The basis of modem risk-based safety management is to focus on what might happen and ensure it is designed out of the system by robust hazard identification and risk analysis. However, in the real world things go wrong and it is essential to be prepared for the worst so that the response can minimise harm and loss of property and damage to the environment. Whilst some hazard mitigation measures are aimed at preventing incidents, others are venting escalation. The results of the tests concluded that the most effective means by the control room, both with and without, local station staff assistance using directive public address announcements and CCTV surveillance.

To meet the growing needs from a variety of stakeholders, the development of modern systems is getting more complex and thus, the systems failure in the actual operations can potentially become more serious. This is why several international or military standards on systems safety have been published. In spite of the importance of meeting those standards such as IEC 61508 and ISO 26262 in the systems development, the associated practical methods seem deficient since those standards do not provide them. The objective of this paper is to present a method to identify potential hazards in fulfilling the requirements of the safety standards. In particular, the approach taken here is based on applying the functional analysis that covers several levels of the system under development. Note, however, that in the most of the conventional methods for hazards identification, the analysis has been focused on the failure at or underneath the component level of the system. The hazards identification method in this paper would cover the level up to the system by utilizing the functions-oriented approach. The case study of the safety enhancement for locomotive cabs is also discussed.

현재까지 구조건전성 모니터링과 관련하여 제안된 대부분의 손상인식기법은 모달영역응답을 이용하고 있으나, 모달영역응답은 별도의 후처리가 필요하며 추출과정에서 오차를 포함하게 되므로 손상인식의 정확성을 저하시키는 요인이 되어왔다. 본 논문에서는 이동하중응답을 직접 이용하는 손상인식기법의 적용성을 실내 실험을 통하여 검증하였다. 실험은 강재로 만든 보에 이동하중을 재하시켜 수행하였으며, 보의 응답은 변위계를 이용하여 측정하였다. 이동하중은 쇠구슬과 활강장치를 이용하여 모사하였으며, 주기성과 비주기성 이동하중으로 구분하여 재하하였다. 계측된 응답을 이용한 손상인식 결과, 이동하중을 이용한 손상인식기법은 구조물의 손상을 성공적으로 탐지하는 것으로 나타났다.

울릉도는 강도가 약한 화산암과 강도는 높으나 수직절리가 잘 발달하는 조면암질암으로 구성되어 있으며, 이러한 지질학적 특성으로 인해 낙석이 빈번하게 발생하고 있어 일주도로의 이용에 큰 위험요소로 작용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 낙석 재해위험도가 높은 울릉도 북동부의 약 3 km 구간을 대상으로 3종류의 낙석재해 위험도 평가법을 이용하여 낙석재해 위험도 평가를 수행하고 재해도를 작성하였다. 사용된 평가표는 일본 도로방재 총점검에서 적용된 낙석위험도 조사표, 일본 고속도로조사회의 낙석위험도 평가표, 그리고 미국연방도로국의 RHRS (Rockfall Hazard Rating System)이다. 도로사면의 지형 지질학적 조건을 고려하여 27개 구간을 설정하여 평가한 결과, 20개 사면(약 74%)에서 낙석재해 위험도가 높음과 보통으로 평가되었다. 이러한 조사결과를 바탕으로 낙석재해 위험도를 작성하였다.

In this paper a methodology of identifying individual pipes according to the internal and external characteristics of pipe is developed, and the methodology is applied to a case study water distribution pipe break database. Using the newly defined individual pipes the hazard rates of the cast iron 6 inch pipes are modeled by implementing the proportional hazards modeling approach for consecutive pipe failures. The covariates to be considered in the modeling procedures are selected by considering the general availability of the data and the practical applicability of the modeling results. The individual cast iron 6 inch pipes are categorized into seven ordered survival time groups according to the total number of breaks recorded in a pipe to construct distinct proportional hazard model (PHM) for each survival time group (STG). The modeling results show that all of the PHMs have the hazard rate forms of the Weibull distribution. In addition, the estimated baseline survivor functions show that the survival probabilities of the STGs generally decrease as the number of break increases. It is found that STG I has an increasing hazard rate whereas the other STGs have decreasing hazard rates. Regarding the first failure the hazard ratio of spun-rigid and spun-flex cast iron pipes to pit cast iron pipes is estimated as 1.8 and 6.3, respectively. For the second or more failures the relative effects of pipe material/joint type on failure were not conclusive. The degree of land development affected pipe failure for STGs I, II, and V, and the average hazard ratio was estimated as 1.8. The effects of length on failure decreased as more breaks occur and the population in a GRID affected the hazard rate of the first pipe failure.

