In the construction operation, foundation work should be done in advance for the building structure to be installed. This foundation work include a number of activities such as excavation, ground water prevention, piling, wale installation, etc. Caution should be taken in the operation because the dynamics of earth movement can cause a significant failure in the temporary structure. The temporary structure, therefore, should be constantly monitored to understand its behavior. This paper introduces the USN-based monitoring system to automatically identify the behavior of the temporary structure in addition to visual inspection. The autonomous capability of the monitoring system can increase the safety in the construction operation by providing the detailed structural changes of temporary structures.

Advanced Internet of Things (IoT) technology is being used in various ways for the safety of the energy industry. At the center of safety measures, drones play various roles on behalf of humans. Drones are playing a role in reaching places that are difficult to reach due to large-scale facilities and space restrictions that are difficult for humans to inspect. In this study, the accuracy and completeness of movement of dangerous facilities were tested using drone images, and it was confirmed that the movement recognition accuracy was 100%, the average data analysis accuracy was 95.8699%, and the average completeness was 100%. Based on the experimental results, a future-oriented facility risk analysis system combined with ICT technology was implemented and presented. Additional experiments with diversified conditions are required in the future, and ICT convergence analysis system implementation is required.

The process and facilities of modern chemical plants are becoming increasingly complex, there is possibility of potential risk. Internal chemicals generate stress concentration when operated due to turbulence, laminar flow, pressure, temperature, friction, etc. It causes cumulative fatigue damage, which can damage or rupture chemical facilities and devices. The statistics of chemical accidents found that the highest rate of occurrence was in summer, and in the last five years statistics on chemical accidents, leakage incidents make up a decent percentage of accidents. Chemical leaks can cause serious human damage and economic damage, including explosions and environmental pollution. In this study, based on the leak accident of chemical plant, the risk analysis, and damage effects assessment were estimated using a 3D scanner and FLACS. As a result, if chemicals leak in summer, the risk is higher than in other seasons, the seasonal safety management measures, and countermeasure were estimated.

A variety of general purpose polymer products such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PVC), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS) and polyurethane (PU) are widely produced and used in the industrial field. Many industrial accidents have occurred due to fire and explosion at the manufacturing site. In order to prevent such accidents, it is important to collect and analyze accident cases that occurred in the past to identify the characteristics of accidents and to use them to prevent the same kind of accidents or similar accidents. In this study, the accident distribution characteristics of general polymer manufacturing process were examined by using SPSS based on the database of the industrial accident statistics system operated by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency. These results can be used to prevent accidents in the general-purpose polymer product process and ensure the safety of the process.

According to the growth of the internet and the usage of software agents, the CAPTCHA that is a method for taking apart humans and computers has been widely deployed and used. As the results of many research activities, the CAPTCHA, which is spoken for a distorted image material including random text, has known to be easily breakable via artificial intelligence techniques. As one of alternatives for those text-based CAPTCHAs, methods using photos are concerned and various image-based CAPTCHAs are suggested. However, image-based CAPTCHAs still have some problems. In this paper, we discuss what are the problems in each image-based CAPTCHA and propose a new image-based CAPTCHA using image composition as the solution of those problems. Furthermore, for the secure operation of the CAPTCHA, we suggest a communication protocol that works without the virtual session and consider possible security and usability problems in the protocol.

The importance of data as a core resource of the 4th industrial revolution is emerging, and companies illegally collect and use personal data. In the financial sector, active research is conducted to safely manage personal data and provide better services using blockchain, big data, and AI technology. In this paper, we propose a system that can safely manage personal data by using blockchain technology, which can be used without changing the existing system. The composition of this system consists of a blockchain, blockchain linkages, a service provider, and a user (i.e., an app). Blockchain can be used regardless of its type and form, and services are provided by classifying blockchains and services in the blockchain linkages. Service providers can access personal data only after requesting and receiving delegated permission from users. Existent MyData services store all data in a user's mobile phone, so information may get leaked due to jailbreaks or rooting. But in the proposed system, personal data are stored in blockchain so information leakage can be prevented. In the future, we will study ways to provide customized services using personal data stored in blockchain.

As the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0) evolves, studies on autonomous ships have been conducting in the shipping industry. Currently, two or three degrees of autonomous ships is in operation, and a shore remote control of icer (SRCO) monitors vessel operations and intervenes remotely where necessary in the service. However, as the curriculum for an SRCO has not been established internationally, the risk of an accident by an unqualified SRCO is increasing. In this study, specifies the curriculum required for SRCO that consists of suitable existing training and new training under remote control circumstances. This includes Non-technical skill training to enhance the effectiveness of an SRCO. This curriculum can be used for a new SRCO to evaluate training and competency specific safety standards, and to enable existing seafarers to become SRCOs through the necessary training.

Unmanned aerial vehicles are widely used in various fields, and real-time path replanning is a critical factor in enhancing the safety and efficiency of these devices. In this paper, we propose a real-time path replanning technique based on RRT* and LOSPO. The proposed technique first generates an initial path using the RRT* algorithm and then optimizes the path using LOSPO. Additionally, the optimized path can be converted into a trajectory that considers actual time and the dynamic limits of the aircraft. In this process, environmental changes and collision risks are detected in real-time, and the path is replanned as needed to maintain safe operation. This method has been verified through simulation-based experiments. The results of this paper make a significant contribution to the research on real-time path replanning for UAVs, and by applying this technique to various situations, the safety and efficiency of UAVs can be improved.

In the IoT(IoT: Internet of Things) environment, network configuration is essential to collect data generated from objects. Various communication methods are used to process data of objects, and wireless communication methods such as Bluetooth and WiFi are mainly used. In order to collect data of objects, a communication module must be installed to collect data generated from sensors or edge devices in real time. And in order to deliver data to the database, a software architecture must be configured. Data generated from objects can be stored and managed in a database in real time, and data necessary for industrial safety can be extracted and utilized for industrial safety service applications. In this paper, a network environment was constructed using a LoRa(LoRa: Long Range) gateway to collect object data, and a client/server data collection model was designed to collect object data transmitted from the LoRa module. In order to secure the resources necessary for data collection and storage management without data leakage, data collection should be possible in real time. As an application service, location data required for industrial safety can be stored and managed in a database in real time.
