Purpose: Ministry of Environment statistics reveals more than 132 fire·explosion accidents in South Korea between 2014 and 2023. Among them, fire and/or explosion accidents are very impactive in their scale and consequence. This study aims to suggest a new method of reasonable way to calculate the ventilation rate of indoor facility handling hazardous chemicals based on their inflammability. Method: A new method to calculate the ventilation rate is based on the physicochemical properties of the chemicals handled, which is more reasonable compared with the current regulation based only on the floor area of the facility. Result: Considering the physicochemical properties, 178 chemicals based on their inflammability were studied and 168(94%) met the criteria for the current regulation. Some materials have been shown to require too much or too little ventilation rate. Conclusion: Through this study, a reasonable method of calculating the required ventilation rate was proposed. This should be applied to ensure the safety of workers to deal chemicals.

Sustainability, in general, means the protection of environmental resources and economic prosperity, with the consideration of the social, economic and environmental effect, as well as human health and the enhancement of life. Profound consideration about sustainability has to handle the overall cycle of feedstock, resource extraction, transportation and production in addition to the environmental effect. Sustainable development of the chemical industries should be carried out complementarily by strengthening the chemical process safety of the industries. In this respect, chemical process safety can be called an opportunity to enhance the compatibility internationally. Changing new paradigm in chemical process safety is formed from the overall life cycle considering basic design of existing systems and production processes. To improve the chemical process safety, the integrated smart system is necessary, comprising various chemical safety database and knowledge base and improved methods of quantitative risk analysis, including management system. This paper discussed the necessity of overall life cycle in chemical process safety and proposed new technology to improve the sustainability. To develop the sustainable industries in process systems engineering, three S, which include Safety, Stability and Security, will have to be combined appropriate.

Purpose: This study aims to strengthen the linkage between the construction site and the headquarters, suggest the direction of building an integrated smart platform that can actually be operated and utilized in the field, and effectively implement safety management. Method: Agile methodologies were applied to build a flexible and scalable system through cloud-based and three-tier architectures. Functional requirements were set through an on-site survey, and design and construction were carried out by reflecting personal information protection and legal requirements. Result: The integrated smart platform proposed in this study strengthens the connection between the site and the headquarters to maximize the effect of safety accident prevention and safety management. This system has improved the safety awareness of workers and managers, and has realized more efficient safety management through a unified communication system. Conclusion: In the establishment of an integrated smart platform, it is essential to reflect the characteristics of the site when selecting the development method and establishing the function plan. In the basic design and detailed design stages, it is necessary to establish security measures, design mobile functions, and review device expansion, and consider enterprise-wide safety management, user convenience, and scalability. It is also important to maintain and improve the system, reflect legal requirements, and support the elderly and foreign workers. By strengthening personal information and CCTV security and continuously improving it by reflecting user opinions, it can be expected to activate an integrated smart platform.

It is reported that about 20 % of all fires in Korea are caused by the electric equipment and installations. In complex and large-scale buildings, the sizes of electric fires are becoming larger as property damage and casualties increase. Among the causes of various electric fires, fire by short circuit accounts for about 71.5% of overall fires, and in the classification by electric equipment and installation, fire caused by wiring and wiring equipment accounts for approximately 38.3% of overall fires. The purpose of this study is to propose methods to prevent electric fires due to short circuit by improving indoor wiring currently in use and to find the fundamental measures to prevent wiring equipment caused fires by improving the socket and plug which are commonly used in wiring equipment. It is expected that the electric fire prevention measures presented through this study can be used as a measure to protect many people and properties by eliminating the root cause of electric fire.

The geostationary satellite COMS is going to be launched in 2010, and, in the series of test, there are some high-pressure tests concerning the vessel tank filled with helium gas of hundreds atmospheric pressure. In this paper, authors evaluates risk associated with accidental rupture of the test system. Two possible scenarios are considered: 1) the 310-bar helium tank ruptures at the center of the acoustic chamber, and 2) the 116-bar reduced-pressure helium tank ruptures in the test room shielded by bullet-proof glasses. Using the theory of blast wave propagation and computational simulation, the dynamics of wave reflected in a confined space is investigated for highly complex unsteady flow physics.

