Since most Green House Gases (GHGs) and air pollutants are generated from the same sources, it will be cost-effective to develop a GHGs reduction plan in combination with simultaneous removal of air pollutants. However, effects on air pollutants reduction according to implementing any GHG abatement plans have been rarely studied. Reflecting simultaneous removal of air pollutants along with the GHGs emission reduction, this study investigated relative cost effectiveness among GHGs reduction action plans in Busan Metropolitan City. We employed the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), a methodology that evaluates relative efficiency of decision-making units (DMUs) producing multiple outputs with multiple inputs, for the investigation. Assigning each GHGs reduction action plan to a DMU, implementation cost of each GHGs reduction action plan to an input, and reduction potential of GHGs and air pollutants by each GHGs reduction action plan to an output, we calculated efficiency scores for each GHGs reduction action plan. When the simultaneous removal of air pollutants with the GHGs reduction were considered, green house supply-insulation improvement and intelligent transportation system (ITS) projects had high efficiency scores for cost-positive action plans. For cost-negative action plans, green start network formation and running, and daily car use control program had high efficiency scores. When only the GHGs reduction was considered, project priority orders based on efficiency scores were somewhat different from those when both the removal of air pollutants and GHGs reduction were considered at the same time. The expected action plan priority difference is attributed to great difference of air pollutants reduction potential according to types of energy sources to be reduced.

현재까지 국내 건설사들은 공법의 개선, 제안 등 다양한 방법을 통해 공사비 원가 절감을 도모하여 왔다. 그러나 그러한 노력들은 각 건설사별로 이루어져 왔으며 성과를 업계 차원에서 공유하는 것으로는 연결되지 못한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 최근 완공된 공동주택 1개동 및 지하주차장의 건설 공사비를 기준으로 민간부문에서 적용된 다양한 원가절감 사례들을 조합하여 적용할 경우 기대되는 공사비 원가 절감수준을 분석하였다. 분석결과에 의하면 아파트공사의 경우 기존 대비 3.77%의 공사비 절감을, 지하주차장공사의 경우 7.33%, 그리고 아파트 및 지하주차장을 합한 총 공사비 차원에서는 5.26%의 절감이 가능한 것으로 분석되었다.

건설사업의 목표는 해당 사업의 특성에 따라 우선순위의 차이는 있지만 기본적으로 원가절감, 공기단축, 품질확보로 압축될 수 있다. 그 중 원가절감은 발주자와 건설산업계 모두에게 중요한 목표이며 이를 달성하기 위한 전략과 방법은 중요한 관심사라 하겠다. 원가절감은 사업범위, 품질, 안전, 상호 비즈니스 관계, 고객만족 등 타 매니지먼트 요소의 희생을 수반함으로써 부정적인 이미지로 인식되어 왔다. 그러나 원가절감이란 용어는 부정적인 이미지를 극복하고 가치창조(value for money)를 달성시키는 긍정적인 방향으로 변화하여야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 영국 Constructing Excellence의 성공사례를 중심으로 원가절감의 성공사례 분석을 동하여 긍정적인 원가절감 전략의 특징을 도출하고자한다.

Cost-benefit analysis was investigated to propose the analysis method of the effect of investment and the optimum investment level of safety management cost for preventing gas accident in the B governor station. From five classifications of safety management costs consisting of cost items with similar characters and potential accident costs calculated by risk assessments(FMEA/HAZOP), we found that the order of the benefit(the reduction cost of the potential accident cost) was the instrument increase and repair cost > the safety checking and inspection cost > the labor and training cost > the safety equipment and corresponding cost > the research and development cost. As the benefit was increased with increasing the investment cost, the effect of investment was increased with decreasing the Investment cost. As a result, the optimum safety management cost was estimated and the investment level was analyzed by the model of optimum investment level.

This dissertation investigates the feasibility of accurately calculating the required rebar length using BIM-based shape codes and the potential benefits of such an approach in terms of cost reduction, waste reduction, and environmental improvement. The study aims to explore the possibility of automatically calculating slab rebar length before construction to reduce rebar cutting waste and cost. The results of this study will provide insights into the potential of using shape codes to reduce rebar cutting waste and cost in building frame construction.

