In this paper, we propose a taxi safety support system using the beacon device to reduce the anxiety and increase the satisfaction of taxi passengers. At first, we design a USB-type low power beacon device that can be easily installed inside a taxi and propose a distance and estimation method using beacon signal strength. Mobile applications for passengers and drivers based on beacon signals are developed. The server operation program for situation recognition, position estimation, risk management and notification of the taxi passenger is also developed. An accident risk management method is proposed using the recognition of getting on and off of the taxi passenger. The proposed methods are verified for applicability and usefulness through practical experiments.

Unlike NG supplied through pipes, LPG is mainly used for independent storage of cylinders or small storage tanks. As LPG is widely used in islands and underdeveloped areas, accidents due to neglect of safety management are high. Houses and businesses that have LPG accidents are likely to be damaged due to relatively high population density. Therefore, the necessity of strengthening the safety management of LPG is constantly raised. Accordingly, in 1996, Korea Gas Safety Corporation conducted an LPG leak test. In this study, based on the 96-year experiment, the gas leakage measurement of LPG vessels was conducted by adding several conditions such as outside temperature and pipe condition. Through this, the trend of leakage for various scenarios of LPG leakage was examined. In the case of a gas leak, when the article which may affect the pressure such as a regulator is not connected, the leakage amount is greatly changed by the outside air temperature, and when the regulator is fastened, the influence of the outlet pressure is large. It is expected that the experiment can be used as basic data for determining gas accidents and leakages that may occur later.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the biomechanical of K-Pop dance movement. The study was conducted on 15 male and 15 female subjects in 20-30 age groups. And they choose 150 K-Pop dance choreographies in the top 10 ranking of the main charts. We analyzed the RoM, joint moment and impulse force of the highlight movements. First, During the K-Pop dance motion, the usage of knee joints are more than the hip joints and the ankle joints, and female dancers has a larger range of motion than the male dancers. Second, male dancer uses more than female dancers when they compared the load of male dancers and female dancers. In particular, flexion and extension of the hip joints are mostly used in this study. Third, the impulse force of male dancers was greater than of female dancers, but it was statistically insignificant, this is equal to the impulse on walking. In conclusion, Female dancers use more range of motion than male dancers, but male dancer choreography requires greater torque, which can strain joints. Most choreographic exercises involve movements such as hip joint, knee joint, flexion of ankle joint, extension, rotation, and jumping.

In recent years, while the demand for electricity is rapidly increasing, fire accidents due to negligence in management of switchboards. In particular, switchboards for industrial and electrical resource control can cause serious problems. Thus, for the safety management of power switchboard, a secondary response is conducted to control firing when a specific condition value is satisfied, but in this case, it is highly likely that a considerable amount of time has elapsed after firing. In this paper, we propose a method to acquire big data for the development of a switchboard temperature and power control system that can actively respond to the current situation by monitoring and learning the temperature of the switchboard's busbar connection in real time. Specifically, a method for periodically acquiring and managing data such as temperature and power from various scattered sensors is proposed.

As the Fourth Industrial Revolution accelerating, countries worldwide are developing technologies to digitize and automate various industrial sectors. Building smart factories not only reduces costs through improved process productivity but also allows for preemptive identification and removal of risk factors through the practice of Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) management, thereby reducing industrial accident risks. In this study, we visualized pressure, temperature, power, and wind speed data measured in real-time via a monitoring GUI, enabling field managers and workers to easily access related information. Through the work environment monitoring system developed in this study, it is possible to conduct economic analysis on per-unit basis, based on the digitization of production management elements and the tracking of required resources. By implementing HSE in shipyards, potential risk factors can be improved, and gas and electrical leaks can be identified, which are expected to reduce production costs.

Energy Storage System(ESS) have been developed to store and efficiently utilize energy, transitioning from the traditional method of producing and consuming energy immediately via fossil fuels and generators. With the advancement of this technology, Battery Management System(BMS) that manage Li-ion batteries at the cell level play a crucial role in enhancing battery performance, lifespan, and safety. Among the BMS functions, cell balancing, which aligns the imbalanced voltages of cells, is essential for optimizing capacity in devices like ESS. It ensures all cells maintain the same voltage and capacity, improving performance and output stability. Therefore, this paper examines the operational characteristics of the cell balancing method within BMS when charging an imbalanced Li-ion battery.
