Since steam generator (SG) tubes are located in the boundary between the primary and secondary systems of nuclear power plant (NPP), the SG is one of the most important components in the aspects of the safety of NPP. The magnetite ($Fe_30_4$) deposition, so-called fouling, is generally known as a major aging mechanism of CANDU SGs, and this aging mechanism makes the heat transfer efficiency between the primary and secondary systems of NPP reduced. Therefore, the development of SG safety assessment system which can evaluate the effect of the SG aging degradation mechanism should be needed for safety of NPP. In this study, through the suggestion of the guideline for SG safety assessment, it is possible to strengthen the basic of establishing the effective SG aging management technique. The SG safety assessment is carried out by CATHENA(Canadian Algorithm for THErmalhydraulic Network Analysis). It is possible to determine the integrity of SGs by identifying the main safety parameters which can be changed by the aging degradation of CANDU SGs.

Korea Electric Power Research Institute(KEPRI) had worked a comprehensive Plant Lifetime Management (PLiM) project for a CANDU plant in corporation with Korea Hydro and Nuclear Power(KHNP). The project had been performed to understand the aging status of major components screened from the plant and to address provisions for the continued operation over its design life. A feasibility of the continued operation was reviewed in the aspects of technology, economics, and regulatory environments. This paper introduces general approach of aging assessment, screening of critical components and an experience of aging assessment for an example of fuel channel that is the most critical component in CANDU plant.

In recent years welfare of animals is the biggest challenge because animals, especially dogs are widely recognized as pet as well as they are using as service animals. So, for the wellbeing of the dog it is necessary to perform objective assessment to track their behavior in everyday life. In this paper, we have proposed an automatic behavior assessment system for dogs based on a neck worn and tail worn accelerometer and gyroscope platform, and data analysis techniques that recognize typical dog activities. We evaluate the system based on the analysis of 8 behavior traits in 3 dogs, incorporating 2 breeds of various sizes. Our proposed framework able to reproduce the manual assessment that is based on the video recording which is treated as gold standard that exhibits the real-life use case of automated dog behavior analysis.

In order to assess the long-tenn reliability of polymer insulators for distribution power systems, we have developed the accelerated aging test method which can simulate the operation conditions. In this study, 3000 hours aging test for 4 kinds of polymer insulators has been completed by the developed accelerated aging test. After 3000 hours aging test, visual inspection and electrical tests were carried for identifying a change of characteristics. Some specimens showed the surface erosion and the manufacturing defect. In the electrical tests, the wet flashover voltage was significant1y decreased by the accelerated aging test. In comparison with the field-aged polymer insulators, it can be concluded that the developed test method can evaluate the long-tenn reliability within short time and screen the manufacturing defect.

Korean utility has utilized a Periodic Safety Review (PSR) that assesses the cumulative effects of plant aging, modifications, operating experience, technical developments, and site characteristics since 2000. In particular, the assessment and management of plant aging is one of the major areas in PSR. It includes identification of critical Systems, Structures, and Components (SSCs) for aging, assessment of aging effects, and implementation of aging management programs. Since the PSR system was introduced based on the atomic energy acts and related laws, PSRs of eight sets for 12 Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) that have been operating more than 10 years have been completed. PSRs of two sets for 4 NPPs are currently being carried out. The utility has confirmed that domestic NPPs have been operated safely through these PSRs and have implemented the follow-up corrective activities to increase the nuclear safety. In this paper, the status of PSR implementation is discussed and improvement programs to conduct PSR follow-up corrective activities efficiently for NPPs are suggested based on experiences with aging assessments.

In this study accelerated aging test equipment was developed to simulate domestic weather condition for accelerated aging test of polymer housed distribution surge arresters. Polymer arresters were aged for 3,000 hours by this test equipment and chemical and electrical characteristics analysis of surge arresters were conducted after aging test. In addition, performance assessment of outdoor installed arresters for 3 years was conducted to compare aging effect between accelerated aging test and natural aging. Through this experiment it is verified that the capability of the proposed aging test for simulating natural aging and the housing material and disconnector of domestic polymer arresters can be deteriorated by the long time field operation.

인간의 인지-화용언어 능력은 일반적으로 연령이 증가함에 따라 저하된다. 노년층의 인지-화용언어 능력을 평가하는 것은 인지 기능이나 치매 등 관련 질병들에 대한 예측에 도움이 된다. 본 연구에서는 노년층의 인지-화용언어 능력을 평가하기 위한 기존의 도구들을 분석하고, 현재 저자들이 연구 개발 중인 평가영역 및 문항들에 대한 내용타당도(content validity)를 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 17명의 언어치료사 및 임상심리사들이 판단한 척도점수에 근거하여 내용타당도 지수(Content Validity Index, CVI)를 산정하였다. 연구 결과, 주의력, 기억력, 조직화 능력, 추론력, 문제해결력, 집행기능, 화용언어 등 7개 영역 모두 CVI가 .75를 초과하였다. 이에 따라, 현 문항들이 노년층의 인지-화용언어 능력을 평가하기 위한 목적과 적절히 부합하는 내용적 타당성을 지니는 것으로 입증되었다.
