Recent heavy rains and typhoons broke down road slopes, which caused a hazard to safety. As a result, interests in the effective investment for disaster prevention is increasing. Measures of investigation method for slope have been taken, but the financial costs have never been analysed. This study applied the cost-benefit analysis theory used in public economics to the evaluation of the financial reasonability of management for slope. By applying cost-benefit analysis to road slope investigation method, the reduction of safety costs and resulting financial benefits can be seen and it also clarifies the reasonability and investment effects of slope management.

Whenever some new measure to promote safety is being considered, one major input into the decision making process is to be some formal assessment of the costs and benefits involved. What levels of safety do many stakeholders believe the railway should deliver? This paper is a contribution to the efforts to answer the question. In this study, under Willing-To-Pay(WTP) based value of preventing a fatality(VPF) approach, we will study how much people are willing to trade off safety against other desirable things, summarize accepted quantitative criteria for safety quantitative criteria for safety decision, describe differences between these criteria and some current risk control actions, and present an outline of work under way to address issues related to cost-benefit analysis(CBA).

Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng) is associated with a variety of therapeutic effects, including antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, vasorelaxative, antiallergic, antidiabetic, and anticancer effects. Accordingly, the use of ginseng has reached an all-time high among members of the general public. However, the safety and efficacy of ginseng in transplant recipients receiving immunosuppressant drugs have still not been elucidated. Transplantation is the most challenging and complex of surgical procedures and may require causation for the use of ginseng. In this regard, we have previously examined the safety, immunological benefits, and protective mechanisms of ginseng with respect to calcineurin inhibitor-based immunosuppression, which is the most widely used regimen in organ transplantation. Using an experimental model of calcineurin inhibitor-induced organ injury, we found that ginseng does not affect drug levels in the peripheral blood and tissue, favorably regulates immune response, and protects against calcineurin inhibitor-induced nephrotoxicity and pancreatic islet injury. On the basis of our experimental studies and a review of the related literature, we propose that ginseng may provide benefits in organ transplant recipients administered calcineurin inhibitors. Through the present review, we aimed to briefly discuss our current understanding of the therapeutic benefits of ginseng related to transplant patient survival.

가압경수로형 원자력발전소 소유자 그룹은 ASME Sec. XI 코드의 배관 샘플링검사법 대안으로 리스크 정보를 활용한 가동중검사 프로그램(RI-ISI)을 개발 및 적용하였다. RI-ISI 프로그램은 파손 메커니즘이 있는 고위험도 배관에 검사를 집중함으로써 발전소의 전반적인 안정성을 향상시켰다. 또한, RI-ISI 프로그램은 비파괴검사 물량, 검사자 방사선 피폭, 검사 시간 등을 줄일 수 있다. 배관 RI-ISI 방법은 한국 표준형 원자력 발전소 3개호기에 적용되고 있으며 다른 발전소도 개발중에 있다. 이 논문에서는 프라마톰형(프랑스형) 원전에 대한 RI-ISI 방법을 연구하고 그 결과를 나타내었다. 프라마톰형 원전에 대한 RI-ISI 적용은 발전소 안전성을 향상시키고 유지시키며 계량화할 수 없는 이익을 준다는 결론에 도달하였다.

The People have a bad perception about diesel vehicle because of serious air pollution, increase fine dust and global vehicle company's diesel gate. Starting the project in 2005, Ministry of Environment has been supporting that is exhaust gas reduction devices (DPF) on diesel vehicles in the metropolitan area. During the period of 2017.01.01 to 2017.12.31, 10,030 diesel vehicles installed exhaust gas reduction devices (DPF). Among them, 9,921 diesel vehicles that they have sufficient data for analysis were analyzed amount of particulate matter reduction before and after exhaust gas reduction devices (DPF) was installed. Opacity smoke meter measures the concentration of particulate matter. So concentration of particulate matter was converted into a mass unit, and then calculated the total amount of reduced particulate matter. It was estimated that social benefits is costs required to remove it from the total amount of particulate matter.

