Facility diagnosis is essential for the smooth operation and life extension of rotating equipment used in industrial sites. Compared to other diagnostic methods, vibration diagnosis can find most of the initial defects, such as unbalance, alignment failure, bearing defects and resonance, compared to other diagnostic methods. Therefore, vibration analysis is the most commonly used facility diagnosis method in industrial sites, and is usefully used as a predictive preservation (PdM) technology to manage the condition of the facility. However, since the vibration diagnosis method is performed based on experience based on the standard, it is carried out by experts. Therefore, it is intended to contribute to the reliability of the facility by establishing a system that anyone can easily judge defects by establishing a vibration diagnosis method performed based on experience as a knowledgeable code system. An algorithm was developed based on the ISO-20816 standard for vibration measurement, and the reliability was verified by comparing the results of vibration measurement at various demonstration sites such as petrochemical plant compressors, hydrogen charging stations, and industrial machinery with the results of analysis using a development system. The developed algorithm can contribute to predictive maintenance (PdM) technology that anyone can diagnose the condition of the rotating machine at industrial sites and identify defects early to replace parts at the exact time of replacement. Furthermore, it is expected that it will contribute to reducing maintenance costs and downtime due to the failure of rotating machines when applied to various industrial sites such as oil refining facilities, transportation, production facilities, and aviation facilities.

Ships are capable of operating on residual fuel oil. Recently, various attempts have been made to meet environmental regulations and with ships operating on residual fuel oil. One way of fulfilling these requirements is by using fuel additives. Dispersants and fuel combustion improvers will have a positive effect on improving the combustion characteristics of the residual fuel oil. As such, this study examines fuel oils blended with additives by using fuel combustion analysis (FIA/FCA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results of FIA/FCA focuse only on the amount of work done by the fuel oil. Therefore, it is recommended in this study that a new method to evaluate the combustion efficiency via FIA/FCA processes be developed. The analysis with ROHR curve gained by FIA/FCA brought similar results with pressure trace curve therefore it can be said that new analysis method can be reliable. The TGA, analysis process is very sensitive to the evaporation of fuel, for example, which could be addressed. In the performance-related findings of this study, blended samples with additives containing iron compounds showed a greater improvement in early combustion characteristics than samples without additives.

This study aims at developing an easily-applicable Sanitation Standard Operating Procedure(SSOP) program for Fresh raw-fish manufacturing. It compares the sanitation inspection results of SSOP-program-applied procedure and non-applied procedure. The samplings for bacteriological examination were collected from the touching surface of food and from the personal workers. The sanitation status was recorded in the check-up list. The results were statistically analyzed to ascertain the efficiency of the SSOP program. The present official KFDA check-up list for sanitation inspection is composed of 51 items. Each item is judged to be fit or unfit to the standards. When the unfit items are more than 6, the work-place is judged to be insanitary. But in this study, the results of sanitation inspection are scaled in points in the 70％ allotment, and the results of bacteriological examination are scaled in points in 30％, totaling 100％. Below 60 scores are judged to be insanitary and administratively punished; 61-75 scores are judged to be average; 76-85 good; above 86 excellent. The sanitation inspection scores by the improved check-up list went up by two grades from 71.8 (before SSOP program) to 88.6 (after SSOP program). The results of bacteriological examination also improved from 57.5 to 98.2. The total scores of both results converted in the allotment of 70％ and 30％ also showed an improvement by two grades from 66.4 (before SSOP program) to 93.4 (after SSOP program). The above results show that the manufacturers participated in this study are following the 8 essential sanitary procedures which are needed to anchor the HACCP system.

An assesment technique for the quantitative evaluation of tunnel safety during tunnel excavation was newly proposed in this study using displacement measurements. First of all, field measurement guidelines used at tunnel construction sites in Korea and other countries were investigated. It was found out that the criteria of the guidelines were not clear and varied depending on the construction sites. The practical use of field measurement data for the evaluation of tunnel safety was very limited due to uncertainties of the guidelines related to the interpretation of measured data during the excavation. Critical strain concept is introduced in this study for the assesment of tunnel safety during the tunnel excavation. Moreover, the characteristics of tunnel displacements caused by the tunnel excavation were investigated in detail in order to investigate the practical application of the critical strain concept. The total tunnel displacements can be subdivided into three parts: displacements occurring ahead of tunnel face, displacements occurring prior to measurements, and displacements occurring after the installation of instruments. The characteristic of each portion of displacements is analysed in this study. Finally, a general method on the use of the displacement measurement data for the critical strain concept was suggested in the concrete manner, considering the field measurement practice in Korea.

