  • Regional torrential rains in summer this year due to abnormal climate changes compared to last year, have been frequent. Since Typhoon Rusa and Typhoon Maemi resulted in major damage to railroad facilities in 2002 and 2003 consecutively, problems with abnormal climate changes became a global problem including railroad and floods and droughts around the globe, heavy snow and winter warming have been repeated until now. Serious problem of radiation leakage in Fukushima nuclear power plant by the Tsunami due to 9.0-scale earthquake, this year in March, in northeastern Japan happened, and has given an impact on the life of Japanese citizens and industries and has also influenced on Korean. This shows how important to secure and to protect major national facilities including railroad structures to natural disasters such as earthquake. Therefore, we will briefly discuss about technologies for securing and protecting railroad structures to earthquakes, floods and other natural disasters.

  • The turnout point system is installed to separate the main rail track from other tracks in rail load stations. It is also important to set up the switch point system to change the direction of the turnout point, to lead and change the direction of tracks. The switch point system can be negatively affected by heavy snow during winter seasons which can cause critical safety problems. Furthermore, the maintenance and repair of the conventional system is prohibitively expensive due to its complexity and high probability of failure. In this paper, an efficient switch point system is proposed which simplifies the equipment structure and lowers the cost for maintenance and repair, while improving safety and performance of the rail road system.

  • All around tile world there has been great human and economical damage continuously by disasters like the earthquakes and storms(Tsunami) in eastern asia which recently occurred, and like the New Orleams hurricane in USA. The situation is our countries damage from natural disasters due to heavy snow, storms, forest fires have been increasing In this research we obtained GSIS data of the 05' Yang-yang forest fire disaster area using multi-sensors like airborne laser data, GPS/INS, aerial photograph surveying. In result we produced digital topographical maps, digital elevation models, digital external models, digital images, infrared images. By, analyzing and comparing with past aerial photography we obtained the exact damage area, amount of damage, estimated tile areas where a landslide might occur, and we analyzed vegetations amount of damage and possibility of recovery.

  • In case the problem came into the headlight composed of a bulb, lens and reflecting mirror, it has a sealed-beam type which must exchange all and semi-sealed beam type which can exchange only bulb. The headlight of train must be used at the time of going into tunnel and atmospheric phenomena such as heavy snow, rain and foggy as a rule, also it can be used with whistle blow when the dangerous article appears. In this study, general technical specification to improve headlight of the KTX and G7 high speed train is described throughout investigation technique of the industrialized country and headlight specification of train which is on commercial service.

  • 본 연구에서는 비닐하우스 기존모델과 이번에 개발한 모델의 모델링 하였으며, 해석은 폭설이 250mm 왔을 때 쌓인 눈의 하중에 의하여 비닐하우스가 어떠한 변형을 하는 지를 구조해석을 통하여 비교하는 것이 주된 목적이다. 기존의 비닐하우스와 개발한 비닐하우스의 구조에 있어서 개발 모델을 적용함으로서 기존 모델보다 비용이 덜 들고 최대 50% 이상의 변형량을 줄일 수 있어 안정성이 좋고, 그 제작비용도 절감할 수 있다.

  • In recent years, it is a worldwide trend that many power utilities focus their attention to employ up-to-date communication technology to the automation of their power plants and distribution systems. Automation Systems in Korea was installed using twisted pair cable(TPC), power line carrier(PLC), coaxial cable(CA), wireless network(wireless data, TRS and PCS). Among the communication media only Satellite Communication guarantees the reliable communication in case of emergency such as a flood, a heavy snow and an earthquake. It can integrate two-way satellite systems to existent nationwide SCADA controlling points of electric power transmission & distribution system that enables real time remote monitoring and controlling automatically. This paper presents some of design efforts for the satellite communication network as the media of Automation Systems.

  • The railroad system must ensure not only the safety of facilities but also the prevention of natural and environmental disasters. The infrastructure must be strengthened in order to prevent rail damage by natural disasters and other causes. Thus, it would be able to prevent damage due to such natural factors like heavy rain and snow fall, wind, and catastrophic earthquakes. It seems that it would be the best way to install safety facilities throughout the entire length of a route, but one would not be able to provide for the costs involved in this approach. Therefore, these facilities must be installed at selected locations that is the most vulnerable to disasters. In this paper we propose the examples of both foreign and domestic methods in order to prevent from damages caused by the above-mentioned natural disasters and others.

  • 시공의 용이성과 저렴한 시공비로 간단하게 설치가능한 단동형 파이프하우스는 기상이변으로 인하여 농업생산에 큰 피해를 발생시키며 동시에 농업 생산기반 자체를 위협하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 폭설에 의한 파이프하우스의 피해를 줄이기 위해서는 실제 붕괴된 피해사례의 정확한 원인분석이 필요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 간략화법을 이용한 극한해석을 통해 파이프하우스의 붕괴원인 분석 방법을 개발하여 실제폭설에 의한 피해사례를 적용하여 실제 붕괴하중을 검토하였다.
