A concept of hierarchical modeling, the newest modeling technology. has been introduced early In 1990. This nu technology has a goat potential to advance the capabilities of current computational mechanics. A first step to Implement this concept is to construct hierarchical models, a family of mathematical models which are sequentially connected by a key parameter of the problem under consideration and have different levels in modeling accuracy, and to investigate characteristics In their numerical simulation aspects. Among representative model problems to explore this concept are elastic structures such as beam-, arch-. plate- and shell-like structures because the mechanical behavior through the thickness can be approximated with sequential accuracy by varying the order of thickness polynomials in the displacement or stress fields. But, in the numerical analysis of hierarchical models, two kinds of errors prevail: the modeling error and the numerical approximation errors. To ensure numerical simulation quality, an accurate estimation of these two errors Is definitely essential. Here, a local a posteriori error estimator for elastic structures with thin domain such as plate- and shell-like structures Is derived using element residuals and flux balancing technique. This method guarantees upper bounds for the global error, and also provides accurate local error Indicators for two types of errors, in the energy norm. Comparing to the classical error estimators using flux averaging technique, this shows considerably reliable and accurate effectivity indices. To illustrate the theoretical results and to verify the validity of the proposed error estimator, representative numerical examples are provided.

Purpose: Since most simulation programs take the interface that lists up all the input variables representing all the functionalities, users must know where design variables of an Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) are located and also know what values are appropriate. This is why practitioner designers feel frustrated when they attempt to use simulation. The final objective of this study is to provide a building energy modeling guideline for practitioners in various fields such as architectural design and MEP. Method: As the first step of the modeling guideline, this study provides the Level of Detail (LOD) for simulation modeling of primary ECMs considering the design information available in each design phase. It is prepared by literature review, simulation functionality investigation, and field experts' survey. Result: The proposed simulation LOD offers a milestone at each design phases concerning what design variable and attributes need to be developed with how much of details in order to meet the project goal. Also each design team can set up a simulation usecase considering organizational characteristics based on the proposed LOD.

Knowledge acquisition is the process that extracts the required knowledge from available sources, such as experts, textbooks and databases, for incorporation into a knowledge-based system. Knowledge acquisition is described as the first step in building expert systems and a major bottleneck in the efficient development and application of effective knowledge based expert systems. One cause of the problem is that the process of human reasoning we need to understand for knowledge-based system development is not available for direct observation. Moreover, the expertise of interest is typically not reportable due to the compilation of knowledge which results from extensive practice in a domain of problem solving activity. This is also a problem of modeling knowledge, which has been described as not a problem of accessing and translating what is known, but the familiar scientific and engineering problem of formalizing models for the first time. And this formalization process is especially difficult for knowledge engineers who are often faced with the difficult task of creating a knowledge model of a domain unfamiliar to them. In this paper, we propose an automated knowledge acquisition tool which is based on an implementation of the Inferential Modeling Technique. The Inferential Modeling Technique is derived from the Inferential Model which is a domain-independent categorization of knowledge types and inferences ［Chan 1992］. The model can serve as a template of the types of knowledge in a knowledge model of any domain.

The demand for coverall-type protective clothing are increasing in many industrial fields; however, it is impossible to evaluate the wearers' apparel fit because there is no commercialized pattern in the market. This study produces a manual for the process of acquiring patterns by separating PPE products into pieces to provide information on acquiring patterns. The analysis was on coverall-type non woven protective clothing in the domestic market, and 4 panels examined the validity, reliability, and efficiency of various possible methods on each step of process. Five steps were conducted to acquire patterns removing wrinkles, marking seams lines, separating seams, and pattern completing. The process of converting these into pattern files was designed through three procedures of digitizing, editing, and exporting and detailed stages. Fitting tests were undertaken, real patterns by actual modeling and pattern files by virtual modeling; all showed similar forms with outfits wearing ready-made protective coveralls. This study sought the most efficient and objective method of virtual modeling and proposed it as a manual. It is expected for the pattern reverse-designing manual through products analysis presented in this study that would be a helpful addition of information to the pattern tracing of pattern-less clothing products.

