  • ATP(Automatic Train Protection) system in railroad signalling system is on-board signalling system which is controlled by train control information such as location and speed of trains. Safety is ensured by transmitting the train control information between on-board and wayside device in the ATP system. When an engineer disregards the speed limit on a tachometer, the train is automatically stopped by the on-board device. Recently, the studies of increasing speed of the train have been developed. Eurobalise in ERTMS/ETCS system is used in case that speed of trains is up to 500[km/h]. A study of safety braking distance is needed by increasing the speed of train in the ATP system. Train data and track data are required to calculate the safety braking distance. The train data includes formations of trains, length of trains, service brake and emergency brake etc. Also, the track data includes slope of track, curve of track, length of track, speed limit etc. In this paper, the speed profile is computed by analyzing the train and track data in the ATP system. It is demonstrated by applying to subway line 2 in Seoulmetro through the on-site test.

  • Tideland Reclamation Projects, which have played a significant role in selfsuffficieny of food in Korea, are being greatly restricted nowadays in their implementation due to their demands of big amount of construction costs and their severe malfunctioning of contaminat-ing the marine environment. Under the situation, this paper was prepared not only to stimulate the Government to continue the imlementation of new tideland reclamation projects, but also to contribute to the development of tideland reclamation technology by which the construction costs and rnalfunctionings could be minimized. Eventhough, the functioning of filters is considered to be important for the safety of seadikes, their planning and design are being made unreasonably In view point of construc-tion cost and strutural safety. Therefore, a reliable planning and design method for filters is presented in this paper on the basis of filter theory. In this way, we professional engineers corncerned should endeavor to develop more ad-vanced technology, by which the Government would implement the tideland reclamation projects continuously to supply the land and water more steadily in time.

  • This paper deals with investigation on the spot for grounding systems of buildings based on international standards at construction sites. The investigation was carried out for grounding method, grounding type, shape of grounding electrode, grounding for a lightning protection system, continuity of steelwork in reinforced concrete structures, etc. The investigation on the spot was performed by a researcher and engineer with over fifteen years of industry experience all over the country. As a result of the investigation on the spot in 13 buildings, common grounding and structure grounding methods were dominant. The safety improvement methods include installation of equipotential bonding conductors for the connection to the main earthing terminal, equipotential bonding conductors for supplementary bonding, use of Surge Protective Devices (SPD), and safe connections between earthing conductors and the rebar.

  • At the end of last year, Korean nuclear power plants, APR-1400 and a research reactor have been contracted to build plants at United Arab Emirates and Jordan. Since 1959, a historical background of nuclear technologies in Korea is summarized. The safety requirements for Instrumentation and Control (I&C) systems in Nuclear Power Plants (NPP) are discussed. Specific descriptions on the typical safety classification of I&C systems, the definitions of the electrical class 1E and the countermeasures against common caused failures are provided. And summaries of typical I&C systems such as the protection systems, the control systems, the instrumentations, the monitoring systems and a control room in NPP are introduced. Strict requirements on the development of the digital computer systems in nuclear applications are described.

  • We develop methods for propagating and analyzing EPCI(Extended Process Capability Index) by using the error type that classifies into accuracy and precision. EPCI developed in this study can be applied to the three combined processes that consist of production, measurement and calibration. Little calibration work discusses while a great deal has been studied about SPC(Statistical Process Contol) and MSA(Measurement System Analysis). EPCI can be decomposed into three indexes such as PPCI(Production Process Capability Index), PPPI(Production Process Performance Index), MPCI(Measurement PCD, and CPCI(Calibration PCI). These indexs based on the type of error classification can be used with various statistical techniques and principles such as SPC control charts, ANOVA(Analysis of Variance), MSA Gage R&R, Additivity-of-Variance, and RSSM(Root Sum of Square Method). As the method proposed is simple, any engineer in charge of SPC. MSA and calibration can use efficientily in industries. Numerical examples are presentsed. We recommed that the indexes can be used in conjunction with evaluation criteria.

  • The study on prevention measures for vibration and excavation of tunnel for the #3, #4, Seoul Subway. In the Seoul subway tunnel blasting, the drilling pattern and prevention method to seismic vibration are as follows as well as for adaptions of NATM, the supportings of roof and wall holes are arranged with control blasting. 1. The blasting is executed basically using the low velocity explosive such as slurry, Nitrate ammonium explosive, and F-I and F-II explosive for control blasting substituting of existing dynamite. 2. The cut holes are arranged with burn cut pattern and also must be arranged with M/S electrical delay caps substituting of ordinary do]ay caps. 3. Jack leg drills are used in Five Job sites and a jumbo drill in one job site. 4. In performance of safety work and in maintenance of building safety. The drilling length for blasting will not exceed 1.20 meter for round so that the vibration value shall carry below 0.3cm/sec. The harmonizing of better powder, better drilling machine and better technique is only the way of improving tunnelling efficiency and less vibration will help the dereasing of accidence.
