  • The role of electroencephalography (EEG) in the development of brain-computer interface (BCI) technology is increasing. In particular, the importance of the analysis of event related potential (ERP) in various situations is becoming more significant in BCI technology. Studies on past maze and fire situations have been difficult due to risks and realistic problems. Nowadays, according to the development of virtual reality (VR) technology, realistic maze and fire situation can be realized. In this study, ERPs (P300, and evented related negativity) were analyzed to collect objective data on case determination in an emergency situation. In order to overcome the limitations of previous methods that evaluating the EEG frequency change, ERPs were derived by setting epochs for stimulation and standardizing them, and evaluated for ERPs in this study. P3a and P3b, which are subcomponents of P300, were analyzed and the evented related negativity (ERN) was analyzed together with error positivity (Pe). As a result of the study, statistically significant changes of ERPs were observed, this result, which has little related research, is considered to be meaningful as medical basic statistics.

  • The façade is an important, complex, and costly part of a building, performing multiple objectives of value to the occupants, like protecting from wind, rain, sunlight, heat, cold, and sound. But the frequency of façade fires in large buildings is alarming, and has multiplied by seven times worldwide over the last three decades, to a current rate of 4.8 fires per year. High-performing polymer based materials allow for a significant improvement across several objectives of a facade (e.g., thermal insulation, weight, and construction time) thereby increasing the quality of a building. However, all polymers are flammable to some degree. If this safety problem is to be tackled effectively, then it is essential to understand how different materials, and the façade as a whole, perform in the event of a fire. This paper discusses the drivers for flammability in facades, the interaction of facade materials, and current gaps in knowledge. In doing so, it aims to provide an introduction to the field of façade fires, and to show that because of the drive for thermal efficiency and sustainability, façade systems have become more complex over time, and they have also become more flammable. We discuss the importance of quantifying the flammability of different façade systems, but highlight that it is currently impossible to do so, which hinders research progress. We finish by putting forward an integral framework of design that uses multi-objective optimization to ensure that flammability is minimized while considering other objectives, such as maximizing thermal performance or minimizing weight.

  • When the national disaster accident is occurred, it is difficult to maintain the mutual cooperation systems. In order to solve the problems, the construction of the national unified command wireless network is necessary. In this paper, the specified state of the characteristic frequency of the digital TRS wireless network constructed recently is investigated and analyzed. Through the analysis, the problems of the construction of the national unified command wireless network are grasped. To solve the problem, it is proposed that the digital TRS wireless network is connected with the satellite communication network, and connected with the existing wireless network, LMR. In the concretely it is proposed that the natural unified wireless network should be proceeded step by step. At first, for 2 years the existing networks of the Fire Fighting Agency, the Police, the Forest Service and so on must be utilized and prepared to link with TRS. The second, for 2 years it is carried forward a scheme to maintain the properties of the agencies concerned. Further, it must be prepared to connect with satellite network. At third, for 2 years all agencies concerned with the fire fighting and the disaster prevention must be unified, and the systems have to be promoted for the p1an of linkage of TRS network and the existing network. Next the agencies concerned have to be unified and the authority has to be intensified. When a disaster is occurred, the National Emergency Management Agency has to play a central role. In a local area it has to be given the Fire Fighting Agency an authority and a duty to get ready for each emergency situation.

  • Accidental oil and gas leak is a critical concern for the offshore industry because it can lead to severe consequences and as a result, it is imperative to evaluate the probabilities of occurrence of the consequences of the leakage in order to assess the risk. Event Tree Analysis (ETA) is a technique to identify the consequences that can result from the occurrence of a hazardous event. The probability of occurrence of the consequences is evaluated by the ETA, based on the failure probabilities of the sequential events. Conventional ETA deals with events with crisp failure probabilities. In offshore applications, it is often difficult to arrive at a single probability measure due to lack of data or imprecision in data. In such a scenario, fuzzy set theory can be applied to handle imprecision and data uncertainty. This paper presents fuzzy ETA (FETA) methodology to compute the probability of the outcomes initiated due to oil/gas leak in an actual offshore-onshore installation. Post FETA, sensitivity analysis by Fuzzy Weighted Index (FWI) method is performed to find the event that has the maximum contribution to the severe sequences. It is found that events of 'ignition', spreading of fire to 'equipment' and 'other areas' are the highest contributors to the severe consequences, followed by failure of 'leak detection' and 'fire detection' and 'fire water not being effective'. It is also found that the frequency of severe consequences that are catastrophic in nature obtained by ETA is one order less than that obtained by FETA, thereby implying that in ETA, the uncertainty does not propagate through the event tree. The ranking of severe sequences based on their probability, however, are identical in both ETA and FETA.

