  • This paper introduces three distinctive means for the use of a 189-meter high damped structure ensuring safety against earthquake: 1. Realization of L-shaped elevational structural planning: The bottom and top of the tower have belt trusses and hat trusses respectively to restrain the bending deformation. Furthermore, large-capacity oil dampers (damping force 6,000 kN) are installed in the middle part of the tower to restrain the higher-mode deformation. 2. Realization of L-shaped planar structural planning: We devised a means of matching the centers of gravity and rigidity by adjusting planar rigidity. Moreover, viscous damping devices are located at the edges of the L-shaped plan, where torsional deformation tends to be amplified. We call this the "Damping Tail" system. 3. Composite foundation to equalize deformations under different loading conditions: We studied the vertical and horizontal deformations using sway-rocking and 3D FEM models including the ground, and applied multi-stage diameter-enlarged piles to the tower and a mat foundation to the podium to keep the foundations from torsional deformations and ensure structural safety.

  • A finite element analysis has been performed to investigate the effect of die clearance on shear planes in the fine blanking of a part of automobile safety belt. For the analysis S45$^{\circ}C$ is selected as an material which is used in manufacturing the part of automobile safety belt and Cockcroft-Latham fracture criterion is applied, Effect of die clearance on die-roll width die-roll depth burnish zone and fracture zone has been concentrately investigated in the finite element analysis. From the analytical results it has been found that die-roll width and depth of the shear plane increase with increasing die clearance. And the burnish zone has been concentrately investigated in the finite element analysis. From the analytical results it has been found that die-roll width and depth of the shear plane increase with increasing die clearance. and the burnish zone decreases with increasing die clearance but the variation of fracture zone is opposite to that of burnish zone because the increase in die clearance requires less fracture energy Theoretical predictions are compared with experimental results, There is a good agreement between theory and experiment

  • This paper proposes a safety management method that extracts ETA (event tree analysis) based scenario and combines ICT technology to reduce serious disasters occurring workplace for shipbuilding and offshore plant. The statistics of Safety and Health Agency and (previous)Ministry of Public Safety and Security show that the most frequent accident among the serious disasters related to shipbuilding and offshore plant is falling. The main cause of accidents is absence of a safety belt and safety belt ring. To solve these problems, we create ETA based scenarios to derive results based on safety considerations. Based on these results, we propose a solution by applying ICT technology for accident prevention. Deriving ETA based scenarios and ICT technology, the proposed solutions include a system for detecting the wearing of safety belts and safety helmets, a system for detecting whether or not the safety belts are connected, and a hook system for measuring safety distances. These safety related systems can reduce the probability of death of workers. By preventing accidents using the proposed method, we can reduce serious disasters in shipbuilding and offshore plant and establish systematic safety management.

  • Existing child car seats do not have a monitoring means for the driver or guardian to effectively recognize the status of whether the seat belt of car seat is fastened and whether the ISOFIX of the car seat is fastened to the inside device of the vehicle. In this paper, we propose a smart car seat system which can monitor in real time, whether the seat belt of a child seated in the car seat is fastened and whether the ISOFIX of the car seat is fastened. The proposed system has been developed with a prototype, in which a Hall sensor, magnet, Bluetooth, and display device are used to detect whether these are fastened and to display the detection results. The prototype system provides the detection results as texts and alarm signal to the display for driver or guardian' smartphone in the car in motion. With functional tests of the prototype system, it was confirmed that the detection functions are properly operated, and the detection results were transmitted to the display device and smartphone via Bluetooth within 0.5 seconds. It is expected that the development system can effectively prevent safety accidents of child car seats.
