It is a well known fact that LCD is a central part of the IT industry which is important in the present and the future. But the biggest problem of LCD manufacturing is maintaining a cleaning room environment and administration. Therefore the purpose of this study is to first, prevent the yield depreciation and damage of products, and second, protect the worker ftom accidental electrostatic discharge during LCD manufacture. The soft x-ray ionizer is a type of electrostatic reducer device. It protects against electrostatic discharge in the cleaning room environment and is a necessary environmental factor during LCD production. The positive aspects of the soft x-ray are its shorter time and wider angle of exposure. But the negative aspect of the soft x-ray is its need for several shielding of protection from the harmful x-ray exposure. On this study, the development of the Air Nozzle-type ionizer to amend and refine some problems. For example, examined the electrostatic reduce device of a soft x-ray type and discovered the ion did not go inside well. also workers to be free from danger. An Air Nozzle-type ionizer is comprised of soft x-ray radiation and ionized air production. Air is injected through the nozzle after being ionized from radiation. It supplies air keeping the same pressure into the end foundation of ion production. The soft x-ray is the structure which radiates ionized air through the nozzle (21 holes) having micro holes of the ionizable radiation after ionizing the inside air by the ion production. A worker does not need a cover to protect against x-rays and the Air Nozzle-type ionizer is easy to set up and is more effective at eliminating electrostatic.

Well-established standards and specifications for medical devices not only provide clarity and consistency in licensing processes but also secure device safety and effectiveness. This study reviewed regulatory standards and specifications for veterinary medical devices in Korea based on data obtained through analyses of those medical devices. General standards for electromechanical, electromagnetic, and biological safety and individual standards for 76 electric and 70 general medical device products have been established by the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. However, the first standards and specifications for veterinary medical devices were established in March 2000 for two products (disposable needle and syringe). Similar to the large number of standards for medical devices, there have been general standards for safety and individual standards for 72 veterinary medical devices (27 electric medical devices, 12 non-electric medical devices, 10 medical supplies, and 23 other types) established since 2014. These new standards considered, among other aspects, the devices' applications, usage characteristics, and industrial environment. To date, the establishment of standards and specifications for veterinary medical devices remains limited. This study suggests that improvements should be made to the regulation of general and individual standards associated with various veterinary medical instruments, supplies, and in vitro diagnostic medical reagents.

In this study, we analyzed the next generation ITS (C-ITS) technology trends, focusing on the national and international C-ITS projects. Based on the promotion practices of developed countries, we pointed out the lack of linkages with the existing ITS infrastructure. As a way to overcome this problem, we proposed the three-direction to enable the existing ITS infrastructure corresponding to the C-ITS. First one is developing a technique to improve the performance of the existing ITS infrastructure and automate the performance management (Performance-enhanced ITS). Second, developing active sensors or fusion sensor which along with V2X communication technology implement of an active safety driving support system (Safety-enhanced ITS). Third, we need to develop a technology that generate the new advanced traffic data by integrating the collected data from existing ITS infrastructure and nomadic device (Cloud-ITS). By improving the function of the existing ITS infrastructure for adaptation to the new V2X communication environment, we enhanced the efficiency of maintenance performance and would maximize the benefit of the introduction of C-ITS.

Objective : Endovascular treatment of large, wide-necked intracranial aneurysms by coil embolization is often complicated by low rates of complete occlusion and high rates of recurrence. A flow diverter device has been shown to be safe and effective for the treatment of not only large and giant unruptured aneurysms, but small and medium aneurysms. However, in Korea, its use has only recently been approved for aneurysms <10 mm. This study aims to compare the safety and efficacy of flow diversion and coil embolization for the treatment of unruptured aneurysms ≥7 mm. Methods : The participants will include patients aged between 19 and 75 years to be treated for unruptured cerebral aneurysms ≥7 mm for the first time or for recurrent aneurysms after initial endovascular coil embolization. Participants assigned to a flow diversion cohort will be treated using any of the following devices : Pipeline Flex Embolization Device with Shield Technology (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA), Surpass Evolve (Stryker Neurovascular, Fremont, CA, USA), and FRED or FRED Jr. (MicroVention, Tustin, CA, USA). Participants assigned to a coil embolization cohort will undergo traditional endovascular coiling. The primary endpoint will be complete occlusion confirmed by cerebral angiography at 12 months after treatment. Secondary safety outcomes will evaluate periprocedural and post-procedural complications for up to 12 months. Results : The trial will begin enrollment in 2022, and clinical data will be available after enrollment and follow-up. Conclusion : This article describes the aim and design of a multi-center, randomized, open-label trial to compare the safety and efficacy of flow diversion versus traditional endovascular treatment for unruptured cerebral aneurysms ≥7 mm.

This study investigated the probability of possible accident through qualitative and quantitative analysis of the pressure safety valve types installed in facilities using high pressure gas to compare the installation domestic and foreign pressure safety valve standards sought the safety characteristics and safety improvement direction accordingly. The three types are the case where the shut-off valve is not installed at the front of the PSV (Case A), If a shut-off valve is installed at the front of the PSV for inspection (Case B) and If a shut-off valve is installed in front of PSV (C.S.O), PSV is installed in parallel (Case C). Three types of cases were compared with FTA and HAZOP. The results of study of the possible accidents due to over-pressure safety valve installation type, used in a high-pressure gas facilities was shows in the following order Case B > Case A > Case C. The results of analysis through FTA was in order to protect the reservoir for the possible occurring of accident the safety valve installation is depend on its type. In the FTA analysis, defects in the device itself which attached to the storage tank as a substitute for analysis of the probability of operator mistakes was Case B with as high as $2.01{\times}10^{-6}$. Depending on the type of installation analysis of Case B in order to ensure safety is prohibited to install shut-off valve and believes that mandatory regulations are needed. Rationally installing of pressure safety valve in the high pressure using facilities will be expected to improve the industrial safety from severe accidents such as high-pressure gas fire explosion.

Zigbee는 단말에 대한 경제성이 뛰어나고 저 전력통신을 이용하기 때문에 수명이 길다. Mesh, Tree, Star 등 다양한 방식의 토플리지 구조를 지원 하며 확장성이 뛰어나 군사적인 용도, 환경 모니터링 시스템 등 많은 분야에 사용되고 있다. 최근 스마트그리드환경을 구축함에 있어 Zigbee는 HAN(Home Area Network)에 표준으로 사용될 예정이며 현재는 Zigbee를 이용한 AMR(Automatic Meter Reading)을 시범 중에 있다. 일반적으로 ZIgbee Network은 ZC(Zigbee Coordinator), ZCH(Zigbee Cluster Head), ZE(Zigbee End Device) 3가지로 구성되며, Zigbee Network에서 발생할 수 있는 취약점은 허가되지 않은 디바이스의 접근, 라우터의 흐름을 조작하는 방법, ZC(Zigbee Coordinator)와 ZE(Zigbee End Device)사이의 키 전송 시 안전하지 않은 채널을 이용하여 전송되는 문제가 발생된다. 본 논문에서는, TCP(Third Party Center)를 이용함으로써, ZE와 ZC간의 키 생성 시 발생하는 취약점을 보완하였다. 또한 인증절차를 강화함으로써 ZE(Zigbee End Device)에서 발생 할 수 있는 취약점을 보완하고자 하였으며 RS(Register Server)를 이용하여 HAN에 존재하는 디바이스에 대하여 실시간 모니터링이 가능하게 하였다.
