Due to the large volume and generally as a public building, the damage of large-span space structures under various non-conventional loads will cause greater economic losses, casualties, and social impacts, etc. Therefore, it is particularly important to evaluate the seismic performance of large-span space structures. This paper taked a multipurpose sports center as an example and considered its synergistic deformation based on the method of equivalent damping ratio. Furthermore, The ABAQUS software was used to analyze the time-history and energy response of the multipurpose sports center under the action of rare earthquakes, and proposed a quantitative damage index to assess the overall damage of the structure. Finally, the research results indicated that the maximum inter-story drift ratio of the multipurpose sports center under the action of rare earthquakes was less than its limit value. The frame beams presented different degrees of damage, but the key members were basically in an elastic state. The bearing capacity did not reach the limit value, which satisfied the intended seismic performance target. This study taked an actual case as an example and proposed a relevant damage evaluation system, which provided some reference for the analysis of the seismic performance of large-span space structures.

In this study, long-term global illuminance data for 19 selected cities are calculated from modeled solar radiation data, AEER's TMY2. Perez model in Daysim daylight simulation tool is used for the solar radiation to illuminance conversion. And then, daylight availability in an unit office space is evaluated for the 19 cities. For this evaluation, various daylight performance indices are reviewed since static daylight performance index such as daylight factor (DF) and annual average global illuminance value is not suitable for actual performance evaluation in terms of visual comfort and light energy saving of a space. This study evaluated daylighting performance of prototypical office space module by introducing DA (daylight autonomy) and UDI (Useful Daylight Illuminance) index for major cities of Korea. Result shows that there is upto 18% of illuminance level difference with annual average global illuminance data, but if we consider useful daylight in a space the illuminance level difference among the cities are only within 5%. This means that for sustainable building design especially in daylight design, amount of annual global illuminance is not important factor even in cloudy cities. Daylight design and daylight harvesting system would return similar energy saving impact regardless of building location.

We studied the precipitation of magnetospheric energetic electrons into the Earth's atmosphere during magnetic storm times using precipitating electron flux data from the MEPED on board the NOAA Polar Orbiting Environmental Satellites (POES) low.altitude satellite, NOAA-16. We identified a total of 84 storm events between 2001 and 2012 using SYM-H index. We have done a superposition of precipitating electron fluxes for each of three energy ranges (i.e., e1: > 30 keV, e2: > 100 keV, e3: > 300 keV) for the identified storm times. The results show that the fluxes start to increase before the main phase of storm for all energy ranges and reach a maximum level just before the time of SYM-H minimum value. The precipitation timescales are energy-dependent, being shorter for lower energy, ~4.67 hours for e1, ~7.93 hours for e2 and ~26.5 hours for e3. The precipitating fluxes decline during the recovery phase of the storms. We examined the L shell dependence of the precipitating electron flux during the main phase. We found that statistically the precipitation fluxes are dominantly seen at L of ~ 3-4 or higher. This L value roughly corresponds to the plasmapause location during the main phase. Thus the results imply that the electron precipitation mainly occurs outside of the plasmapause. In addition, we classified the storm events by their strength and examined the dependence of precipitation on storm intensity. We found that the electron precipitation occurs on a faster time scale and penetrate into inner L shell region for a stronger storm.

In this study, we established a framework for measuring the internationalization of innovation systems. Through this, we try to make a comparative analysis on the atomic energy and space sector in Korea. According to our analysis, the atomic energy sector has a higher level of internationalization in its innovation system with technological level than the space sector. This study indicates that the internationalization of innovation system is an important factor for catching up a leader. The framework, which was developed in this study, could be applied to many case studies on an international leadership of innovation system. In addition, it could provide some implications for technology management, especially in the sectors which fell into a strategic dilemma.

