The primary purpose of the safety management is to prevent the loss of lives or physical damages arising from potential hazards in the railroad signaling system. Since such potential hazards may occur at any time during the system life cycle from design and development to maintenance, safety management activities have to be continuously taken in the course of the system life cycle. The identification of potential hazards is the early step of the safety management. However, such identification activities have to be continued during the system life cycle. Further, they have to be closely linked with system functions to prevent functional problems. This study provides a systematic approach to identification of potential hazards for their tracking and management during the system life cycle to assure the identification and definition of the most appropriate hazards.

This study is intended to estimate influences upon life cycle of ESPE(Electro Sensitive Protective Equipment) which is kinds of commonly used in press in domestic industry. First the field survey is executed to workers and safety managers at work places. In the survey, the main primary factors influenced the lift cycle of ESPE were vibration due to overload work in workplace. Second, int results showed that 37$m/s^2$ acceleration in press work would lead to the life of 132 for 8 hours work per day. Therefore, the vibration of press inflicted significant effect on the lift of ESPE.

For ensuing rolling stock safety, it is necessary that safety management should be made systematically through its whole life cycle. That is to say, safety management activities for every steps of rolling stock life cycle should be defined, and the roles of managers such as executor, assessor, and certificator should be shared clearly. This paper defines the safety management activities based on IEC 62278, analyzing foreign and domestic safety regulation systems, and suggests the reformed safety management system for rolling stock in Korea

This paper introduces the software life-cycle V&V (verification and validation) tasks for the KNICS (Korea nuclear instrumentation and control system) project. The objectives of the V&V tasks are mainly to develop a programmable logic controller (PLC) for safety critical instrumentation and control (I&C) systems, and then to apply the PLC to developing the prototype of an engineered safety features-component control system (ESF-CCS) in nuclear power plants. As preparative works for the software V&V, various kinds of software plans and V&V task procedures have been developed according to the software life-cycle management. A number of software V&V tools have been adopted or developed to efficiently support the V&V tasks. The V&V techniques employed in this work include a checklist-based review and inspection, a requirement traceability analysis, formal verification, and life-cycle based software testing.

Life Cycle Cost analysis technique is introduced to evaluate cost-effectiveness of two paint systems of steel bridges. The systems are a conventional paint system and a galvanized paint system. The all costs during safe lift such as initial cost repainting costs, disposal costs are considered for the lift cycle cost analysis. The NIST model is used and BridgeLCC 1.0 developed by the NST is utilized as the lift cycle cost analysis tool. It is concluded that, in spite of expensive initial cost, the durable paint system may be cost-effective compared with conventional paint system.

This study is intended to propose a systematic and practical life cycle cost(LCC) model for the development of the reliability-based seismic safety and cost-effective performance criteria for design and upgrading of long-span PC bridges. The LCC models consist of five cost functions such as initial cost, repair/replacement cost, human losses, road user cost, and indirect losses of regional economy. The proposed model Is successfully expressed in temrs of Park-Ang damage indices and life cycle damage probability obtained from SMART-DRAIN-2DX which is an existing algorithm for nonlinear time history analysis. The proposed LCC model is successfully applied to a viaduct constructed by PSM, in Seoul. Based on the observations, the proposed systematic procedure for the formulation of LCC model may be useful for the development of the reliability-based seismic safety and cost-effective performance criteria for design and upgrading of long-span PC bridges.

RAMS is becoming increasingly important in the decision making process for the rolling stock projects in order to improve competitiveness by reducing system life cycle cost while improving reliability, availability, maintainability and safety. In order to apply and manage RAMS of rolling stock systems effectively in the operator perspective, it is essential to integrate and control RAMS systematically from the early stage of rolling stock projects. RAMS management is to implement a RAMS system into rolling stock projects in terms of a rolling stock operator, which presents the strategic directions of RAMS policy, objectives, requirements, control, analysis, measurement and improvement throughout life cycle of rolling stock projects. This article presents a new framework of RAMS management that provides an effective and efficient way for managing RAMS in rolling stock systems in the railway industry.
