With the continuous industrial development, not only natural resource depletion, waste generation, but also various weather conditions are becoming more frequent. Efforts are continuing to recycle industrial by-products to overcome the climate crisis and save resources. Slag is a representative by-product generated in the steel industry, and it is characterized by improving rutting resistance and moisture sensitivity by increasing strength and reducing deformation when used as a material for asphalt concrete. On the other hand, slag has expansion properties so it is used as a relatively low-value-added material such as embankment and refilling materials. In order to expand the application of slag, an experiment was conducted to evaluate the crack resistance of slag asphalt concrete pavement. As a result of the indirect tensile strength test, it was found that the asphalt mixture using slag aggregate showed a value 1.13 times higher than that of the general HMA with the same particle size, and the toughness was 1.17 units, improving crack resistance. In addition, it was found that the failure number of the 4-point beam fatigue experiment and the slag asphalt mixture was 20,409, which was more than doubled compared to the general HMA. Furthermore, Overlay Test showed a tensile load residual rate of 4 times or more, improving crack resistance to repeated fatigue. Accordingly, the use of slag aggregate will likely have various advantages in improving the performance of asphalt concrete pavement.

The Construction industry has been dealing with much trouble due to global economic recession and domestic political trends emphasizing on welfare than development. Consequently, domestic construction market has been dramatically shrunk during the last a few years, and international market has become the only potential solution for the industry. However, there has been lack of efforts in developing a quantified measure of global competencies for Korean engineering and construction organizations. This study attempted to develop quantified indices for Korean engineering and construction contractors with which the level of global construction competencies can be objectively monitored. In doing so, a survey questionnaire was developed to identify relative importances of core competency elements which were derived from extensive literature reviews and experts interviews. AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) was employed as a main analysis method in developing quantification measures. The analysis results reveal little differences in competency requirements between engineering and construction firms and it implies that the global market becomes more integrated and requires a total solution for a construction project. The developed core competency measures can be used to quantify the level of preparedness of Korean engineering and construction firms at the time of evaluation and also be used as a basis for performance benchmarking indicators if they are compared with business showings.

2022년 8월 수도권 이상폭우로 인해 서울 도심지역의 지하시설, 도로, 주택 등에 침수가 발생하면서 인명 및 재산피해가 발생하였으며, 특히 동서로 가로지르는 정체전선으로 좁고 긴 비구름이 집중되면서 국지적으로 피해가 집중되었다. 서울시의 경우 도시화에 따른 불투수지역 증가 및 내수배제 불량에 따른 빗물 역류로 인한 피해가 지속적으로 발생하고 있으며, 최근에는 기후변화에 따른 방재성능목표 강우량을 초과하는 빈도의 이상폭우로 인해 하천범람과 내수배제 불량에 따른 복합적인 원인으로 침수피해 가중되고 있는 실정이다. 또한 서울시의 경우 전체 자연적, 사회적, 경제적, 환경적 요인 등의 지역적 편차가 매우 큰 도시로 지형적인 특성뿐만 아니라 취약시설(병원, 학교 등), 수방시설물(하천, 배수시설, 빗물펌프장 등) 및 방재시설(대피소, 구호소 등) 밀도 등에 따른 침수 취약성 및 위험성 등의 편차가 매우 크기 때문에 지역특성에 대한 피해사례가 다원화 되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 30년 이상의 종관기상관측(ASOS)과 서울시 자치구별 20년 이상의 방재기상관측(AWS)자료를 기반으로 CMIP6 SSP(Shared Socioeconomic Pathways, 공통사회 경제경로)시나리오에 따른 극한기후 지수(강수강도, 호우일수, 지속기간, 1일 최대강수량, 95퍼센타일 강수일수 등)에 대한 재현성을 평가하고 공간자기상관분석 등 시공간적인 강우특성에 대한 변화를 전망하였다. 특히 여름철 강우의 경우 자치구별 편차가 크게 나타났고 이를 통해 대도시의 도심지역의 경우 세분화하여 지역의 정확한 강우특성을 파악하는 것이 필요하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 도심지의 방재성능 초과강우 정의와 기준을 수립하고, 장기적인 수자원 및 도시계획 차원의 대책을 마련하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 기후위기에 따른 기록적인 호우(지역별 방재성능을 초과하는 강우)에 따른 재해는 구조적인 대책을 통해 모두 저감할 수 없는 한계가 있다. 하지만 인명피해를 최소화하는 것을 목표로 기후위기에 대한 적응단계로 인식하고 수리·수문학적, 사회경제학적 등 지역특성에 따른 방재성능목표 강우량에 대한 재검토와 더불어 법제도(풍수해보험, 저류조설치 의무화 등), 개인별 재해예방, 취약계층 안전망 확보, 반지하주택 침수안전대책, 재해지도 개선 등 구조적/비구조적인 대책을 통합 수립 및 보완하는 것이 필요한 시점이다.

