This paper describes the analysis of deterioration characteristics for connection factor used in grounding system. The connection method of grounding system is specified in IEC standard. In order to analyze the deterioration characteristics for connection factor, deterioration test was carried out when the connection factor was buried in salt water and underground. The test connection factors were C-type sleeve, clamp, and exothermic welding. As a consequence, most of the connection factor was corroded, and the electrical resistance decreased after deterioration. The analytical results can be used to establish the safety of grounding system.

An efficient and accurate algorithm is proposed to estimate cable safety factor of suspension bridges satisfying prescribed reliability levels. Uncertainties in the structure and load parameters are incorporated. The proposed algorithm integrates the concepts of the inverse reliability method and deterministic method for assessing cable safety factors of suspension bridges. The unique feature of the proposed method is that it offers a tool for cable safety assessment of suspension bridges, when the reliability level is specified as a target to be satisfied by the designer. After the accuracy and efficiency of the method are demonstrated through two numerical examples, the method is used to estimate cable safety factors of suspension bridges with span length ranging from 2000 to 5000 m. The results show that the deterministic method overestimates cable safety factor of suspension bridges because of neglecting the parameter uncertainty effects. The actual cable safety factor of suspension bridges should be estimated based on the proposed method.

An efficient and accurate algorithm is proposed to estimate flutter safety factor of suspension bridges satisfying prescribed reliability levels. Uncertainties which arise from the basic wind speed at the bridge deck location, critical flutter velocity, the wind conversion factor from a scaled model to the prototype structure and the gust speed factor are incorporated. The proposed algorithm integrates the concepts of the inverse reliability method and the calculation method of the critical flutter velocity of suspension bridges. The unique feature of the proposed method is that it offers a tool for flutter safety assessment of suspension bridges, when the reliability level is specified as a target to be satisfied by the designer. Accuracy and efficiency of this method with reference to three example suspension bridges is studied and numerical results validate its superiority over conventional deterministic method. Finally, the effects of various parameters on the flutter safety factor of suspension bridges are also investigated.

The importance of safety culture improvement and transformation has highlighted since an organization's safety culture can be the causal factor of the accident. Every designated aviation training school have to manage their own SMS and will comply with the regulations specified in article 49, Korean Aviation law. In related regulations, it is specified the safety culture status and problems of an organizations must be accessed and improved. On this study, safety culture index of designated aviation training school has measured using abbreviated CASS developed by KTSA. Results from the statistical analysis, the overall safety culture average found as 3.711. Among the subindex, mean of 'Employee Empowerment' appeared the most high(3.980) and 'Reward System' appeared the most low(3.309). Service providers are able to apply the intervention strategy on the basis of the results of these measurements. The weak part of Safety Culture might be improved and this will lead the better organizational culture.

LRFD 설계형식의 개별안전계수를 확률이론에 의하여 구할 때 주로 AFOSM 방법이 이용되어 왔다. 그러나 이 방법에 의해 구한 하중 및 저항계수를 사용하면 결과적인 신뢰성지수는 목표 신뢰성지수와 다를 수 있다. 최근 Ayyub 등이 제안한 Reliability-Conditioned(RC) 방법은 목표 신뢰성지수에 부합하지만 계산의 신속성 및 일관적 체계를 유지할 수 없다. 본 연구에서 제안한 RC/AFOSM 조합방법을 이용하면 계산의 체계가 일관적이고, 다양한 설계조건에 대하여 거의 일정한 개별안전계수를 결정할 수 있으며 이로부터 결과되는 신뢰성지수도 목표 신뢰성지수에 매우 근접하다.

