The Korean e-Navigation system is a Korean approach to correspond with implementation of IMO e-Navigation. It provides five services, among them SV20 service, a ship remote monitoring system that collects and processes sensor information related to fire, navigation, and seakeeping performance safety. The system also detects abnormal conditions such as fires, capsizing, sinking, navigation equipment failure during navigation, and calculates the safety index and determines the emergency level. According to emergency level, it provides appropriate emergency response guidance for the onboard operator. The fire safety module is composed of three sub-modules; each module is the safety index sub-module, the emergency level determination sub-module and emergency response guidance sub-module. In this study, operational concept of the fire safety module in SV20 service is explained, and fire safety assessment factors are estimated, to calculate the fire safety index. Fire assessment factors included 'Fire detector position factor,' 'Smoke diffusion rate factor,' and 'Fire-fighting facilities factor.'

We found metallic migration phenomena at the fire scene in Printed circuit board (PCB) of LED light equipment which are commonly used. Accordingly we did this study. In order to generate rapidly metallic migration, we experiment the water drop test under low voltage (3.0 V) and a small amount of water condition. As a results of our experiment, we saw the growth of metallic migration of Copper and checked directly short of the PCB between isolated two poles by Cu migration. Finally we saw the shape of dendrite pattern by Cu migration using Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and analyzed that components via Energy dispersive Spectrometer (EDS).

As the contents of crimes become specialized due to the diversification and modernization of modern society, the role of a special judicial police system is becoming important and diverse. Nevertheless, most special judicial police for the fire service, which conducts investigative work, have problems, such as lack of expertise in investigation caused by a lack of manpower, investigation and work due to concurrent fire investigation. Based on the experience gained through the investigation cases of fire crimes, this study suggests improvements of the telegraph restriction system, improvement of the education system, improvement of the education and training system, and the establishment of a dedicated department as measures to improve the actual problems.

This thesis investigated accidents in relation with hazardous materials such as university laboratories in our country. In addition, this thesis investigated how the courses, hazardous materials, are managed, centering on Seoul, Gyeonggi, Busan, Gwangju, Gyeongbuk, and Chungbuk Fire Service Academy as well as National Fire Service Academy, and investigated how the courses, hazardous materials, are managed, centering on the courses in relation with fire service in universities, too. This thesis, also, performed a questionnaire survey on the education in relation with hazardous materials, objecting fire service officers on working who took education in respective provincial fire service academies and National 119 Rescue Services. This thesis analyzed the results of questionnaires, found problems in the current education about hazardous materials, and presented effective learning methods as the courses, hazardous materials, management methods, centering on new experiments. In addition, this thesis tried to present education plans with which people could prevent from the accidents in relation with hazardous materials.

Hyundai Marine & Fire Insurance has achieved its goal of revenue growth while most of insurance companies have failed. It is because Hyundai Marine & Fire Insurance continued to make sincere efforts to increase employee satisfaction. The service-profit chain posits that employee satisfaction is linked to customer satisfaction and to revenue growth. The case shows how Hyundai Marine & Fire Insurance put the service-profit chain to work and how different its internal marketing strategy is.

In this paper, we analyzed the vehicle fire accidents due to damage of vehicle's electrical components, which is applied to a vehicle. In recent development of electrical components technology, approximately 40% of vehicle manufacturing parts have applied electronic circuit technology. Phenomenon such deterioration of insulating performance or electric breakdown on the vehicle's electrical components and printed circuit boards(PCBs) resulted from moisture, contamination and aging due to repetitive operations, lead to the vehicle fire. Therefore, the application of electrical components with adequate electric capacity for vehicle and usage of molding techniques using a non-combustible materials to shut off the oxygen should be applied in order to prevent vehicle fire due to damage of the electrical components and PCBs.

In this paper, study of vehicle fire cases caused by connector and power wiring of anti-lock brake system(ABS) module damage is presented. The purpose of ABS module is to improve braking and steering ability under sudden stop of the vehicle by repeatedly activating and releasing the brake with electric signal via electric control unit. The electric control unit for ABS may experience incomplete contact between power line and signal line or electrical breakdown on the printed circuit board by undergoing repetitive signal change which would consequently result in electrical heat and spark, eventually leading to automotive fire. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to provide fundamental data by analyzing connector and power wiring of ABS module damage conducive to the precise investigation on the cause of vehicle fire.

Japan is a representative state where the volunteer fire brigade consisting of private citizens is well developed although it has an advanced fire fighting system established by local governments. Japan realized the limitation of response by governmental fire fighting system when large-scale natural disasters such as earthquake or typhoon and has developed and promoted several policies to activate the volunteer fire brigade. This study analyzes the policies of the volunteer fire brigade in Japan in detail and suggests policies which can be introduced to activate the volunteer fire brigade in Korea.
