Cooperation between government agencies is important for disaster management, and a thorough and objective cause investigation is important to prevent the recurrence of similar disasters. In South Korea, individual laws are scattered by ministries according to the disaster type, and most are operated as non-permanent organizations that are employed when disasters occur. Although expertise is recognized for each disaster type, each government agency's operation method is different, so when a large-scale disaster involving multiple ministries occurs, there is a limit to the coordination of roles and integrated management between government agencies. In particular, whenever a large-scale complex disaster occurs, problems arise regarding the independence, professionalism, and fairness of the cause investigation. Therefore, to supplement this, reviewing the management methods and systems of disaster cause investigations in advanced countries is necessary. Thus, in this study, the organization status, manpower, organizational structure, and cause investigation work system of NTSB of the United States, JTSB of Japan, and SHK of Sweden are identified to improve the disaster cause investigation system in Korea and are compared and analyzed with Korea's GDCIG. Additionally, issues and problems for the advancement of Korea's disaster cause investigation system are considered and improvements are suggested.

The purpose of this study is to diagnose the level of disaster safety perception (disaster safety importance, accident possibility, personal safety, and regional safety) of local residents, and to analyze the impact of individual and accident cause characteristics. The analysis method used multiple regression analysis, and the main analysis results are as follows. First, disaster safety importance and accident possibility were higher as residents who had experience in safety education and were willing to visit the safety experience center in the province. Second, disaster safety importance was higher as the cause of the accident was the lack of response 119 and police. And accident possibility was higher as the cause of the accident was the lack of prior treatment by the state and local governments. Third, personal safety and regional safety were higher for men, and especially personal safety was lower as residents with children. The results of this study can be used as basic data for establishing regional customized disaster safety policies based on the perception of local residents, who are policy consumers.

This study aims to find the characteristics of damage and states of natural disasters at Gimhae, Gyeongsangnam-do from 1985 to 2004. Using the data of Statistical yearbook of calamities issued by the National Emergency Management Agency and Annual Climatological Report issued by the Korea Meteorological Administration. we have analyzed the cause, elements, and vulnerable regions for natural disasters. Major causes of natural disaster at Gimhae are four, such as a heavy rain, heavy rain typhoon, typhoon, storm snow, and storm. The cause of disaster recorded the most amount of damage is typhoon. The areas of Hallim-myeon, Sangdong-myeon, and Saengnim-myeon are classified the vulnerable region for the natural disasters in Gimhae. Therefore, it seems necessary to build natural disaster mitigation plan each cause of disaster to control water resources and to reduce damage for these areas.

A bioterrorism attack is the deliberate release of viruses, bacteria, or other agents used to cause illness or death in people, animals, or plant. These agents are found in nature, but it is possible that they could be changed to increase their ability to cause disease, make them resistant to current medicines, or to increase their ability to be spread into the environment. Terrorists may use biological agents because these agents can be extremely difficult to detect and do not cause illness for several days. Some bioterrorism agents, like smallpox virus, can spread from person to person, like anthrax, can not. From these agents, we discussed the characteristics of biological agents and national safety regulation on the weapons of mass destruction including bioterrorism.

We reviewed the scientific literature on psychological effects of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosive (CBRNE) disaster, which is one of the biggest threat to modern society. CBRNE disaster has the potential to cause specific physical symptoms and psychological distress in victims ; moreover, various toxic symptoms and carcinogenesis/mutation would be an important issue. Bioterrorism can cause localized outbreaks of infectious disease or pandemic disaster. Somatization as well as posttraumatic stress symptoms and depression are the characteristic psychological symptoms in CBRNE disaster's victims. CBRNE disasters could lead to large-scale public fear and social chaos due to the difficulties involved in verifying the extent of exposure and unfamiliar area to the common people. In the evacuation process, problems associated with adjustment and conflict between victims and residents should be considered.

In this study we propose the improvement countermeasure of disaster prevention by analyzing the damage cause and issue point from examination by Typhoon "maemi" in Kyongsangnamdo region. The main damage cause by Typhoon "maemi" in this region is the rising of water level in river and the overflowing of bank. The basic countermeasure is executing the disaster policy enforcement for the improvement of agriculture infrastructure facilities.