Purpose of study: The purpose of this study is to suggest the direction of Christian self-identity while paying attention to the metaverse era. It suggests the direction of education that forms a Christian self-identity based on the problems of identity crisis that may arise due to the problem of de-realization while accepting the situation of the metaverse that has emerged due to the digital revolution. Research content and method: Focusing on the discussion of metaverse and de-realization, this paper suggests the importance of Christian self-identity and the direction of education. For this purpose, four tasks of practical theology were carried out based on Richard Osmer's consensus model. As the desciptive-empirical task was carried out, the opportunities and risks of the metaverse were brought up. Through the interpretive task, the problem of metaverse and de-realization was presented. The normative task emphasized the importance of Christian self-identity, and the pragmatic task proposed an education oriented towards Christian self-identity. Conclusions and Suggestions: It is important for education in the metaverse era to form a sense of Christian self-identity. The purpose of education is the formation of Christian's self-identity, and the content is to build the Christian relationality self, equality self, and openness self. The teaching method is interactive teaching, and the teacher and learner can be presented as an encounter between interpreters. The environment is any area of interpreted life, and evaluation can manifest itself in Christian life as disciples and citizens. The suggestion is to suggest compedency education methods for acquiring Christian self-identity while considering various generations.

This research aimed to examine the problems in a current national emergency management system that does not consider the disabled in the face of manmade catastrophes and natural disasters, and to conduct an expert opinion survey to explore the direction of disabled-inclusive public disaster management system. As a result of the analysis, the respondents of the survey revealed a need for a designated government department for disaster management systems for the disabled and the experts preferred the Ministry of Public Safety and Security (50%) than the Ministry of Health and Welfare (37.5%). However, 12.5% of the surveyed experts perceived cooperation between the two Ministries, rather than selecting a certain ministry, as necessary to establish a disaster management system for the disabled. Additionally, the experts recognized the response period (43.8%) of the disaster management life cycle to be the most important phase. Thus, at the disaster response period, the experts suggested utilizing an emergency alarm system to effectively rescue the disabled in the face of disaster. Based on this discussion, the paper explores ways to establish a disabled-inclusive public disaster management system.

This paper evaluates the new food policy adopted by the European Union to enhance the food safety after the mad cow crisis occurred in 1990's. Newly introduced rules at the EU level are characterized by two features. Firstly, an important part of them have the form of Regulation which is a binding legislative to all member countries. Secondly, most of them are horizontally applied to the whole food industry, irrespective of their kinds of performance, hygiene or labelling. According to theoretical studies on this topic, any food safety regulation for solving adverse selection problem or reducing negative externality in food consumption should be fine-tuning depending on the concrete demand and costs conditions of the food sector concerned. In this theoretical perspective, the food safety laws introduced at EU level after mad cow crisis have been over-regulated for improving social welfare. The true motivation for the transfer of the policy competence on food safety to the Union level is political rather than economic. Our analysis with a political economic perspective shows that how the EU food regulations have been embraced not only by the governments of member countries, but also by diverse interest groups like food processor & distributors, consumers and agro-livestock groups, and that they have been used as protectionist purpose specially against non-member developing countries. Taking into account the fact that the basic aim to form the Union is to establish a single market to enhance economic efficiency at the Union level, the EU is required to adopt some policy actions to reduce negative effects of too restrictive food safety regulations.

The U.S.-led international order, sustained by overwhelming national power since the end of the Cold War, is gradually being restructured from a unipolar international system to a bipolar international system or a multipolar international system, coupled with the weakening of U.S. global leadership and the rise of regional powers. Geopolitically, discussions have been constantly raised about the security instability that the reshaping of the international order will bring about, given that East Asia is a region where the national interests of the United States and regional powers sharply overlap and conflict. This study aims to critically analyze whether security discussions in Korea are based on appropriate crisis assessment and evaluation. This paper points out that the security crisis theory emerging in Korea tends to arise due to threat exaggeration and emphasizes the need for objective evaluation and conceptualization of the nature and the level of threats that the restructured international order can pose to regional security. Based on the analysis of changes in conflict patterns (frequency and intensity), occurring in East Asia during the periods divided into a bipolar system (1950-1990), a unipolar system (1991-2008), and a multipolar system (2009-current), this study shows that East Asia has not been as vulnerable to power politics as other regions. This investigation emphasizes that the complexity of Korea's diplomatic and security burden, which are aggravated by the reorganization of the international order, do not necessarily have to be interpreted as a grave security threat. This is because escalating unnecessary security issues could reduce the diplomatic strategic space of the Republic of Korea.

Simulators were introduced in education as a tool to make advanced training standardized, less expensive, and without danger to those involved. In 1922 in the Unites States, Edward Link presented his homemade flight simulator, which became common place in both military and civilian aviation, known as the "Link Trainer". The development of mannequin simulators used for medical simulation education, training, and research is reviewed, tracing the motivations, evolution to commercial availability, and efforts toward assessment of efficacy of those for teaching cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) for medical personnel and emergency medical technicians(EMT), cardiology skills, anaesthesia clinical skills, and crisis management. This study will provide a brief overview of simulators and trainers in several domains.
