with their experience of industrial accident, I attempted to find out whether any health condition may effect on the occurence of industrial accident. Differences in frequency of complaints in each section of CMI between control workers and accident workers were statistically tested by T-test. On the other hand, influence of neuropsychiatric factors (section M-R) on the occurence of accidents was analyzed by $X^2-test$ with Fukamachi's classification. The followings were the results obtained in this study. 1. The average number (26.42) of physical complaints in accident group is significantly more than in control group (18.70). 2. The average number (17.70) of mental complaints in accident group is very significantly more than in control group (11.70). 3. Differences in frequencies of complaints by sections between accident group and control group was all significant except C (cardiovascular system), H (genitourinary system), I (fatigue) & J (frequency of disease). 4. frequency rate of neurotic workers who were identified by Fukamachi's classification was significantly higher in accident group (72%) than in control group (51%).

The purpose of this study is to try to find the risk of roller(mixing mill) in working site. In order to achieve the purpose, accident analysis and survey was carried out. This analysis revealed that average of loss days is 334.3 by roller jamming accident and 229.2 by other causes. It means jamming accident entails serious bodily harm. According to our research, we realize that most of rollers have some risk of the jamming accidents. It is simply because the roll gap in the roller is not more than 10cm. It also does not meet minimum distance so as to avoid the risk for jamming accident by KS. Furthermore, 28% of rollers have only one switch and 40% of rollers have two switches operating emergence stop equipment so as to reduce the risk of jamming accidents. Therefore, we presume that it is very difficult to turn on the switch of emergence stop equipment when they confront the accident because most of engineers are working alone.

Background: A numerical simulation was carried out to investigate the difference between internal and external heat-flux distributions at the reactor vessel wall under in-vessel retention through external reactor vessel cooling (IVR-ERVC). Methods: Total loss of feed water, station blackout, and large break loss of coolant accidents were selected as the severe accident scenarios, and a transient analysis using the element-birth-and-death technique was conducted to reflect the vessel erosion (vessel wall thickness change) effect. Results: It was found that the maximum heat flux at the focusing region was decreased at least 10% when considering the two-dimensional heat conduction at the reactor vessel wall. Conclusion: The results show that a higher thermal margin for the IVR-ERVC strategy can be achieved in the focusing region. In addition, sensitivity studies revealed that the heat flux and reactor vessel thickness are dominantly affected by the molten corium pool formation according to the accident scenario.
