  • 연구목적: 본 연구의 목적은 '스마트 안전관리 시스템'의 통신 음영지역을 해소하는 것이다. '스마트 안전관리 시스템'은 고위험 작업장(산업현장, 재난현장)에서 일하는 근로자의 실시간 데이터를 모니터링하고 중계할 수 있다. 데이터는 구조팀에게 구조작업 시 '골든 타임'을 제공한다. 연구방법: 이 연구에서 안전 태그는 사용자의 중계기 역할을 하도록 설계 및 구현되었다. 연구결과: 다시 말해, 안전 태그와 지휘부의 통신 구간에서 통신 음영이 생길 경우, 안전 태그는 해당 지역의 다른 안전 태그에 대한 중계기 역할을 한다. 결론: 이 연구는 개발한 안전 태그가 통신 음영지역이 있는 특정 건물에서 통신두절 문제가 해소되는지 테스트했다. 먼저, 안전 태그와 지휘부 단말기 사이에서 통신 음영지역을 확인했다. 동일한 상황에서 추가 안전 태그를 배포한 결과 통신 음영지역이 해소된 것으로 나타났다. 중계기 역할을 하는 안전 태그는 테스트 빌딩에서 최대 지하 3층 까지 통신 음영지역을 해소할 수 있었다.

  • 본 논문에서는 철도 시스템에서 안전무결성수준 평가를 위한 다단계 퍼지 리스크 그래프를 제안한다. 본 모델은 입력변수의 모호함과 주관적 전문가 판단의 단점을 보완하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 다단계 퍼지 리스크 그래프 모델은 2단계로 구성된다. 본 논문에서는 첫 번째 퍼지화를 위한 상세 입력 변수가 제안되고 첫 번째 단계에서 퍼지 이론을 적용하여 기존의 리스크 그래프 입력 변수인 심각도, 노출도, 회피도, 요구율을 산정한다. 퍼지 추론 및 역퍼지화 결과 2단계에서 적용할 입력변수가 도출된다. 두 번째 단계에서는 식별된 해당 해저드에 대하여 안전 무결성 수준과 허용 해저드율을 산정하여 안전 요구사항을 수립한다. 또한 다단계 퍼지 리스크 그래프 모델을 검증하기 위해 CENELEC SC 9XA WG A10 보고서에 소개된 건널목 시스템을 대상으로 한 안전성 평가 결과와 비교하여 모델을 검증하였으며, 철도 분야의 초기 개념 설계 단계 안전성 요구사항을 수립 시 적용할 수 있다.

  • Background: Fatigue has a strong impact on workers' performance and safety, but expedient methods for assessing fatigue on the job are not yet available. Studies discuss posturography as an indicator of fatigue, but further evidence for its use in the workplace is needed. The purpose of the study is to examine whether posturography is a suitable indicator of fatigue in clerical workers. Methods: Thirty-six employees (${\emptyset}$ 34.8 years, standard deviation = 12.5) participated in postural tasks (eyes open, eyes closed, arm swinging, and dual task) in the morning and afternoon. Position of their center of pressure (COP) was registered using a Nintendo Wii Balance Board and commercial software. From registered COP time series, we calculated the following parameters: path length (mm), velocity (mm/s), anterior-posterior variance (mm), mediolateral variance (mm), and confidence area ($mm^2$). These parameters were reduced to two orthogonal factors in a factor analysis with varimax rotation. Results: Statistical analysis of the first factor (path length and velocity) showed a significant effect of time of day: COP moved along a shorter path at a lower velocity in the afternoon compared with that in the morning. There also was a significant effect of task, but no significant interaction. Conclusion: Data suggest that postural stability of clerical workers was comparable in the morning and afternoon, but COP movement was greater in the morning. Within the framework of dynamic systems theory, this could indicate that the postural system explored the state space in more detail, and thus was more ready to respond to unexpected perturbations in the morning.

  • The present paper investigates the collapse pressure of cylinders with intermediate thickness subjected to external pressure based on detailed elastic-plastic finite element (FE) analyses. The effect of the initial ovality of the tube on the collapse pressure was explicitly considered in the FE analyses. Based on the present FE results, the analytical yield locus, considering the interaction between the plastic collapse and local instability due to initial ovality, was also proposed. The collapse pressure values based on the proposed yield locus agree well with the present FE results; thus, the validity of the proposed yield locus for the thickness range of interest was verified. Moreover, the partial safety factor concept based on the structural reliability theory was also applied to the proposed collapse pressure estimation model, and, thus, the priority of importance of respective parameter constituting for the collapse of cylinders under external pressure was estimated in this study. From the application of the partial safety factor concept, the yield strength was concluded to be the most sensitive, and the initial ovality of tube was not so effective in the proposed collapse pressure estimation model. The present deterministic and probabilistic results are expected to be utilized in the design and maintenance of cylinders subjected to external pressure with initial ovality, such as the once-through type steam generator.

  • In this paper, the purpose is to investigate the stability of cracked cantilever T-beams subjected to axial force. In addition, an analysis of the natural frequency of a cracked beams as crack position, crack depth and tip mass is investigated. Based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the equation of motion is derived by the energy expressions using extended Hamilton's Principle. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations. The results of this study will contribute to the safety test and stability estimation of structures of a cracked T-beams subjected to axial force.

  • In this paper, a dynamic behavior(natural frequency) of a cracked simply supported pipe conveying fluid is presented. In addition, an analysis of the flutter and buckling instability of a cracked pipe conveying fluid due to the coupled mode (modes combined) is presented. Based on the Euler-Bernouli beam theory, the equation of motion can be constructed by using the Lagrange's equation. The crack section is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged beam segments. The stiffness of the spring depends on the crack severity and the geometry of the cracked section. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations. This study will contribute to the safety test and stability estimation of structures of a cracked pipe conveying fluid.

  • In this paper, the stability of cracked cantilever T-beams subjected to subtangential follower force is investigated. Also, the effect of subtangential coefficient and crack on the natural frequency of T-beams is presented. Based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the equation of motion is derived by the energy expressions using extended Hamilton's Principle. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations. The values of critical follower force and the stability maps of cantilever T-beams are obtained according to the subtangential coefficient and crack severity. The results of this study will contribute to the safety testing and the stability estimation of cracked T-beams subjected to follower force.

  • Current Bridge foundation design is based on Working Stress Design(WSD), but Load Factor Based on Optimum Reliability(LFBOR) design method is more rational than the WSD. For this reason, this study proposes a reliability based design criteria for the bridge foundation, which is most common type of bridge foundation(Shallow, Pile and Caission), and also proposes the theoretical basis of nominal safety factors of stability analysis by introducing the reliability theory. The limit state equations of stability analysis of bridge foundation and the uncertainty measuring algorithms of each equation are also derived by Cornell's MFOSM(Mean First Order 2nd Moment Methods)using the stability analysis fourmula Highway Bridge Design Codes.

  • Development of a three-dimensional mine visualization model for a section of the mine is addressed first. Discontinuity orientation and location information was taken from this visualization model for use in slope stability analyses. Estimated shear strength properties of discontinuities and mechanical properties of intact rock from the rock mass samples obtained from the mine are discussed next. The third part of the paper is focused on the results obtained for maximum safe slope angles for the section considered of the mine based on block theory analysis conducted under only the gravitational forces using the mapped discontinuities at the mine. Finally, the effects of water that exist in the rock mass, a tension crack, slope face inclination, overall wedge height and double benching on factor of safety of wedge stability are illustrated through limit equilibrium slope stability analyses conducted on a single tetrahedral wedge belonging to potential key block category that exist in the investigated area of the mine.
