  • This study wants to provide basic data on effective escape safety plans when residents of apartment complex use residential convenience facilities. The findings of the analysis are as follows. First, when this study applied the actual number of users (No=54) of those facilities, the existence of elevator for escape reduced the escape time by 189.0 seconds. Second, when the number of users was calculated on the standard of the number of people who can be accommodated for performance based design (No=316), the existence of the elevator for escape reduced the escape time by 173.5 seconds. Finally, when the number of users was calculated on the standard of installing fire-fighting facilities (No=122), the existence of the elevator for escape reduced the escape time by 159.2 seconds. As a result, it was found that elevator for escape reduces the escape time from fire. Accordingly, it is necessary to revise the construction law to make it obligatory for residential convenience facilities to be equipped with elevator for escape. Currently, apartment buildings lower than 30 stories have either elevator for passengers or elevator for escape. Thus, in future studies, it is necessary to compare escape times in fire depending on the kinds of elevator, and identify the usefulness of elevator for escape.

  • 피난안전성의 정량적인 평가를 위해 고려되는 정량적요소로는 피난거리와 피난장해를 대표적으로 들 수 있으며, 선행 연구에서 이론적인 증명과 단순모델 및 실재평면모델을 이용하여 일반성과 적용성에 대하여 검토되었다. 그러나 보다 현실적인 평가수법의 개발을 위해서는 피난경로상에 산재해 있는 다양한 피난장해에 대한 종합적인 검토가 가능해야 하며, 이를 위해서는 각 피난장해와 피난자의 피난조건이 피난안전성에 미치는 영향력에 대한 정량화가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 피난장해와 피난자의 피난조건에 대한 이론적 검토를 통하여 피난경로상에 예상되는 다양한 피난장해의 정량화 함수를 도출하고, 선행연구에서 제시된 피난안전성 평가수법에 대입하고, 단순모델을 이용하여 피난자의 피난조건과 피난장해를 동시에 고려한 평가법의 적용성과 타당성에 대한 검토를 행하는 것으로, 보다 현실적인 피난안전성에 대한 정량적인 평가수법개발로의 연구적 발전을 도모한다.

  • In this study, for the purpose of reducing the catch of small giant octopus in a net pot, an escape experiment of octopus was performed on five types of escape rings of different sizes. As a result of the experiment, the smallest giant octopus with a weight of 406 g was found to escape from an escape ring with a diameter of 30 mm or larger, and 592 g octopus, a weight similar to the octopus of the current minimum landing weight (600 g), escaped from an escape ring with a diameter of larger than 40 mm. An individual weight with 406 g becomes 39 mm when converted from a diameter of 25 mm circular escape vent; that is, the circumference to the inner diameter of the mesh. It can be inferred that the converted mesh size of 39 mm cannot escape. Logistic regression analysis was performed using a generalized linear model (GLM) to investigate the correlation between the ratio of escape ring size/Mantle diameter (R/MD) and the escape rate. As a result, it was found that there was a significant correlation between the R/MD ratio and the escape rate and that the higher the R/MD ratio, the greater the escape rate. As a result of logistic regression analysis, the R/MD value was denoted 0.520 with the 50% escape rate. In addition, it can be estimated to be about 50 mm when converted to the mesh size. Therefore, in this study, the diameter of the escape ring and the size of the escape possible of the octopus were experimentally considered. It was found that there was a significant correlation.

  • When a fire takes place, the escape tunnel which could prevent passengers and the crew from disasters would be most important facility among railway tunnel facilities for prevention of disaster. A shorter space between the escape tunnels is much better for safety because of short escape time. The establishment of short space escape tunnels(driftways) in the single track parallel tunnel is much easier. The establishment of long space escape tunnels(inclined shafts, vertical shafts) in the double track is much more advantageous economically. We, therefore, compared the movement time of smog originated from fire with the escape time of the crew and passengers for setting up the best space between the escape tunnels in the double track tunnel. We could calculate the best space between the escape tunnels in the double track tunnel properly by computer simulation.

