  • To investigate the nexus between urban population, gross capital formation, and economic growth in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, yearly data was collected from the World Bank for the period 1974- 2018. Basic statistics test and correlation matrix was used to investigate the causal effect among the tested parameters, followed by Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) stationary test, co-integration analysis by Johansen test after that Vector Auto-Correction Model for both short-run and long-run and finally the Granger-Causality tests. Result of unit root test analysis shows that the urban population became stationary at I (0) level while economic growth and gross capital formation became stationary at I (1). Johansen co-integration analysis indicates that there is presence of both long-run and short-run relationship between the three variables in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The result of the VECM Model reflects that both economic growth and gross capital formation have a negative impact on urban population in the short run. According to the Granger-Causality tests, there is unidirectional causality with the urban population by both gross capital formation and economic growth. Also, the result of the Granger Causality tests show that there is unidirectional causality between economic growth and gross capital formations.

  • The following research has focused and implemented on designing a system that classifies the severity of mass casualty situations across both normal and disaster levels. The system's algorithm has implemented requirements such as accuracy as well as user convenience. The developed e-Triage System has applied various severity classification algorithms implemented from IoT concepts. In order to overcome flaws of currently used severity classification systems, the e-Triage System used electronic elements including the NFC module. By using the mobile application's severity classification algorithm the system demonstrated quick and accurate assessment of patient. Four different LED lamps visualized the severity classification results and RTS scores were portrayed through FND(Flexible Numeric Display) after a two wave classification.

  • The volume of insurance business of Korea is now ranked 6th in the world. In spite of the rapid growth of the volume of the Korean insurance market, the growth of quality and technology of Korean insurance business has not reached on the top position. And the role of actuaries in Korea does not come up to the standard of the advanced economies due to the total lack of good actuarial science programs in Korea. In this paper, we consider a few desirable actuarial science programs for both undergraduate and graduate level and show concrete examples of curriculums useful in Korean universities. The curriculums are designed to help students to pass the four exams of Society of Actuaries and Casualty Actuarial Society and to get credits for Validation by Educational Experience (VEE). At the same time our curriculums can cover the contents of Korean actuarial exams. We also consider the actuarial internship programs.

  • Flight safety analysis, which includes risk estimation for the various abnormal flight modes in addition to normal flight, has to be performed necessarily to guarantee launch safety for the operation of space launch vehicles. For this purpose, a dedicated system has been developed such that all the necessary repetitive computations, result reports, and graphical presentations can be performed inside a single system for user convenience. In addition, the developed system is capable of representing computed results on a three dimensional Earth for the realistic presentation. The developed Flight Safety Analysis System will be employed for the launch operation of Korea Satellite Launch Vehicle-I.

  • The number of collapse accidents relevant to form support since 2003 is 30 on the basis of statistical data from Ministry of Employment and Labor,. Total number of casualty was 138 (47 for deaths and 91 for injuries). The accident severity rate was high because the 4.6 casualties per one accident were occurred averagely although the incident rate was relatively low. Especially, one of form support members, the pipe supports have not been equipped adequately so that the accidents could have happened. In this regard, this study performed buckling test related to the effect of horizontal connection and slope in the single pipe which is one of typical pipe supports. The buckling load, which was estimated from the single pipe with the horizontal connectors theoretically and experimentally, was increased as more than 2 times compared to the buckling load obtained from the pipe supports without the connector. The buckling load was reduced as more than 26%, 34% slope of the single pipe comparing with 5% and 10% slope, respectively. Thus, the purpose of this study is to provide the guideline for installation and the maintenance of the pipe supports legally and institutionally to prevent the collapse accidents of the pipe supports.

  • Fire or electrical problem while DC electric traction vehicle operation caused by various reasons can lead to not only suspension of the operation, but also severe aftermath such as massive casualty. In this paper, fire analysis on DC electric traction vehicle caused by electrical breakdown on line breaker, which is in connection with the power supply, is presented. When the electric arc, the by-product of frequent line breaker operation, is not fully diminished, it leads to electrical breakdown and fire. Especially, electrical breakdown can be easily induced by the open-and-close operation of inner contractor inside line breaker, eventually followed by ground fault and generation of transient current. Electric arc is consequent on the ground fault and acts as possible ignition source, leading to fire. Also, during the repetitive operation of the line breaker, the contactor is separated each other and some copper powder is generated, and the copper powder provided breakdown path, resulting in fire.

  • The efficiency tests of automatic positioning transmitter (APT) using satellite on life jacket were carried out to minimize casualties of fishermen and to make system optimization for effective SAR (Search and Rescue) operation. As the result of the tests, average position was equaled on the comparison between SPOT using low earth orbit satellite and DGPS (Differential Global Positining System), but standard deviation of DGPS for latitude and longitude were 66.4% and 46.3% smaller than those of SPOT. The position precision of SPOT was almost two times lower than LGT using geostationary satellite to compare 95% circular error probability. However, the success rate of receiver for SPOT was revealed as 86.5~94.1% on the experiments in the South Sea and the West Sea and it was 4.5 times higher than LGT. Therefore, SPOT is expected to contribute greatly to the rapid rescue of victim.

  • According to the recent statistics of marine casualties in Korea, fishing boats are more likely to be ended in the casualties, and small fishing boats especially cause much more accidents in sinking and capsizing than any other big vessels. These casualties were mainly produced from the ignorance on the lack of own ship stability. From this view, this study aims to analyze the characteristics of stability on the crab trap fishing boat receiving transverse wave by means of carrying out the water tank test. The rolling angle of the model ship was affected largely with the displacement and the wave period of it, and the trends were shown that the magnitude of the angle was proportional to the displacement, but inversely to the wave period. And the wave height had effect on the rolling angle just in the specific range of the wave period. The force of steady wind didn't have influence on the rolling variation significantly.
