  • The disaster prevention information system is to comprehensively support information collection, processing, search and supply in disaster counter measuring activities, as well as to manage information mainly related to natural disasters unilaterally. Building an optimal system in adequate consideration of features and demands in terms of disaster prevention is requested. Suitable infrastructure that can support information technology (IT) in various aspects should be established in order to utilize IT effectively in disaster prevention information. In addition. accuracy, reliability and efficiency as a disaster prevention information system should be equipped with. In this study, a basic framework for the establishment of disaster prevention information system is presented.

  • The following improvement plans are suggested in this study to facilitate implementing a pilot project for building a disaster resistant community organized by the National Emergency Management Agency in 2008, and ultimately to expand the project nation-wide. Regarding legislative aspects, legal grounds should be established such as devising a new clause in the Counter Measure for Natural Disaster for assigning a disaster resistant community or city, and devising a tentatively named "Act for Disaster Resistant Community Project" as a local governance regulation. Regarding administrative aspects, a project master plan focused on active participation of the local residents should be designed. Moreover, a certain amount of the project budget should be alloted not only to structural contents but also to non-structural contents. Regarding organizational aspects, an education program for training local disaster prevention leaders should be actively promoted and a local disaster prevention governance system should also be established among official and inofficial local organizations. Furthermore a preemptive consulting system with disaster prevention experts as well as an evaluation system to monitor the project implementation process should be introduced.

  • In the background of rapid urbanization and frequent earthquakes, earthquake disaster prevention planning has become an important topic of current research. Universities are irreplaceable disaster shelter, as they are public institutions with a lot of open space. This article puts forward the concept of "disaster prevention campus". With the refuge behavioral and psychological characteristics of people in the campus when the earthquake happens, it integrated uses GIS spatial analysis technique, takes Shandong Agricultural University as an example, and studies the spatial pattern of earthquake disaster prevention planning in campus from five aspects. The aspects include building distribution, population distribution, analysis of service radius, infrastructure configuration and choice of the optimal refuge path. On the basis of researches above, reform proposals and specific strategies are put forward to build the safe and harmonious disaster prevention campus.

  • In this study, we considered the fire risk assessment of the temple using fire loads and the classification of combustibles. The building construction materials were classified as walls, beam-columns, floorings, ceiling panels and the loading combustibles were classified into fixed materials and movable materials. As a result, we confirmed that the total fire load of the Palsangjeon was $368\;kg/m^2$. The building construction materials accounted for approximately 93.8 percent of the total fire load and the loading combustibles accounted for approximately 6.2 percent.

  • This study aims to contribute to urban policy for more effective disaster prevention, as abnormal natural disasters are becoming more frequent. Up to now, the urban plan for disaster prevention in Korea merely includes basic principles and necessities of measures as an early stage. Furthermore, there are difficulties to make specific programs because the legal system, technical instruments, and financial supports are not sufficient. Therefore, this study figures out problems in the current plan related to urban prevention after analyzing the legal system and practices. Resulting from case studies in developed countries, the study draws significant implications, as follows: enhancing legally binding force; improving the procedures for the programs; establising technical infrastructure. It first suggests a way for the urban policy for disaster prevention by considering our local features comprehensively. It then defines the roles of central, local governemnts and research institutions, and the procedure for urban disaster prevention planning building on the individual roles. This study concludes that an emphasis should be placed on institutional tools necessary to publish technical guideline and establish the system so that urban planners more easily access to disaster risk information.

  • Many hidden aspects of society around the world that has been lurking as risk factors have been ultimately connected to disasters. Such connection did not just stop with massive damages to properties and loss of lives but became a serious social issue. Especially in the case for Korea, because the country has gone through abrupt economic growth which has resulted in rapid urbanization and expansion of economic scale, Korea has been caught in a vicious cycle of experiencing human and social calamities repeatedly. Due to the seriousness of such problem, there's been continued research in various fields for managing disasters, and the domain of knowledge has been expanding with complexity. The following study went beyond the perspectives of disaster prevention study, disaster prevention engineering and social sciences suggested from previous research directions in disaster and disaster prevention, and attempted an alternative research method by approaching from a service design perspective. During the process, the paper looked over the summary on disaster and service design. By applying it on disaster prevention projects, the research sets forth and discusses effective and practical disaster prevention service design. Through specific case studies, the research methodology applied was verified, and the purpose of the study was carried out in the perspective of real world applications different from textbook type discussions. It is expected that through the disaster prevention service design process and platform that were discovered during the research result, defining and understanding disaster prevention service design will be made apparent. Additionally, the research is expected to be used as a basic building block for building a visualized plan for tangible and intangible factors related to disasters before the disaster process through such proposed disaster prevention service design.

  • 최근 산불과 같은 불티로 인한 2차화재의 발생 비율이 높아지고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 이를 불티로 인한 화재 성상을 CFD로 해석하기 위해서는 불티에 가해지는 유체력을 평가하여야 연소모델을 적용할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 풍속에 의한 불티 확산실험의 결과를 토대로 FDS에 적용 할 수 있는 연소모델을 구축하고 위하여 수리 모델 및 수치 해법에 대해 정리하고 이를 FDS 연소모델에 적용을 실시하였다.

  • Coastal cities suffer a great deal of storm and wind damage. The storm and wind characteristics vary between cities. Therefore, a storm and wind damage management system suited for specific characteristics is required for each coastal city. In this study, we analyze the current situation and establish the problem of storm and wind damage management system in regards to urban management, coastal management and disaster management. We also review the storm and wind damage management system for the USA and Japan. We consequently propose a plan to improve the storm and wind damage management system. As a result of the study, in terms of city management, we recommend the compulsory identification of disaster prevention districts, implementation of the integrated coastal city management plan, designation of natural disaster risk mitigation area as disaster prevention district, the division of disaster prevention district into wind damage prevention district, storm damage prevention district, erosion damage prevention district, the building of restrictions at the disaster prevention district by ordinance, etc. In regards to coastal management, we suggest the delegation of authority to delegate coastal erosion management area to the local government, the subdivision of coastal erosion management area into erosion serious area, erosion progress area, erosion concern area, the building restrictions at coastal erosion management area by ordinance, development of erosion prediction chart, etc. In relation to disaster management, we recommend the integration of "countermeasures against natural disasters act" and "disasters and safety management basic act", the local government-led disaster prevention system, the local disaster management network, and the customized local disaster prevention plan, etc.
