  • Due to the increase of carbon dioxide and building regulations, BIM is considered a way of low-carbon and eco-friendly building development for its many advantages. The advantages can be maximized with Open BIM since it can produce optimal results for various purposes of energy performance assessment. However there are some problems in data interoperability in the process of Open-BIM based energy performance assessment. To solve such problems, this study focuses on space boundary information interoperability between IFC of Open BIM and IDF format of Energy Plus known as the most accurate and diverse energy performance assessment. The study analyzes the analogous study then figures out the problems of IFC based energy performance analysis, and suggests the way of interoperability. Finally, the development of automation program makes this way much more effective. The study of IFC data interoperability is useful for improving the reliability of Open-BIM based energy assessment.

  • This paper addressed various issues related to the objectivity of student assessment in medical education. The objectivity of assessment was related to all the steps of test development, administration, and results reporting in terms of reliability and validity. Specifically, the objectivity of item formats, representativeness of test content, standardization of test administration, consistency of scoring procedures, and appropriateness of reporting test results were discussed by comparing performance assessment with traditional paper-and-pencil tests. The conclusions were derived from current measurement theories such as standards-based assessment, evidencebased design, and outcome-based assessment. Further, based on Shepard's propositions (2006), the objectivity of student assessment could be achieved by improving the concordance between educational objectives and assessment components such as item types, test contents, and test administration, scoring, and reporting.

  • Engineering is a value-adding process applying knowledge and skills in the construction industry that includes the planning, feasibility study, project management (PM), front end engineering and design (FEED), detail design, procurement, construction, supervision, and operation. Among these engineering activities, FEED is defined as a comprehensive design practice in the early design phase focused on conceptual design and basic design. It is a particularly influencing area that determines the competitiveness of procurement and construction capability of construction firms (KNIN 2013). Nevertheless, previous studies in FEED have been limited to the design process, deliverable, or particular management technique (e.g. system engineering, collaboration, information etc.). In this context, the purpose of this study is to propose a comprehensive FEED business process structure for project management of thermal power plant construction projects encompassing the entire project life cycle. And an assessment methodology for FEED functions was developed. It is expected that the proposed structure of FEED functions and FEED evaluation methodology will contribute to improvement of competitive capability of engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) companies.

  • The purpose of this study was to develop a caregiver's uniform that is appropriate for nursing and to improve movement adaptability as well as having a pleasing appearance. Based on the results of preliminary study, I investigated the inconvenience and problems with the existing uniforms and made a sample uniform taking into consideration the design, the material, and the pattern. We carried out a sensory assessment and quantitative assessment in order to compare the sample uniform with existing uniforms. Following are the results of this research. The top is a short-sleeved blouse with a round neckline having no collar and with armpit gussets. The armpit gussets are semicircles and the inverted pleats in the back are an improvement designed for activity. The pants are long reaching to the ankles with elastic in the waist so that the waist measurement may be adjusted. The length of the pants can be adjusted with strings and the pants have a funnel-shaped pocket for adjustment of length. We used a mix of polyurethane and polyester for the outer cloth of the uniform in order to improve activity function and used $Coolever^{TM}$, the sanitary textile that absorbs moisture well and dries in a short time, for gussets in the armpits, which is the heavy sweat area. The appearance assessment and movement adaptability assessment were performed with 5 subjects and 9 experts. For the results of the assessment, the sample uniform was appraised to be better than the existing uniforms in every item of an appearance comparison assessment except for the neckline assessment by the experts. As for the assessment of movement appropriateness and wearing assessment, the same subjects were used for analysis. As the results of the assessment, the sample uniform was rated higher than the existing uniforms in movement adaptability and pleasing appearance.

  • This research presents a performance assessment system of which the purpose is to increase the effectiveness of the instruction and learning through the on-the-job superintendent of the instructor, the self-directed learning of the learner, and the interaction between instructors and students. The presented performance assessment system applies the problem-based situated learning of the web-based performance assessment to the production, the execution, the assessment, and the transmission of the test. For the effective administration and learning in the school, we applies the Problem-Based Learning of constructivism and the web-based situated learning of the learning community to the system design. The production of the web-based performance assessment shows that the problem-based and self-directed learning of the assessment are achieved through the web-based automatic production of the performance assessment, and the contextual learning by case-based learning is performed by the production of the template of the performance assessment.

  • In order to compare subjective and objective assessments, a passenger car was driven at several speeds over several road profiles. To measure the acceleration signals experienced by the seated subject who provided an subjective assessment, four triaxial translational accelerometers and one triaxial gyro sensor were mounted on the steering wheel and on the passenger seat and floor, respectively. Correlations were determined between the measured accelerations and the subjective assessments of 3 expert subjects and 9 general subjects using psychophysical power law.

  • This paper is the environmental impact assessment of at road design in the light of the sense for the real from the virtual reality. For in this papers, This study developed 3D-model and virtual reality contents by suggesting the environmental impact assessment based on GIS in the road design. And, through this process, it's possible to visualize the environmental impact assessment by constructing the 3D-model and simulation. The 3D-model can be a method to show the road effectively by maximizing the road's shape visually after the construction. The main construction which composes polyhedron model that is generated from digital map and aerial photo is built by mapping the real texture, so the Sense for the Real was more heightened. Through this study, it must be made to shorten a long time exhausting period of conference and construct more real road after due scene consideration by specific and various low-cost strategy in the environmental impact assessment afterwards.

  • The assessment of fatigue property is one of the most indispensable factors to design mechanical structures or parts. For accurately assessing fatigue property, it is necessary to precisely identify the loading condition and material property of the objective structure. However, there are many kind of problems in conducting predictive activity for a design concerned with variable factor such as fatigue phenomenons and environments. Therefore, most of the fatigue problems have been assessed from exiting experiment data and prediction method. In this study, expert system is developed for simply conducting performance assessment of weldments based on Finite element Analysis carrying out performance improvement and safety assessment of welded structures.
