Since a few years ago, great disasters have often took place in domestic and abroad, such as Sampoong Department store collapse, Sea-land disaster accident, Incheon Hof fire accidents. Whenever a lot of accidents occurred such as fire, gas explosion, traffic accident, mountain accident, various disease, people required 119 first aid service. As the result, even for the last year, average 2,608 person per day were temporary treated and carried to near hospital by 119 system. But first-aid team or first grade EMT(emergency medical technician) that should provide high quality service and save important lives, might have negatively treated or made their duty only for simple transfer, when they were imminent of emergency case in every kinds of accident spot. Because they worried about medical dispute for "task restriction for EMT" decided by medical laws or rules of first aid. So it was proposed that "task restriction for EMT" should be mitigated or released in the possible range on this occasion.

The LPG station's explosion at Bucheon city was a major accident which with rare frequency of occurrence but large damage effect. Therefore, to prevent similar accident in the future from LPG chargings stations which located at inner urban area, it needs to identify the damage effects of such facilities by comparing theoretically quantities risks-PHAST. The BLEVE effects from the accident showed similar level in case of heat flux, however, the over pressure level reflected at reduced distance. The structure damage to the nearby area showed comparatively large reduction of concrete strength and shape changes through by heat effect while the overpressure effect was small.

The importance of the concept of safety culture has increased in the security of high-risk facility after Chernobyl accident in 1986. This paper elaborated the concept of safety culture and its main factors by Causal Loop Diagram. Due to the decline of safety culture, the occurrence of incidents and accidents require more and more corrective actions to the members of high-risk facilities and thereby increasing their workloads. Employees who must complete the task within the given time have to have time pressures and don't comply with the rules and procedures. Also, a schedule pressure is a big stress for employees, causing mistakes in precision work. In order to improve these problems, CLD of the safety culture in this paper suggests hiring more workers, re-allocation of given workloads and strengthen the learning, communication capabilities and safety leadership. In addition, the two real accident cases were analyzed to test the feasibility of the System Dynamic simulation model through the process of structuring the fault trees on the stationary black out accident in Kori unit 1 in South Korea and Kleen Energy power station explosion in US. The simulation results show that the various safety factors cause the serious accident combined with mechanical failure and safety culture will reduce the possibility of the accidents in these high-risk organizations. This simulation model can contribute to analyzing the impact of the organizational and human factors of safety culture and can provide the alternatives in high-risk facilities.

Release of hazardous and flammable gas is a significant contributor to risk. The ignition of flammable gas clouds can lead to explosion accidents in the offshore installations. A gas detector, which is one of active protect systems, brings the module into a safe state through emergency shut down processes and reduces the damage by eliminating the dangerous releases. It is critical to understand the gas release, the wind field, and the complex geometry of installations to determine gas detector placement. In this paper, the Gas detector Location Index (GLI) which is a novel index for optimal detector location determination to efficiently prevent explosion accident using probabilistic approach.

The utilization of LPG(Liquefied Petroleum Gas) is increasing as an environmental-friendly fuel in all countries making green growth new paradigm, and use of gas is spread fast as motor fuels to decrease air pollution. Loss of lives by explosion and fire is happening every year as gas use increases, and gas accident in large scale storage property is causing serious problems socially. To minimize this problem, underground containment type storage tank is being presented as an alternative recently. In this study, to minimize explosion occurrence in underground containment type storage tank, the suitable storage tank is designed to consider explosion prevention that makes exposure surface area minimize in confined contents volume and flame to construct storage tank by the most suitable condition in the underground containment room. As a result of the design of storage tank having the most suitable condition by this research, underground containment space was minimized on diameter 3m, length 4.83m in 20 tons storage tank and its safety was improved as exposure surface area in flame decreased by 89.4%, compared with the existent storage tank.

보통 가정이나 건물에서 화재 및 가스에 의한 사고 중에 가스의 폭발에 의한 사고는 폭발과 동시에 발생하는 압력 때문에 발생하는 건물의 붕괴로서 많은 인명피해 및 재산상의 손해를 가져온다. 이와 같은 2차적인 피해를 막기 위해 본 연구에서는 건물의 폭발시 발생하는 개구부의 크기 및 형태에 따른 모델을 선정하여 건물의 체적대비 개구부 면적에 따른 압력변화를 실험을 통하여 개구부의 면적 비를 도출하였으며, 개구부 형태에 따른 압력실험을 통하여 최소의 압력으로 피해을 막을 수 있는 모델을 선정하였다. 이를 이용하여 건물의 설계시 안전율을 고려하여 개구부의 면적 및 형태를 선정함으로써 2차 피해를 예방할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Blast Hardened Bulkhead (BHB) is an important measure that can increase the ship's survivability as well as protect the lives of the crew by mitigating the damage extent caused by an internal explosion in the ship. In particular, both the pressure and the shock impulse should be considered when designing the BHB against reflected shock waves having a high pressure with a short duration. This study proposes a design method for BHB that considers both the pressure and the shock impulse generated during the internal explosion. In addition, analysis and design concepts for accident loads such as explosion, fire, and collision of NORSOK and DNVGL, one of the international design guidelines for the curtain plate type blast hardened bulkhead type applied by the Korean Navy, are utilized. If this method is applied, it is expected that it can be used as a design concept for the pressure as well as the shock impulse of the explosion load of the curtain plate.

