In this paper, to make a base of the fire safety assessment about ship's fire protection design and Classification Society rule, statistical informations and modeling techniques for the fire safety engineering are investigated and probabilistic safety assessment methods in the structural reliability engineering are introduced. FSEM(Fire Safety Evaluation Module) developed in this paper calculates the probability of fatality, which can be used as an index of fire safety. FSEM is used to calculate the probability of fatality of the evacuees in a small room installed according to the rules for fire-proof. Sensitivity analysis is executed to investigate FSEM's applicability to ship. From results, the necessity of new criterion for ship's fire safety design, the need to study the human behavior in the evacuation from fire, and the development of new fire progress model considering special situations in ships are acknowledged.

Purpose: The called Aero System is important to find the well detected place in the livingroom or bedroom so, it needs to the confirmation through the Fire Dynamics Simulation Method: A fire simulation of a residential space of 59 m² was performed, and in order to find the point where the fire environment was exposed quickly, measuring points were installed at 0.6 m and 1.5 m in height for each bedroom and living room, and the point where the fire was quickly detected was confirmed. Result: It was confirmed that the temperature and carbon monoxide sensor set at a point of 1.5 m was quickly detected at the reference value. Conclusion: The Fire detection would be relatively quick if the product in which the fire extinguishing module and the AQI module were separated was installed on the wall.

Fire is a continuous threat to FPSO topside modules as large amounts of oil and gas are passing through the modules. As a conventional measure to mitigate structural failure under fire, passive fire protection (PFP) coatings are widely used on main structural members. However, an excessive use of PFP coatings can cause considerable cost for material purchase, installation, inspection and maintenance. Long installation time can be a risk since the work should be done nearly at the last fabrication stage. Thus, the minimal use of PFP can be beneficial to the reduction of construction cost and the avoidance of schedule delay. This paper presents a few case studies on how different applications of PFP have influence on collapse time of a FPSO module structure. A series of heat analysis and thermal elasto-plastic FE analysis are performed for different PFP coatings and the resultant collapse time and the amount of PFP coatings are compared with each other.

In this paper, we design two types of the sensor module to measure the partial discharge causing failures and electric fires for power incoming/distributer. And evaluate the performance thereof. Analyze the correlation of the phase current and the partial discharge and overheating. Proposes to apply the stability index by utilizing the analyzed information and use in order to prevent the failure or electrical fire of the power incoming/distributer.

The conventional remote fire image monitoring system has insufficient ability to check the video information of the fire scene in real time, so it was difficult to grasp the actual situation in case of fire and cope with it rapidly. In this paper, we propose a design of real­time fire image monitoring system using new RTSP module, which is composed of a server with RTSP function and client for transmitting and receiving images using wi­fi from a camera attached to such a robot system. We implemented the proposed remote fire monitoring system capable of receiving live video transmitted from a camera and confirmed, by field test, that the fire video image was normally received.

This study analyzed ignition probability about Lithium-polymer batteries of what variously were being produced wearable devices recently. The study analyzed ignition probability by PCM(Protection Circuit Module) operating state and overcharged, over-discharged, exposed to high temperatures of Lithium polymer batteries, analyzing wearable devices on the market. Then it classified experimental results to implement analysis comparison about weight, X-ray imaging, battery decomposition. With these experiments, the study analyzed combustion-possibility and fire patterns. These statistics will be used to measure and verify the cause of a fire when identify wearable devices using Lithium-polymer batteries.

The Chemical Control Act of 2015 was enhanced to ensure the safe management of hazardous chemicals. In particular, there have been substantial changes in the standards for the installation and management of handling facilities for manufacturing and storing hazardous chemicals. However, some standards for handling facilities are difficult to implement due to a lack of physical space or because of safety accidents during facility improvements. Therefore, the Safety assessment system (SAS) has been operating for such facilities since 2018. This study developed a leakage trajectory evaluation module that can easily evaluate the outside of a dike for safety evaluation. We analyzed two case studies on a dike for hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid storage tanks with this module and suggest a reasonable plan for the facility. We believe that it will be possible to more easily submit SAS reports at chemical plants by using this evaluation module. This study is expected to contribute to the improvement of the safety design of hazardous chemical handling facilities.

A Fire Safety Evaluation Module(FSEM), which quantitatively evaluates the risk of evacuees when fire occurs in buildings or ships, is presented in this paper. The developed FSEM can be applied to multi-room structure. Basic input data for the FSEM are prepared by fire model and evacuation model. CFAST which is one of the existing fire models is used as fire model and MonteDEM evacuation model was developed for evacuation model, respectively. MonteDEM evacuation model makes use of distinct element method and Monte-Carlo simulation, and it can also take into consideration ground inclination by ship motions in order to simulate the real situation of evacuation. Some typical situations are modelled for illustrative examples and quantitative assessment of evacuee's risk under fire accident is carried out.
