The fact that office environment is a principal factor affecting work efficiency is widely accepted. Under such a circumstance, developing relocatable office wall systems is highly required. Psychological, physiological, and economical factors, along with physical factors, should be considered to develope a office wall system. More specifically, competitive price, relocatable efficiency, structural stability, fast installation, health and safety, and aesthetic satisfaction are typical determinants. The evaluation results of newly developed wall system are as below: 1) Panel structural system added with the merits of frame structural system can be studied to accomplish minimal disruption to workplace and better finish details. 2) To cover up the existing interior defects such as uneven floor and ceiling, flexible solutions must be studied especially when panel structural system is accepted. 3) More consideration must be given to finish materials, section details, sound blocking and absorbtion to enhance the satisfaction level.

In order to reduce the cost and weight of the soft-foamed instrument-panel (IP), it was developed the new IP which is made by the two kinds of injection methods. One is the compression-injection with back-foamed foil inserted, and the other is two-shot injection with the passenger airbag door. We named it 'IMX-IP' which means that all components ('X') of the IP with different resins are made in a mold. The development procedure of this technology was introduced (1) Design of the new injection mold through TRIZ method, (2) Optimization of the injection conditions and back foamed-foil for minimizing the foam loss and thickness deviation, (3) Development of CAE for two-shot injection compression, (4) Reliability performance test and application to the mass production. The reduction of the processes through the two-shot injection with back foamed-foil inserted made it possible to enhance soft feeling on IP and reduce the cost and weight simultaneously.

This study aimed to develop experiment-based limiting heights for interior, nonload-bearing, cold-formed steelwall panels sheathed with gypsum board and subjected to uniformly distributed lateral loadings. Th e limiting heightswere evaluated by their strength (for flexure, shear, and web crippling) and deflection. Limiting heights for deflectionlimits of L/360, L/240, and L/120 (where L is the height of the wall) were developed over the range of typical designpressures.

자동차 man-machine system의 interface를 이루는 Display panel, Center fascia, Steering wheel, Rear view, Gear, Power window switch, Seat 등과 이들의 Layout은 운전자의 안전뿐만 아니라, 안락감과 밀접한 부분으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 이러한 설계요소들의 Man-machine interface의 최적화를 위한 인간공학적 접근이 필요하다. 운전자의 안락감은 Seat, Pedal, Steering wheel 등 뿐만 아니라 각종 조작장치(Audio, Switch, Gear,…)도 함께 연구되어야 하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 실험용 Seating buck을 제작하여 실내 조작장치 중 오디오를 대상으로 터치스크린과 Rapid Prototype을 이용해 사용성 평가에 대한 적합성을 검증하고자 하였다. Rapid Prototyping 기법은 디자인단계에서 제품 사용상의 문제점을 발견 개선할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 그러나, 본 연구 결과에서 3가지 항목 중 1가지만이 실제 Audio와 Prototype에서 차이가 없었다. 따라서, Prototype의 접촉감과 입체감의 개선, 실사용과 동일한 환경의 제시, 소리와 같은 정확한 반응의 제시, Glare의 제거, 사용자 분석에 따른 실험 데이터의 축적 등을 고려하여 Rapid Prototyping을 구현하여야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of the thermal environment created by the cooling system at the apartment that combines the forced convection cooling(the system reducing humidity from room) with the floor cooling radiation which uses the floor panel from floor heating system, a general residential heating system in Korea. In this study, the combined cooling system in which air supply, spurt temperature difference and interior draft are reduced, is compared with the existing forced convection cooling system. To identify the effect of the comparison concretely, a comparative experiment is carried out on tour conditions, ie, convection cooling, floor radiation convection cooling and floor radiation cooling. Through it the characteristical thermal environment formed within the model room is analyzed, and the conveying system of compressed floor chill and condensation problem are reviewed.

In recent, a great number of electric motor units (EMUs) have been disused in Korea according as its legal duration is 25 years. Generally, the disused EMUs are disposed by selling original form or scrapping for junk. Until now, any efficient disposal system for disused EMUs has not existed. The purpose of this study was to develop the recycling process for the FRP used as an interior panel of EMU. This process was to manufacture a product mixing binders, fillers and the powdered FRP. The characteristics of a product were changed with the mixing ratio of the powdered FRP. The optimal ratio of the powdered FRP was from 10 % to 15 % (w/w). In the future, the application of this process can enhance the efficiency of resource recycling and decrease the cost of waste treatment in the EMU industry.

In an express tilting train, side wall insulating the noise from the exterior sound source consists of two parts. One is the layered composite panel including aluminum honeycomb, glass wool and nomex honeycomb. The other is the double glazed window. In this study, sound insulation performance of the two parts is investigated by mass law and experiment. Based on ASTM E2249-02, the intensity sound transmission loss (TL) is measured on the specimens of the two parts. Mass law deviation (MLD) is considered in order to compare the sound insulation performance in respect of weight. Contribution of each part to the sound insulation is analyzed and the sound insulation strategy for the interior noise reduction is investigated.

This paper provides an insight into the response of non-seismic reinforced concrete (RC) building frames to excitations of different frequencies through experimental investigation. The results of cyclic loading tests of six full-scale RC beam-column sub-assemblies are presented. The tested specimens did not have any transverse reinforcement inside the joint core, and they were subjected to quasi-static and dynamic loading with frequencies as high as 20 Hz. Some important differences between the cyclic responses of non-seismic and ductile RC frames are highlighted. The effect of excitation frequency on the behavior of non-seismic joints is also discussed. In the quasi-static tests, shear deformation of the joint panel accounted for more than 50% of the applied story drift. The test results also showed that higher-frequency excitations are less detrimental than quasi-static cyclic loads, and non-seismic frames can withstand a higher load and a larger deformation when they are applied faster.

The aim of this paper is to show how LCA(Life Cycle Assessment) is used as a tool to evaluate the environmental burdens associated with EMU(Electronic Motor Unit), especially one of main components, an interior panel. Thus, the LCA results are polished into the general environmental product declaration format to communicate with the industrial and institutional customers. The format includes the product information and environmental information. In the list of environmental information, profile is consisted of two major results from the LCA study. One is the inventory analysis and the other is the characterized impact results. The format shown in this paper can be the one of option to choose environmentally preferable product and suggestion aimed at the institutional consumer such as government procurement office and corporation's purchasing department.

Various types of panels can be designed using acrylic rods, which are materials that allow light to pass through existing concrete. After designing using people, animals and objects, a prototype was produced by mixing ultra-high-strength concrete, and taking care not to damage the fixed acrylic rod during pouring and demolding. Yun Dong-ju's free design of a figure and a researcher were inserted into the wall inside the interior space, and then the installation was completed on-site. For installation, a metal frame was installed on the temporary wall, which is a non-structural wall, and then a relatively heavy concrete panel was fixed using a structural sealant and then applied to the field.