This paper presents the modeling of insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) in electromagnetic transients program (EMTP) simulation for the reliable calculation of switching and conduction losses. The conventional approach considering the physical property of switching devices requires many attribute parameters and large computation efforts. In contrast, the proposed method uses the curve fitting and interpolation techniques based on typical switching waveforms and a user-defined component with variable resistances to capture the dynamic characteristics of IGBTs. Therefore, the simulation time can be efficiently reduced without losing the accuracy while avoiding the extremely small time step, which is required in simulation by the conventional method. The EMTP based simulation includes turn-on and turn-off transients of IGBT, saturation state, forward voltage of free-wheeling diode, and reverse recovery characteristics, etc. The effectiveness of proposed modeling for the EMTP simulation is verified by the comparison with experimental results obtained from practical implementation in hardware.

Most grid-based distributed hydrologic models are complex in terms of data requirements, parameter estimation and computational demand. To address these issues, a simple grid-based hydrologic model is developed in a geographic information system (GIS) environment using storage-release concept. The model is named GIS Storage Release Model (GIS-StoRM). The storage-release concept uses the travel time within each cell to compute howmuch water is stored or released to the watershed outlet at each time step. The travel time within each cell is computed by combining the kinematic wave equation with Manning's equation. The input to GIS-StoRM includes geospatial datasets such as radar rainfall data (NEXRAD), land use and digital elevation model (DEM). The structural framework for GIS-StoRM is developed by exploiting geographic features in GIS as hydrologic modeling objects, which store and process geospatial and temporal information for hydrologic modeling. Hydrologic modeling objects developed in this study handle time series, raster and vector data within GIS to: (i) exchange input-output between modeling objects, (ii) extract parameters from GIS data; and (iii) simulate hydrologic processes. Conceptual and structural framework of GIS StoRM including its application to Pleasant Creek watershed in Indiana will be presented.

In this research, a new methodology to perform building energy analysis using Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) standard has been studied. With the help of Archicad 14 modeling software, a 3D test model is generated and then exported to IFCXML format. A ruby code program retrieves the building information from the resulting IFCXML file using Nokogiri library. An INP file is created and gets ready for next energy analysis step. DOE 2.2 program analyzes the INP file and gives a detailed report of the energy cost of the building. Case study shows when using the IFC standard method, the Interoperability of the energy analysis is greatly improved. The main stream 3D building modeling software supports IFC standard. DOE 2.2 is able to read the INP file generated by IFC file. This means almost any 3D model created by main stream modeling software can be analyze in terms of energy cost Thus, IFC based energy analysis method has a promising future. With the development and application of IFC standard, designers can do more complex and easy-to-run energy analysis in a more efficient way.

B2B 전자상거래와 같이 XML을 이용한 정보 교환이 확산되고 있으며 이에 따라 상호 교환되는 정보에 대하여 체계적이며 안정적인 저장관리가 요구되고 있다. 이를 위해 XML응용과 데이터베이스 연계를 위한 다양한 연구가 관계형 데이터베이스를 중심으로 수행되었다. 그러나 계층구조를 갖는 XML 데이터를 2차원 테이블의 집합인 관계형 정보로 표현하는 관계형 데이터베이스로의 저장에는 본질적인 한계가 있어, 각 구조화된 정보를 객체-관계형 데이터베이스로 저장하기 위한 모델링 방안이 요구된다. 양질의 어플리케이션 시스템을 구측하기 위해서는 우선적으로 모델링이 중요하다. 1997년에 OMG는 표준 모델링 언어로 UML를 채택하였고, 이에 따라UML은 보다 널리 사용될 것이다. 그러므로 효율적인 XML어플리케이션을 개발하는데 UML에 기반을 둔 설계 방법론이 필요하다고 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 UML을 이용하여 객체-관계형 데이터베이스기반의 XML 응용을 위한 설계 방법론을 제안한다. UML를 도출해 내기 위한 체계적인 3단계 방법론을 제안하고, 만들어진 UML을 이용하여 W3C XML Schema를 설계하기 위한 XML 모델링 방안을 제시한다. 아울러 교환되는 XML데이터를 효율적으로 저장하기 위하여 객체-관계형 데이터베이스 스키마 설계를 위한 데이터 모델링 방법을 제안한다.
