  • It is a general principle that the plaintiff takes burden of proof about negligence and causation in a civil compensation litigation. And it is the same in a medical malpractice lawsuit. Korean courts have made diverse efforts to mitigate the plaintiff's duty to prove in medical malpractice lawsuits under the name of justice and impartiality. One of those theoretical attempt is 'presumption of causation'. The Supreme Court, since 1995, has developed a new logic for the theory of 'presumption of causation' which is characterized by a phrase "layman's common sense". The Court presumes the defendant's negligence and causation when the plaintiff alleges and proves the facts which can be pointed out and expressed by a layman with common sense. And if the defendant fails to prove that the result was caused by other fact than own medical activities, the defendant shall be defeated. I realize that this theory has problem for justice and impartiality. I would say that two fators should be considered and added to this logic. First,are defendant's acts generally belonging to gross negligence which would cause that kind of bad result? Second, is it recognized that there would be the causation generally and statistically between the cause and the result?

  • This article analyzes the case (2008Da16776) which has the issue how patients have to prove causal relationship when patients claim against pharmaceutical companies alleging that patients were infected with virus due to contaminated blood products. The Supreme court held that: (1) if patients prove that they didn't have symptoms suggesting virus infection before administration of blood products, the virus infection had been confirmed after administration of blood products, and there were significant potential of contamination of the blood products with the virus, the defect in blood products or the negligence of pharmaceutical company in making blood products shall be presumed to cause the infection of the victim. (2) The pharmaceutical companies could reverse the presumption by proving the blood products were not contaminated, but the fact that the victims were treated with the blood products manufactured by other companies or had received blood transfusions is not enough to reverse the presumption. The case is the first decision whether the burden of proof about causal relationship could be reduced in pharmaceutical product liability lawsuit. Hereafter pharmaceutical product liability cases, it would be necessary to reduce the burden of proof about causal relationship in order to make substantive equality between patients and pharmaceutical companies.

  • To succeed the claim of medical negligence, the plaintiff should establish the medical profession's fault, and the causation between the fault and damages. The faults are judged on lege artis, which is based on expert witness. However, judges often infer the faults and causations from circumstantial evidences and patients' injuries. This presumptions depend on the law of nature(Erfahrungsgesetz). The law of nature can explain the typical development of the event. If the circumstantial evidences were in accordance with that, the faults and causations would be able to be recognized by the judges. Therefore the standards of comparison such as lege artis or the law of nature play an important role for medical negligence liabilities to be imputed to doctors or hospitals. The factual elements necessary to assume the fault is similar to those of the causation, for the concept of the fault is correlated with that of the causation. The elements include the temporal and spatial proximity between damages and defendant's medical treatments, no existence of other causations, the probability of bed results developed by the medical treatments, and so on. These enable the fault and causation to be assumed at the same times.

  • In modern society which changes from quantity-seeking society to value-seeking one, people's various lifestyles have great effect on consumption patterns and work as an important factor in choosing hotels. The fact that design hotels, which provide unique experiences with differentiated and sensitive designs by reflecting various lifestyles, recently attract attention can be understood in the same context. As a matter of fact, design hotels recently serve as destinations as they become cultural and artistic icons which reflect customer lifestyles. Especially, the designs of lobby spaces in hotels play deciding role in customers' choices while representing the nature of hotels. In this respect, under the premise that the kinds of accumulated experiences are different depending on lifestyles and preferences for specific interior spaces are influenced by association mechanism formed by experiences, this study analyzed lobby spaces of design hotels which focus on specific lifestyles from the perspective of association mechanism based on experiences. As the method of analysis, this study classified the types of lifestyles and conducted case analysis to investigate what association mechanism works to enhance the preference of design hotels by types. Study classified lifestyles into experiential activity type, social meeting type, fashion-pursuing type and hideout-preferring type and analyzed cases of lobby designs in design hotels. The results of this case analysis are as follows; First, experiential activity type mainly utilized quasi-association and approach association through senses and social meeting type utilized quasi-association and memory association through emotions while fashion-pursuing type utilized quasi-association and presumption association through intuition and hideout-preferring type utilized quasi-association and approach association through thoughts. Second, it was found that most lobby designs are characterized by association mechanism in visual formative nature and that in temporal spatial nature working in complex way, and, through such process of association expansion, space stories are created. Stories of spaces created this way become unique identities of design hotels that provide new experiences for customers.

  • To verify the existing theory, non-propagating crack(NPC) does not exist in Ti which fulfills the good conditions for being of NPC, NPC detection in Ti was tried out. Also, the conception of fatigue limit in Ti and a main cause for NPC being were inquired. NPC was detected in both sharp notch root ( $\rho$=0.02mm) and micro pit (diameter = 0.25mm) which held fast to the end under stressing of fatigue limit. Therefore, the existing theory was identified as mistake. But, NPC can not be detected in smooth specimen. This fact would be due to the presumption that NPC is very small or crack does not initiate in smooth specimen. Anyway, the fatigue limit of Ti does not correspond to critical stress of crack initiation but correspond to critical stress of NPC growth. Measurement on the COD of NPC in Ti showed that the crack tip was closed even under the peak stress level at fatigue limit. But, after stress relieving annealing crack tip was opened. Consequently, compressive residual stress which is induced around the crack tip is considered to be the factor causing the NPC being.

