  • Mycotoxins are a group of toxicants giving a risk potential to human health in connection with the daily food intake. Food commodities once contaminated with mycotoxins can not be detoxified by any economic means and prevention was suggested as the only measure. In order to minimize the economic loss and health hazard posed by mycotoxins and toxicoses, systematic and toxicological studies on the subject should be undertaken. Most reports in Korea were concentrated on the mycological studies of relatively easy techniques and the confirmation or quantitation of mycotoxins was rarely done. Research topics to be undertaken in future may be exemplifid below: (1) Establishing assay methods for individual or multi-residue of mycotoxins (2) Monitoring of mycotoxins for suspicious food or feed samples in Korea (3) Epidemiological survey of mycotoxicoses (4) Etiological survey of disease outbreaks associated with mycotoxins (5) Accumulation of testing method and data on the toxicity of mycotoxins (6) Legal regulation to control mycotoxins and development of their detoxification / elimination methods

  • The pantograph for Korean High Speed Train was developed and had been evaluating by through "G7- R&D for home grown high speed train technology". In this study, a relation in mechanical aspect between the train running speed and the current collecting performance of the pantograph is conducted.'for this study, a measuring system for current collecting performance and mechanical characteristics is developed and installed on the prototype Korean High Speed Train, and measurement is conducted while the train runs on the test track. The measuring system is composed of video monitoring system and telemetry & data processing unit. It monitors whether the hazard behavior in the pantograph is occurs or not, and measures acceleration and vertical contact force between the pan head and catenary. Through this study, evaluation of a mechanical vibration characteristics and trend of the pantograph and a interface performance of pantograph - catenary up to 200㎞/h train speed are facilitated.

  • In Korea, most landslides are occurred during the rainy season from June to September and have a shallow failure plane parallel to the slope. For these types of rainfall-induced failures, the most important factors triggering slope unstability is not the increase of pore water pressure but the decrease of the matric suction of unsaturated soils by rainfall infiltration. So it is essential to landslide hazard assessment that defines the characteristics of infiltration in natural slopes. In this study, field measurements have been carried out in order to monitor in-situ volumetric water contents and ground water table, at several depths and locations on a natural slope. The results show that rainfall infiltration is correlated with antecedent water contents, rainfall intensity and total rainfall. The ground water table was varied sensitively by every rainfall event.

  • In many chemical plants the change or modification is carried out without proper technical review and hazard analysis, and also without adequate technical staff and procedures for comprehensive monitoring of potential hazards resulting from the change. Such changes sometimes affect to the process safety badly if it is not managed properly. Therefore, in order to prevent major industrial accidents caused by change or modification, and also in order to apply Management of Change procedure easily in the field and minimize economic burden of company caused by plant changes, K-MOC(KOSHA-Management of Change) software has been developed and provided to the chemical industry.

  • The purpose of the study was to investigate the HACCP systems of contract foodservice establishments by surveying HACCP plans and prerequisite programs from the twelve HACCP-implemented contract foodservice establishments appointed by KFDA. All the subjects (100%) appeared to develop HACCP plans with their own hazard analysis. Except the two giving no response, it turned out that two establishments had 2 CCPs (20%), four had 4∼5 CCPs (40%) and another four had 9 CCPs (40%). Especially, 'cleaning and sanitizing of raw vegetables and fruits (90%)' and 'cooking (temperature) (100%)' were monitored as CCPs by all the subjects. Only one subject (8.3%) answered that continuous monitoring was not conducted. But the verification, record keeping and internal audits were maintained by all the subjects (100%). Most of the surveyed foodservice establishments maintained various prerequisite programs enough to back up HACCP system.

  • This paper propose the safety design of automatic train control system which is used for controlling and monitoring train speed not to excess a permitted speed. Safety activities are shown for the computerized system to achieve a required safety requirement. The safety activities are composed of system dynamic modelling to identify potential hazards contained in the target system, to analyze sub system faults to provoke the hazards. Risks analysis are carried out to estimate losses caused from the hazards to allocate safety requirement. We Proposed design solutions for sub system to meet safety requirement.

  • TLS(Terrestrial Laser Scanning)는 레이저를 이용하여 물체의 3차원 위치 정보를 원격으로 획득할 수 있는 시스템이다. 그러나 TLS로부터 획득한 3차원 위치 정보는 처짐 또는 응력 평가 등에 있어서 구조 정보로서 사용하기에는 한계가 있다. 따라서 정밀한 형상정보의 획득을 위해서는 3차원 형상 좌표 정보에 대한 적절한 데이터 처리가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 구조물에 작용하는 하중 또는 지점 조건에 대한 정보 없이 회기분석의 중첩을 이용하여 TLS로부터 얻은 대상물의 이산화 된 위치 정보로 부터 구조물의 정밀한 변형 형상을 추정할 수 있는 방법을 제시한다.

  • 지난 2008년 가을부터 시작되어 2009년 봄까지 발생했던 전국적인 극한 가뭄을 계기로 가뭄모니터링의 필요성은 증대되었다. 본 연구는 우리나라에서 가뭄 모니터링을 위한 MODIS 위성영상 자료의 활용을 제안하였다. MODIS 영상은 임의의 지역의 시 공간적 특성을 관찰할 수 있는 해상도를 보유하고 있으며, MODIS에서 제공하는 MOD11(LST: Land Surface Temperature)은 가뭄 발생의 판별에는 유효하나 가뭄 심도와 지속기간을 판단하기 위해서는 기준이 되는 강우량 및 가뭄지수와의 비교가 필요하다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 MOD11(LST) 위성자료와 EDI(Effective Drought Index) 가뭄지수의 상관성을 고려하여 한반도 가뭄모니터링을 위한 MODIS 위성영상의 활용성을 평가하였다.
