본 연구에서는 1995년부터 2006년까지 12년간 발생한 3,593건의 가스사고사례를 수집하여 데이터베이스를 구축하였으며, 이를 근거로 LPG 기화기사고의 발생건수를 형태 및 원인별로 분석하였다. 분석결과를 살펴보면 사고의 형태로는 파열, 누출, 폭발, 화재 순으로 발생하는 것으로 나타났으며, 기화기 가스사고 중 세부원인을 분석한 결과 가장 많이 발생한 원인으로는 액유출방지장치의 결함에 의한 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 Poisson분석법을 적용하여 향후 5년 이내에 LPG 기화기와 관련된 화재, 폭발, 누출, 파열에 대한 가장 가능성이 높은 발생확률을 예측하였다. 그 결과 사고의 발생횟수가 3번 이하로 발생하는 항목으로는 LPG-Vaporizer-Fire으로 나타났으며, 5번 이하는 LPG-Vaporizer -Products Faults-Check Floater, 10번 이하는 LPG-Vaporizer-Products Faults로 분석되었다. 향후 본 연구에서 구축한 국내사고 Database를 매년 지속적으로 보완 개정을 하면 국내 가스사고 예측에 대한 보다 신뢰성 있는 정보를 제공해 줄 수 있어 효과적인 가스안전관리 대책수립에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

LPG저장설비나 용기에서 유입되는 LPG가 기화기로부터 충분한 열을 공급받지 못해 액체 상태로 기화기 출구를 통해 나가게 될 경우를 대비하여 설치한 액 유출 방지장치가 정상적으로 기화기 출구부를 차단하지 못하면 기화기 후단부에 설치한 계량기등이 LPG의 순간적인 부피팽창으로 인하여 고장나거나 파열하게 된다. 따라서 이와 같은 기화기 관련 사고를 분석하기 위하여 새롭게 개발한 투명기화통을 이용하여 기화기의 성능평가 및 액유출 방지장치를 분석하였다. 이로부터 액 유출 방지장치 플로트 밸브의 적절한 비중값과 자연대류만으로 열전달을 수행하는 LPG 기화기에 적합한 온도조절 범위를 결정하였다.

It is generally acknowledged that the Steel Catenary Riser (SCR) is the most cost-effective riser type for deep-water offshore fields among various risers, including the SCR, flexible riser, and hybrid riser. However, in West Africa, the SCR type may not be suitable for FPSO systems because the large vertical motion of the floater brings about a considerable riser dynamic response. In this paper, an SCR system is designed for the FPSO in the West African field, where the use of a hybrid riser has been preferred. The proposed SCR configuration fulfills the design criteria of the API, such as the strength check and fatigue life. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis is also carried out to improve the certainty in the SCR design of a deep-water FPSO. The parameters affecting the strength and fatigue performance of the SCR are considered.

In this study, the resonant motion of a floating offshore wind system due to negative damping was mitigated by peak shaving algorithms of the NREL ROSCO controller, and the decreased gains of the blade pitch controller by the gain detuning method for the floating system was increased to the gains of onshore baseline controller to improve the power performance of the turbine. To check the performance of the controller, the dynamic responses between the existing gain-detuned pitch controller and the ROSCO controller with peak shaving control for an OC4 floating offshore wind system were compared. As a result of DLC1.1 at near-rated wind speed, when peak shaving was applied, the average generator power decreased by 1.9%, but it was confirmed that the standard deviation was reduced and stability was improved with fast pitch regulation. In addition, since peak shaving reduces the maximum thrust of the rotor, was confirmed that not only are the loads of the blades and tower reduced, but the surge motion of the floater is also reduced, and the tension of the mooring lines is reduced.

A semi-submersible structure has been widely used for offshore drilling and production of oil and gas. The small water plane area makes the structure very sensitive to weight increase in terms of payload and stability. Therefore, it is necessary to lighten the substructure from the early design stage. This study aims at an optimization of hull structure based on a sophisticated yield and buckling strength in accordance with classification rules. An in-house strength assessment system is developed to automate the procedure such as a generation of buckling panels, a collection of required panel information, automatic buckling and yield check and so on. The developed system enables an automatic yield and buckling strength check of all panels composing the hull structure at each iteration of the optimization. Design variables are plate thickness and stiffener section profiles. In order to overcome the difficulty of large number of design variables and the computational burden of FE analysis, various methods are proposed. The steepest descent method is selected as the optimization algorithm for an efficient search. For a reduction of the number of design variables and a direct application to practical design, the stiffener section variable is determined by selecting one from a pre-defined standard library. Plate thickness is also discretized at 0.5t interval. The number of FE analysis is reduced by using equations to analytically estimating the stress changes in gradient calculation and line search steps. As an endeavor to robust optimization, the number of design variables to be simultaneously optimized is divided by grouping the scantling variables by the plane. A sequential optimization is performed group by group. As a verification example, a central column of a semi-submersible structure is optimized and compared with a conventional optimization of all design variables at once.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to analyze and report status of Korean Medicine Ophthalmology patients who did funduscopy examination. Through this, we hope that the development of our diagnosis and treatment. Methods : From June 1, 2010 to May 31, 2019, Based on the electronic medical records of patients who had funduscopy examination at Korean Medicine Ophthalmology, Busan University Korean Medicine Hospital, the gender, age, visiting motives and paths, diagnosis, examination number of years, other eye examinations and treatments method were summarized and analyzed. Results : 463 patients were able to check the electronic medical records. They were 283 females and 180 males. The mean age of the patients was 51.5 years and elderly patients who 50s and 60s were 49.3% of whole patients. The most common motives for Korean Medicine Ophthalmology visitation was 'combination treatment with other department in Korean Medicine Hospital'. Outer eye diseases were 283 cases, inner eye diseases were 198 cases. Dry eye syndrome, asthenopia, visual discomfort, conjunctivitis, and eye discomfort were most common in the outer eye diseases. Cataracts, Vitreous floater, Macular Degeneration, Glaucoma and Ocular Pain were most common in the inner eye disease. The most common parts of outer eye diseases were Conjunctival, lacrimal gland, paralytic, corneal, eyelid and front uveal, scleral disease and then in inner eye diseases parts, Retinal, lens, vitreous, glaucoma, optic nerve, behind uveal, choroid disease were most common. The number of funduscopy examination was ups and downs. Herbal medicine was the most common used. Conclusions : The funduscopy examination is essential for diagnosis and treatment of eye disease. We hope that the use of fundus examination and other ophthalmologic examination will be expanded soon in Korean Medicine Ophthalmology.
