Various methods have been used for safety and reliability as it becomes more difficult to ensure safety owing to the increasing complexity and scale of systems. This study aims at making it easier and more efficient to discuss risks and countermeasures for completeness, review, and knowledge transfer by improving methods to create fault tree analyses which focus on the GSN [1], which are among the methods used to describe assurance cases. More specifically, the purpose of this study is to incorporate strategy and context, GSN concepts, along with reason, which is a new concept, into FTA; the study focuses on three points. One point is support for the safety designer to draw a mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive (MECE) FTA. The second is to make it easier to understand diagrams and meanings of FTA compared with the usual methods. The third is to make creating an FTA more efficient and to pass on existing know-how. Eventually, FTA can achieve completeness, review, and knowledge transfer. An introduction is provided in the first section. Next, the methodology covered in this paper is explained in the second section. The third section describes the proposed notation method based on two proposals made in this paper. In the fourth and fifth sections, results and discussion are provided, respectively. Finally, in the sixth section, conclusions are described.

지진격리교량은 내진설계가 도입된 이후 실무에서 많이 설계, 시공되고 있으나 현재 실무에서 제시하고 있는 설계결과는 불필요하게 높은 기능수행수준과 취성파괴메커니즘으로 내진설계개념에 부합하는 설계라 할 수 없다. 이는 기존의 설계관행인 하부구조의 과다한 강성과 내진설계방식의 인식부족에 기인한 것이다. 이 연구에서는 기존의 설계관행에 의해 설계된 지진격리교량을 선정하고, 동일한 교량에 격리받침 대신 강재받침을 사용한 강재받침교량을 설정하여 비교내진설계를 수행하였으며, 이로부터 내진설계에서 요구되는 성능수준을 확보하기 위한 각 교량의 내진설계절차를 제시하였다. 강재받침교량에 비해 지진격리교량은 시산법과 반복해석을 적용해야 하는 복잡한 설계절차가 요구되는 반면 상대적으로 높은 기능수행수준을 제공한다는 것을 확인하였다. 그러나 강재받침교량도 하부구조 강성을 조정하면 요구되는 기능수행수준을 만족할 수 있으므로, 연성파괴메커니즘의 확보가 불가능한 경우 지진격리교량을 대안설계로 고려하는 것이 합리적인 내진설계과정이라는 것을 제시하였다.

Rolling stock RAMS is a field of engineering which integrates reliability, availability, maintainability and safety (RAMS) characteristics into an inherent product design property through rolling stock system engineering process. It is implemented to achieve operational objectives successfully, and recently the RAMS has become a rapidly growing engineering discipline because it has a great potential to ensure safety and improve cost effectiveness. However, the Korean rolling stock industry has not yet implemented RAMS management in the rolling stock engineering process, despite the issue having been addressed since the introduction of the KTX. Thus, this paper discusses the processes, methods and techniques for RAMS assessment in three parts. Firstly, it outlines a process of the overall RAMS performance assessment for achieving technical RAMS design criteria. Secondly, it discusses a process for assessing the operational RAM and allocating the RAM. This paper also proposes a model for assessing safety-based risk management, which includes five analytic techniques for identifying the causes and consequences of a system failure. Finally, a case example is provided for the risk assessment of the pneumatic braking device.

Universal design is defined as the design process of products and environments usable by all people to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialized design. The benefits of universal design have been promoted primarily through illustrative 'success stories' of public, residential and occupational environments and products. While case examples may be informative, they may unfortunately be limited in terms of generality to other designs or tasks. Therefore, design methods and criteria that can be applied systematically in a range of situations to encourage universal design are needed. In addition, the seven principles of universal design are intended to guide the design process. The principles provide a framework that allows a systematic evaluation of new or existing designs and assists in educating both designers and consumers about the characteristics of more usable products and environments. However, exactly how these principles are incorporated into the design process has beenleft up to the designer. Since the introduction of universal design, designers have become familiar with the principles of universal design, and they have developed many products based on universal design. However, the principles of universal design are qualitative, which means designers cannot quantitatively evaluate their designs. Some have worked to develop more systematic ways to evaluate products and environments by providing design guidelines for each of the principles. However, recommendations have not yet been made regarding how to integrate performance measures of universal design into the product design process before the product is mass produced. Furthermore, there are sets of requirements regarding each user group that has different age and ability. Consequently, there is an urgent need for design methods, based on a better understanding of age and ability related factors, which will lead to a universally designed product or environment. The authors have proposed the PSD (Preference Set-Based Design) method that can generate a ranged set of feasible solutions (i.e., robust and flexible solution set) instead of single point solution that satisfies changing sets of design targets. The objective of this paper is to develop a general method for systematically supporting the universal design process. This paper proposes the applicability of PSD method to universal design. Here, the proposed method is successfully illustrated with a universal design problem.

