지구 온난화와 무분별한 도시 개발은 농촌 및 자연 지역에 비해 도시에서의 수문 피해를 야기하고 있는 현실이다. 특히 우리나라의 6~8월에는 태풍과 강우가 집중적으로 발생하여 도시 지역에서의 위험성이 증가하고 있다. 1990년대 이전과 달리, 2000년대 이후에는 태풍과 강우로 인한 집중적인 호우가 도시 지역의 잠재적 내수침수 위험을 높이고 있는 실정이며 이에 대한 대책이 중요하다는 것은 현실로 다가왔다. 국지적인 호우는 최근 우리나라에 자주 발생하고 있어, 도시지역의 홍수 피해가 증가하고 있으며, 특히, 서울은 급속히 발전한 도시 중 하나로 2010년, 2011년, 2012년, 2022년에 홍수로 인한 도시 침수로 인명과 재산 피해가 크게 발생했다. 현재 우리나라는 도시 지역을 대상으로 개별 시설물에 대한 방재성능평가를 수행하고 있으나, 방재성능평가 기법 미흡에 따른 평가 결과의 신뢰성 부족으로 방재성능평가 수행에 어려움이 있다. 시설물뿐만 아니라 유역에 대한 방재성능평가 및 도시 통합적인 면적 개념의 방재성능평가 기법 개발이 필요하다. 도시 지역은 인구와 재산이 밀집되어 있어, 집중적인 호우에 의한 피해 노출 및 홍수에 대한 취약성이 증가하고 있어 지자체별 방재성능목표 강우량 설정에 대한 문제점을 검토하고, 지역 특성을 반영한 방재성능목표 설정 및 활용 개선을 위한 방안이 필요하다. 따라서, 각 시·군에 적용되고 있는 도시 방재 시설물의 평가에 대한 현재의 운영 상황과 문제점을 검토하고 이를 바탕으로 방재성능평가를 향상시키기 위한 개선 방안을 제시하였다.

As the earth's average temperature rises, crop and livestock productions are at risk. Chickens are sensitive to heat stress, and increased temperatures may have adverse effects on their production performance and animal welfare. Reliable stress measurements are crucial for heat stress adaptation. Therefore, various measurement methods and biomarkers are used to evaluate poultry stress levels. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are heat sensitive biological markers that are highly expressed under stress, thereby acting as a cellular thermometer. HSPs also have chaperone activity, which protects cells from heat stress. This review details the role of HSP70 as a molecular chaperone and biomarker for heat stress, which is important for breeding climate-adaptable, thermo-tolerant poultry.

To evaluate radiological impact from the operation of a low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste disposal facility, a logical presentation and explanation of expected accidental scenarios is essential to the stakeholders of the disposal facility. The logical assessment platform and procedure, including analysis of the safety function of disposal components, operational hazard analysis, operational risk analysis, and preparedness of remedial measures for operational safety, are improved in this study. In the operational risk analysis, both design measures and management measures are suggested to make it possible to connect among design, operation, and safety assessment within the same assessment platform. For the preparedness of logical assessment procedure, classification logic of an operational accident is suggested based on the probability of occurrence and consequences of assessment results. The improved assessment platform and procedure are applied to an operational accident analysis of the Korean low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste disposal facility and partly presented in this paper.

Impact based forecast refers to providing information on potential socioeconomic risks according to weather conditions, away from the existing weather factor-oriented forecast. Developed weather countries are investing manpower and finances in technology development to provide and spread impact information, but awareness of impact based forecasts has not spread in Korea. In addition, the focus is on disasters such as floods and typhoons, which cause a lot of damage to impact based forecasts, and research on evaluating the impact of vehicle risks due to strong winds in the transportation sector with relatively low damage is insufficient. In Korea, there are not many cases of damage to vehicle conduction caused by strong winds, but there are cases of damage and the need for research is increasing. Road vulnerability is required to evaluate the risk of vehicles caused by strong winds, and the purpose of this study was to calculate the criteria for road vulnerability. The road vulnerability evaluation was evaluated by the altitude of the road, the number of lanes, the type of road. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the vulnerable area was well reproduced. It is judged that the results of this study can be used as a criterion for preparing an objective evaluation of potential risks for vehicle drivers.

The work within this study develops an algorithm based on the structural similarity index to assess numerically between reconstructed images with a reference image to separate the homogeneity and heterogeneity for diffuse optical tomography. Global geometry and region of interest assessment have been measured to yield the similarity. The results indicate that the mean of structural similarity index shows potential performance to distinguish between visible and invisible inclusion inside the model. Therefore, the structural similarity index may promise to assist the image assessment for evaluating breast structural information.

