Seowon is an educational institution of Neo-Confucianism in the Joseon Dynasty and is distributed throughout the country. Such a Seowon has a certain form in the composition and arrangement of buildings. Korean Seowon were recognized as excellent for localization by transforming them according to the local environment. Therefore, it was registered as a World Heritage Site. Museongseowon is located in the village differently from the 8 registered Seowons. However, data and research on the location setting and architectural composition of MuseongSeowon are insignificant, so related research is needed. Therefore, in this study, the appearance of the period when MuseongSeowon was equipped with architectural formality was investigated. This study compared the appearance of MuseongSeowon in Chilkwong-do drawn in 1910 and the present appearance, focusing on the Ganghak area. As a result, the architectural composition of the Seowon was similar to the present appearance after the revision of the Gangdang area in Chilkwong-do. Therefore, the present architectural composition of the Seowon appears to be the same as before 1900. In addition, the location and appearance of Heunghakjae and Myeonamsa, which were currently lost in the Gangsujae area, were partially derived. It seems that seowon played a central role in the village even after 1910. Also, since it is located in the village, the building seems to have a flexible spatial composition.

Purpose: The regional trauma center should be a trauma treatment center equipped with facilities, equipment, and manpower capable of providing optimal treatment such as emergency surgery to a severely traumatized patient upon arrival at the hospital. In order to establish a medical system for effective severe diseases, it is necessary to prepare architectural planning guidelines for the regional trauma centers. Methods:: Analyze the spatial configuration, and the area composition of the regional trauma center, And to provide basic data for building a more efficient regional trauma center. The spatial composition analysis divides the space into initial care, resuscitation, patient area, nursing area, diagnostic test, staff training, staff support, public, and analyzes the area and interconnection of each space. Results: The area that must be included in the regional trauma center is the resuscitation area, the patient area, the diagnostic examination area, architectural planning should be designed to enhance the interconnection of the areas. IIn addition, a regional trauma center should be planned as a separate from the existing facility so that it can be installed and operated independently. Implications: A regional trauma center should be built as a stand alone operation and the space should be planned as a more efficient route.

Gas composition has a significant impact on the dispersion behavior and accumulation characteristics of blowout gas. However, few public studies has investigated the corresponding effect of gas composition. Therefore, this study firstly builds the FLACS-based numerical model about an offshore drilling platform. Then several scenarios by varying the composition of blowout gas are simulated while the scenario with the composition of "Deepwater Horizon" accident is regarded as the benchmark. Furthermore, the effects of the gas composition on the flammable cloud volume, the influenced area of flammable cloud, the influenced area of hydrogen sulfide and the critical time of the hydrogen sulfide spreading to the living area are analyzed. The results demonstrate that gas composition is a driving factor for dispersion characteristics of blowout gas. All the results can give support to reduce the risk of the similar accidents incurred by real blowouts.
