In this paper, a driver's drowsy detection sensor system based on the respiration is investigated. The sensor system consists of a piezoelectric pressure sensor attached at the abdominal region of the seat belt and a personal computer. The piezoelectric pressure sensor was utilized for the measurement of pressure variations induced by the movement of the driver abdomen during breathing. The signal processing software for detecting driver's drowsiness was produced using the Labview. The experiments were performed with 30 years male driver. The amplitude of the respiration at awake state was larger than one at the drowsy state. On the contrary, the respiration rate at awake state was lower than one at the drowsy state. The drowsy detection sensor system developed based on the experimental could successfully detect the driver's drowsy on real-time.

This paper is a study of the behavior characteristics that occur in the hydrogen storage vessel TYPE 1 according to pressure and temperature conditions by FEM(Finite element method). Von Mises stress (VMS) generated at the highest pressure was compared with Yield strength (YS) of the material for structural safety assessment of the container, and the results of plastic strain energy density (PSED) were analyzed as basic data for life expectancy. According to the analysis results, the safety of the hydrogen gas storage vessel is not ensured due to the occurrence of VMS higher than the yield strength on the bottom of the storage container at a gas pressure of 40 Mpa or higher. In addition, the results of VMS caused by temperature conditions are very low and the behavior by temperature can be ignored. The maximum pressure of VMS/YS below 1 is calculated to be about 30 Mpa, indicating that the hydrogen storage container subject to this paper should be managed with a gas charging pressure of less than 30 Mpa.

This paper presents the strength safety of a LPG cylinder, which is fabricated by a steel sheet forming and a welding technology. The strength safety of a cylinder is guaranteed by analyzing a stress distribution of a LPG cylinder structure using a finite element method. The FEM computed results indicate that the hydraulic test gas pressure of $31kg/cm^2$ generates a concentrated local stress near the upper round end plate, which exceeds the yield strength of a LPG cylinder. Thus, the current hydraulic test pressure may be rechecked and revised because this pressure increases the fatigue failure and decreases the lift of the pressure vessel. The normal operation and sealing gas pressures such as $9kg/cm^2\;and\;18.6kg/cm^2$ are relatively safe for a steel LPG cylinder.

It has been well known the sloshing pressure has complex shape and various patterns. The pattern of sloshing pressure is variously characterized by the pressure amplitude, duration time and skewness. The structural response induced by the sloshing pressure is also affected by the pattern of sloshing pressure and the type of structural members. In order to understand the structural response by the perspective view of categorized pattern, it is more efficient to make simple sloshing pressure pattern than to reflect the complex pressure history. In this study, the sloshing pressures obtained by the small scale model test are simplified with respect to their duration and skewness. Dynamic analyses of Mark-III LNG CCS are then parametrically performed with the consideration of various types of sloshing impact. Meanwhile, the failure pressures given the duration and skewness are investigated after parametric calculations are conducted to investigate the effect of pressure parameters on the structural response.

발포우레탄 패커를 이용한 압력식 쏘일네일링 공법은 기존 쏘일네일링 공법의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 개발되었으며, 그라우팅 두부에 패커를 설치하여 네일 정착부를 완전히 밀폐하고 압력 그라우팅을 실시하여 정착부의 유효직경 및 인발저항력을 증가시켜 안전율을 향상시키는 공법이다. 압력식 쏘일네일링 공법에 대한 효용성을 검증하기 위하여 발포우레탄 패커 특성시험 및 현장조건을 묘사한 실내 그라우팅 주입실험, 현장시험 및 FEM해석을 수행하였다. 본 공법의 필수요소인 발포우레탄 패커의 정착력 확인을 위한 패커 특성시험 결과, 공내에 작용하는 압력에 대하여 패커가 충분히 저항함을 알 수 있었으며, 인발저항력 증가 원인 분석을 위한 실내 및 현장 시험결과, 압력 그라우트에 의하여 그라우트의 품질확보, 보강력증가 및 주변지반의 압밀효과를 확인 하였다. 끝으로 압력식 쏘일네일링 공법을 적용한 사면 및 흙막이 벽체 설계/시공 사례를 분석하여 현장 적용시 본 공법의 효용성 및 대처능력의 우수함을 입증하였다.

Since 2014, the Korean government has begun distributing LPG pipelines and LPG tankers to mountainous or island areas where it is difficult to open urban gas supply chains. When installing LPG supply facilities at village level and county level, it supplied consumers with 10 times higher quasi-low pressure (25 kPa to 100 kPa) than conventional gas supply pressure, increasing the risk of gas accident. Due to the pressure that is 10 times higher than the conventional gas supply pressure, large amounts of gas are released at a faster rate when leaked. In order to secure safety of quasi-low-pressure gas pipes, excess flow valves for quasi-low-pressure gas pipes are not developed and are not supplied in Korea. Therefore, Korea Gas Safety Corporation is investigating the performance standards and products of the excess flow valves in order to localize the excess flow valves.

가연성분진을 생산, 가공, 수송하는 과정에서 분진폭발의 위험성은 항상 존재하고 있으며, 일단 분진폭발이 발생하면 인명과 재산상의 피해가 큰 대형사고의 경향을 띄게 되므로, 무엇보다 중요한 과제는 폭발예방대책을 강구하는 것이라 할 수 있다. 분진폭발을 예방하기 위해서는 폭발하한계, 최대폭발압력, 폭발압력상승속도, 최소착화에너지, 최저발화온도 등이 있으며, 이들 특성치는 실험을 통하여 파악하여야 한다.(중략)

현대에 들어와 석유화학, 제약, 플라스틱 공업 등의 발달에 의해 분진의 기능이 활성화되었다. 그에 따라, 분진의 정전기 대전 현상으로 장·재해도 증가하고 있는 추세에 있다 공기 압력을 이용한 분체 도장의 경우는 물론이고, 일정구간으로 분진을 이송, 저장할 경우, 분진 입자는 배관 또는 입자 상호간 마찰, 충돌 등으로 전하의 이동 현상을 일으켜 대전된다［1］. 게다가, 단면적이 작은 개구부, 배관의 균열 등에 의해 일시적으로 외부로 분출되어질 때 대전량은 급상승하게 된다［2］.(중략)