Background: The vulnerability of international migrant workers is on the rise, affecting the frequency of occupational accidents at workplaces worldwide. If migrant workers are managed in the same way as native workers, the consequences on safety assurance and risk management will be significant. This study aimed to develop the vulnerability factor model for migrant workers in seafood processing industries because of significant risk-laden labor of Thailand, which could be a solution to control the risk effectively. Methods: A total of 569 migrant workers were surveyed (432 Burmese and 137 Cambodian), beginning with 40 initial vulnerability factors identified in the questionnaire established from experts. The data were analyzed through descriptive analysis; exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to ascertain the model. Results: The result of content validity >0.67 and the Cronbach's alpha of 0.957 specified the high reliability of 40 factors. The EFA indicated a total variance of 65.49%. The final CFA validated the model and had an empirical fitting; chi-square = 85.34, Adjust Goodness-of-Fit Index = 0.96, and root mean square error of approximation = 0.016. The structure concluded with three dimensions and 18 factors. Dimension 1 of the structure, "multicultural safety operation," contained 12 factors; Dimension 2, "wellbeing," contained four factors; and Dimension 3, "communication technology," contained two factors. Conclusion: The vulnerability factor structure developed in this study included three dimensions and 18 factors that were significantly empirical. The knowledge enhanced safety management in the context of vulnerability factor structure for migrant workers at the workplace.

본 연구는 해상풍력발전기 기초 설계에 사용되는 IEC 61400-3, DNV-OS-J101, GL Wind, EUROCODE, AASHTO 및 국내 설계기준의 설계방법 및 안전율의 정도를 비교, 분석함으로써, 국내에서 해상풍력발전기 기초 설계시 필요한 제반사항을 제공하고자 한다. 해상풍력발전기 기초 설계에 관한 국내외 설계기준을 분석한 결과 설계법은 크게 설계접근법, 하중저항 설계법, 허용응력설계법을 적용하고 있으며, 각 설계법에 따른 안전율 정도를 분석한 결과 하중저항계수 설계법과 설계접근법은 거의 유사한 수준의 안전율을 확보하고 있는 반면, 허용응력설계법에서는 다소 보수적인 안전율을 적용하고 있어 해상풍력발전기 기초의 경제적 설계를 위한 국내 설계기준 개발이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

The probability of failure is used to analyze the reliability of three dimensional slope failure, instead of conventional factor of safety. The strength parameters are assumed to be normal variated and beta variated. These are interval estimated under the specified confidence level and maximum likelihood estimation. The pseudonormal and beta random variables are generated using the uniform probability transformation method according to central limit theorem and rejection method. By means of a Monte-Carlo Simulation, the probability of failure is defined as; Pf=M/N N : Total number of trials M : Total number of failures Some of the conclusions derived from the case study include; 1. Three dimensional factors of safety are generally much higher than 2-D factors of safety. However situations appear to exist where the 3-D factor of safety can be lower than the 2-D factor of safety. 2. The F3/F2 ratio appears to be quite sensitive to c and ${\phi}$ and to the shape of the 3-D shear surface and the slope but not to be to the unit weight of soil. 3. In cases that strength parameters are assumed to be normal variated and beta variated, the relationships between safety factor and the probability of failure are fairly consistent, regardless of the shape of the 3-D shear surface and the slope. 4. As the c-value is increased, the probability of failure for the same safety factor is increased and as the ${\phi}-value$ is increased, the probability of failure for the same safety factor is decreased.

본 연구는 강우의 침투로 인한 불포화 토사사면의 안정 해석을 위한 절차를 제시한다. 강우 침투로 인한 사면의 거동은 흐름과 변형이 연관된 이차원 유한요소해석을 통하여 해석된다. 시간에 따른 안전율을 계산하기 위하여 유한요소 해석법을 통한 응력장(stress field)으로부터 가상활동면에 대한 안전율을 산정할 수 있도록 하는 정교한 응력적분기법을 적용하였고 기하학적으로 허용가능한 활동단면의 형상을 유지하면서 합리적으로 임계단면을 찾아가는 최적화방법을 적용함으로써 강우에 의한 토사사면의 안정성 평가 절차를 개발하였다. 또한 이를 이용하여 강우침투시 투수계수의 공간적인 변화가 불포화토사사면의 파괴 거동에 미치는 영향을 보다 공학적이고 합리적인 방법으로 연구하였다. 연구결과에 의하면 투수계수의 불균질한 분포로 인하여 강우에 의한 사면표면의 국부적인 파괴영역이 발생할 수 있고 이러한 영역이 점점 확대되어 전체적인 파괴에 이르게 된다. 그러므로 시간의존적 인 사면안정해석 문제의 경우 이러한 국부적인 파괴 영역의 영향을 더 이상 무시할 수 없다.
