One of the most important missons that are imposed on merchant ship at sea is to accomplish the safe transportation of cargo loaded. Recently, a study on the seakeeping performance has been carried out on the development of evaluation system related to the synthetic safety of a ship at sea. The seakeeping performance is the ship's ability sailing at, and executing its misson against adverse environmental factors successfully and safely. Until now, however, there has not been any method of quantitative evaluation on the dynamic safety of the ship's cargo loaded. In this regards, this paper has introduced the evaluation method of dynamic safety of the ship's cargo. In order to evaluate the dynamic safety of cargo, the vertical and lateral acceleration which causes the collapse, racking and local structure failure of cargo was adopted as the evaluation factors in the ship's motions. The response amplitude of ship's motions in regular waves is manipulated by NSM (New Strip Method) on a given 2,700 TEU full container vessel under the wind forces of 7, 8 and 9 Beaufort scale. Each response of ship's motions induced by NSM was applied to short-crested irregular waves for stochastic process on evaluation factors and then vertical and lateral acceleration of each cargo was compared with significant amplitude of each acceleration. A representative dangerous factor was determined by comparing permissible values of stacking and racking forces occurred typically to the vertical and transverse directions with the container strength required on ISO 1496 at the positions of forecastle, poop and ship's midship respectively. Through the occurrence probability of the determined factor by Rayleigh's probability density function, the dangerousness which limits loads on container's side wall as an evaluation was applied in judging of the danger of the ship's cargo loaded.

Load resistance factors for the limit state design of vertical caisson breakwaters are presented. Reliability analysis of 16 breakwaters in nationwide ports was conducted to calculate the partial safety factors and they were converted into load and resistance factors. The final load resistance factor was calibrated by applying the optimization technique to the individually calculated load resistance factors. Finally, the breakwater was redesigned using the optimal load resistance factor and verified whether the target level was met. The load resistance factor according to the change of the target reliability level is presented to facilitate the limit state design of breakwater.

A vertical curve should be installed in straight section. In case, it be installed on horizontal curved section, safety factor go down. In this study, it is calculated that the deficiency of cant about vertical curve radius on horizontal curved section. The result of this study will be used on planning the tack layout of railroad and design the track construction.

The vertical roller mill is the important machine grinding and mixing various crude materials in the manufacturing process of portland cement. Table liner is one of grinding elements of vertical roller mill and is subjected to the cyclic bending stress by rollers load and the centrifugal force by rotation of table. It demands $4{\times}10^7$ cycle but has $4{\times}10^6{\sim}8{\times}10^6$ cycle. It fractures at the edge of grinding path of outside roller. The repair expense for it amounts to $30\%$ of total maintenance of vertical roller mill. Therefore, this study shows the fracture mechanism of table liner for vertical roller mill using HDM and fatigue analysis and makes the estimation for safety of vertical roller mill.

Numerical analysis of slope stability is presented using slice method, static seismic analysis methods, and earthquake response analysis methods. Static seismic force is considered as 0.2g while vertical static seismic force is not considered in analysis. For earthquake response analysis, Hachinohe-wave is applied. Safety factor calculated using slice method for failure surface. Calculating methods are Bishop's method and Janhu's method. Static seismic analysis was applied using Mhor-Coulomb model and earthquake response analysis was applied using non-linear elastic model.

This study was to secure the safety of poor appearance distribution concrete poles effectively and to reduce the replacement costs of them by developing a soundness evaluation index. The researcher of this study investigated poor appearance types of concrete pole, collected 53 of test samples, and tested pole strength. As a result of strength test, only 17 percent of poor appearance concrete poles were below 2.0 of safety factor spec. As results of multiple regression analysis, it is verified that surface air void, horizontal crack, net-shaped crack, elapsed year, vertical crack, and deterioration in concrete compressive strength have statistically negative effects on safety factor of concrete poles in a significant level. The researcher set up a soundness evaluation index by using multiple regression equation, and suggested that poor appearance concrete poles should be replaced or reinforced only in case of soundness evaluation score of 150 or above.

The important factor to evaluate the running safety of a railway vehicle would be the interaction force between wheel and rail(derailment coefficient), for which is one of important factors to check the running safety of a railway vehicle that may cause a tragic accident. In this paper, analysis of coupling term between vertical load and lateral load for install load cell to wheel-set. This result is going to be utilized in formality that verify running safety of tilting vehicles.

The safety evaluation of horizontal and vertical bolted connection between PHC piles is presented. The numerical analysis model is constructed using the commercial finite element program, ABAQUS, in which 3D solid element is used to model all the connection devices. The actual bolted connection is idealized by the contact and tie condition given in ABAQUS. Through the finite element analysis, the compression, tensile, bending and shear behaviors of PHC pile connection were analyzed. The safety factor based on Von-Mises and yield stress was calculated for the safety evaluation of each connection devices.

Some methods were proposed to predict lateral flow due to embankments for road constructions on soft grounds, in which vertical drains were placed. In order to investigate the prediction methods of lateral flow, 200 field monitoring data for embankments in thirteen road construction sites at western and southern coastal areas of the Korean Peninsula were analyzed. For analyzing the relationship between the safety factor of embankment slope and the horizontal displacement in soft grounds where horizontal drain mats were placed, it was reliable to apply the maximum horizontal displacement in soft ground instead of the horizontal displacement at ground surface. The maximum horizontal displacement was developed less than 50mm in fields where the safety factor of slope was more than 1.4, while the one was developed more than 100mm in fields where the safety factor of slope was less than 1.2. In safe fields where the maximum horizontal displacement were developed within 50mm, lateral flow would not happen since shear deformation was not appeared. On the other hand, shear failure would happen in the fields where the maximum horizontal displacement were developed more than 100mm. In such fields, embankments might be continued after some appropriate countermeasures should be prepared. Safe embankments can be performed on soft grounds, in which the stability number is less than 3.0 and the safety factor for bearing is more than 1.7. However, if the stability number is more than 4.3 and the safety factor for bearing is less than 1.2, shear deformation would begin and even shear failure would happen.

In this paper, heaving phenomenon is analyzed by laboratory tests. A laboratory test is consist of building soft clay foundation in plane-strain soil tank, construction of retaining wall, and excavation work. And range of shear strain, and destruction shape about soft clay foundation is compared, and analyzed with results of proposal formula. Using this study, safety factor is suggested for heaving phenomenon in the construction of wall on the soft clay. Actual theory is suggested by this suggested safety factor. There are various proposal formula for heaving phenomenon. For example, Terzaghi & Peck, Tschebotarioff, Bjerrum & Eide(Experience formula) and so on. Terzaghi & Peck's proposal formula is chosen, compared with laboratory test's result and analyzed in this study. A soft clay used in study is assumed homogeneous. A Depth of foundation is enough to observe shear strain by heaving phenomenon. Retaining wall is enough hard not to have vertical displacement.
