  • The objective of this paper is to describe a systematic accident scenario analysis method(SASA) adept at creating accident scenarios for the design of safer products. This approach was inspired by the Quality Function Deployment(QFD) method, which is conventionally used in quality management. In this study, the QFD provides a formal and systematic scheme to devise accident scenarios while maintaining objectivity. SASA consists of three key stages to be broken down into a series of consecutive steps:(1) developing an accident analysis tableau,(2) devising the accident scenarios using the accident analysis tableau,(3) performing a feasibility test, a clustering process and a patterning process, and finally(4) performing quantitative evaluation of each accident scenario. The SASA was applied to a case study of child safety seats. The accident analysis tableau devised 2828(maximum) accident scenarios from all possible relationships between the hazard factors and situation characteristics. Among them, 270 scenarios were devised through the feasibility test and the clustering process. The patterning process reduced them to 29 patterns representative of all accident scenarios. Based on an intensive analysis of the accident patterns, design guidelines for a safer child safety seat were recommended. The implications of the study on the child safety seat case were then discussed.

  • Concerns about meat quality, including chicken meat, for the human diet has led to many attempts to manipulate the carcass fat and increase the eating quality. For actual eating quality, the birds must be grown and finished in a manner that results in meat that are tender, succulent and of good flavor, as well as being free from any foreign taint, flavor or safety hazard. Tenderization treatment with high voltage(820V) electrical stimulation and prechill muscle tensioning would improve the tenderness of chicken meat. Proper programs for the withdrawal of feed and water require a team approach for maximizing yield of meat and minimizing carcass contamination. Also effding of supplemental levels of-tocopherol to poultry with vegetable or fish oils increases of desirable polyunsaturated fatty acid(PUFA) content and stablizes the meat against rancidity and fish off-flavors. The nutritional effects of varying dietary ingredients on broiler carcass fat content are also important. Increasing the levels of energy in the ration increases the carcass fat content, while increasing the proteing levels decreases carcass fat content. Supplement-tation of poultry diets with amino acids such as methionine, lysine, glycine and tryptophan as well as amino acid such as well as amino acid mixtures can reduce body fat deposition. Normal stress leads to chicken muscular damage resulting in reduced meat quality, but this can be controlled by preslaughter management practices. Feed manufactures can utilize ntilize nutrient modulation to control pale soft exudative(PSE)syndrome. Finally, the success in poultry meat production depends on the consistent achievement of carefully selected levels of quality. Quality assurance should be the wider function of incorporating quality into the production system and the combination of motivating quality into actions and operations.

  • A study was conducted in order to develope HACCP model in school lunch in Korea. Results: 1. Of 22 menus 4(18%) were non heating processes (#1), 2(9%) were food handling by using hands (#2), and 16(73%) were heating processes (#3). Of 279 menus 36(12.9%) belong to process #1, 8(2.9%) to process #2, and 235(84%) to process #3. 2. The critical control points for process #1 were contamination by hands of food handlers, and unsanitary food preparation habits of food handlers. Those for process #2 were improper heating temperature, contaminations by food handlers' hands, and unsanitary food handling habits, and cross contamination by unclean utensils and equipment. 3. Management criteria for the CCPs were conditions of food storage, refrigeration, freezing, food cooking temperature, personal hygiene, washing and sanitization of utensils and equipment. 4. Monitoring criteria for CCPs were observation, temperature checking, inspection of utensils and equipment, and practice of good personal hygiene. 5. Corrective actions were refusal of unsafe products, correction of improper temperature, proper cleaning and sanitization, and proper reheating time and temperature.

  • 본 연구에서는 미국 상장은행의 자산 부채포오트폴리오 구성의 위험분산(risk diversification)과 도덕적해이(moral hazard)에 관한 실증적 분석을 행하였다. 실증적 분석의 결과 은행의 금기(今期)의 위험분산과 금기(今期) 이후의 위험추구 간에는 유의적인 양(陽)의 관계가 있음을 발견하였다. 즉 위험분산의 정도가 커서 투자가들로부터 파산가능성이 낮을 것으로 여겨지며, 따라서 위험증가에 따른 자본조달비용(예금이자율)의 증가라는 시장에서의 억제기능(market discipline)이 효과적으로 부과되지 못하는 은행들은 이러한 이점들을(특히 시장관련-체계적) 위험성이 높은 정책을 추구함으로써 수익을 증가시키려는 도덕적해이의 동기를 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 선행연구에서의 논리대로 은행규모의 대형화가 자산 부채포오트폴리오 구성의 위험분산을 크게 하는 주요한 원인 중의 하나라면, 본 연구에서의 결과는 은행산업의 불건전한 재무구조와 그로 인한 금융질서의 혼란, 나아가 국가경제 전체의 혼란을 겪고 있는 한국 금융산업의 현주소, 즉 부실은행을 퇴출시키고 인수 합병에 의한 대형선도 은행(leading banks)중심으로 은행산업을 재편하는 한국금융산업의 구조조정에 있어 간과되어서는 안 될 중요한 정책적 시사점을 제시해 주고 있다고 하겠다. 즉 도덕적해이의 감소에 대한 제도적인 유인장치가 없는 단순한 인수 합병에 의한 은행의 자산규모의 증가가 반드시 은행산업의 구조적 안정에 기여할 것이라고 기대할 수는 없을 것이다. 대형은행의 자산 부채포오트폴리오 구성의 위험분산의 이점과 이로 인한 투자가들의 대형은행의 위험추구행위에 대한 감시동기의 부족, 이로 인한 도덕적해이가 필연적으로 발생하는 현상이라면, 도덕적해이의 감소에 대한 추가적인 유인책 없는 단순한 자산규모의 증가는 인수 합병을 통하여 탄생한 대형선도 은행들의 또 다른 도덕적해이를 낳을 가능성이 크기 때문이다.