  • 병원감염 사례에 관한 판결의 주류적 태도는 병원감염 발생으로 인한 손해의 분담을 사실상 환자 측에 전가하는 문제가 있다고 판단되므로, 손해의 공평 타당한 분담을 그 지도 원리로 하는 손해배상제도의 이념에 비추어 환자 측의 증명책임을 대폭 완화하기 위한 방법을 강구할 필요성이 있다. 이와 관련하여 진료계약을 민법상 전형계약으로 규정하고, 병원감염과 같은 의료 측이 전적으로 지배할 수 있었던 경우에는 일반적 진료상 위험이 실현된 때 진료자의 오류가 추정된다고 명문으로 과실추정규정을 둔 독일민법을 검토하였다. 진료계약은 매우 빈번하고 광범위하게 일반 국민의 실생활에서 체결되고 있으며, 그로 인한 분쟁도 다양하게 발생하고 있으므로, 진료계약을 독일과 같이 민법의 전형계약으로 규정함으로써 계약 내용과 분쟁 발생 시 증명책임 등에 관해 규율할 필요성이 있다. 병원감염 사건의 경우 법률에 의해 과실을 추정하고, 병원감염 예방을 위한 노력을 철저히 시행한 기관에 한하여 병원감염 사고로 인한 손해가 발생한 경우 그 비용을 지원하도록 사회보험을 통한 제도적 보완이 필요하다고 생각되며, 향후 이에 관한 면밀한 연구와 검토가 요구된다.

  • 하천유역에 있어 설계홍수량의 결정은 치수적인 측면에서 매우 중요한 일이다. 유역의 대소와 중요도에 따라서 하천의 설계홍수량이 산정이 된다. 갈수록 홍수의 피해정도가 심해지고 홍수에 대한 방어의 중요성이 더욱 가중되고 있는 현실에서 설계홍수량의 추정은 매우 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 특히 홍수량을 산정하는 데 있어 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것은 강우량이다. 그러나 똑같은 강우량이라 할지라도 유역의 특성에 따라 산정되는 홍수량은 상이하게 된다. 유역의 특성이 홍수량의 산정에 있어 영향이 크다는 것은 선행 연구의 결과와 경험에 의하여 확인이 된 사실이다. 그러나 많은 하천들이 각각의 유역특성을 가지고 있으나 이들과 산정된 설계홍수량의 관계가 어떤 형태로 이루어져 있는 가에 대한 연구는 아직 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기왕에 하천정비기본계획에 의해 산정된 설계홍수량과 지형인자들이 어떤 상관성을 가지고 있는 가에 대하여 연구하여 미계측유역이나 하천계획이 수립되지 않은 중소하천 유역의 설계홍수량 추정에 있어 추가적인 정보의 제공측면에서 유역의 지형인자와 설계홍수량과의 상관성을 조사하였다.

  • 도로의 평면곡선부는 선형 설계시 직선부와 달리 여러 가지 요소를 추가적으로 고려하며 확폭의 문제도 이중의 하나이다. 확폭은 차량 뒷바퀴가 앞바퀴의 궤적을 따라 주행하지 않고 이탈하는 궤도이탈(offtracking)현상 때문에 발생하고, 곡선부 설계시 이러한 현상을 반영하여야 운전자 안전성을 보장할 수 있다. 특히 대형차량 운행이 빈번한 산업도로나. 곡선반경이 작은 산악지역 간선도로의 경우 궤도이탈현상으로 인해 곡선부 사고위험이 증가하기 때문에 확폭 필요성이 강조된다. 본 연구에서는 굴절차량 궤도이탈모형 이론 및 확폭 설치 기준에 관련된 국내외 연구 결과를 비교·검토하여 도로의 기하구조와 차량의 속도를 감안한 현실적인 동적 궤도이탈모형(Dynamic Offtracking Model)을 개발하여 이 모형을 이용한 확폭량 산정 방법을 제시하였다. 본 연구로부터 얻어진 성과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 견인차와 피견인차의 동적 거동에 편경사영향을 반영할 수 있는 궤도이탈모형을 개발하였다. 둘째, 개발된 동적 궤도이탈모형을 이용하여 우리나라 실정에 맞는 새로운 확폭량 산정 방법을 개발하였다. 셋째, 개발된 모형을 이용하여 실제 궤도 이탈량과 확폭량을 산정하여 현재 사용되고 있는 우리나라 곡선부 확폭 설치기준의 타당성을 살펴보았다.
