한국의 조선업은 짧은 기간에도 불구하고 규모나 질적 면에서 놀라운 성장을 이루어냈다. 하지만 최근 7년간의 산업재해 통계를 분석했을 때, 조선업 평균 사고사망만인율이 1.48로 전업종 0.66대비 2배가 넘고, 재해율 또한 0.93%로 전업종 평균 0.57% 대비 높은 것으로 나타나 세계조선 강국이라는 말을 무색하게 하고 있다. 따라서 2017년 유조선 탱크 내부에서 도장 작업 중 발생한 사고에 대한 분석을 통해 한국 조선업의 현재를 진단하고자 하였다. 사고 요인 도출을 위해 ECFC(Effects and causal factors charting)를 이용하였으며, 점화원 및 가연물에 대한 분석을 위해 실험, 측정 및 CFD를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다.

신규 원전에서 추진중인 외벽침수냉각 방식의 적용이 실패할 경우 노심용융물과 원자로공동 내유체의 상호작용으로 인해 증기폭발이 발생하며, 이는 격납건물 및 관통부 배관을 포함한 각 구조물의 건전성을 위협할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 선행연구 분석결과를 토대로 증기폭발 현상을 모사할 수 있는 개선된 해석기법을 도출하고 알루미나 실험 모사를 통해 타당성을 확인하였다. 또한 동일한 기법을 원자로공동 해석에 적용하여 가상 파손위치에 따른 증기폭발 압력이력을 예측하였으며, 측면파손에 의한 최대압력 값이 하부파손에 의한 것보다 최대 70% 정도 높음을 보였다.

화학공장에서 발생되는 사고 중 대부분은 저장탱크나 운송배관의 손상에 의한 휘발성 유독성물질의 대량 누출이며, 이 경우 누출된 지역의 자연환경과 대기조건에 따른 유동성물질의 확산거동이 안전성평가의 가장 중요한 관심 대상이 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 누출물질에 대한 대기 중 확산을 모사하기 위하여 염소저장탱크에서 염소가 누출될 경우를 예제로 선택하여, 위험성평가와 확산모델(dense gas model)을 이용한 결과해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과를 살펴보면 Fire & Explosion Index를 적용한 결과 포괄적인 위험의 정도는 90.7로서 약간 위험한 정도로 나타났으며, 대기확산 모델(PHAST6.0/ALOHA)은 소프트웨어 운용한 결과, Gas Model에 대한 입력 자료 값에 따라 미치는 결과영향이 다소 차이가 있음을 발견하였으나 각 시나리오별 경향은 상당히 일치함을 나타내고 있다. 따라서 향후 보다 정확한 물성입력자료와 지형인자를 고려한다면 이와 같은 연구방법은 유독성물질 누출에 따른 위험성평가를 보다 효율적으로 수행하는데 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

미립 금속분체에 대한 산업 수요 증가와 함께, 퇴적 금속분의 착화에 의한 화재, 폭발사고가 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 퇴적 금속분체의 화재, 폭발 위험특성을 조사하기 위하여 새로운 실험장치를 개발하였다. 금속분(Mg, Zr, Ta, Ti) 및 PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate)분진을 사용하여, 연소 거동(소염거리, 화염전파속도) 및 화염전파에 미치는 $N_2$ 치환 분위기 농도의 영향 등을 실험적으로 상세히 조사하였다. 실험결과로부터, 퇴적 금속 분체의 화염전파속도는 PMMA보다 크고, 화염전파속도의 퇴적층 두께에 대한 의존성은 작으며, 질소 치환 분위기에서의 Mg의 한계 산소 농도는 3.6-3.7 vol%로 나타났다. 퇴적금속 분체층의 화염전파속도와 소염거리 역수는 높은 상관관계를 가지고 있으며, 이들 연소성 지표에 있어서 상대적인 위험성의 예측이 가능하다.