The purpose of this research is to estimate a safe environmental level of human exposure to thresholding-acting toxicants in drinking water and recommend the acceptable levels and management plans for maintaining good quality of drinking water' and protecting health hazard. This research has been funded as a national project for three years from 1992 to 1995. This study(the second year, 1993-1994) was conducted to monitor 39 species of noncarcinogenic chemicals such as volatile organic compounds(VOCs), polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbens(PAHs), pesticides and heavy metals of drinking water at some area in six cities of Korea, and evaluate health risk due to these chemicals through four main steps (hazard identification, exposure assessment, dose-response assessment and risk characterization) of risk assessment in drinking water. In hazard identification, 39 species of non-carcinogenic chemicals were identified by the US EPA classification system. In the step of exposure assessment, sampling of tap water from the public water supply system had been conducted from 1993 to 1994, and 39 chemicals were analyzed. Inclose-response assessment for non-carcinogens, reference doses(RfD) and lifetime health advisories(HAs) of lifetime acceptable levels were calculated. In risk characterization of detected chemicals, the hazard quotients of noncarcinogens were less than one except those of manganese and iron in D city.

건설 산업의 재해 중 상당 부분은 작업자의 이동 중 발생한다. 건설 현장의 안전관리는 작업을 중심으로 수행되며, 이는 이동 경로에 존재하는 위험원에 대한 안전관리 수준을 상대적으로 낮게 만든다. 많은 연구자들이 위험원을 인지하는 것이 안전관리의 기본임을 제시하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 자동화 데이터 수집기술(Automated Data Collection)을 이용하여 작업자의 이동경로에 존재하는 위험원에 대한 안전관리자의 인지를 지원하는 모델을 개발하였다. 모델은 실시간 위치추적기술 기반의 작업자의 위치정보와 BIM을 통한 최적이동 동선의 비교를 통해 일차적으로 위험 가능 지역을 찾는다. 그리고 기존 위험지역과 작업지역을 필터링함으로써 위험 가능 지역을 폭을 좁힌다. 이를 바탕으로 안전 관리자는 위험원이 존재할 가능성이 높은 지역에 대한 정보를 제공받고, 현장의 상황에 맞는 안전관리대책을 수립할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서 제시된 모델을 통해 발견하지 못한 채 남을 수 있는 위험지역을 인지함으로써 안전관리 프로세스 범위에 속하지 않는 위험원을 줄일 수 있으며, 이를 통해 건설 현장의 안전 향상에 도움을 줄 것이라 예상된다.

The recognition of the risk hazards is a vital step to effectively prevent accidents on a construction site. The advanced development in computer vision systems and the availability of the large visual database related to construction site made it possible to take quick action in the event of human error and disaster situations that may occur during management supervision. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the risk factors that need to be managed at the construction site and review appropriate and effective technical methods for each risk factor. This research focuses on analyzing Occupational Safety and Health Agency (OSHA) related to risk zone identification rules that can be adopted by the image recognition technology and classify their risk factors depending on the effective technical method. Therefore, this research developed a pattern-oriented classification of OSHA rules that can employ a large scale of safety hazard recognition. This research uses joint reasoning of risk zone Identification and numeric input by utilizing a stereo camera integrated with an image detection algorithm such as (YOLOv3) and Pyramid Stereo Matching Network (PSMNet). The research result identifies risk zones and raises alarm if a target object enters this zone. It also determines numerical information of a target, which recognizes the length, spacing, and angle of the target. Applying image detection joint logic algorithms might leverage the speed and accuracy of hazard detection due to merging more than one factor to prevent accidents in the job site.