  • In apartment buildings, casualties, especially fatalities have occurred in balcony areas in fires if residents fail to escape to the main entrance. Potential consequences of a particular infrequent event should be considered. In attempting to design apartment buildings for fire safety, alternative escape methods such as vertical penetration could be considered. The purpose of this study is to investigate present building regulations regarding apartment buildings and examine pros and cons of the current escape method and alternative escape methods. Focus group interview was conducted to discuss problems of fire escape methods. In addition, questionnaires were distributed to field professionals working in architecture, construction and related industries. Among 500 questionnaires distributed, 192 questionnaires were collected. Usable 162 questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS 15. Regarding alternative fire escape methods, several concerns were mentioned. Safety, privacy, security, effectiveness of escape, water proof problems were raised. Based on the opinions, vertical penetration between apartment unit appeared more safe, secure, effective than horizontal penetration. However, both methods have its own pros and cons under specific contexts. Alternative escape methods need be considered for a selective options for residents in case of fire.

  • This study represents a fundamental research for a passenger-ship escape guidance system that is a ship-borne agent, and it is for the support of escape decision-making by providing accurate maritime safety information in real time. We conducted a passenger escaping experiment on a training ship, SAEYUDAL, using the situation-aware escape guidance system, which has been developed for on-board application based on products for buildings. It is shown that the system contributes to the shortening of the escape duration and the dispersion of the escaping persons by generating and guiding the safe escape routes which dangerous areas are considered. From the experiment on ship's heeling condition, it is revealed that the heeling angle is linearly related to the escape duration. Therefore, this study shows that the shortening of the escape duration enables a safe and rapid mustering that is the most important process under emergency and appropriate incident responses to minimize loss of lives.

  • The efficiencies of single escape and double escape peaks were calculated by using Monte Carlo method and compared with measured efficiencies. The efficiency was obtained from the area ratio of escape peak to full energy absorption peak and the full energy absorption peak efficiency. For the escape peak interfered with other $\gamma-ray$ peaks, the net area was obtained by area correction. The GEANT code developed in CERN was used for the Monte Carlo calculation. The calculated efficiencies of the escape peaks agreed with the measurement within $12\%$.

  • Crowd escape event detection has become one of the hottest problems in intelligent surveillance filed. When the 'escape event' occurs, pedestrians will escape in a disordered way with different velocities and directions. Based on these characteristics, this paper proposes a Direction-Collectiveness Model to detect escape event in crowd scenes. First, we extract a set of trajectories from video sequences by using generalized Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi key point tracker (gKLT). Second, a Direction-Collectiveness Model is built based on the randomness of velocity and orientation calculated from the trajectories to express the movement of the crowd. This model can describe the movement of the crowd adequately. To obtain a generalized crowd escape event detector, we adopt an adaptive threshold according to the Direction-Collectiveness index. Experiments conducted on two widely used datasets demonstrate that the proposed model can detect the escape events more effectively from dense crowd.

  • Under the Korean Enforcement Decree of the Building Act, all high story apartment houses more than 5 stories high are mandated to install a fire evacuation system to ensure safe evacuation from fire accidents and providing quick and easy bidirectional escape route when main entrance is blocked by flame or toxic smoke. However, the current fire evacuation system shows a lack of understanding from residents and thus is widely ignored for having insufficient safety functions, especially vis-à-vis fire emergencies. Studies have found that an alternative evacuation method, the escapable fire evacuation system, has been analyzed for safety evaluation compared with the conventional passive fire escape system and can bring efficient and safer solutions, providing high rise residents escape from fire accidents. Evaluation for safety evacuation has been performed by the Fire Dynamics Simulation and applying Pathfinder simulation. This resulted in providing appropriate escape routes within the safety escape time and allowed for people in high rise building fires to get to safety.

  • In order to design the optimal escape vent for the coon strip shrimp pot, the tank experiments were conducted with the model pot of five different slit height and slit width, respectively. The optimal height and width of escape vent were determined to 20mm and 40mm by tank experiments, respectively. These were determined by the 50% selection carapace length which was denoted to 25mm in selectivity curve. The escape experiments were conducted to determine a number of escape vent with the original shrimp pot to be set the designed escape vent from 2 vents to 10 vents increasing at intervals of 2 vents in tank. The optimal number of escape vents denoted 8 vents. Therefore, to apply the escape vent in commercial shrimp pot will be efficient to reduce small size shrimps to catch.
