  • Arc Fault Current is an electric discharge which is occurred in two opposite electrode. In this paper, arc current control algorithm is designed for the interruption of arc fault current which is occurred in the local electric network. This arc is one of the main causes of electric fire. Arc fault in electrical network has the characteristics of low current, high impedance and high frequency. Conventional arc current controller does not have the arc current interrupt function. Hence, Controller of arc current is designed for the interruption of arc fault current which has the modified arc characteristics.

  • In Korea, The protective action distance based on Canada's ERG has been adopted for safety of residents in case of hazardous chemicals leakage accident. However, it couldn't respond properly on the accidents because of geographical and meteorological differences between two nations. In this study, It was found that the protective action distance varies depending on season and terrain, Through AERMOD modeling analysis for the petrochemical complex reflected local geographical data and meteorological conditions.

  • Emergency response has been considered as an important task in practice, because it is directly associated with the survival of patients. However, it is very difficult to increase the number of fire stations due to the budget and efficiency problem. Under this circumstances, it is critical to consider the suitability of current arrangement for 911 fire station. This is especially true in Gyeonggi-Do where the characteristics of each sub-area are different. In response, this study aims to identify types of areas that are vulnerable for emergency situations, and try to find relevant solutions for each type. For this purpose, we collected 151,463 data for emergency declaration data which exceeds 10 minutes for its response. Total 19 clustering variables which are used as input variables are selected, considering the characteristics of each area. As a result of clustering analysis, three clusters are identified and analyzed. Finally, areas whose emergence response time is in top 10% are selected and analyzed. This paper is expected to find current issues and problems of emergency response for each area, and help to understand and solve the problem for the local government.

  • Social welfare facilities are used by a wide range of local residents, including vulnerable populations such as the elderly, children, and people with disabilities. During emergencies like fires, confusion can arise as these individuals try to evacuate. Evacuation simulation results have shown that utilizing evacuation systems based on specific evacuation scenarios can significantly decrease the time required for evacuation compared to general evacuation procedures. By anticipating potential fires based on changes in social and facility environments, appropriate evacuation scenarios can be developed and applied to evacuation systems, thus contributing to the safety and security of individuals during emergencies. In conclusion, for social welfare facilities that serve a large number of people, it is necessary to expand the focus on performance-based design depending on the size of the facility, and to continuously develop and train for appropriate evacuation scenarios that align with changing facility environments.

  • 우리나라의 산악기상은 평지에서 나타나는 기상과는 다른 양상을 띠게 되어 서로 가까운 지역일지라도 전혀 다르고 복잡한 기상현상을 나타낸다. 국내에서는 모든 바람에 관한 자료는 평지의 AWS(Automatic Warning System) 기상관측 자료에 의해서만 의존한다. 본 연구는 임내 국부산지에서의 기상 모니터링 시스템을 웹기반으로 구축하였으며, 이를 통하여 얻어진 바람데이터와 인근 AWS에서의 얻어진 자료를 비교 분석 하였다. 분석 결과 습도와 온도는 유사한 패턴을 보이고 있으나 풍향과 풍속은 전혀다른 패턴을 보여주고 있어 실제산지에서의 기상데이터는 AWS와 일치하지 않는 것을 알 수 있다.

  • It is necessary to build countermeasure for the reduction of flood damage, such as the analysis of shelter activities of local residents and the publishment of flood informations. The control factors for mental refuge activity by the questionnaire survey were classified and estimated into two categories: internal and external ones. Furthermore, the optimal time for refuse activities related to flood risk was derived by hydraulic simulation. The shelter activities considering inundation depth will serve citizen's consensus by exercise, it would aid to support the activities to minimize flood victims.

  • 우리나라는 산림이 울창하고 가연성 낙엽 등의 가연성 물질들이 많이 쌓여 있으며, 경사가 급하고 기복이 많은 산지로서 초기진화 실패 시 연소진행 속도가 빨라 급속히 확산 시키는 산악 형 산림으로서 산불 발생 시 진화가 어려워 산불의 확산 속도와 강도를 추정하기 어려운 실정이다. 현재 산불이 발생과 동시에 초기 진화에만 초점을 마치고 있는 시점에서 초기 진화에 실패했을 경우 산불이 확산되는 경로와 시간 등을 예측하여 최소한의 인력과 장비를 이용하여 진화하는 시스템을 구축할 수 있는 경우는 아직 우리나라에서는 미흡하다. 본 연구에서는 특정지역의 국부지형 기상인자(풍향, 풍속)를 측정하여 산불이 발생 시 인자별 특성에 따라서 산불의 진행 경로와 산불의 진화 시나리오를 예측할 수 있는 시스템을 구축하는데 그 목적이 있다.
