This paper presents the development process for airbag safety devices fitted in motorcyclists' garments. Motorcycle riders often sustain multiple injuries in crashes since rider post-impact kinematics depend on several variables. This study proposes a newly inflatable safety system connected to the motorcycle by a cable. An airbag device with a mechanical triggering system is deployed when the cable detaches from its mounting clip. Airbag filling tests are performed to determine the mixing ratio of compressed gases with the severance of temperature. To estimate the airbag effectiveness to reduce riders' injuries, numerical analysis is performed using the finite element method. A comparative analysis (i.e., with and without the chosen device) was conducted to evaluate its protective efficacy. Prototype garments based on the proposed design have been created and have undergone sled tests. The proposed safety device could also be beneficial in accidents during other sports activities.

The vibration and shock of the opto-electronic protective device was induced mechanical failure or fail to work correctly. In order to identify the exciting frequency components of vibration and shock, vibration signals are measured and analyzed from the mechanical power press. In addition, the modal test for the opto-electronic protective device was performed to investigate the dynamic characteristics. Some FEM simulations were carried out and then anti vibration mount was made for opto-electronic protective device. Based on the results of simulations, some kind of rubber mounts were tested to demonstrate the reduction of vibration and shock. It was verified by the test that a considerable amount of vibration and shock were reduced.

Electro-Mechanical Ignition Safety Device(EMISD) for solid rocket motor is designed and manufactured. The EMISD utilizes a true rotary solenoid for arming mechanism and an electric squib(initiator) for generating ignition energy. In order to prove the ignition capability of the EMISD, 10-cc Closed Bomb Test(CBT) is performed, which measures the pressure built by high temperature and high pressure gas generated by operating EMISD.

This study was conducted an experiment for the thermal flow mechanism of the surrounding butane gas can and pressure change in butane can with oversized cookware. And numerical analysis was performed to analyze the process of heat transfer around butane can. Effect of radiant heat from small size cookware is very small. Thus small size cookware does not have a significant impact on the butane gas range safety. But radiant heat of oversized cookware is larger than small size cookware. Therefore it gives an adverse effect on the butane can. And when internal pressure of butane can is greater than about 406.8~447.2 kPa, a safety device of portable butane gas range were working. The causes of safety device working is because of trivet height. Trivet height is lowered, the radiant heat is increased. This radiant heat is to raise pressure of inside butane can. Experimental and numerical analysis results, the lower thermal conductivity of the cookware is greater the effects of radiant heat.

This paper presents a performance testing device for safety fences of domestic professional baseball stadiums. Safety fences of professional stadiums have been fabricated and installed without adhering to any safety regulations, safety fences demonstrate critically low safety performances and many outfielders are severely injured every season. In this study, we designed and fabricated a performance testing device for safety fences and investigated its validity and reproducibility. A HIC (head injury criterion) was used for the statistical analysis of colliding data. We found that the optimal expulsion pressure and eliminated the accelerometer by replacing it with a velocity sensor using an estimation of the correlation between the momentum data obtained from velocity sensor and the impulse data from the accelerometer.

This study is door safety device for the structural analysis are described. Recently emerged as a key point of the door safety and increase the need of a door safety device. In order to improvement this inconvenience, the door safety device was design and structural analysis by using CATIA. CATIA utilizes door safety device element model for displacement, stress and strain energy were obtained. Consideration of door open angles were $95^{\circ}$, $100^{\circ}$, $105^{\circ}$, $110^{\circ}$, $115^{\circ}$, $120^{\circ}$. These results will be provided to develop new concepts of door safety device as initial data.

This research investigates contact angle of Linear Guide Way through a experimental result and theoretical analysis. Since last ten years, most of researchers who concerned with the precision machinery and semiconductor device production etc. so the researches about Linear Guide Way have been unnoticed. The precision machinery and semiconductor device production system has the principle which transfers the mechanical moving to accuracy position control. The Linear Guide Way system has the principle which transfers mechanical moving to accuracy position control is very important to improve performance of the precision machinery and semiconductor device production system. So, In this research, in order to improvement for producing Linear Guide Way, bearing loading analysis and contact angle change through Linear Guide Way theoretical analysis and bearing modeling. Through this study, we may expect that there will be more improvement for producing Linear Guide Way.

This study suggests systematic procedures to improve safety policies on prevention of industrial accidents associated with industrial machines and devices. Specifically, new method of cause analysis of industrial accidents associated with industrial machines and devices is suggested and the related accident data are re-analyzed. Effectiveness of direct safety regulations such as safety certification, self-declaration of conformity, safety device regulation and safety inspection of industrial machines and devices are also analyzed. Based on those analysis results, transition from the current user-oriented safety device regulation to more balanced direct regulations on both manufacturer and user is suggested. Together with severity and frequency of industrial accidents, unit severity and unit frequency need to be taken into account to further assess the risk associated with a particular industrial machine or device. Balance between safety regulations will be realized by proper adjustment of lists of safety certification and inspection, and certification and inspection standards. This will also guarantee the maximum benefit over cost in such safety regulations.
