To achieve the safety and reliability, RAMS activity for a railway signal system of Near Surface Transit is studied. In this paper, preliminary hazard analysis in RAMS activities is studied for the railway signal system of Near Surface Transit. Preliminary hazard analysis is done through automatic train protection, automatic train operation and automatic train supervision. The hazards are defined, then causes and consequence for each hazard are defined. The total 75 preliminary hazards are classified. For high severity hazards are changed to acceptable level by upgrading of system requirement specification.

The safety critical systems in nuclear power plants should be designed to have a high level of fault tolerant capability because those systems are used for protection or mitigation of the postulated accidents of nuclear reactor. Due to increasing of the system complexity of the digital based system in nuclear fields, the reliability of the digital based systems without an auto-test or a self-diagnostic feature is generally lower than those of analog system. To overcome this problem, additional redundant architectures in each redundant channel and self-diagnostic features are commonly integrated into the digital safety systems. The self diagnostic function is a key factor for increasing fault tolerant capabilities in the digital based safety system. This paper presents an availability and safety evaluation model to analyze the effect to the system's fault tolerant capabilities depending on self-diagnostic features when the loss or erroneous behaviors of self-diagnostic function are expected to occur. The analysis result of the proposed model on the several modules of a safety platform shows that the improvement effect on unavailability of each module has generally become smaller than the result of usage of conventional models and the unavailability itself has changed significantly depending on the characteristics of failures or errors of self-diagnostic function.

점토질의 중심코어부에 차수 역할을 의존하는 형식의 제체에 대한 안정성 검토에 자주 적용되는 B차원 전기비저항 탐사자료의 해석 시, 제체의 심벽 구조와 수위에 따른 왜곡 양상을 모델링을 통해 검증하였다. 3차원 구조인 제체의 해석을 주로 2차원으로 수행하는 과정에서 다양한 왜곡효과가 나타났다. 제체의 재료가 수평적으로 균질한 상태에서 수위와 연관지어 분석한 결과, 양안부보다는 제체 중앙부가 비저항 단면에서 수위선을 비교적 정확히 나타내며, 양안에 존재하는 지반 등 3차원 효과로 인해 양안부로 다가가면 수위선이 깊어지는 반응을 보였다. 또한 제체의 가장 외부구조인 채움재부의 경사가 일정할 때, 코어부의 경사가 급할수록 실제 수위와 비슷한 효과를 보였다. 코어부의 경사가 비슷할 때는, 외부 채움재부의 경사가 완만할수록 실제 수위와 비슷한 효과를 보였으며, 양안에서의 3차원 효과도 덜 나타났다. 채움재부의 경사가 급하면 2차원 역산 결과, 실제수위보다 더 깊은 위치에서 수위와 관련된 저비저항대를 지시하였으며, 양안에서의 3차원 효과가 크게 나타났다.

우주환경에서 운용되는 위성은 상호 유기적으로 연결된 다양한 전자장비에서 방출하는 전도성/복사성 에너지 결합에 의해 다양한 잡음 신호를 발생하게 되는데, 이러한 잡음은 탑재체를 포함한 위성 시스템과 발사체의 전자기적인 영향에 의하여 주요 기능에 중대한 결함을 유발시킬 수 있다. 이에 위성 시스템은 개발 단계에서부터 전자파환경에 대한 영향을 최소화하기 위한 시스템 설계 검증이 요구된다. 위성 시스템에서 검증하여야 하는 전자파 환경 요소는 위성으로부터 방출되는 전도성/복사성 잡음과 이러한 잡음 환경에서 위성의 정상운용을 검증하는 감응성 잡음이 있다. 통신해양기상위성 시스템의 전자파 호환성 설계 검증은 PSR의 출력을 각 유닛에 분배하는 과정에서 전원선에서 방출하는 전도성 방출특성을 측정하여 시스템에서 통제하는 전자파 규격에 적합한지를 검증하고, 이러한 방출 레벨로부터 6 dB 시스템 안전성마진을 고려한 레벨의 전도성 잡음을 전원선에 인가하여 시스템의 성능을 검증하는 것이다. 아울러, 각 유닛의 전자파 복사 특성을 종합하여 시스템 수준의 복사성 잡음 수준을 예측하고 발사체 요구 규격과의 적합성을 분석하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 통신해양기상위성의 전자파 환경시험 결과를 토대로 시스템 수준의 전자파 호환 특성 및 발사체와의 적합성 분석 결과를 제시하였으며, 잡음요소 분석 결과는 FM EMC 시험에 반영될 것이다.