The design of a building is a complex process that encompasses different fields: one of the most relevant is nowadays the energetic one, which has led to the introduction of new typologies of building envelopes. Among them, the Permeable Double Skin Façades (PDSF) are capable to reduce the solar impact and so to improve the energetic performances of the building. However, the aerodynamic characterization of a building with a PDSF is still little investigated in the current literature. The present paper proposes an experimental study to highlight the modifications induced by the outer porous façade in the aerodynamics of a building. A dedicated wind tunnel study is conducted on a rigid model of a prismatic high-rise building, where different façade configurations are tested. Specifically, the single-layer façade is compared to two PDSFs, the former realized with perforated metal and the latter with expanded metal. Outcomes of the tests allow estimating the cladding loads for all the configurations, quantifying the shielding effects ascribable to the porous layers that are translated in a significant reduction of the design pressure that could be up to 50%. Moreover, the impact of the PDSFs on the vortex shedding is investigated, suggesting the capability of the façade to suppress the generation of synchronised vortices and so mitigate the structural response of the building.

In this paper, a novel estimation technique for a robust adaptive control scheme is presented for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with a general set of uncertainty. For a class of introduced more extended semi-strict feedback forms which generalize the systems studied in recent years, a novel estimation technique is proposed to estimate the states of the fully nonlinear unmodeled dynamics without stringent conditions. With the introduction of powerful functions, the estimation error can be tuned to a desired small region around the origin via the estimator parameters. In addition, with some effective functions, a modified adaptive backstepping for dynamic uncertainties is presented to drive the output to an arbitrarily small region around the origin by an appropriate choice of the design parameters. With our proposed schemes, we can remove or relax the assumptions of the existing results.

The IMO has decided to proceed with the early introduction of EEDI Phase 3, a CO₂ emission regulation to prevent global warming. Measures to reduce CO₂ emissions for ships that can be applied immediately are required to achieve CO₂ reduction. We set six different CO₂ emission scenarios according to the type of ship and fuel, and designed a monoethanolamine-based CO₂ capture process for ships using a rate-based model of Aspen Plus v10. The simulation model using Aspen Plus was validated using pilot plant operation data. A ship inevitably tilts during operation, and the performance of a tilted column decreases as its height increases. When configuring the conventional CO₂ capture process, we considered that the required column heights were so high that performance degradation was unavoidable when the process was implemented on a ship. We applied a parallel column concept to lower the column height and to enable easy installation and operation on a ship. Simulations of the parallel column confirmed that the required column height was lowered to less than 3 TEU (7.8 m).

건설 프로젝트에서의 VE는 예산낭비와 비효율적 요인을 서전제거하는 유용한 도구로 활용되고 있다. 이에 따라 2006년부터 건설교통부에서는 "설계의경제성등검토"를 총공사비 100억원 이상으로 확대 시행하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 제도적 뒷받침이나 기술적인 노력에도 불구하고 국내 설계VE는 수행과정에서 문제점이 지적되고 있어 효과가 극대화되지 못하고 있다. 효과적인 설계VE팀 구성으로 설계VE의 성과를 극대화하기 위해서는 설계VE팀의 역량평가에 대한 체크리스트의 개발이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구는 설계VE팀의 역량평가 체크리스트 개발을 위한 기초자료로써 역량 평가항목을 도출하고 가중치를 산정하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 설계VE팀의 특성에 따른 역량인자를 도출하여 팀 지식, 팀워크스킬, 팀 태도로 구별하여 구성하였다. 도출된 역량인자의 중요도에 대해 1차 설문조사를 실시하여 신뢰도와 타당도를 검증하고, 그 결과로 도출된 제 1, 2, 3계층의 역량 평가항목에 대하여 계층 분석적 의사결정기법을 활용한 2차 설문조사를 실시하여 가중치를 산정하였다.
