Abstract:
The aim of this study was to investigate home accidents among children and teenagers with regard to incidence and severity and to compare the accident rate at home with that of nursing homes/day-care centres. All accidents in the age group 0–19 years, in a defined population, were, during a period of one year, registered at public care centres. Our findings show that home accidents contributed to 26% of all accidents in the age group 0–19 and about 10% of all health care consumption. The accident rate decreased with age. The severity was about the same as in other accidents. 10% were hospitalized. When time of exposure had been taken into consideration there was no difference as to incidence between the accident rate at home as compared with the rate in nursing homes/day-care centres. When comparing with studies in the past there seems to be a lower rate of home accidents which can be explained by secular changes and local preventive measures.

Abstract:
Background: Home may beconsidered a place toescape the dangers of theoutside world. Children have the highest risk for home injury and accidents. Considering this view, this study was aimed to describe the pattern of home accidents among the under-five children in selected villagesin Kota Samarahandistrict andto determine their care-seeking behavior.Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in four villages in Kota Samarahan district. A total of 917 households were visited. Among them, 261 households were having under five children. Out of 261 households, 248 had completed the interview with the response rate of 95%. Data was collected from caregivers of under-five children by face to face interview by interviewer-administered questionnaire. Data entry and analysis was done by IBM SPSS version 22.0. A p-value less than 0.05 wasconsidered as statistically significant.Results: The prevalence of home accident was 68.1% in thelast six months. Two-fifths (40.3%) of the households had at least one incidence of home accidents. The most common home accidents were fall (56.9%) followed by cut/ wound (16.9%) and struck by an object (10.5%). Logistic regression analysis revealed that age, marital status and household income appeared to be important predictors of home accidents among under-five children (p<0.05). More than half of the respondents took home treatment for accidents such as fall, cut/ wound, struck by an object and insect bites. While all who suffered from severe home accidents such as poisoning, suffocation and vehicle accidents would visit the nearest healthcare facilities for treatment.Conclusion and Recommendation: A comprehensive and preventive program could be implemented involving the vulnerable segments of the population and emphasise on most common home accidents as in the study findings.Bangladesh J Medicine Jul 2017; 28(2) : 58-62

Abstract:
Abstract Injuries and deaths from home accidents are a major public health problem. This paper describes how data on housing characteristics were matched with dwelling-related mortality and injuries data. As no single database provided sufficient accurate data on housing and occupiers, this task involved identifying data-sets to create and validate a Housing and Population Database, which was matched with various data-sets on injuries and fatalities that are associated with the home. Taking account of both frequency of accidents and severity of outcomes, analyses of the matched data showed the true rank order of type of home accidents. Also investigated was whether one age group was more vulnerable to a particular type of accident and the relation between different types of accidents and the age and type of dwelling. A literature review was carried out to look at the relation between the design and condition of dwelling features and accidents and between human behavior and accidents. The results showed that little work has been done in most areas on the different degrees of the contribution made by human behavior and building conditions. Even though more focused research would be useful, preventative actions could reduce the scale oft he problem.

Abstract:
Abstract High age is a distinguished risk factor of falling, but there remains gaps in epidemiological data among very old people. Also, effects of exercise-oriented intervention implemented by geriatric teams is not known. The aims were to describe the incidence and risk factors of falls, the risk of fall-related injuries associated with physical activity, and to investigate the effect of pragmatic exercise intervention on fall risk among a home-dwelling population aged 85 years and older. The target population consisted of home-dwelling citizens of Oulu aged 85 years or more (N = 827). Altogether 555 people (mean age 88 SD ± 3), representing 67% of the population sample, were evaluated by interviews and clinical assessments. Falls and physical activity were monitored via telephone nine times during a 27-month follow-up constituting 1114 person years. Risk factors of falls were determined during an 11-month period before intervention, as were the effects of the intervention during a 16-month period thereafter. Negative binomial regression, pooled logistic regression and Cox regression analyses were used to analyze data. The incidence rates of falls, major soft tissue injuries and fractures were 1039 (95% CI 974–1093), 74 (58–92) and 89 (72–108), respectively. The probability of getting injured was higher in the morning and evening than in the daytime. The contribution of the ongoing activity and the type of falling to the risk of injury was less than that previously reported among younger home-dwellers. The risk factors of falls were a history of recurrent falling, trouble with vision when moving, use of an antipsychotic drug, and feelings of anxiety, nervousness or fear. Exercise other than walking was associated with a reduced risk of injury-causing falls. Pragmatic intervention wasn’t effective in preventing falls, but it was effective in preserving balance performance. Among those with better functional abilities, intervention was effective in reducing the risk of the first four falls. Adherence to recommended interventions was relatively low. In conclusion, the frequency of falls and fall-related fractures increases up to the highest ages. Anxiety-related disorders may be more important risk factors of falls than are drugs commonly used in treatment. Exercise related to everyday activities is safe among the most elderly. The effects of practical exercise intervention are promising, but attention needs to be paid to adherence to exercise in order to improve these effects.

