Explosions of dangerous goods such as accidents at Iri and Yongcheon Stations bring about a big damage and loss of assets. And leakage of toxic and dangerous materials may cause environmental pollution. Therefore, in developed countries, safety and operation codes for the carriage of dangerous goods were already established. In this study. we have searched. analyzed and summarized korean domestic codes concerning the carriage of dangerous goods for the drawing up of a korean safety standard code.

A USB memory stick became common for secondary storage Unit.. But USB memory stick has critical problems as well. Such as personal information data leakage due to easy loss of the portable device. Therefore, User increased Repurchases of USB memory stick, and damage case of personal and company information data leakage increased. In this study, to prevent such loss and stolen, we propose Smart USB memory stick based on Bluetooth. Smart USB memory stick support the security and prevent the loss.

The research significance of the paper is to identify the major properties of synthetic lightweight concrete that are affected by ASR expansion and to determine the extent and magnitude of the loss in these properties. Emphasis is also given to the use of non-destructive testing techniques ; Such as dynamic modulus of elasticity and ultrasonic pulse velocity, to examine whether these methods could be used to identify the initiation of expansion and the internal structural damage caused by ASR.

This paper deals with development of a damage risk assessment system for adjacent buildings to under-passing tunnel face considering 3D-ground movement. The system consists of building and ground information module, monitoring data module, settlement evaluation module, and building damage risk assessment module. The major modules, settlement evaluation module and building damage assessment module, are based on settlement estimation model suggested by Attewell et al (1982) and the building damage assessment method by Mair et al. (1996). After estimating 3D-ground movements due to tunneling with settlement evaluation module, damage assessment far buildings is performed using building damage risk assessment module. The developed system has two major functions; 1) calculation of 3D-settlement with ground loss ($V_{s}$)or maximum settlement ($w_{max}$) and inflection point (i) using various empirical formulae, monitoring data, numerical results, and so on; 2) assessment of damage risk for adjacent buildings of arbitrary section with position change of tunnel face. The field data given by Boscadin and Cording (1989) leer the case of two-storied masonry building near the Metro tunnel in Washington D.C. was simulated to verify the applicability of the developed system.

This paper investigates earthquake response of reinforced concrete regular frames subjected to rebar corrosion. A typical four-story reinforced concrete frame is designed according to Turkish Earthquake Code in order to examine earthquake response. Then different levels of rebar corrosion scenarios are applied to this frame structure. The deteriorated conditions as a result of these scenarios are included loss in cross sectional area of rebar, loss of mechanical properties of rebar, loss in bond strength and variations in damage limits of concrete sections. The frame is evaluated using a nonlinear static analysis in its sound as well as deteriorated conditions. The rebar corrosion effect on the structural response is investigated by comparing the response of the frame in each scenario with respect to the sound condition of the frame. The results shows that the progressive deterioration of the frame over time cause serious reductions on the base shear and top displacement capacity and also structural ductility of the corroded frames. The propagation time, intensity, and extensity of rebar corrosion on the frame are important parameters governing the effect of rebar corrosion on earthquake response of the frame.

Dopamine, a principal neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, accounts for 90% of total catecholamines. It serves as a precursor of certain hormones, melanins, noradrenalin and adrenalin. Parkinsonian disease (PD) is characterized by selective loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta and a significant dimunution in the neostriatal content of dopamine and its metabolites.(omitted)

Railway safety is based on a risk analysis and safety assessment for the whole railway system as human, train, electric, signaling, operation, maintenance and etc. Therefore in this study, after investigating the accidents happened in electric railway on Choongang line for 5 years, from '97 to '01, a Data-Base was made through a cause and result analysis. In consideration of economic loss and human resources damage, a risk assessment for electric railway was also performed.

Background Aldosterone has an important role in the pathophysiology of heart failure. Aldosterone promotes the retention of sodium, the loss of magnesium and potassium, sympathetic activation, parasympathetic inhibition, myocardial and vascular fibrosis, baroreceptor dysfunction, and vascular damage and impairs arterial compliance. Objectives We investigated the effects of additional spironolactone to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) / angiotensin-II receptor blocker (ARB) in patients with heart failure.

In this paper, It proposes that solar cell monitoring system using ubiquitous technique, solar cells development system occurs the attrition at the same time in several segments. This is the reason why, whole damage is also looked greatly increased inclination. Therefore, we progress study that find out damage factor by element and are more deeply about loss reduction by element part hereafter. Also, efficiency of solar photovoltaics system can be improved. we wish to forecast efficiency decrease of solar photovoltaics using neural network algorithm. Experiment result hereafter, We will expect to be remote management of solar cell.

Most of steel structures in various industries are subjected to corrosion due to environmental exposure. Corrosion damage is a serious problem for these structures which may reduce their carrying capacity. These aging structures require maintenance and in many cases, replacement. The goal of this research is to consider the effects of corrosion by developing a model that estimates corrosion loss as a function of exposure time. The model is formulated based on average measured thickness data collected from three severely corroded I-beams (nearly 30 years old). Since corrosion is a time-dependent parameter. Analyses were performed to calculate the lateral buckling capacity of steel beam in terms of exposure time. Minimum curves have been developed for assessment of the remaining lateral buckling capacity of ordinary I-beams based on the loss of thicknesses in terms of exposure time. These minimum curves can be used by practicing engineers for better estimates on the service life of corrosion damaged steel beams.
