This study discusses the effectiveness of safety management programs resulted from examining crash data collected during the period of implementation of the programs by a commercial transport company. For the analysis, two tye of comparison approaches are adopted: 1) a study comparing before-after of the implementation of a safety program, and 2) a study comparing a traffic accident index for various target groups. Technically, the effect of the safety management program is derived by eliminating both the 'regression to the mean' and the changing trend in the traffic accident index. The results show that safety management programs are effective to prevent traffic accidents, whereas company type appears irrelevant. The results also show that the effectiveness is significantly different depending on the intensity of safety management program and company size. In addition, a reciprocal effect is very likely to existamong the combination of these variables. This indicates that in order to improve the accident reduction effectiveness of such programs, the development and application of safety management programs based on both safety management strength and company size are required.

석유 및 천연가스 생산에 사용되는 고정식 해양플랜트에는 자켓 구조물이 가장 많이 사용되고 있다. 생산에 사용되는 자켓 구조물은 풍하중이나 파랑하중에 의해 인명의 피해 없이 변위 및 응력에 대해 안전해야 한다. 그러나 1940년대 후반부터 사용되어 온 자켓 구조물은 피로하중, 노후화로 인해 내구성에 문제가 생기고 있다. 본 논문에서는 자켓 구조물의 안전성을 검토하기 위해 모드형상을 이용하여 자켓 구조물의 손상 위치를 탐색하는 방법을 제시한다. 제시한 손상탐지기법의 효용성을 입증하기 위해 자켓 구조물의 유한요소모델에 임의의 손상을 모사하였다. 유한요소모델의 손상 전 모드형상과 손상 후 모드형상의 모달 변형에너지의 변화를 이용하여 손상 지수를 유도하고 유도한 손상지수를 사용하여 손상이 있는 부재와 손상이 없는 부재를 분류하였다. 연구 결과 손상지수가 '0'인 부재를 제외한 나머지 부재 모두 본 연구에서 제시한 손상탐지기법으로 손상 부재를 판별할 수 있었다.

Highway traffic safety evaluation of area on the basis of the accident rate has a limitation, thus its result is dependent on the exposure variables. It works an obstacle to decision making for effective budget execution. In this paper, we developed a methodology of taking simultaneously macroscopic exposure indicators into account in evaluating the safety using least squares method. The weight of exposure indicators to make up of highway traffic safety evaluation index is that accident rate per population, accident rate per registration vehicle and accident rate per length of road is 0.29, 0.52 and 0.19 respectively and calculated the highway traffic safety index of total local governments in Korea. The methodology to calculate highway traffic safety evaluation index proposed in this paper can be utilized in executing the traffic safety policies to increase the efficiency of investment about traffic safety budget.

Recently, the number of damages on social infrastructure has increased due to natural disasters and the frequency of earthquake events that are higher than magnitude 3 has increased in South Korea. Liquefaction was found near the epicenter of a 5.4 magnitude earthquake that occurred in Pohang, South Korea, in 2017. To explore increases in soil moisture index due to soil liquefaction, changes in the remote exploration index by the land cover before and post-earthquake occurrence were analyzed using liquefaction feasibility index and multi-cyclical Landsat-8 satellite images. We found that the soil moisture index(SMI) in the liquefaction region immediately after the earthquake event increased significantly using the Normal Vegetation Index(NDVI) and Surface Temperature(LST).

This study was performed to develop a children's dietary life safety index required by the Special Act on Safety Management of Children's Dietary Life enacted in 2009. An analytical hierarchy process was used to obtain initial weights of dietary life safety evaluation indicators. The Delphi method was applied to develop the weights along with 98 food and nutrition professionals. Three representative policy indicators, nine strategy indicators, 11 main evaluation indicators, and 20 detailed evaluation indicators were selected for the children's dietary life safety assessment. Three policy indicators and nine strategy indicators were the following: children's food safety indicator (support level of children' safety, safety management level of children's favorite foods, and safety management level of institutional food service), children's nutrition safety indicator (management level of missing meals and obesity, nutrition management level of children's favorite foods, and nutrition management level of institutional food service), and children's perception and practice level indicator ("Dietary Life Law" perception level, perception, and practice level for dietary life safety management, perception, and practice level for nutrition management). Weights of 40%, 40%, and 20% were given for the three representative policy indicators. The relative importance of nine strategic indicators, which were determined by the Delphi method is as follows: For children’s food safety, support level of children's safety, safety management level of children's favorite foods, and safety management level of institutional food service were given weights of 12%, 9%, and 19%, respectively. For children's nutrition safety, the missing meals and obesity management level, nutrition management level of children's favorite foods, and the nutrition management level of institutional food service were given weights of 13%, 11%, and 16%, respectively. The "Dietary Life Law" perception level, perception and practice level of dietary life safety management, and perception and practice level of nutrition management were given weights of 4%, 7%, and 9%, respectively.

In this study, we propose a new method for evaluating the vulnerability to flooding river levee. The purpose of this study is to examine how to apply the factors necessary to calculate the proposed levee flood index. To do this, the safety flood level was analyzed by applying the planned flood level. The levee flood vulnerabilities index was calculated based on seven factors such as freeboard, levee crown section, levee section ratio, safety factor, raised spot length, Seepage line change degree, and critical velocity. The Levee Flood Vulnerability Index(LFVI) of the levee developed in this study was used to levee vulnerability analysis. The results of the analysis were divided into 1 to 7 grades using Levee Flood Vulnerability Index(LFVI).

All ships should ensure stability in accordance with IMO regulations. However, GM is only used to determine ship stability because it takes a lot of time to validate all regulations. This is a problem given that the safety of vessels cannot be guaranteed, potentially leading to accidents. There is a need for a more intuitive and comprehensive method of confirming the stability of ships. This study developed a stability index that expresses ship stability in one value. An index equation is defined based on the 6 stability criteria for ships prescribed by IMO and the result of calculating the ship stability of a model ship. A stability index has been derived for each loading condition by applying the index equation to the same ship. It can clearly be seen that this stability index appropriately explains the criteria. In other words, it is possible to assess ship stability with one value and confirm whether the ship stability satisfies IMO regulations. This index will help masters and officers more easily and accurately check ship stability.
