2019년 정부는 경제성이 예비타당성조사 통과의 결정적 요소로 작용하는 문제 개선을 위해 종합평가의 경제성 항목 가중치 최대치를 50%에서 45%로 축소하도록 제도를 개선하였다. 이 연구는 2019년 제도개선에 따른 효과를 분석하기 위한 것으로 제도 개선 전과 후의 차이를 검증하였다. 회귀분석과 상관관계 분석결과 두 기간 모두 높은 상관성을 보였으며, Z검증을 통한 차이는 통계적으로 유의미하지 않은 것으로 분석되었다. 이 결과는 경제성의 영향력을 축소하기 위한 제도 개선이 효과가 없었다는 것을 의미한다. 따라서 종합평가 각 항목의 가중치를 기존 사업 등에 다양하게 대입해 재평가 해보는 등의 연구를 통해 보다 실효성 있는 종합평가 연구 설계 논의가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Objectives : The purposes of this preliminary study was to examine the feasibility of recruiting women into a clinical trial designed to examine the effects of acupuncture in treating urinary incontinence (UI) in premenopausal women with delivery history and the feasibility of performing the study procedures. We also tried to determine if there was preliminary evidence to suggest that acupuncture may be effective in reducing UI and improving disease-specific quality of life. Methods : This study was a pragmatic randomized clinical trial. Subjects between the ages of 20 and 49 years were randomly assigned to a treatment(n=11) or control group(n=11) and analyzed. Both groups were supposed to do Kegel exercise at home during 4 weeks and acupuncture was applied to the treatment group twice a week(8 sessions) additionally. Subjects performed 1 hour pad test and completed a 3-day urination diary, international consultation on incontinence modular questionnaire(ICIQ), and incontinence - quality of life(I-QOL) at base line and 5 weeks. Results : Both group showed improvement in 1 hour pad test and the reducing amount of UI was significantly larger in treatment group(p=0.0182). The significant improvements in ICIQ and I-QOL were also observed in treatment group and sustained until the follow-up measurement at 16 weeks. Any adverse reaction related to acupuncture did not happen. Conclusions : It was feasible to recruit subjects and perform the study procedures. The positive results of this study support the requirement for additional research investigating the efficacy of acupuncture in the treatment of UI in women.

Of late, demand for test sites for marine equipment such as ASV, AUV, ROV, and various underwater sensors is increasing. The authors have focused on an oscillating water column (OWC), which is being constructed near Chagwido Island Jeju, as one of the test-sites. The main objective of the OWC is to produce wave energy and develop technologies. It has been built in the sea approximately 1 km off the coast. It has berth accommodation and some rooms that can be used as laboratories. To investigate the feasibility of its usage as a test site for marine equipment, we acquired bathymetric data around the OWC by using a multi-beam echo sounder and a single-beam scanning sonar. The accessibility of the OWC from nearby ports and the use of support vessels or ships were also investigated. 3D point cloud data from the multi-beam echo sounder and 2D acoustic images from the scanning sonar are expected to be used as references for identifying changes over time. In addition, through these experiments, we derived a procedure to use this facility as a test site by using the IDEF0 functional modelling method. Based on this preliminary investigation and previously reported examples, we determined the general conditions and preferences for evaluating the performance of various marine equipment heuristically. Finally, we developed five applications that were derived from this investigation.

