  • This study focuses on the issue of control performance of safety budget for preventing and reducing industrial accidents in Korea. The effect of safety budget such as industrial accident prevention fund on the safety performance is statistically examined first. The role and control performance of industrial accident prevention fund is particularly addressed to reduce the related accidents. The effectiveness of the industrial accident prevention fund-industrial accident relationship is then explained with a simple PI control mechanism.

  • The aim of apartment house remodeling should be accomplished by three courses; first, to reduce resources and environmental pollution, and second, to overcome social issue such as sick house syndrome on the point of residents' safety, and last, to secure life quality of apartment house healthy and nature friendly through satisfying residents' desire comfortable and safety course. Thus, this study aims to suggest the basic data to improve remodeling of apartment house considering residents' safety on the point of greenness, because of preventing social issue such as sick house syndrome, creating comfortable interior space, deducing indiscreet remodeling, and developing sustainable construction, through grasping customers' demand, and analyzing the correlation between remodeling status and residents' attitude survey of sick house syndrome.

On the Integrated process of RSS model and ISO / DIS 21448 (SOTIF) for securing autonomous vehicle safety (자율주행 자동차 안전성 확보를 위한 RSS 모델 및 ISO/DIS 21448 (SOTIF) 통합 프로세스 구축에 관한 선행연구)

  • Today, as the number of vehicles equipped with autonomous driving functions increases, the use of various sensors increases, and the complexity of system configuration increases. The ISO 26262 standard was published to prevent caused by systematic errors. Recently, the issue of external environmental factors rather than mechanical failure has increased. This issue is a problem outside of the scope of ISO 26262, and the ISO/DIS 21448 standard was published to solve this problem. Also, Mobileye proposed the RSS model that defined safe distance for dangerous situations in order to secure the safety of autonomous vehicles and who is responsible in case of an accident. In this paper, integrated process of ISO 21448 and RSS model, and through these results, we expect that possible to contribute to securing the safety and reliability of autonomous vehicles in the future.

  • In recent years, as the number of death in accidents have increased in the working environment, the safety issue has emerged as an important social issue. Despite efforts to reduce safety accidents through many existing safety-related policies and systems, accident prevention is limited. Accident prevention services using IoT technology have been commercialized recently and the effect is very high. In this study, IOT technology is used to investigate the latest cases of reducing death accidents in the work environment.

  • The aging of society is not only Korea's challenge but also a global issue. This leads to an increase in the number of elderly drivers who are much more prone to major traffic accidents. Therefore, we need a system to test aged drivers' driving abilities. As part of efforts to establish such a system, researchers of KoROAD. have conducted a study on the correlation between aging and driving abilities by analyzing old drivers' reaction time. The study shows that there was a sharp increase in reaction time for drivers aged 65 and over. The current reaction time of 2.5 secs for the 85 percent of eligible drivers needs to be revised upward in aging societies. From now on, we need to come up with the traffic safety measures that can deal with the issue of drivers of old age.
