본 연구에서는 소방시설의 성능위주의설계를 수행하기 위하여 ETA(Event Tree Analysis) 기법을 적용하는 방안을 고찰하였다. ETA기법에서는 화재시나리오를 사건(Event)의 인과관계로 된 각 단계의 사건으로 구성한다. 본 연구에서는 ETA에서 구성된 시나리오에 따른 심각도를 화재시뮬레이션과 피난 시뮬레이션을 통한 수행으로 사망자수를 도출하는 방안을 적용하였고, 각 시나리오의 빈도(확률)은 FTA(Fault Tree Analysis) 기법을 적용하여 분기 확률을 도출하도록 하였다. ETA에서 도출한 사망자수와 빈도를 이용하여 F-N 커브를 작성하여 위험도를 평가하여 소방설계의 보완 및 대책을 수립하는 방안을 제시하였다.

This paper presents improvement of the reception noise suppression method during formation flights of aircraft. Since aircraft communication equipment is very important for flight mission and safety to perform the functions of internal/external communications, it is required to implement noise-free, clean communication quality, and transmitting/receiving functions. Therefore, the FTA (Fault Tree Analysis) analysis and failure search were performed on the reception noise, and the internal noise of the intercom that affected the reception noise and the none-transmition phenomenon was identified. We changed the multiple grounds of the intercom to a single ground and applied an improved method of filtering the DC Offset voltage. As a result, the voice quality of the communication system of the aircraft was improved through the reduction of the reception noise during formation flights, and it was verified by ground and flight tests.

In this paper, we developed and tested a program for prediction flash fire in a combat system. Purposes of the program are flash fire prediction of combat system for analysis vulnerability and survivability, and visualization for fire-related information. To do this, we defined critical components of the combat system which has probabilities of flash fire occurrence, and proposed Flash Fire Probability Tree which is based on Fault Tree Analysis(FTA). The program visualizes positions of critical components in combat system, positions of penetrated components, selected Flash Fire Probability Tree, temperature profile, and tables for properties of matters.

The quantitative evaluation method of the safety management cost was suggested to prevent a gas accident as a major industrial accident. In a gas governor station, process risk assessments such as the fault tree analysis(FTA) and the consequence analysis were performed. Based on process risk assessments, potential accident costs were estimated and the cost-benefit analysis(CBA) was performed. From the cost-benefit analysis for five classification items of safety management cost, the order of the cost/benefit ratio was estimated.

A systematic methodology to determine safety requirements for railway signalling system and safety requirement allocation into system are presented. THR concept is used for as an interface between Risk Analysis to be performed by railway operator and System Design Analysis by the supplier. This approach is based on Signalling Safety Standard EN50129 by CENELEC.

This study shows the developing process of the risk assessment models for railway casualty accidents. To evaluate the risks of these accidents, the hazardous events and the hazardous factors were identified by the review of the accident history and engineering interpretation of the accident behavior. The frequency of each hazardous event was evaluated from the historical accident data and structured expert judgments by using the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) technique. In addition, to assess the severity of each hazardous event, the ETA (Event Tree Analysis) technique and other safety techniques were applied. The risk assessment models developed can be effectively utilized in defining the risk reduction measures in connection with the option analysis.

Although gangform has good workability due to the integration of outer wall forms and working platforms, 22 workers were died from 21 gangform related accidents during 2012 to 2016. Quantitative risk assessment is required for evident based prevention measure selection. In this study, based on 52 accident data from 2004 to the first half of 2019, FTA is conducted for probabilities of direct causes and their contribution to accidents. Three stages are considered; gangform installation, dismantling and lifting, and using. The effectiveness of countermeasures is evaluated through minimum cut set, RAW and RRW. Complete assembly of gangform on the ground level, detailed planning, and fall prevention device are suggested as prevention measures for installation, dismantling and lifting, and using stages, respectively.

Hazard evaluation and FTA are performed as the first and the second step of QRA for a LNG storage tank. Hazards are identified using HAZOP. Each segment of the system is examined, and we list all possible deviations from normal operating conditions and how they might occur. The consequences on the process are assessed, and the means available to detect and correct the deviations are reviewed. The FTA is carried out to analyse the hazards identified from the HAZOP study. A top event is selected to be release of LNG. Then all combinations of individual failures that can lead to the hazardous event are shown in the logical format of the fault tree system.

본 논문에서는 동일한 설계조건을 갖는 벅 컨버터와 벅-부스트 컨버터를 신뢰성의 측면에서 비교한다. 신뢰성 분석의 대표적인 지표의 고장률과 평균 고장 시간(Mean time between failure, MTBF)을 도출하기 위해 고장나무 분석(Fault-tree analysis, FTA)을 사용한다. FTA는 컨버터의 동작 특성을 고려하여 고장의 원인과 영향을 나타내는 방법으로 컨버터를 구성하는 부품의 고장률은 MIL-HDBK-217F의 값을 사용한다. FTA를 통해 벅 컨버터의 고장률과 벅-부스트 컨버터의 고장률을 도출하고 고장률 차이의 원인을 분석하며 두 컨버터의 동작 온도별 고장률을 그래프로 나타내어 시각화한다.

For decreasing an unexpected shutdown of Nuclear Power Plants, Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power co.(KHNP) has developed Single Point Vulnerability(SPV) of NPPs since 2008. SPV is the equipment that cause reactor shutdown & turbine trip or more than 50% power rundown due to its malfunction. Newly built Nuclear Power Plants need to develop the SPV list, so performed the job which analyse equipment failure effect for SPV selection for 1 year. To develop this, Failure Mode Effect Analysis(FMEA) and Fault Tree Analysis(FTA) methods are used. As results of this analysis, about 900 equipment are selected as SPV. Thereafter those are going to be applied to Nuclear Power Plants to enhance equipment reliability.