Abstract:
Injuries continue to be a significant health problem in children. Injuries put more children in hospital than any other single cause. Injuries to children are due to falls, burns, poisoning, crushing, suffocation, traffic incidents and other causes both intentional and unintentional. Preschool children most commonly experience injuries in the home where they spend most of their time. The Western Cape Department of Health has decided to focus on the prevention of unintentional injuries to preschool children in and around the home. It is necessary to first determine the risk factors to these injuries before embarking on safety promotion and injury prevention programmes. To date there have been no studies documented in South Africa looking at the perceptions of the risk factors associated with household unintentional childhood injuries of first time mothers. This study therefore attempted to explore the perceptions of risk factors of first time mothers in Delft. Delft was chosen because it is a low-income area (which is recognised as being a risk factor to unintentional childhood injuries) and it is one of the pilot sites for the injury prevention programme of the Western Cape Department of Health.

Abstract:
In order to deal with the nuclear severe accidents, the severe accident management systems are popularly considered and developed at home and abroad recently. A severe accident management system usually includes these functional parts: accident monitor, accident diagnosis, accident simulation, accident prognosis and SAMG support. Here, the accident diagnosis part is mainly concerned, and three nuclear accident diagnosis methods are introduced here, including BP neural network method, SDG expert diagnosis technique and artificial diagnosis method, which are also applied to a severe accident management system developed by us. In this paper, firstly, the severe accident management system developed by us will be introduced briefly. Then, three accident diagnosis methods for nuclear power plant (NPP) are showed and described in detail. At last, two cases including LOCA and SGTR accidents are used for the verification of these accident diagnosis methods and some analyzing results and conclusions are given. The results show that the three diagnosis methods are very useful for the accident diagnosis of NPP, which can diagnose the accident type accurately and offer much information or support to the severe accident management system and operators. The paper offers some reference significance for the research of accident diagnosis methods and the development of severe accident management system.

Abstract:
Following head trauma caused by traffic accidents, many patients are unable to completely recover their social functions due to higher brain dysfunction although they are able to return home. To predict the onset and severity of post-traumatic higher brain dysfunction, the visualization of responsible injury is considered urgent. In this study, we focused on five patients with higher brain dysfunction following head trauma caused by traffic accidents to establish a method for quantitatively evaluating higher brain dysfunction. The injury conditions were reproduced on the basis of multibody dynamic and collision analyses using finite element (FE) modeling of the human head to determine mechanical responses inside the cranium of these patients. The strain on the frontal lobe generated by an injury condition was suggested to contribute to the onset of attention disturbance during the chronic phase of medical treatment. Reproduction analysis of the injury conditions using FE modeling of the head could predict the onset and severity of traumatic higher brain dysfunction.

Abstract:
Nuclear power plant is composed of many structures, systems and components. In the design and development of nuclear power plants, in order to improve their safety, more and more designers realized that the standards and methods of design, manufacture and supervision of nuclear facilities and equipment have changed a lot. In the new period, facing the deteriorating environment, green, safety and environmental protection are all the things we have to pursue in our real life. Therefore, it is urgent to develop clean and efficient nuclear power sources and focus on improving the safety, reliability and economy of nuclear power plants. For extreme accidents that are extremely unlikely, the equipment of nuclear power plant should be kept safe and worthy of further exploration under the design extension conditions. In order to ensure nuclear safety, according to the practical experience at home and abroad and the practice of new nuclear power plant, it is proposed to improve the safety classification theory and method of nuclear power plant equipment. At the same time, combined with the in service inspection, equipment identification, quality assurance requirements, maintainability and technical maturity of nuclear power plant equipment, we comprehensively and deeply study the safety classification of nuclear power plant equipment.

Abstract:
Engineering case studies of two product liability lawsuits involving accidents with machinery are presented. The studies focus on the design, manufacturing, and marketing of these products and related legal issues. In the first case study a person riding on the access/egress step of a construction machine was injured when the step failed. Although the step had been damaged prior to the accident, the plaintiff alleged that the step design was defective, and this issue was further confused because the manufacturer had changed the design before the accident. The warnings on the machine and in the manual were adequate, but the judge ruled that neither the injured party’s behavior nor the manufacturer’s warnings could be discussed before the jury. In the second case study, a person was scalded by hot water and steam when he disconnected the inlet hose to a large sprinkler of the type used on a sports field. The product had a foreseeable design defect which directly contributed to the accident. There were also marketing and warning issues because no comprehensive manual was provided which adequately covered the integration of the subassemblies used in the product.

A simplified analysis has shown that one of the most severe loading condition is given by the small break loss of coolant accidents (SBLOCA) due to the pressurized injection of cold water (9°C) into the cold leg and down comer of the RPV. Two main physical phenomena, considered important for the RPV cooling transient, were identified during numerical application obtained with EDF CFD tools. These phenomena are the fluid flow separation and the plume oscillations in the down comer. In order to consolidate these numerical results with the EDF home code, called Code_Saturne, an experimental study has been carried out with the new EDF R&D facility. This transparent experimental model is based on the representation at 1/2 scale of a cold leg and a third of down comer including a thermal shield. The experiments were realized by injecting of salt water flow (density effects) in the cold leg according to a similitude study based on Froude number conservation between experiments and reactor scenarios. Firstly, this paper presents the main qualitative experimental results, based essentially on visualizations of different injections of dyed salt water in the cold leg and in the down comer. The physical phenomena observed showed a qualitative good agreement between visualizations and numerical results. Secondly, this paper presents the first experimental results of the assessment of the fluid flow separation in the experimental model obtained with temperature probes inserted in the down comer. We showed, in the experiments analysis, the fluid flow separation and the jet oscillations were detected. The next step will consist to compare these quantitative experiments with numerical study which will be carry out with Code_Saturne.
