As the world plant market extends, the number of the domestic construction company expansion to the abroad plant market is increasing. However, there is a lack of plant experts for opening domestic and abroad plant market; call in plant experts from abroad. Moreover, domestic plant education programs are not well constructed. And the education programs are not characterized by field, environment, and position. Thus, we should develop contents and establish the foundation for the plant education programs to train appropriate plant experts who will lead the world plant market. The purpose of the study is to develope educational contents for plant experts to be compatible in the abroad plant market. The contents developed by this study may practically used as the fundamental material for the future educational program.

The purposes of this study were to investigate the satisfaction of working uniform in Nuclear Power Plant and to suggest the improvement of dissatisfaction. 150 workers in control area of Nuclear Power Plant were participated in survey and 30 questionnaires were asked and subjective description was allowed. 65%/35% Poly/Rayon coverall type working uniform was investigated for this survey which had been wearing usually and basically in control area in Nuclear Power Plant. According to the results, respondents were most highly dissatisfied with the wearing convenience aspect of current coverall among any other aspects, like textile and management. In wearing convenience aspects, wrist and ankle opening band system, the design, number and placement of pocket, waist belt design, the width of sleeve and pants, and ADR opening system were dissatisfied and requested for improvement. In textiles aspects, weight, protection from radiation materials, prevention from static electricity, moisture absorption, ventilation and flexibility/elasticity were dissatisfied and requested for improvement. In management aspect, washing uniform and size variation were dissatisfied and requested for improvement. Therefore, for more comfortable human interfaced working uniform, wearing convenience system as well as textile and management system must be compensated and should be newly developed for improving worker comfort, mobility, and productivity.

Paramyrothecium eichhorniae sp. nov. was observed and collected from Chiang Mai and Phetchaburi Provinces, Thailand. This new species is introduced based on morphological and molecular evidence. This fungus is characterized by its production of sporodochium conidiomata with a white setose fringe surrounding an olivaceous green to dark green slimy mass of conidia, penicillately branched conidiophores, and aseptate and cylindrical to ellipsoid conidia. Phylogenetic analyses of combined LSU rDNA, ITS rDNA, tef1, rpb2, tub2 and cmdA sequence data using maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian approaches placed the fungus in a strongly supported clade with other Paramyrothecium species in Stachybotryaceae (Hypocreales, Sordariomycetes). The descriptions of the species are accompanied by illustrations of morphological features, and a discussion of the related taxa is presented.

For the success of the plant project, it is necessary to review the project's progress through technical and business reviews at an appropriate time, such as design and construction, and determine whether to invest or to proceed with the project to manage risks. In particular, since the plant development projects are not mass-produced, trial and error in design and construction can have severe impacts in terms of cost and schedule. To this end, gate reviews are currently being conducted in plants and other industrial sectors, but there are few studies on how to conduct gate reviews suitable for the plant field. In addition, there is little literature to refer to when conducting gate reviews. So, in this study, we present an overall framework that includes the types of gate reviews to be performed and items to be checked in each gate review on small and medium-sized plant development projects in which the owner directly develops and operates plants.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of risk perception and opportunistic behavior on project performance and the moderating effect of cooperation in this relationship through literature review to identify factors affecting the performance of large-scale nuclear power plant construction projects. Methods: This study conducted a survey on nuclear power plant construction project participants and verified the hypothesis using statistical methods. Results: The results of this study are as follows; First, risk perception appeared to have a positive effect on opportunistic behavior, and it was confirmed that opportunistic behavior among participating companies could occur even in nuclear power plant construction projects. Second, it has been proven that risk perception has a negative effect on project performance as suggested in previous studies. Third, in the relationship between opportunistic behavior and project performance, it was found that opportunistic behavior had a negative effect on project performance. Finally, cooperation was found to have a moderating effect on the relationship between performance risk and project performance. Conclusion: This study is a case of empirical analysis targeting nuclear power plant construction project workers, and provided a basis for reference in future related academic research and project implementation.

Regarding the implementation of ROMM project (Rehabilitation, Operation, Maintenance & Management), which is one of overseas development projects, it is very important to diagnose the exact current status of aged thermal power plant. However, when people visit the power plant for the purpose of prediagnosis to implement the ROMM project, most target power plants for diagnosis, in general, are under operation. This can be a big interference factor to diagnose the exact current status of power plants. Therefore, in order to solve such interference factor, based on the 30 years of know-how in the field, the present study has developed a regression curve for a simple life time assessment and the calculation of rehabilitation cost that may be used as a reference relatively for the quantitative diagnosis on the status of a relevant power plant even during the operation of the power plant.

The main objective of this paper is to search whether containment vessel's best pressure may increase until how long when loss of coolant accident (LOCA) happened in containment vessel of Ulchin nuclear power plant 1 and 2. Another goal of this research is to find the influential factors that increase containment vessel pressure. Model for this research is Ulchin nuclear power plant 1 with 10 cycles. Data were collected by simulator of Ulchin nuclear power plant 1 and design of experiment was used for data analysis. For the experiment, seven factors that are going to influence in containment vessel pressure were chosen. It was found that fatter which influences in early rise of containment vessel pressure after LOCA is only explosion size. Also, containment vessel's best pressure (3.74 bar.a) was much lower than limit (4.86 bar.a) of FSAR (Final Safety Analysis Report).

Both the importance and process of estimating Nuclear-power plant construction time and cost have increased in significance as energy user costs themselves have become more significant. In estimating construction time, few parameters are more significant than work item production rates and factors significantly affecting the rates. A standardized data collection tool was used to acquire a total of 401 data points from a S Nuclear-power plant project, for selected critical works: form-work, rebar-work, and concrete-pouring. With the data, several hypothesized drivers of the man-hour production rates and crew-day production rates were also analyzed. Findings from this study will enable industry professionals to enhance accuracy of time and cost estimation for nuclear power plant construction.
