The Advanced Power Reactor Plus(APR+), which is a GEN III+ reactor based on the APR1400, is being developed in Korea. In order to enhance the safety of the APR+, a passive auxiliary feedwater system(PAFS) has been adopted in the APR+. The PAFS replaces the conventional active auxiliary feedwater system(AFWS) by introducing a natural driving force mechanism while maintaining the system function of cooling the primary side and removing the decay heat. As the PAFS completely replaces the conventional AFWS, it is required to verify the cooling capacity of PAFS for the core damage frequency(CDF) evaluation. For this reason, this paper discusses the cooling performance of the PAFS during transient accidents. The test case and scenarios were picked from the result of the sensitivity analysis in APR+ Probabilistic Safety Assessment(PSA). The analysis was performed by the best estimate thermal-hydraulic code, RELAP5/.MOD3.3. This study shows that the plant maintains the stable state without the core damages under the given test scenarios. The results of PSA considering this analysis' results shows that the CDF values are decreased. The analysis results can be used for more realistic and accurate performance of a PSA.

The mutagenicity of pranoprofen, a new antiinflammatory agent primarily used in Japan, was evaluated by employing several different methods such as the Ames test, micronucleus test, and the sister chromatid exchange test. For the Ames test, various doses of pranoprofen (5 and 1 mg, 100, 10, and 1 ${\mu}$g per plate) were applied, with or without the mammalian liver S-9 fraction, to the S. typhimurium LT2. For the micronucleus test, 24 hours after administering the various doses of pranoprofen (200, 100, and 50 mg/kg) to male mice by aral intubation, the femura of each group were isolated and the bone marrow samples were prepared. The micronucleated red cells and the ratio of the polychromatic versus the normochroomatic cells were counted. For the sister chromatid exchange test, the maximal non-cytotoxic concentrations (10 to 0.1 mM pranoprofen) were applied to the culture media of the Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells for 24 hrs. The numbers of revertant colonies did not increase with the increasing doses of pranoprofen when teseted with various strains of S. typhimurium. In the micronucleus test employing mice, the pranoprofen was identkfied to be a non-clastogen and a non-spindle poison. In the sister chromatid exchange test employing the cultured CHO cells, the pranoprofen did not increase the incidences of chromosomal abnormality. Based on these results, pranoprofen was found to have no mutagenic activity.

본 논문에서는 내진설계가 고려되어 있지 않은 전력구를 포함한 기설 개착식 전력구 100개소를 대상으로, 정부의 요구수준(내진 특등급, 0.22 g)을 만족하는지 확인하기 위하여 내진성능 평가를 수행하였다. 내진성능 평가 결과, 대상 전력구들은 대부분 0.3-1 g의 내진성능을 보유하고 있는 것으로 나타나, 내진 특등급 수준을 만족하였으며 내진안전성을 확보하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 응답변위법에 의한 전력구의 내진성능 평가 방법 및 결과에 대한 타당성을 확인하고, 전력구의 내진 안전성을 검증하기 위한 지진응답 해석 및 구조실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 0.22 g 수준의 지진 하에서 응답변위법에 의한 상대변위는 지진응답 해석 결과보다 보수적이었으며, 실규모 구조실험에 의한 하중-변위 곡선 및 응답수정계수 산정 결과를 통해 전력구의 내진 안전성을 확인할 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the structural safety of the front-end loader for the 90 kW class of agricultural tractors in impact test conditions. Deformation and stress on the loader under the impact test conditions are analyzed using the commercial finite element analysis software ANSYS. In previous research dealing with the initial design of the loader, the maximum stress occurred in the mount and exceeded the yield strength of the material. In this paper, an improved design of the mount of the loader was proposed to reduce the stress concentration in the initial design. The safety of the improved design was verified by performing rigid-body dynamics analysis, transient structural analysis, and static structural analysis under three impact test conditions: a drop and catch test, a corner pull test, a corner push test. It was found that the local stress concentration in the mount that appeared in the initial design was greatly reduced in the improved design, and that the maximum stresses occurred in the three impact test conditions are smaller than the yield strength. It is expected that the design improvement of the mount proposed in this study and the method of analysis may be effectively used to enhance structural safety in the development of new model front loaders in the future.

The number of vehicle accidents related to the side impact has increased since 1990 in Korea, thus the side impact test has been performed as one of the major vehicle evaluations of the Korean New Car Assessment Program(KNCAP) in 2003. A total of 77 vehicles of eight different types(compact, small, semi-midsize, midsize, and large sedans and small, midsize, and large sports utility vehicles) were tested in side impact and side pole impact conditions. In this study, the head and thorax injury values(HICs and chest deflections) of the side impact tests performed between 2003 and 2013 were investigated in terms of vehicle type, test year, and test condition. The recent vehicles showed better safety performances(lower injury values) and similar injury patterns were obtained between side impact and pole side impact tests.

In the world, traffic accidents and environmental pollution caused by the increase of vehicles are becoming a serious social problem. According to the 2016 data published by the Korea Highway Traffic Authority, Korea owns 49.9 vehicles per 100 people. This is the 28th largest number among the 35 OECD member countries. In addition, the number of deaths from traffic accidents in Korea totaled 4,292, of which 1,714 were caused by traffic accidents involving vehicles and pedestrians. To reduce these human casualties, the automotive industry is constantly working on the development and commercialization of Adaptive Driver Assist System (ADAS). ADAS is the system providing convenience and safeness for drivers. In general, ADAS consists of Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Highway Driving Assist (HDA), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS). Among them, the AEB detects the possibility of collision by the vehicle itself and plays a role of avoiding the collision or reducing the damage through active braking. For such AEB, Euro NCAP has been developing test-evaluation methods for the vulnerable since 2017. Therefore, In this paper analyzes the scenario of Euro NCAP VRU Test Protocol v3.0.1, which will be established in 2020, and proposes test conditions according to the Korean road traffic law. In addition, the reliability of the proposed scenario and test conditions was verified by comparing and analyzing the proposed theoretical evaluation formulas and actual test results.