하천 유량측정을 위한 영상유속계는 비접촉식 방식이기 때문에 현장에서의 측정이 간편하고, 비교적 안전하기 때문에 비접촉 측정방식의 활용방안 마련에 대한 연구개발 등이 꾸준히 진행되어 왔다. 다만, 이러한 비접촉식 유속계는 표면의 유속을 측정하기 때문에 유량산정을 위해서는 평균유속으로의 환산이 필요하지만, 현재까지는 평균유속 환산계수를 사용하여 표면유속을 평균유속으로 환산하는 방법이 유일하게 활용되고 있다. 하지만, 실제 하천에서는 단면 및 하도형태, 하상조건, 수리특성 및 유속분포 등의 다양한 조건에 따라 환산계수가 결정되기 때문에 이를 단순히 일률적으로 적용하는 것은 곤란하며, 이로 인해 과거 오랫동안 표면유속을 평균유속으로 환산하기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행되었지만, 실제 다양한 조건의 하천에 적용할 수 있는 표준화된 방법은 아직까지 제시되지 못하고 있다. 현재까지, 고정식으로 설치된 유속계로부터 측정된 유속을 평균유속으로 환산하는 방법으로는 국내외적으로 지표유속법과 유속분포법이 대표적이며, 초음파유속계를 활용한 자동유량측정시설의 유량산정방법으로 활용되고 있다. 이러한 방법들은 고정된 유속계의 측정유속을 지표유속으로 하여 다양한 범위의 실측된 평균유속과의 관계를 개발하여 활용하거나, 지표유속을 매개로 개수로 단면의 이론적인 유속분포를 추정하여 평균유속을 산정한다. 또한, 기존의 표면유속을 측정하는 방법을 활용하여 유량을 산정하기 위해서 표면유속과 평균유속과의 비를 나타내는 환산계수(K = 0.85)를 활용하고 있다(Rantz, 1982). 이러한 환산계수는 대상지점의 수리특성, 하도 및 단면형태에 따라 달라지지만 적절한 환산계수를 산정하는 것은 매우 어렵기 때문에 표면유속을 활용한 유량산정에 한계가 있다. 따라서, 연구에서는 비접촉식 표면유속계의 고정식 유량측정 활용성 및 적용성을 검토할 목적으로 환산계수를 활용한 방법(이하 환산계수법)을 포함하여 지표유속법 및 유속분포법 등 표면유속을 활용한 유량산정방법을 검토하였다. 이를 위해 한강 지류 탄천의 서울시(대곡교) 지점을 대상으로 영상유속계 등 비접촉식 유속계를 적용하여 표면유속을 측정하였다. 다양한 유량조건에서 측정한 표면유속을 토대로 세가지 유량산정방법을 적용하여 유량을 산정하였으며, 산정된 유량을 기존 수위-유량관계 곡선식의 환산유량과 비교하여 표면유속의 지표유속 활용성을 검토하였다.

The subsea pipeline has received considerable attention as a high-value-added industry linked to the energy and steel industries including natural resource development. The design and installation of the subsea pipeline require a variety of key technologies to carry out the project. In particular, a thorough pre-verification process through pre-commissioning is essential for the safe operation of the subsea pipeline. The hydrotesting stage in the pre-commissioning process of the subsea pipeline is known to be affected significantly by the ambient temperature change; however, there is a little study based on the theoretical and numerical approach. In this study, the method of predicting the internal temperature change using the transient heat transfer method for the stage of hydrotesting during the pre-commissioning process of the subsea pipeline and the prediction method of the pressure variation in the pipeline using it were proposed. The predicted results were compared with field test results and its effectiveness was verified. The proposed analysis procedure is expected to contribute to the productivity improvement of the subsea pipeline installation project by enabling the prediction of pressure variation through pipeline heat transfer simulation from the initial design stage of the subsea pipeline installation project.

Through the increasing use of internet and smart device, consumers can search the information what they want to find. The information has been accumulated and become into a big data. Analyzing the big data regarding key words associated with foods and foodborne pathogens could be a method for predicting foodborne illness outbreaks, especially in school food services. Therefore, the objective of this study was to elucidate the correlations between key words associated with foods and food safety issues. Frequencies of the key words for foodborne pathogens and food safety issues were searched using an internet portal site from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2014. In addition, foodborne outbreak data were collected from Ministry of Food and Drug Safety for the same period of time. There was correlation between the time having maximum key word frequencies of foods and foodborne pathogens, and the time for foodborne illness outbreak occurred. In addition, the search frequencies for foods and foodborne pathogens were generally increased right after foodborne outbreaks occurred. However, in some cases foodborne outbreaks occurred after the search frequencies for certain seasonal foods increased These results could be useful in food safety management for reducing foodborne illness and in food safety communication.

The researches have only conducted regarding construction safety management and risk on interior construction site(workers) and is insufficient about the exterior construction site(third party). As a result, ordinary people who were near construction sites have injured and hold a negative view when they think about the construction industry because construction industry have been exposed to them having a high accidents rate through media. In addition, the importance of industrial disaster prevention is emphasized at this point in time, the overall safety management system should be constructed with considering construction site external(third human) for improving the negative image of the construction industry among ordinary people. Therefore, the objective of this study is to develop the quantification model of human accident utilizing the insurance claim payout occurred construction site exterior(third party). In the future, it can be used as a reference for developing the safety management checklist in construction site interior exterior and development for forecasting control system of human accident.
