  • 최근 고속도로 본선구간에서 발생한 교통사고에 대한 연구가 다수 수행되고 있으나, 램프와 같이 본선 외 구간에 대한 교통안전을 다루는 연구는 미미한 실정이다. 최근 5년(2015년~2019년)동안 램프에서 발생한 사고는 총 6,717건으로 이는 전체 고속도로 사고의 약 15%를 차지한다. 본 연구에서는 고속도로 램프구간에 대해 보다 정확한 사고 예측 모형을 제공하기 위해 포아송 감마(PG)와 포아송 역가우스(PIG)와 같은 다양한 통계 분포를 비롯하여 랜덤효과와 같은 기법을 적용하여 Simple 및 Full SPF를 구축하고 비교하였다. 교통 및 도로 기하구조 데이터는 로드뷰와 같은 다양한 시스템에서 수집되었다. 분석 결과, PIG 모형은 일반적으로 더 정확한 사고 예측을 제시하며, Simpe SPF와 Full SPF 모두에서 임의효과 모형이 더욱 우수한 성능을 나타내었다. 본 연구결과는 교통실무자들에게 정확한 사고 예측 모형을 기반으로 램프구간 교통안전을 증대시키고 이해할 수 있는 참고자료로써 활용될 수 있다.

  • 본 논문은 기존의 자동문시스템의 단점을 개선하여 보다 지능적인 기능을 추가함으로써 통행자에게 편의를 제공하고, 전격손실을 낮추는 보다 효율적인 초음파센서 기반의 지능형 자동문 시스템을 제안한다. 기존의 자동문시스템에서는 물체 및 인체 감지 기능 센서로서 원적외선 열선 감지센서와 근적외선 반사식 감지센서를 사용해 왔나. 기존의 방식은 상황에 맞지 않는 문닫힘에 의한 전력손실, 빠르게 다가오는 물체에 대한 적응 부족, 그리고 안전에 대한 문제점이 있었다. 제안된 초음파센서를 이용한 지능형자동문 시스템은 기존의 자동문시스템에 비교하여 필요없는 문닫힘 방지에 의한 전력손실 방지와 빠르게 접근하는 물체에 적응적으로 자동문이 빠르게 열릴 수 있게 하며, 안전도를 높여 기존 방식의 자동문보다 운용적, 경제적, 안정 면에서 성능을 개선하였다.

  • Due to the aging workforce in the construction industry in South Korea, the accident rate has been increasing. The cognitive abilities of older workers are closely related to both safety incidents and labor productivity. Therefore, there is a need to improve cognitive abilities through personalized training based on cognitive assessment results, using cognitive training content, in order to enable safe performance in labor-intensive environments. The provided cognitive training content includes concentration, memory, oreintation, attention, and executive functions. Difficulty levels were applied to each content to enhance user engagement and interest. To stimulate interest and encourage active participation of the participants, the difficulty level was automatically adjusted based on feedback from the MMSE-DS results and content measurement data. Based on the accumulated data, individual training scenarios have been set differently to intensively improve insufficient cognitive skills, and cognitive training programs will be developed to reduce safety accidents at construction sites through measured data and research. Through such simple cognitive training, it is expected that the reduction of accidents in the aging construction workforce can lead to a decrease in the social costs associated with prolonged construction periods caused by accidents.

  • The purpose of this paper is to conduct ETA on six items of ESS: the whole system, battery, BMS, PCS, ESS and cable. To achieve that, ESS work flow and its components are categorized. Based on performance, human, environmental, management, and safety, this paper drew initiation events (IE) and end states (ES). ETA is applied to the main functions of each item, and the end states that may occur in one initiation event are suggested. In addition, detailed classification was performed to induce various end states on the basis of the suggested initiation events ; loss of grid electricity of ESS, loss of battery electricity(DC) of battery, impairment of electric function of BMS, loss of grid electricity(AC) of PCS, loss of data of EMS, Mechanical damage of cable, event sequence analysis conducted on the basis of event trees. If the suggested IEs and ESs are applied on the basis of ESS event cases, it is expected to prevent the same kinds of accident and operate ESS safely.

  • A model-based systems engineering (MBSE) approach to implementing hardware-based network cybersecurity controls for APR1400 non-safety data network is presented in this work. The proposed design was developed by implementing packet filtering and deep packet inspection functions to control the unauthorized traffic and malicious contents. Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack was considered as a potential cybersecurity issue that may threaten the data availability and integrity of DCS gateway servers. Logical design architecture was developed to simulate the behavior of functions flow. HDL-based physical architecture was modelled and simulated using Xilinx ISE software to verify the design functionality. For effective modelling process, enhanced function flow block diagrams (EFFBDs) and schematic design based on FPGA technology were together developed and simulated to verify the performance and functional requirements of network security controls. Both logical and physical design architectures verified that hardware-based cybersecurity controls are capable to maintain the data availability and integrity. Further works focus on implementing the schematic design to an FPGA platform to accomplish the design verification and validation processes.

  • Used nuclear fuel will likely be stored dry for extended periods of time in the USA. Until a final disposition pathway is chosen, the storage periods will almost definitely be longer than were originally intended. The ability of the important-tosafety structures, systems, and components (SSCs) to continue to meet storage and transport safety functions over extended times must be determined. It must be assured that there is no significant degradation of the fuel or dry cask storage systems. Also, it is projected that the maximum discharge burnups of the used nuclear fuel will increase. Thus, it is necessary to obtain data on high burnup fuel to demonstrate that the used nuclear fuel remains intact after extended storage. An evaluation was performed to determine the conditions that may lead to failure of dry storage SSCs. This paper documents the initial technical gap analysis performed to identify data and modeling needs to develop the desired technical bases to ensure the safety functions of dry stored fuel.

  • This study investigates the reliability of the performance levels of moment resisting steel frames subjected to lateral loads such as wind and earthquake. The reliability assessment has been performed with respect to three performance levels: serviceability, damageability, and ultimate limit states. A four-story moment resisting frame is used as a typical example. In the reliability assessment the uncertainties in the loadings and in the capacity of the frame have been considered. The wind and earthquake loads are assumed to have lognormal distribution, and the frame resistance is assumed to have a normal distribution. In order to obtain an appropriate limit state function a linear relation between the loading and the deflection is formed. For the reliability analysis an algorithm has been developed for determination of limit state functions and iterations of the first order reliability method (FORM) procedure. By the method presented herein the multivariable analysis of a complicated reliability problem is reduced to an S-R problem. The procedure for iterations has been tested by a known problem for the purpose of avoiding convergence problems. The reliability indices for many cases have been obtained and also the effects of the coefficient of variation of load and resistance have been investigated.