본 논문에서는 ASM을 이용하여 전기 이륜차 장치에 대한 모델기반 설계 기법을 제시하였다. 실제, 전기 이륜차의 시제품 제작 이전에 전기 이륜차의 최적화와 동력을 예측하기 위해서는 신뢰성을 갖는 해석이 필요하다. 과거의 전기 이륜차 연구는 미시적 관점보다는 거시적 관점에서 실시되었다. 그러나, 본 연구에서는 전기 이륜차 핵심 부품에 대한 상세 해석을 실시하였다. 본 논문에서는 이론과 실험해석의 에러 비율이 2.3%에 달하는 양호한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이 같은 상세 해석을 통하여, 전기 이륜차의 해석 정확도를 향상시키고 설계인자 해석이 가능하게 되었다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 전기 이륜차가 직면하고 있는 Fail safety에 대한 효과적 방법을 제시하였다.

Background: Occupational risk management is known as a catalyst in generating superior returns for all stakeholders on a sustainable basis. A number of companies in Ghana implemented health and safety measures adopted from international companies to ensure the safety of their employees. However, there exist great threats to employees' safety in these companies. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the level of compliance of Occupational Health and Safety management systems and standards set by international and local legislation in power producing companies in Ghana. Methods: The methodology is conducted by administering questionnaires and in-depth interviews as measuring instruments. A random sampling technique was applied to 60 respondents; only 50 respondents returned their responses. The questionnaire was developed from a literature review and contained questions and items relevant to the initial research problem. A factor analysis was also carried out to investigate the influence of some variables on safety in general. Results: Results showed that the significant factors that influence the safety of employees at the hydroelectric power plant stations are: lack of training and supervision, non-observance of safe work procedures, lack of management commitment, and lack of periodical check on machine operations. The study pointed out the safety loopholes and therefore helped improve the health and safety measures of employees in the selected company by providing effective recommendations. Conclusion: The implementation of the proposed recommendations in this paper, would lead to the prevention of work-related injuries and illnesses of employees as well as property damage and incidents in hydroelectric power plants. The recommendations may equally be considered as benchmark for the Safety and Health Management System with international standards.

철도 운전사고의 대부분을 차지하는 철도건널목에 대한 기존의 사고예측식은 국외의 경우 Peabody Dimmick Formula, New Hampshire Index, National Cooperative Highway Research Program(NCHRP) report 50, U.S. Department of Transportation(DOT) 사고예측식 등을 이용하고 있었으며, 국내의 경우, U.S. DOT 사고예측식의 입력변수를 다변량 분석법을 이용하여 국내에 맞게 조정한 사고예측식을 이용하고 있다. 그러나 위에서 제시한 철도건널목 사고예측식은 철도건널목에서 발생하는 사고를 단순히 철도통행량, 도로통행량, 선로수, 도로수 등의 요인에 국한하여 분석한 것이고, 사고예측식 자체가 철도건널목에만 국한된다는 맹점을 안고 있어서 철도건널목장치라든지 철도건널목을 이용하는 사람들의 성향 등, 여러 인자를 고려한 철도건널목에서의 안전성분석 및 대책을 제시할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 철도건널목장치를 포함하여 다른 시스템에도 범용적으로 적용할 수 있고, 제한된 변수에만 국한하지 않아 여러 사항을 고려할 수 있는 안전성분석 절차를 제시하였는데 이 안전성 분석 절차를 철도건널목에 적용함으로써 시스템의 위험요인을 분석하고, 이에 대한 원인 및 결과, 손실을 도출한 후 대책을 제시할 수 있었다.

An elevator system, which is essential equipment for vertical movement of an object, as a property of building, has been driven by various expenditures and purposes. Since developing electrical control technology, control system are highly developed. The elevator system has expanded widely, but a data accuracy acquisition technique and safety predict technique for securing system safety is still at a basic level. So, objective verification for elevator confidence condition requires an absolute accuracy measurement technique. Therefore, this study is executed in order to acquire a method of depending on sense of a manager with simple numeric measurement data, and to construct a logical, analytical foresight system for more efficient elevator management system. As an artificial intelligence for diagnosis, the fuzzy inference algorithm is used for foreseeing the system in this thesis, because the fuzzy algorithm is the most useful method for resolving subjective ideas and a vague judgment of humans. The fuzzy inference algorithm is developed for each sensor signal(i.e. vibration, velocity, current).

When an event is occurred in a nuclear power plant (NPP), the NPP operator reports it referred by the regulation on reporting and public announcement of accidents and incidents. Some of the events do not need to be reported because they are not included in the reporting criteria of the regulation. However, it is necessary that they should be managed effectively because the accident can be occurred by the recurrence of a lot of them as precursors. Among the events not included in the reporting criteria of the regulation, near miss is the event that is not occurred but can generate a significant consequence. This can provide the cause of the event which does not result an accident. So, it is able to offer insightful knowledges to prevent higher level events about the function and process of NPP. The objective of this study is to analyze the issues of near miss events, prepare the defence against the risk, and improve the management process of NPP. To achieve it, this study performed to analyze the management structure and status of near miss events as well as the accident reporting system of the domestic and foreign regulation bodies. In case of Korea, the status was analyzed by quantitative data, licensee event reports and procedures. Based on these, we could find the causes that near miss events were not managed effectively. Then, systematic alternatives that reflected the perspective of man, technology and organization were drawn.