  • 본 논문에서는 풍력발전기 너셀 내부에서 발생 가능한 화재를 예방하거나 신속하게 대응하기 위하여 광대역 전력선통신시스템 기반 화재 예방시스템을 구현하고 실증실험을 수행한 결과를 제시한다. 이를 위하여 고속 전력선통신용 주파수 대역에서 우수한 손실 특성을 가지는 유도성 통신 연결장치도 제작하였다. 구현된 시스템은 터빈 너셀에 설치된 온도, 불꽃, 연기센서 등 다양한 센서 정보와 열화상 이미지를 전력선통신시스템을 통하여 지상관제소에 고속 전송함으로써 너셀 내부의 환경변화를 실시간으로 감시할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 구현된 시스템은 이미 설치된 기존 안전시스템과 연동하여 풍력발전기 화재감시 및 예방체계의 신뢰성을 크게 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to present an evacuation performance analysis model that can derive vulnerable evacuation spaces with considering the movement behavior as per the elderly groups in the event of a fire in a geriatric hospital. Methods: The evacuation characteristics of geriatric hospital users were investigated through the review of precedent studies. First, the occupant conditions and the evacuation scenario were set to analyze a study target hospital. Then, the evacuation simulation was carried out considering the group types and the density of each group. Finally, an evacuation performance analysis model according to the group type was presented based on the simulation results. Results: The results of this study are as follows: (1) The evacuation performance according to the group type is to be clarified through the suggested study model. (2) It is necessary to secure a ramp or an emergency elevator to distribute the evacuation personnel at the design stage because congestion occurs due to collisions between evacuees on the stairs and delays the evacuation time. (3) It is necessary to consider the evacuation stairs and openings of sufficient size by analyzing the frequency of congestion occurrence and the escape routes of occupants in advance to identify the space where the evacuation flow overlaps. Implications: It is expected that the study result is to be used as primary data for studies that consider the elderly and clustering evacuation behavior in the event of a fire in a geriatric hospital.

  • 산지가 약 83%의 면적을 차지하는 강원지역에서는 매년 하절기에 장마, 태풍, 집중호우에 기인한 산사태 및 토석류와 같은 사면재해로 인해 많은 피해가 발생하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강원도 지역의 사면재해를 유발하는 강우의 특성 분석을 위해 사면재해자료, 강우자료, 산불발생자료를 수집하여 DATABASE를 구축하였다. 구축된 자료에 대한 분석결과, 사면재해는 강우가 거의 없는 시점에 발생하는 경우가 많았으며, 사변재해를 유발하는 강우는 재해발생일의 강우보다 선행강우가 더욱 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 산불발생지역에서는 산불미발생생지역에 비하여 더 작은 강우에서도 사면재해가 발생하고 있으며 특히 산불발생지역에서는 2년이하의 재현강우에서 재해 발생빈도가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다.

  • 산불은 연소 과정에서 다양한 오염물질을 배출하여 심각한 환경 문제를 초래할 수 있다. 최근 지구 온난화와 기후변화의 영향으로 전 세계적으로 산불의 규모와 빈도가 증가하여 환경에 미치는 영향 역시 급증할 것으로 예상된다. 한국은 산불 발생이 빈번한 동해안 지역에 원자력 발전소가 위치하고 있어, 중대 사고에 대비하여 산불 환경에서 방사성 핵종의 거동 특성에 대한 이해가 요구된다. 본 리뷰 논문에서는 산불이 지하수 토양 환경에 가져오는 변화와 오염 특성을 검토하고, 산불로 변화된 지하수 토양 환경에서의 방사성 핵종 거동을 고찰하였다. 특히, 변화된 지중환경의 여러 특성 중 방사성 핵종의 거동에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 요인들을 고려하였으며, 보다 구체적인 메커니즘 이해를 위해 산불이 초래하는 지하수 토양 환경 변화와 오염에 대한 연구의 필요성을 기술하였다.
