  • In developing avionics systems, safety analysis and evaluation specified in SAE ARP4761 (Methods and Guidelines for Civil Aviation System and Equipment Safety Assessment Process) are carried out to prevent air accidents. Safety analysis requires knowledge of the abnormal state of the system, not its normal state, and its interrelationships with other standards. Therefore, a tool that automatically outputs data which proves compliance with safety certification standards is required. In this study,In this study, Schematized the safety analysis procedure of the specification and studied the method of applying the safety analysis CAD tools to individual procedure. As an example study, ARP4761 analysis was performed on the wheel brake system (WBS) of the ARP4761 appendix.

  • In order to reduce the risk of accidents, we proposed a construction safety management system combined with wearable device and LoRa (Low-Range Wireless Network) communication method to apply the usefulness of Internet (IoT) technology which means "everything connected". to construction safety management Management system. The proposed wearable safety device is a device that relays information exchange between wearable safety device and safety management server by LoRa wireless communication method. The safety management server can store workers bio-data and perform big data analysis. If a risk factor is determined from the analysis result, a warning is sent to the wearable safety device and the manager's application. The goal of this system is to prevent construction workers from entering the dangerous area that is not suitable for work, and to prevent safety accidents caused by human cause by detecting abnormal condition during work.

  • Hazard and operability (HAZOP) analysis is one of the safety analysis method that is used in the chemical complex, because it can systematically identify causes and consequences of all the deviation that could occur. Since this method needs to hire specialized experts, it is costly and time-consuming. Therefore HAZOP Expert System has been developed to automate this analysis. This approach introduced object-oriented method and knowledge representation which is hierarchical tree of units to supply flexibility in the system, functional semantic network, propagation equation and rule-chaining method to set up the expert system for automating HAZOP analysis.

  • We investigated dissatisfaction of elements of local exhaust system, needs for local exhaust system, and information networks for local exhaust system from June 1998 to September 1999 using the questionnaire structured. It contained questions concerning general characteristics of factory and local exhaust system, troubles and dissatisfaction of elements of local exhaust system, and information networks for local exhaust system. The collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics analysis. Information networks for local exhaust system were analyzed by multidimensional scaling using path distance of network analysis and by graph analysis using Krackplot. Among complaints of local exhaust system, that of duct has show the highest percentage of complaint. In the information network for local exhaust system, Seoul is positioned in the center of network with mediating role.

  • We developed the platform safety step system for the passenger to avoid misstep accident and secure the pedestrian safety. In this study, we classify platform safety step system into hierarchy system and predict the failure rate of each part and calculate the failure rate & MTBF(Mean Time Between Failure) of each module(sub-system) by means of RBD(Reliability Block Diagram) & FTA(Fault Tree Analysis). Finally, we will propose the reliability analysis results for RAMS analysis of platform safety step system.

  • The operational safety assessment is an important part of a safety case for the deep geological repository of spent fuels. It consists of different stages such as the identification of initiating events, event tree analysis, fault tree analysis, and evaluation of exposure doses to the public and radiation workers. This study develops a probabilistic safety assessment method for the operational safety assessment and establishes an assessment framework. For the event and fault tree analyses, we propose the advanced information management system for probabilistic safety assessment (AIMS-PSA Manager). In addition, we propose the Radiological Safety Analysis Computer (RSAC) program to evaluate exposure doses to the public and radiation workers. Furthermore, we check the applicability of the assessment framework with respect to drop accidents of a spent fuel assembly arising out of crane failure, at the surface facility of the KRS+ (KAERI Reference disposal System for SNFs). The methods and tools established through this study can be used for the development of a safety case for the KRS+ system as well as for the design modification and the operational safety assessment of the KRS+ system.

  • It is well known that the test and evaluation plan (TEP) is very crucial in the successful development of safety-critical systems. As such, this paper discusses an approach to the development of the TEP for a system that should meet safety requirements in the systems development process. It is studied how to incorporate the result of preliminary hazard analysis (PHA) in generating the safety requirements. It is also discussed how to deal with them when the system requirements (i.e., functions, performance, constraints, components, etc) and the safety requirements are integrated into one model. While doing so, we have constructed the required traceability among them, which is necessary and very useful when the safety requirements need to be corrected or be changed. The use of the traceability makes it possible to easily check out whether and how the safety requirements are properly incorporated in the system design process. Furthermore, without the verified traceability, the system cannot be changed or upgraded later. In order to implement the model on a computer-aided tool, we have constructed a database (DB) schema. As a result, the implemented model/DB allows to automatically generate TEP which can be used to measure the performance and safety level of the developed system.

  • Currently, as a priority to secure the safety of the railway signalling system, verification for satisfy of the safety integrity requirements(SIR) is required to the essential elements. Safety Integrity Requirements(SIR) verification is performed based on the system safety analysis. But the probability of securing basic data for system safety analysis significantly dropped because there is no experience yet performed in the country. Therefore we are had to rely on a qualitative analysis. There are methods such as qualitative risk analysis matrix, and risk graphs. The qualitative analysis is wide, the width of the accident. However, the reliability of the result is significantly less has a disadvantage. Therefore, it should be parallel quantitative safety analysis of the system/products in order to compensate for the disadvantages of the qualitative analysis. This paper presents a quantitative safety analysis method to overcome the disadvantages of the qualitative analysis. And through a result, highly reliable Safety Integrity Requirements(SIR) verification measures proposed. Verification results, the dangerous failure incidence for vital data processing device was calculated to be $1.172279{\times}10^{-9}$. The result was verified to exceed the required safety integrity targets more.

  • Recent advances in computer technology have brought more dependence on software to railway systems. Hence, the safety assurance of the vital software running on the railway system is very critical task and yet, not many works have been done. While much efforts have been reported to improve electronic hardware's safety, not so much systematic approaches to evaluate software's safety. In this paper, we suggested an automated analysis tool for S/W change impact in railway system, and presented its result of implementation. The analysis items in the implemented tool had referred to the international standards in relation to the software for railway system, such as IEC 61508 and IEC 62279. In these international standards, 'change impact analysis' for railway system S/W has to be required mandatorily. The proposed tool can be utilized at the assessment stage and also the software development stage.