The main cause of natural disaster in Korea is meteorological phenomenon, such as typhoon, heavy rain, storm, rainstorm, heavy snow, hailstorm, overflowing of sea and so on(including thunderstroke, blast, snow damage, freezing and earthquake), and among those disasters, heavy rain takes place most often, and it occupies 80% of total disaster Especially, disaster related to slope collapse (landslide, collapse of retaining wall, burying ect.) takes place every year due to meteorological cause such as localized heavy rain, which is getting stronger. (National Institute for Prevention Disaster, 2002, Meteorological Administration) Accordingly, it is necessary to analyze the features of slope collapse related to natural disaster in Korea, and also to make up counterplan to prevent disaster. This paper will try to analyze potential areas which are susceptible to landslide regarding factors inducing landslide and heavy rain, and to evaluate the potentiality of landslide regarding local particularity of rainfall, furthermore to provide essential information for development of community such as preventing damages from landslide, construction Industry, and effective use of land.

최근 건설업의 대형화, 복잡화됨에 따라 안전사고가 증가하고 있다. 특히, 건설장비에 의한 사고 발생수가 증가하고 있다. 이런 사고의 예방을 위해서는 발생원인을 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 논문은 한국산업안전공단의 건설재해사례를 통해 안전사고 원인을 분석한다. 연구의 범위는 굴삭기 장비로 한정하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 굴삭기 재해 발생 형태는 협착${\cdot}$감김, 낙하${\cdot}$비래, 충돌${\cdot}$접촉 순으로 분석되었따. 2) 재해원인은 작업반경 내에 근로자출입, 주용도 이외의 용도로 사용함, 작업시작 전 저멈불량${\cdot}$ 작업방법불량 순으로 분석되었다. 이 연구결과는 차후 연구의 기초를 정립하고, 안전사고를 줄이는 기대효과를 가질 것이다.

본 논문은 단자대에서 단일원인 및 복합원인에 의한 전기화재위험성을 규명하기 위한 연구이다. 우선적으로 단일원인인 접촉불량에 의한 화재위험성을 측정하기 위해 조임토크변화 및 접촉저항변화에 따른 열적특성을 분석하였다. 또한, 복합원인에 의한 화재위험성을 측정하기 위해 접촉저항변화에 따른 가속트래킹 실험을 실시하여 접촉불량과 트래킹의 화재연관성을 확인하였다. 실험결과 단일원인의 경우 접촉불량상태의 조임토크 및 접촉저항 크기가 증가할수록 열적특성이 뚜렷하게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 접촉저항변화에 따른 열적특성이 조임토크변화에 따른 열적특성보다 그 특성이 더 잘 나타났다. 또한, 복합원인의 경우 단자대 접촉불량과 트래킹은 상호연관성을 가지고 있으며, 두 가지의 복합적인 원인이 서로 작용될 경우 기존의 단일원인의 전기화재 위험성보다 상대적인 위험성이 더욱 높게 나타나는 것으로 도출되었다.

지진안전지대라고 불려왔던 한반도에 최근 지진이 자주 발생하여 전례없는 인적 물적 피해가 발생하였다. 이는 3층 미만의 건축물에 대해서는 내진설계가 되어있지 않고, 일부 전문가 및 단체를 제외하고는 지진에 대한 심각성 및 대피요령에 대해서 숙지하지 못하고 있어 피해가 가중된 것으로 사료된다. 이상과 같이 국민 대부분이 대피요령이나 생존법, 비상물자 등을 인지하지 못하고, 각종 필요한 지진대비 교육이 없는 실정이다. 따라서 지진에 대해서 준비가 전무했던 우리가 이제 지진에 대해 정확한 실체와 원인을 알아보고 준비와 대책을 세워야 할 시점이라 사료된다. 본 연구에서는 빈번하게 발생하는 한반도 지진에 대하여 원인에 대해서 조사하고 우리정부와 지자체, 민간단체, 언론 및 개인의 대처방안에 대해서 체계적으로 정리하고자 한다.