This study was performed to investigate the term effect of fermented milk in drink on rats fed by cholesterol diet. 150 to 5-week-old male rates of Sprague-Dawley strain weer divided into six groups according to diet and content of fermented milk in drink. The first group served as normal control group fed by synthetic pellets of standard diet. The second , cholesterol control group, was treated with standard diet containing 1% of cholesterol and 500000IU/100g of vitamin D2. The other four groups. fermented milk groups, FM-25,FM-50 , FM 75 and FM-100 were treated with the cholesterol and vitamin D2 diet and supplied with 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% of fermented milk in drink , respectively. The animals were sacrificed for analysis in 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. Weight gain, diet intake , and drink consumption were significantly different among groups. Fermented milk reduced serum cholesterol to a significant effect (p<0.05) and significantly increased the ratio of high density lipprotein cholesterol to total cholesterol(p<0.05). Serum triglycerides were reduced to a smaller and less significant effect in fermented milk group. The aorta and liver of fermented milk showed slighter medial calcification and necrosis and milder fat degeneration than did the cholesterol control group. Supplementation of fermented milk may have a helpful effect on hypercholesteremia and atherosclerosis.

Most existing residential environment of disabled people has made them exposed to the risk of safety accidents, and therefore hinders their independent living. In this regard, the importance of desirable residential environment has emerged. Some preceding studies have addressed the characteristics of disabled people's residential environment plan; however, the information on what environmental benefits are offered through such characteristics is insufficient. This study aims to analyze the housing design guidelines for disabled people in respect of the benefit of disabled people who are actual users. In this study, essential design guidelines for disabled people verified through expert workshop panel was analyzed based on user benefit theory. According to the study results, the total guidelines have the most characteristics supporting behavioral facilitation, and mainly consist of physiological maintenance characteristics related to disabled people's health and safety. Also, it is founded that environmental affordance essentially required depending on each spatial function was different. The ratio of physiological maintenance item is high in access route, unlike living room, kitchen and bed room where behavioral facilitation is especially emphasized. These findings can be utilized as basic data for customized residential environment plan to realize residential welfare for disabled people.

The current transportation regime is largely based on two alternatives: (1) fixed route public transit, and (2) private ownership of internal combustion engine (ICE) powered vehicles per households. This paper analyzes one possible transportation alternative, Micro Electric Vehicles or MEVs, and compares with the ICE vehicles in terms of social, economic and environmental benefits, especially emphasizing its environmental advantage over ICE vehicles for future sustainability. While some representative models of MEVs exist in a limited market capacity, but global technical standards are generally insufficient and non-homogenous across nations, which restricts the development of the proposed transportation sector. The focus of this paper is to analyze the characteristics and potential benefits of MEVs in economical and environmental perspectives, including development status and technical standards, with a particular focus in the E.U., the U.S., Japan, and Korea. Based on the data of analysis, this paper aims to derive and propose a cooperative and adaptive global policy framework designed to speed up adoption and expansion of the global MEV market, including passenger and utility vehicles. We propose MEV to be a new mobility segment in the global transportation market because of their advantage in environmental impact, sustainability, overall cost of ownership, and safety.

Formal Safety Assessment (FSA) has been mostly implemented on the hardware aspects of vessels. Although there are guidelines regarding human error FSAs, there have not been many assessments in such areas. To this end, this study seeks to use precedent studies for the safe operation of DP vessels, conducting an FSA regarding human error of DP LOP (Loss of Position) incidents. For this, the study referred to precedent studies for the frequency of DP LOP incidents caused by human errors, adding the severity of LOP incidents, and then applying them to the Bayesian network. As a result, the study was able to confirm that among DP LOP incidents caused by human errors, the drive-off from skill-based errors was 74.3% and the drive-off from unsafe supervision was 50.5%. Based on such results, RCOs (Risk Control Options) were devised through a brainstorming session with experts coming up with proposals including providing mandatory DPO training, installing DP simulator on the vessels, drawing up measures to understanding the procedures for safe operation of DP vessels. Moreover, it was found that mandatory DPO training is reasonable in terms of cost benefits and that while installing a DP simulator is not suitable in terms of cost benefits, it can significantly reduce risks when operating DP vessels.