There is a growing interest in hybrid electric vehicles due to environmental concerns. Recent efforts are directed toward developing an improved main component systems for the hybrid electric vehicle applications. Soon after the introduction of electric starter for internal combustion engine early this century, despite being energy efficient and nonpolluting, electric vehicle lost the battle completly to internal combustion engine due to its limited range and inferior performance. Hybrid Electric vehicles offer the most promising solutions to reduce the emission of vehicles. This paper describes a method for cost reduction estimation of parallel hybrid electric vehicle. We used a cost reduction structure that consisted of five major subsystems (three-type and two-type motor) for parallel hybrid electric vehicle. Especially, we estimated the potential for cost reductions in parallel hybrid electric vehicle as a function of time using the learning curve. Also, we estimated the potentials of cost by depreciation.

To mitigate the environmental impacts of the energy sector, the government of South Korea has made a continuous effort to facilitate the development and commercialization of renewable energy. As a result, the efficiency of renewable energy plants is not a consideration in the potential site selection process. To contribute to the overall sustainability of this increasingly important sector, this study utilizes the Black-Scholes model to evaluate the economic value of potential sites for off-site wind farms, while analyzing the environmental mitigation of these potential sites in terms of carbon emission reduction. In order to incorporate the importance of flexibility and uncertainty factors in the evaluation process, this study has developed a site evaluation model focused on system dynamics and real option approaches that compares the expected revenue and expected cost during the life cycle of off-site wind farm sites. Using sensitivity analysis, this study further investigates two uncertainty factors (namely, investment cost and wind energy production) on the economic value and carbon emission reduction of potential wind farm locations.

The artificial potential method uses a potential field to guide a robot from a start to a goal configuration respectively. The potential field consists of attractive potential used to pull a robot toward a goal and repulsive potential to keep it away from obstacles. However, there are two problems concerning local minimum and computational cost to be resolved in conventional artificial potential methods. This study proposes a method utilizing a spline surface that interpolates arbitrary boundaries and a domain reduction method that reduces the unnecessary area. The proposed spline surface interpolates arbitrary shaped boundaries and is used as an artificial potential to guide a robot for global motion planning of a mobile robot. A reduced domain process reduces the unnecessary domain. We apply a distance-weighted function as such a function, which blends distances from each boundary with a reduction in computational time compared with other analytical methods. As a result, this paper shows that an arbitrary boundary spline surface provides global planning and a domain reduction method reduces local minimum with quick operation.

본 연구는 건물부문 에너지기기(조명, 가전기기, 냉난방, 공조, 취사 등) 효율개선 정책방향과 탄소세정책을 시나리오로 구성하여 장기 에너지 계획 및 비용최적화 분석이 가능한 MESSAGE 모형을 통해 에너지 소비량과 온실가스 감축잠재량, 총 비용을 분석하였다. 효율개선 시나리오는 2010년부터 2030년까지 기준시나리오 대비 약 5,600천 TOE(전력 2,303 천TOE)의 에너지 저감 효과가 발생하였고, $104MtCO_2eq$의 온실가스를 감축하는 것으로 나타났다. 그에 따른 총 비용은 2,706,993백 만원으로 전망된다. 탄소세적용 시나리오는 $74MtCO_2eq$의 누적 온실가스 감축효과가 발생하였고, 총 비용은 2,776,473백 만원으로 전망된다. 시나리오별 톤당 온실가스 감축비용 범위는 -475~272원/$tCO_2eq$ 사이로 나타나고, 효율개선 축시나리오가 온실가스 감축정책방향으로 우선순위가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 향후 건물부문의 온실가스 감축정책은 에너지 효율개선 정책을 우선적으로 펼쳐야 할 것으로 판단된다.

SMART Frame is a composite precast concrete structure system to deliver the advantages of both steel frame and reinforced concrete. Many studies have established to date that SMART Frame is more advantageous than conventional frame-type structure in terms of structural stability, constructability, economic viability as well as reduction of construction schedule. However, such studies have focused primarily on wall-type or flat slab-type apartment housing structures, failing to include Rahmen structures in their scope. Accordingly, this study aims to analyze the benefits of potential application of SMART Frame to RC Rahmen structures. As the structural stability and constructability of SMART Frame is already proven, this study reviews its benefits from the perspective of cost reduction. Conclusion of this study will be used subsequently in predicting the benefits of SMART Frame when it is adapted to RC Rahmen structures.
