After Kyeongju earthquake occurred in September 12, 2016, the seismic safety of nuclear power plants became important issue in our country. The seismic safety of nuclear power plant against beyond design basis earthquake became very important to secure the public safety. In this paper, the current status of the seismic safety assessment methodology is reviewed and some aspects for the reliability improvement of the seismic safety assessment results are proposed. Seismic margin analysis and probabilistic seismic safety assessment have been used for the seismic safety evaluation of a nuclear power pant. The basic procedure and the related issues and proposals for the probabilistic seismic safety assessment are investigated.

본 논문에서는 대전류 표준측정에 대한 STL TC의 Ad-Hoc Working Group의 최종방안에 대해 자세히 소개하여 이를 계기로 국내에서도 필요한 사전준비에 만전을 기하고자 한다. 향후 연속적으로 해야 할 업무, Shunt의 소유, 경비 지불방법 등에 대한 사항과 함께 우리나라 대전류 표준측정시스템의 구축절차를 제안하였으며, 이를 통해 대전류 측정에 있어서 국제표준과의 소급성을 확보할 수 있기 때문에 국내에서 시행하는 각종 시험에서 대전류 측정이 국제적으로 유효하게 될 것이다.

Environmental risk assessment of cadmium compounds was conducted using national monitoring data of aquatic and terrestrial compartments of local area. Aquatic and terrestrial toxicities of cadmium compounds on algae, daphnid, fish, earthworm, springtails and other species were evaluated. The toxicity data evaluated in this study were mainly from ECOTOX database provided by US EPA. Assessment factors were determined according to the EU technical guidance document and/or OECD proposal. Predicted no effect concentration (PNEC) values of aquatic and terrestrial toxicity were 25$\mu\textrm{g}$/L and 0.2 mg/kg, respectively and they were compared with cadmium exposure data of several local areas, which were used as Predicted exposure concentration(PEC) values. Most of the local area were found to be not risky. However, the risk values (PEC/NEC) of some metropolitan areas were greater than 1 when the most conservative PNEC value was applied.

Authors have selected a physiological bad breath patient( 62 years old, male ) among the bad breath outpatients who have visited the halitosis control clinic in Korea University Medical Center(KUMC). The patient visited the halitosis control clinic for his oral malodor control, 3 times from April to June in 2018, and in August the patient visited to KUMC malodor control clinic again for his assessment of his two months efforts. Getting the data about the patient's endeavor to get over his physiologic oral malodor and the estimation of the patient's satisfaction level at his oral malodor improvement by a questionnaire method, and the organoleptic level assessment by the dentist, then we could propose an estimation method of the physiologic oral malodor patient care prognosis.

Peer review is a well-known, pervasive and most reliable method for assessment of research proposals. But with the strength of peer review, it also has some various limitations and shortcomings. This study suggests the use of bibliometric indicators as a counterbalance of shortcomings and mistakes in peer review. Bibliometric indicators suggested in this study are somewhat different from the conventional ones. Bibliometric indicators with limited number of papers, use of impact factor and discrimination first and corresponding authors from co-authors may produce a more resonable indicators. In this way bibliometric indicators can be considered as complementary to a peer review.

This paper approaches the issue of seismic vulnerability assessment strategies for facade walls of traditional masonry buildings through the development of a methodology and its subsequent application to over 600 building facades from the old building stock of the historic city centre of Coimbra. Using the post-earthquake damage assessment of masonry buildings in L'Aquila, Italy, an analytical function was developed and calibrated to estimate the mean damage grade for masonry facade walls. Having defined the vulnerability function for facade walls, damage scenarios were calculated and subsequently used in the development of an emergency planning tool and in the elaboration of an access route proposal for the case study of the historic city centre of Coimbra. Finally, the methodology was pre-validated through the comparison of a set of results obtained from its application and also resourcing to a widely accepted mechanical method on the description of the out-of-plane behaviour of facade walls.

In port and its approach channel, traffic accidents such as collision, aground, minor collision have reached about 77% of total marine casualty in the area. In this paper, an attempt to enhance the safe navigation was proposed by offering marine traffic supporting system which helps VTS operator assist vessel effectively with the quantitative assessment on difficulty of each vessel. The system collects navigation data from onboard AIS, assesses the data in assessment mode to analyze the navigation difficulties of each vessel and displays the degree of danger of each vessel on the ECDIS in real-time to decide the intervention time or order of priority for VTS operator. The effectiveness of the system was verified by the VTS operators in Korea.