최근 급속히 발전하고 있는 과학기술과 산업발달에 따라 화학물질, 위험물의 사용, 저장 및 운송물이 날로 증가하고 있다. 이러한 물질들은 우리의 일상생활과 인류문화 발전에 크게 기여하고 있지만 인화성, 폭발성 등의 잠재위험성을 가지고 있다. 세계 각국은 물질의 분류와 표시가 달라 국제무역에서 많은 사고가 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 이 연구의 목적은 자기반응성물질의 화재 폭발 위험성을 평가하고, 국제적인 시험방법과 국내 시험방법으로 시험하여 연관성 및 상관관계를 알아보고 선진화된 시험방법을 국내실정에 적합하게 제시하는데 있다.

70년대 두 차례의 유류파동은 에너지자원의 중요성에 대한 기존의 인식을 급속도로 변화시켰으며, 이와 아울러 신대체에너지를 중심으로 한 신기술의 개발여부와 관련하여 에너지 기술평가모형의 수요를 급증시켰다. 이에 지난 십여년간 구미제국을 중심으로 다양한 에너지신기술을 평가하기 위해 다양한 분석기법들이 개발되어 왔으며 이러한 평가기법들을 총괄적으로 지칭하는 에너지기술평가모형(Energy Technology Assessment Models)은 에너지신기술의 경제적, 기술적 특성과 에너지시스템내에서 신기술의 잠재적 역할을 사전 평가하면서 국가적 차원에서의 에너지연구개발 정책을 수립하는데 널리 이용되어 왔다. 본 연구는 국내 에너지 연구개발 관련자들의 이해부족과 데이터베이스의 미비 등 여러 가지 제약요인들로 에너지기술 평가모형이 널리 실용화되지 못하고 있는 현실을 감안하여 경제/에너지/환경/기술개발정책에 있어서의 에너지부문의 역할을 장기적으로 재평가하고 특히 기존 에너지문제의 제약요인인 환경문제 해결을 위한 에너지 수요관리 평가의 개발 필요성에 부응하기 위하여 기존의 거시 경제적 에너지공급모형과 최근 미국, EU등에서 발전시켜 나가고 있는 경제/에너지/환경/기술개발의 통합모형을 문헌조사를 통해 비교,분석하였다.

This study analyzes the potential to achieve carbon neutrality through the technical definition and case studies of carbon-neutral buildings. In line with the Paris Agreement of December 2015, the global community has committed to limiting the average temperature rise to below 2oC and striving to restrict it to 1.5oC above pre-industrial levels. Achieving this requires reaching a net-zero state by 2050 and necessitates transitions across various sectors including energy, land use, and transportation. This research explores the technological approaches and real-world examples of carbon-neutral buildings, assessing their feasibility and limitations. By examining the definition of carbon-neutral buildings and presenting various technological solutions and case studies from both domestic and international contexts, this study evaluates the effectiveness and practicality of carbon-neutral buildings. The findings offer specific guidelines for the design, construction, and operation of carbon-neutral buildings and provide practical information for policymakers and practitioners aiming to create sustainable built environments.

HAZOP analysis is a systematic method on the basis of the experts' experience and knowledge and is used for hazard identification and risk assessment by using brainstorming method. So, HAZOP analysis has been applied to major chemical industries efficiently. But it does not apply to small and midium chemical industries because of the insufficiency of the experts. Hence, in this study a new hazard identification method is proposed by modifying complexity and expertise of the HAZOP analysis and will be contributed to improve risk management for small and midium chemical industries.

This study aims to identify negotiation alternatives related to Post-2012 reducing emissions from deforestation (RED) and enhancement of forest carbon stock (EFCS) activities. It also aims to recommend a negotiation strategy considering environmental integrity and national interest on the basis of estimating reduction potentials of each alternative on the assumption that tradable carbon credits play an important role as positive incentives. In order to estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction potentials and income potential from RED and EFCS activities, 99 countries were selected by the Global Forest Resources Assessment of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. A 'baseline and credit' method was applied to estimate RED activities. Gross-net and net-net methods were applied for EFCS activities. According to the results, Brazil, Indonesia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo have more potential to get positive incentives through RED, while China, Chile, and the Republic of Korea have more potential to get positive incentives through EFCS. This study suggests including both RED and EFCS activities in the boundary of policy approaches and endowment of positive incentives to consider GHG reduction potentials in the global scale and equity among developing countries. Making a discount rate application of forest management activities can be also recommended to factor out the effects of human-induced activities by EFCS activities.