화학산업이 발전함에 따라 잠재적인 화학물질 폭발사고 위험 또한 증가하고 있다. 순식간에 치명적인 인명, 재산피해를 남기는 폭발에 대한 영향을 예측, 분석하기 위해 다양한 해석모델이 활용되고 있지만, 폭발의 물리적 특성상 다양한 형태의 건물이 밀집된 지역에 대해서는 해석모델 사용만으로 높은 정확도의 분석을 진행하기에는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 GIS 공간정보와 3D 폭발 시뮬레이션의 약결합 방식을 적용하였다. 실제 연구지역과 동일한 환경을 구현하여 시뮬레이션을 구동하였고 이에 따른 폭발 규모와 폭발에 노출된 대상별 가해지는 압력 값을 도출하였다. TNT를 기준으로 위험물 저장 및 취급시설에 대한 최저 기준인 지정수량 200kg을 적용하였음에도 최대 2,960kPa의 압력이 발생하는 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구로 도출된 결과에 건축물의 용도와 중요도를 적용한다면 토지이용계획 및 공간활용에 반영할 수 있으며, 안전관리자로 하여금 리스크 평가, BC분석, 안전관리계획 수립 등에 활용 가능하다고 사료된다.

산업현장에서 폭발성가스의 사용이 꾸준이 증가 함에 따라 작업자는 물론 일반지역주민들에까지 사고로 인한 생명에 위험을 처하기도 한다. 수소사용공정에서의 사고피해는 공정자체에 국한 되는 것이 아니라 대형화재나 폭발로 이어져 다수의 사상자를 유발시키므로 사고의 유형과 원인을 규명하고 피해규모를 예측하여 이에 대한 안전대책을 수립, 운영하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 MLCC(Multi Layer Ceramic Capacitor) 소성공정의 수소저장 사용시설에서 화재 폭발시 위험범위를 예측하였다. 실제 사고데이터의 분석결과 사고발생빈도가 가장 많은 배관누출에 대하여 사고 피해예측 시나리오 모델로 선정, 적용하였다. 10 mm Hole에서 120 Bar의 압력으로 수소가스 누출시 Jet fire가 발생되며 Radiation Level 4($kw/m^2$)의 경우 최대 12.45 m까지 복사열의 영향을 주었다. 또한 사고피해 예측을 통한 안전성확보와 개선방안을 제시하였다.

산업현장에서 취급되거나 가공되는 원료의약품 분진의 폭발 위험성은 항상 존재하며, 이로 인한 폭발사고가 자주 발생되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 원료의약품 시료 3종의 분진폭발특성을 측정하였다. 주요 폭발특성 측정값은 록소프로펜산은 평균 입경이 $5.31{\mu}m$이며, $P_{max}$는 8.4 bar, 최소점화에너지는 1 mJ < MIE < 3 mJ이며 최소점화온도는 $550^{\circ}C$이다. 클로피도그렐 캄포르술폰산염은 평균 입경이 $95.63{\mu}m$이며, $P_{max}$는 7.9 bar, 최소점화에너지는 30 mJ < MIE < 100 mJ이며 최소점화온도는 $510^{\circ}C$이었다. 리팜피신은 평균 입경이 $26.48{\mu}m$이며 $P_{max}$는 7.9 bar, 최소점화에너지는 1 mJ < MIE < 3 mJ이며 최소점화온도는 $470^{\circ}C$로 나타났다. 이들 값을 적용하여 폭연지수($K_{st}$)와 폭발지수(EI)의 폭발위험등급을 구하고, 원료의약품 분진의 폭발 위험성을 비교 검토하였다. 그 결과 폭발 위험성은 록소프로펜산과 리팜피신의 폭발등급은 St 2이고 폭발위험등급은 severe이며, 클로피도그렐 캄포르술폰산염의 폭발등급은 St 1이고 폭발위험등급은 strong으로 나타났다.