  • Drawing on its extensive experience with natural disasters, Japan has been dispatching Japan Disaster Relief (JDR) team to disaster-stricken countries to provide specialist assistance in rescue and medical operations. The JDR team has assisted in the wake of disasters including the 2004 Indian Ocean Earthquake and the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake in China. Information about the affected area is essential for a rapid disaster response. However, it can be difficult to gather information on damages in the immediate post-disaster period. To help overcome this problem, we have built on an Earthquake Damage Estimation System. This system makes it possible to produce distributions of the earthquake's seismic intensity and structural damage based on pre-calculated data such as landform and site amplification factors for Peak Ground Velocity, which are estimated from a Digital Elevation Model, as well as population distribution. The estimation result can be shared with the JDR team and with other international organizations through communications satellite or the Internet, enabling more effective rapid relief operations.

  • 방재마을 구축 및 운영은 구조적 및 비구조적 재해예방사업을 통하여 지역의 전체적인 방재능력을 향상시키는 것을 기본방향으로 방재마을 구축에 따라 구조적 및 비구조적 컨텐츠가 활용된다. 방재마을 조성에 따른 구조적 및 비구조적 사업은 서로 상호보완적으로 작용되며, 이를 통해 각각의 재해유형과의 연계 및 컨텐츠 제시로 방재력향상을 도모한다. 현재 도시화로 인해 풍수해 발생시 우수유출량 증가로 침수피해 위험이 가중되고 있다. 이에 도시가 돌발성 집중강우에 의한 도시형 침수로부터 주민의 인명과 재산을 보호하기 위해 우수를 신속하게 저류시켜 우수유출량을 줄이는 대책을 수립해야 하며, 풍수해에 대비한 방재마을 구축 컨텐츠 및 운영방안에는 하천정비 및 하도개수, 하수도 정비 및 확충, 홍수조절, 저류지설치, 우수저류 및 우수침투시설 설치 등이 있다. 방재마을 운영 및 활성화를 위한 비구조적 사업은 재해예방을 위한 주민 기업 단체자구노력, 풍수해 예방주민활동, 침수피해 주민예방 활동, 지역자율방재단 운영, 주민주도의 추진체계 구축 등이 있다. 성공적인 방재마을만들기를 위해서는 주민주도의 추진체계를 확립하도록 하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하며, 방재마을에 있어 주민참여가 방재도시만들기와 밀착되어 전개될 때 방재마을의 운영 및 관리 효과가 향상된다. 따라서 구조적 운영방안과 함께 주민추진체계를 중심으로 한 방재마을 구축 및 운영을 통해 방재마을 활성화를 도모할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • A simulated network protocol provides the capability of distributed simulation to a generic simulator. Through this, full coverage of management of data and service handling among separated simulators is achieved. The distributed simulation environment is much more conducive to handling simulation load balancing and hazard treatment than a standalone computer. According to the simulated network protocol, one simulator takes on the role of server and the other simulators take on the role of client, and client is controlled by server. The purpose of the simulated network protocol is to seamlessly connect multiple simulator instances into a single simulation environment. This paper presents the development of a simulated network (simNetwork) that provides the capability of distributed simulation to a generic simulator (GenSim), which is a software simulator of satellites that has been developed by the Korea Aerospace Research Institute since 2010, to use as a flight software validation bench for future satellite development.

  • The purpose of this study is to derive the optimal methodology estimating the changes of fluvial hydraulic characteristics due to semi-covering work of urban stream. First, after collecting the data of the daily maximum rainfall of Chungju gaging station, the frequency analysis was carried out with frequency factor method, which includes normal, two-parameter and three-parameter lognormal, Gumbel-Chow, pearson type III, log-pearson type III distribution, and the goodness of fit test was executed by $x^2$-test and Kormogorov-Smimov test. Using the SCS method, the effective rainfall was estimated and the peak flow was calculated by the area-routing method. The HEC-2 model was applied to calculate water surface profiles for steady, gradually varied flow at Kyohyun river system in Chungju city. The model was applied to floodplain and riverbed management to evaluate flood way encroachments and to delineate flood hazard by riverside roadway construction. The model also was used to evaluate effects on water surface profiles of river improvement and levees as well as the presence of bridges or other hydraulic structures in the floodplain.