지난 10년 동안 인터넷은 우리 생활에 가히 혁명적인 영향을 끼쳐 왔습니다. 그러나 지난 10년이 인터넷 혁명의 시대였다고 한다면 향후 10년간은 모바일 혁명의 시대가 될 것이라고들 이야기합니다. 모바일 혁명 시대의 핵심에는 스마트폰이 자리하고 있습니다. 작년 이맘때쯤 국내에 아이폰이 도입되면서 국내에도 불붙기 시작한 스마트폰 광풍은 모든 비즈니스와 우리 생활에서 혁명을 예고하고 있습니다. 스마트폰 플랫폼 개발업체, 이동통신업체, 단말 기업체, 콘텐츠 개발자 등 다양한 플레이어들이 모바일 생태계 속에서 새로운 비즈니스 모델들을 탄생시키고 있고, 개인들의 생활속에서도 스마트폰은 깊숙이 자리매김하고 있습니다. 이처럼 우리 산업 전반과 삶에 새로운 변화를 일으키고 있는 스마트폰은 과연 안전한 것일까요? 스마트폰은 다양한 앱이 구동될 수 있는 개방형 플랫폼을 가지고 있고, 앱스토어를 통해 누구나 앱 사용자이자 제공자도 될 수 있습니다. 또한, 3G뿐만 아니라 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, PC Sync 등 다양한 네트워킹 기능을 제공해 줍니다. 이러한 개방성을 바탕으로 스마트폰은 급격하게 성장하고 있지만 개방성은 악성코드 감염, 해킹, 프라이버시 침해 등 역기능이 발생할 수 있는 여건도 마련해 주고 있습니다. 실제로 스마트폰 해킹 사고는 국내외에서 빈번하게 발생되고 있고 그 피해가 증가하고 있는 추세입니다. 올 4월에 국내에서도 첫 스마트폰용 악성코드가 발견되었고, 전 세계적으로 524건의 모바일 악성코드가 발견되었습니다. 이처럼 스마트폰 해킹은 현실화되어 우리를 위협하고 있습니다. 본 특집에서는 스마트폰 보안과 관련한 정부의 정책방향, 보안위협과 사례, 프라이버시 이슈, 보안시장 전망, 국내외 표준화 동향, 전문인력 양성계획 등을 살펴보도록 하겠습니다.

Generally circuit devices of low voltage are as follows, ICCB, PCB and MCCB. Among them, MCCB is typically used because it has superior characteristics which fuses do not possess, such as safety, controllability and ability to collaborate with other devices. The MCCB plays vital role, it has to trip instantaneously when the fault is occurred as well as it must have high insulation capacity. Therefore in order to enhance the breaking capacity, the study of contact construction, contact tip and link are necessary. This paper shows dynamic modeling of mechanism part of MCCB using an exclusive analysis program, and embodies the research of improvement of mechanism performance.

크루즈 페리 선박의 인테리어 섬유 내장부품은 고도의 난연성과 내구성, 그리고 높은 수준의 감성과 심미적 기능을 만족하는 고기능성 소재로 구성된 섬유 복합체이다. 이는 화재, 전복 등 돌발 사고에 대하여 탑승자를 보호하고, 쾌적한 실내 분위기를 제공함으로서 안전운행을 유도하며, 높은 수준의 감성과 심미적 기능을 부여함으로서 품위와 가치를 증가시키는 기능이 있다. 난연기능이 부가된 난연사의 경우 복합가공 즉, 방오, 항균, 소취 기능을 추가 부여하게 되면 난연 기능이 급격히 저하되는 결정적인 단점이 있다. 이로 인해 가혹한 난연 성능이 요구되는 선박용 인테리어 섬유제품의 경우 그 규격을 만족하기란 쉽지 않기 때문에 원사제조에서부터 염색공정, 가공공정에 걸쳐 각 단위 공정별로 복합적으로 난연, 방오, 항균소취 기능들의 추가 보완이 필요한 실정이다. 또한 최근 사용자 입장에서는 용도에 따라 여러 가지 기능이 복합된 원단을 요구하는 사례가 많아지고 있는 실정이며, 많은 후가공 공정시 난연가공과 더불어 복합적으로 추가 가공시 난연성 저하 등의 문제가 있다. 본 연구에서는 선박용 인테리어 섬유제품의 Spec.을 만족시키기 위해 난연 직물의 염색 후가공에 적용되는 염조제 성능을 조사하고 고견뢰 및 균염을 만족하는 난연 내광 등의 복합기능성을 확보하기 위한 기초기술을 검토하였다.

In Seoul, there are lots of skyscrapers that have above 60 stories and buildings that have more than 8 basement levels, as well as massive distribution complex region which is connected to subways, departments, malls, hotels, and exhibition halls. When an accident, such as fire and explosion, happens in these areas or structures, if we can't find where fire-fighters are, who go into the building to suppress the fire, we couldn't be sure of their safety as well as effective command. Actually, it may cause much more damage itself and restrict either fire suppression or lifesaving. To protect people's life and properties as much as possible, this study will show the method to construct system of disaster-management supports with effective operation of fire force and scientific fire strategy in the scene by using Ubiquitous technique to enormous disasters.
