In this paper we present a safety plan to be applied to the development of the TCS(Train Control System). The safety plan that can be applied to the life cycle of a system, from the conceptual design to the dismantlement, shows the whole process of the paper work in detail through the establishment of a goal, analysis and assessment, the verification. In this paper we study about the making a plan, the preliminary hazard analysis, the hazard identification and analysis to guarantee the safety of the TCS. The process far the verification of the system safety is divided into several steps based on the target system and the approaching method. The guarantee of the system safety and the improvement of the system reliability is fellowed by the recommendation of the international standards.

Nowadays, railroads are considered the most efficient form of mass transportation. Furthermore, it is necessary that railroads be paired with state-of-the-art safety equipment. Unfortunately, it is impossible to prevent 100% of accidents that may be caused by system or human errors. In order to prevent future accidents, RAMS activity and Functional Safety Certification are required for new systems that are under development. In this paper we evaluate the necessity of the application of RAMS and the performance of RAMS in the system development process. We also explore the Safety Evaluation Procedure required for RAMS certification.

Hybrid electric propulsion systems are expected as future primary combat platforms because the systems can supply enough electric power, easily locate components inside vehicles, and maneuver without undesired noise. However, increasing electric/electronic/software usage causes abnormal failure patterns which have not been noticeable in conventional automotive. Recently, the functional safety standard for road vehicles were enacted and vehicle manufacturers request their components which satisfy standardized quality. This research analyzes functional safety standards(IEC 61508 and ISO 26262) and compares the standards for road vehicles with military standards of system safety. Strategies to apply functional safety in the combat hybrid electric vehicle are scrutinized.

The concept of improved performance indicators (PIs) for use in the KINS Safety Performance Indicator (SPI) program for reactor safety area is proposed in this paper. To achieve this, the recently developed PIs from the USNRC that use risk information were investigated, and a feasibility study for the application of these PIs in Korean NPPs was performed. The investigated PIs are Baseline Risk Index for Initiating Events (BRIIE), Unplanned Scrams with Complications (USwC), and Mitigating System Performance Index (MSPI). Moreover, the thresholds of the existing safety performance indicators of KINS were evaluated in consideration of the risk and regulatory response to different levels of licensee performance in the graded inspection program.

인양장비는 원자력발전소에서 발생하는 사용후핵연료를 운반하는 운반용기를 인양하기 위해 사용된다. 본 연구는 원자력 안전위원회고시 제2013-27호와 미국 10CFR Part 71 ${\S}71.45$에서 규정하는 기술수준에 따라 이론적인 방법과 유한요소방법으로 인양장비의 구조적안전성을 평가하였다. 이론적으로 평가한 결과 모든 구성 요소에서의 응력이 응력제한치 내에 있어 운영상 발생하는 구조적 안전성을 확보하고 있는 것으로 판단하였다. 또한 유한요소해석을 통한 평가결과, 항복과 극한조건 모두에서 설계기준을 만족하는 것으로 평가되었다. 모든 구성요소에서 충분한 안전여유도(항복조건에서 3 이상의 안전율, 극한조건에서 5 이상의 안전율)를 갖는 것으로 나타나 구조적으로 안전하다고 판단하였다.

화학반응기에 발생한 화재·폭발 사고사례를 기반으로 화학반응기에 설치되어 있는 예방조치의 문제점을 분석하였다. 화학반응기는 다품종의 화학제품을 생산하며, 반응폭주시 급격히 상승하는 압력을 해소하기 위해 파열판을 설치하고 파열판의 기능을 유지하기 위해 배출물질을 대기로 배출하도록 허용하고 있어 화재·폭발사고가 발생하였다. 이를 개선하기 위한 방안으로 안전건전성수준(SIL3)을 기반으로 한 안전계장시스템(SIS)을 화학반응기의 예방조치로 적용하였다. 화학반응기의 원재료를 적하하는 배관에 긴급차단밸브를 직렬로 2개 설치하여 반응폭주시 긴급차단밸브 2개 중 1개만 작동하여도 원재료 공급을 차단할 수 있도록 하고, 반응응제제 공급배관에는 자동 ON/OFF 밸브를 병렬로 설치하여 반응폭주시 1개의 밸브만 열려도 반응억제제가 투입될 수 있게 하였다.

Delamination of cover concrete due to re-bar corrosion is a critical damage reducing structural safety of reinforced concrete structures. Therefore, it should be detected and evaluated to provide appropriate maintenance to recover structural integrity. Impact-echo method, which utilizes thickness vibration characteristics of delaminated concrete section, is effective for detection and evaluation of small areal size delamination. However, it may not be applicable for large areal size delamination in which flexural vibration modes are dominated. In this study, applicability of vibration mode shapes of delaminated concrete section is investigated for visualization of delamination region in concrete structures. Numerical and experimental modal tests are performed to estimate mode shapes of delaminated concrete section and linear absolute summation technique is proposed for effective visualization of delamination region based on estimated mode shapes.

An analysis program for the evaluation of pressure vessel integrity under pressurized thermal shock (PTS) is developed. For given material properties and transient history such as temperature and pressure, the stress distribution is calculated and then stress intensity factors are obtained for a wide range of crack sizes. The stress intensity factors are compared with the fracture toughness to check if cracking is expected to occur during the transient. Using this program a round robin problem of PTS during a small break loss of coolant transient has been analyzed as a part of the international comparative assessment study. The allowable maximum reference nil-ductility transition temperatures are determined for various crack sizes.

It is well known that mechanisms of fracture and fatigue crack propagation depend upon various characteristics such as environmental condition. crack geometry. heat treatment and mechanical properties. It seems to be important for the detailed evaluation of structural integrity to investigate the effects of the above factors on the behavior of structural components which contain flaws. In this paper. it is studied that the fatigue crack propagation of partly heat treated medium carbon steel (SM45C) by high frequency heat treatment.

하천제방 건전도 평가는 하천설계기준 해설(2009), 구조물기초 설계기준 해설(2009) 등 관련 기준을 토대로 한계동수경사법, 한계유속법 등에 의한 파이핑 안전성과 제내지 및 제외지의 활동안전성 평가에 의하여 수행된다. 이때 수위파형은 건전도 평가 시 가장 중요한 설계입력자료이나 관련 국가기준에서 그 결정방법을 제시하지 못함으로서 부정확한 설계가 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 낙동강 문산제를 대상으로 평수위 상승, 홍수위 지속, 수위하강, 홍수빈도 등 개별 수위파형을 변화시켜가면서 제방 안정성에 미치는 영향 정도와 합리적인 수위파형특성을 제안하였다. 평가결과, 문산제 조립토 제방의 설계수위파형은 최대 57시간 이상의 평수위상승시간 및 53시간 이상의 홍수위지속시간 등을 반영할 것을 제안하였다.