본 연구는 한국개발연구원의 예비타당성조사에서 문화 과학 시설 등의 비정형 사업에 대한 편익 평가의 기법으로 활용도가 커지고 있는 CVM의 분석체계를 고찰하고 개선과제를 제시하였다. CVM의 설계에서 시장영역, 즉 목표모집단의 설정, 소득세라는 지불수단, 5년간 연단위로 한정하는 지불 방법, 저항응답의 사유 등에 대해서는 추가적인 논의가 필요하고, CVM의 설계에서 편의를 줄일 수 있는 전문가 검토, 표적집단조사, 사전조사, 본조사가 운영되도록 하여야 한다. 한편 CVM의 지불의사 유도 방법으로 활용되고 있는 단일 및 이중 양분선택형 질문방식에 의한 지불의사 유도 방법이 일반적이지만, 이 모형들과 관련된 쟁점에 대한 검토와 더불어 이외의 모형에 대해서도 검토하는 작업이 필요하다. WTP 함수 추정에 가정하고 있는 특정 분포 가정을 다양화하여 WTP의 변동성을 검토하고, 모수적 분포 이외에 비모수적 기법을 활용하여 WTP 함수를 추정하는 연구가 필요한 시점이다. 아울러 0의 지불의사 문제와 저항응답을 처리하기 위한 다양한 시도가 필요하며, 지불거부여부를 제시금액 이전에 제시하는 등의 질문 순서의 변화 등을 통한 지불거부자 파악 과정에서 발생하는 편의를 회피하는 노력 등도 검토되어야 한다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility and validity of the Application of Cognitive Function Scale as developed by Lidz and Jepsen (1997). Data were collected from 4 to 5-years-old children. The analysis for item adequacy indicated that the passing rate increases according to age. Futhermore the analysis for test adequacy indicated that internal consistency reliability was .85 in the pre-test and .80 of post-test in terms of the cognitive function scale, and .90 of pre-test and .93 in the post-test in relation to the behavior observation scale. In conclusion, our analysis of the ACFS shows sufficiently high scores in terms of both validity and reliability, so as to indicate that this test is an appropriate way to measure the cognitive function and non-intellective function of young Korean children.

Pipe wall thinning caused by erosion and corrosion can adversely affect the operation of aged nuclear power plants. Some injured workers owing to pipe rupture has been reported and power reduction caused by unexpected pipe damage has been occurred consistently. Therefore, it is important to develop erosion-corrosion damage prediction model and investigate its mechanisms. Especially, liquid droplet impingement erosion(LDIE) is regarded as the main issue of pipe wall thinning management. To investigate LDIE mechanism with corrosion environment, we developed erosion-corrosion damage simulation apparatus and its capability has been verified through the preliminary damage experiment of 6061-Al alloy. The apparatus design has been based on ASTM standard test method, G73-10, that use high-speed rotator and enable to simulate water hammering and droplet impingement. The preliminary test results showed mass loss of 3.2% in conditions of peripheral speed of 110m/s, droplet size of 1mm-diameter, and accumulated time of 3 hours. In this study, the apparatus design revealed feasibility of LDIE damage simulation and provided possibility of accelerated erosion-corrosion damage test by controlling water chemistry.

The objective of this study is to develop qualification analysis preliminary frame for railway personal injury accident. In this research, we develop accident scenarios to analyze systematically and evaluate quantitatively fatality accident scenarios for railway personal. The accident scenario analysis first identifies the hazardous events and explains the hazardous conditions that surround the accident and cause railway accidents. This method includes a feasibility test, a clustering process and a pattering process for a clearer understanding of the accident situation. Since this method enables an accident scenario analysis to be performed systematically as well as objectively, this method is useful in building better accident prevention strategies. Therefore, this study could serve to reduce railway accidents and could be an effective tool for a hazard analysis.

The design of a wooden impact limiter equipped to a transportation cask for radioactive materials was optimized. According to International Atomic Energy Agency Safety Standards, 9 m drop tests should be performed on the transportation cask to evaluate its structural integrity in a hypothetical accident condition. For impact resistance, the size of the impact limiter should be properly determined for the impact limiter to absorb the impact energy and reduce the impact force. Therefore, the design parameters of the impact limiter were optimized to obtain a feasible optimal design. The design feasibility criteria were investigated, and several objectives were defined to obtain various design solutions. Furthermore, a probabilistic approach was introduced considering the uncertainties included in an engineering system. The uncertainty of material properties was assumed to be a random variable, and the probabilistic feasibility, based on the stochastic approach, was evaluated using reliability. Monte Carlo simulation was used to calculate the reliability to ensure a proper safety margin under the influence of uncertainties. The proposed methodology can provide a useful approach for the preliminary design of the impact limiter prior to the detailed design stage.