In this study, a real-scale fuel-cell room of volume 1.36 m³ is constructed to confirm the explosion characteristics of hydrogen-air mixture gas in a hydrogen-powered house. A volume concentration of 40% is applied in the fuel-cell room as the worst-case scenario to examine the most severe accident possible, and two types of doors (made of plastic sheet and wood) are fabricated to observe their effects on the overpressure and impulse. The peak overpressure and impulse based on distance from the ignition source are experimentally observed and assessed. The maximum and minimum overpressures with a plastic-sheet door are about 20 and 6.7 kPa and those with a wooden door are about 46 and 13 kPa at distances of 1 and 5 m from the ignition source, respectively. The ranges of impulses for distances of 1-5 m from the ignition source are about 82-28 Pa·s with a plastic-sheet door and 101-28 Pa·s with a wooden door. The amount of damage to people, buildings, and property due to the peak overpressure and impulse is presented to determine the safe distance; accordingly, the safe distance to prevent harm to humans is about 5 m based on the 'injuries' class, but the structural damage was not serious.

The behaviors of flame propagation and quenching in a pipe were investigated to make a design criteria of flame arrester. The effects of sealing condition of pipe end, pipe diameter and lengh were studied, and also the effects of thickness of ceramic honycomb monolith on the quenching ability were discussed. Experimental results showed that the flame velocity in case of closed pipe was increased about twenty times faster than that of opened and the sealing coditions of pipe end and length showed significant effects on it. The quenching ability of ceramic honycomb monolith was Increased with thickness and coincided well with Palmer's equation.

The advancement of realistic visual effects technology provides increasingly immersive experiences and consumer satisfaction with content. The explosion and destruction effects in live-action films and animations are some of the most frequently used visual effects, but they are relatively difficult to execute, so it is challenging to make them look realistic. This study tested a method of effectively realizing computer-generated explosions and destruction. Experiments for this study are as follows: first, the interlink according to density accumulation of the fluid; second, the interlink according to the temperature accumulation of the fluid; and third, the interlink according to the distance between the fluid and the involved objects. This study was conducted to identify an optimal solution for producing computer-generated explosions and destruction.

The offshore installation units may be subjected to various accidental loads such as collision from supply vessels, impact from dropped objects, blast load from gas explosion and thermal load from fire. This paper deals with the design and strength evaluation method of the stiffened plate structures in response to a blast load caused by a gas explosion accident. It is a comprehensive review of various items used in actual project such as the size and type of the explosive loads, general design procedure/concept and analysis method. The structural analyses using simple analysis methods based on SDOF model and nonlinear finite element analysis are applied to the particular FPSO project. Also validation studies on the design guidance given by simple analysis method based on SDOF model have also considered several items such as backpressure effects, material behavior and duration time of the overpressure. A good correlation between the prediction made by simple analysis method based on SDOF model and nonlinear finite element analysis can be generally obtained up to the elastic limit.

Today, buildings are exposed to the effects such as explosion and impact loads. Usually, explosion and impact loads that act on the buildings such as nuclear power plants, airports, defense industry and military facilities, can occur occasionally on the normal buildings because of some reasons like drop weight impacts, natural gas system explosions, and terrorist attacks. Therefore, it has become important to examine the behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) structures under impact loading. Development of computational mechanics has facilitated the modeling of such load conditions. In this study, three kinds of RC walls that have different geometric forms (square, ellipse, and circle) and used in guardhouses with same usage area were modeled with Abaqus finite element software. The three configurations were subjected to the same impact energy to determine the geometric form that gives the best behavior under the impact loading. As a result of the analyses, the transverse impact forces and failure modes of RC walls under impact loading were obtained. Circular formed (CF) reinforced concrete wall which has same impact resistance in each direction had more advantages. Nonetheless, in the case of the impact loading occurring in the major axis direction of the ellipse (EF-1), the elliptical formed reinforced concrete wall has higher impact resistance.

As the treatments of many kinds of explosive objects increase recently, it is in the trend that explosion accidents increase. Thus, many studies on HPFRCC (High-performance Fiber-reinforced Cement Composites) whose ductility is enhanced are being conducted actively in order to minimize the damages from explosion accidents. However, HPFRCC, the self-shrinkage of HPFRCC is on the rise as a problem since it becomes ultra-high strengthened by using low W/B. Thus, in this study, it is intended to evaluate the capacity for reducing the self-shrinkage of HPFRCC depending on some changes of ERCO(Emulsified Refined Cooking Oil) replacement ratio and the fiber replacement ratio between some short steel fibers (SS) and some long organic fibers (OL). As a result, it was found that some excellent effects are exerted since the self-shrinkage was reduced a lot as the ERCO replacement ratio increases and the fiber replacement ratio of SS rather than OL increases.
