  • During the transportation of chemicals, quantitative risk assessment for chemical leakage accidents caused by traffic accidents was carried out and the appropriateness of chemical transportation route was evaluated. The quantitative risk assessment method applied to the chemical leakage accidents that may occur in the chemical handling equipments installed in the workplace was presented and applied to the chemical transportation. By analyzing the number of traffic accidents in transportation vehicles, the probability of chemical leakage accidents during chemical transportation was predicted and applied to the quantitative risk assessment of chlorine gas leakage accidents that may occur when transporting liquified chlorine bombe using vehicles. As a result, the most appropriate route of transporting the liquefied chlorine bombe was suggested on the basis of risk.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze physics problem solving processes to qualitative and quantitative problems in the area of 'Force and Motion' in high school science. The students who have already learned the area of 'Force and Motion' during the first semester of 10th grade have taken physics test to choose students who have basic knowledge of physics. Eight students were selected. After explaining the purpose and the procedure of this study, think-aloud method was instructed to the students, and the students practiced it. After that, the students solved three problems in each quantitative and qualitative type. Then, the questionnaire of belief system on physics and physics problem solving and the prerequisite knowledge test were administered. By recording the students' solving processes, protocol was made and analyzed. After solving problems, the students expressed their confidence, intimacy, and preference. Quantitative problems needed much time at planning step than qualitative problems did. Moreover, solving time was longer and repeating frequency was more than those of qualitative problems. It seemed because even though the students qualitatively knew the answer, they should determine the given quantitative conditions, consider formulae, and recall the specific numbers. Since the students usually got access to many quantitative items in their physics study, they were accustomed to solve problems by using formulae. In addition, they put confidence in formulae, so they tended to solve problems quantitatively. As the result, they preferred quantitative problems to qualitative problems.

  • A quantitative risk assessment method for quantitatively evaluating the fire risk in designing a road tunnel disaster prevention facilities has been introduced to evaluate the appropriateness of a disaster prevention facility in a large tunnel through which all vehicle types pass. However, since the quantitative risk assessment method of the developed can be applied only to the large sectional area tunnels (large tunnels), it is necessary to develop a quantitative risk assessment method for road tunnels passing only small cars which has recently been constructed or planned. In this study, fire accidents scenarios and quantitative risk assesment method for small road tunnels through small cars only which is based on the methods for existing road tunnels (large tunnels). And the risk according to the distance between cross passage is evaluated. As a result, in order to satisfy the societal risk assessment criteria, the distance of the appropriate distance between cross passages was estimated to be 200 m, and the effect of the ventilation system of the large port exhaust ventilation system was quantitatively analyzed by comparing the longitudinal ventilation system.

  • Recently, the entertainment programs with vocal skills assessment through the broadcasting and cable broadcasting have become very popular. But, in spite of higher popularity, present performance evaluation methods including musical sympathy of the pop singers and plain performers in broadcastings are absolutely dependent on the subjective feelings of audience assessors who evaluate the musical sympathy in these programs. For solving this problem, quantitative methods instead of subjective methods in the entertainment industries for evaluating pop singer's performance and musical sympathy are taken as important issues and social demands. For this, in this paper, we propose a visual and quantitative evaluation method by applying ICT technologies that can be evaluated in all areas of musical sympathy as well as a singer's assessment.

  • The objective of this study was to establish a quantitative count method of Vibrio vulnificus cells. Plate count method is often used to count the number of V. vulnificus cells using thiosulfate citrate bile salts sucrose (TCBS) agar plate. However, this method is unsuitable for counting V. vulnificus cells due to growth inhibition and cell injuries in TCBS medium. In this study, we suggested a most probable number-polymerase chain reaction (MPN-PCR) method using alkaline peptone water medium for the quantification of V. vulnificus. This MPN-PCR method showed 2 log higher cell number than TCBS agar plate method. Similar results were also found in the control using, Luria-Bertani agar containing 2% NaCl. Thus, this MPN-PCR method can be used a sensitive method for quantitative count of viable V. vulnificus cells in fish and shellfish samples.

  • In order to develope the method of quantitative determination of lipid hydroperoxide in human blood serum, we tried the ferrothiocyanate method to total lipids extracted by Bligh-Dyer method and obtained the results as follows. 1. The maximum absorbance showed at the concentration of Mohr's solution, 0.127M at pH 1.70 and ammonium thiocyanate solution, 3.95M in the ferrothiocyanate method. 2. When hydrogen peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, and oxidized linoleic acid were added to serum, and extracted them by Bligh-Dyer method to examine the extraction efficiency, we confirmed that cumene hydroperoxide and oxidized linoleic acid were extracted in $CHCI_3$ phase, and hydrogen peroxide in $MeOH-H_2O$ phase, respectively. 3. The concentration of lipid hydroperoxide of total lipids extracted from normal adult serum was $2.0{\times}10^{-5}M$, and increased proportionally the concentration of lipid hydroperoxide by increasing the amount of serum. 4. When we compared the total lipids extracted by Bligh-Dyer method and total lipids extracted after lipoprotein is precipitated by Yagi method in human blood serum, the concentration of lipid hydroperoxide was showed nearly the same value. From our results, we concluded that the concentration of lipid hydroperoxide in human blood serum could be determined quantitatively by ferrothiocyanate method.

  • An experimental study has been performed to investigate the heat transfer characteristics of fin and tube heat exchanger. The existing transient and steady methods are very difficult to apply for the measurements of heat transfer coefficients of a thin heat transfer model. In this study the lumped capacitance method was adopted. The heat transfer coefficients were measured by using the lumped capacitance method based on the liquid crystal thermography. The method is validated through impinging jet and flat plate flow experiments. The two experiments showed that the results of the lumped capacitance method with polycarbonate model showed very good agreements with those of the transient method with acryl model. The lumped capacitance method showed similar results regardless of the thickness of polycarbonate model. The method was also applied for the heat transfer coefficient measurements of a fin and tube heat exchanger. The quantitative heat transfer coefficients of the plate fin were successfully obtained. As the frontal velocity increased, the heat transfer coefficients were increased, but the color-band shape showed similar patterns regardless of frontal velocity.

  • As the γ-ray energy increases, a reconstructed image becomes noisy and blurred due to the penetration of the γ-ray through the coded mask. Therefore, the thickness of the coded mask was increased for high energy regions, resulting in severely decreased the performance of the detection efficiency due to self-collimation by the mask. In order to overcome the limitation, a modified uniformly redundant array γ-ray imaging system using dual anti-mask method was developed, and its performance was compared and evaluated in high-energy radiation region. In the dual anti-mask method, the two shadow images, including the subtraction of background events, can simultaneously contribute to the reconstructed image. Moreover, the reconstructed images using each shadow image were integrated using a hybrid update maximum likelihood expectation maximization (h-MLEM). Using the quantitative evaluation method, the performance of the dual anti-mask method was compared with the previously developed collimation methods. As the shadow image which was subtracted the background events leads to a higher-quality reconstructed image, the reconstructed image of the dual anti-mask method showed high performance among the three collimation methods. Finally, the quantitative evaluation method proves that the performance of the dual anti-mask method was better than that of the previously reconstruction methods.