In this study, we analyzed space heating and domestic hot water(DHW) charges from 2017 to 2018 for 151,206 households in 202 apartment complexes built from 1997 to 2016, in order to evaluate the effectiveness of Korea's insulation standards reinforcement. The applied insulation standards were revised three times(in 1987, 2001 and 2010). We used the Anderson-Darling test to review the normality of the space heating and DHW charges. As a result, each p-value was greater than 0.05 and it followed the normal distribution. The annual average space heating charges per unit area of apartments with the 1987 insulation standards were 5,237￦/㎡a in 2017 and 5,328￦/㎡a in 2018. The heating charges with the 2001 standards were 4,827￦/㎡a in 2017 and 4,817￦/㎡a in 2018. Compared to previous standards(1987 standards), heating charges decreased by 7.8% and 9.6%. Also the heating charges with the 2010 standards were 3,683￦/㎡a in 2017 and 3,734￦/㎡a in 2018. Compared to previous standards(2001 standards), heating charges decreased by 24.3% and 21.5%. On the other hand, compared to each previous standards, DHW charges were decreased by 12.2%, 13.6% or increased by 4.6%, 6.9%, which means there's no correlation between insulation standards reinforcement and DHW charges.

This paper is to analyse a changing space of energy flows in Northeast Asia from geopolitical and geoeconomic perspectives that have been recently promoted for energy security of countries in this region. The research is based on an analytical framework in an integration of political ecology and political economy. Because of an ever-increasing input of energy resources for economic growth and of dramatically increasing price of crude oil and recent instability of oil market, South Korea, China and Japan have been deeply concerned with energy security and conducted very actively geopolitical strategies. And hence the space of energy flows in the region is now in a process of dynamic reconfiguration, in which the project for development of oil and natural gas fields in East Siberia and construction of pipelines to transport them can be seen as one of competitive issues among these countries. In spite of worrying about stagflation due to rapid increase of oil price, such geo-strategies for energy security and reconfiguration of space of energy flows seem to keep the accumulation of capital in this region continue with generation of huge privatized oil companies.

Global and local memory functions, defined by Quack and Troe, were calculated for the rotationally inelastic collision of O + SO(v, j)→ [O--S--O]→O + SO(v, j'). It is seen to decrease steadily as total energy increases. Distribution of scattering cross section over product rotational states also shows the decreasing memory of initial state as total energy is increased. These results are interpreted in terms of energy scrambling at high energy due to the availability of more phase space and also the influence of strong dynamical constraints.

Purpose: In this study, we evaluate the annual energy performance of the detached house which was designed with the aim of zero energy. Method: The experimental house which was constructed in Gonju Chungnam in 2013, is the single family detached house of light weight wood frame with $100m^2$ of heating area. Thermal transmittance of roof (by ISO 10211) and building external walls are designed as $0.10W/m^2K$ and $0.14W/m^2$ respectively and low-e coating vacuum window glazing with PVC frame was installed. Also grid connected PV system and natural-circulation solar water heater was applied and 6kWp capacity of photovoltaic module was installed in pitched roof and $5m^2$ of solar collector in vertical wall facing the south. We analyzed the 2014 annual data of the detached house in which residents were actually living, measured though web-based remote monitoring system. Result: First, as a result, total annual energy consumption and energy production (PV generation and solar hot water) are 7,919kWh and 7,689kWh respectively and the rate of energy independence is 97.1% which is almost close to the zero energy. Second, plug load and hot water of energy consumption by category showed the highest numbers each with 33% and 31%, with following space heating 24%, electric cooker 8%, lighting 3% in order. Hot water supply is relatively higher than space heating because high insulation makes it decreased.

The CNDO/2 and STO-3G calculations were performed on nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur compounds in order to examine the effect of interactions between two nonbonding (n) orbitals in the same molecule separated by N intervening $\sigma$ bonds based on the PMO approach. Calculated basis level energies, energy splittings, and interaction energy changes for both chain and cyclic model compounds were qualitatively compared with the corresponding predictions derived from perturbational formalism for n-n orbital interactions and successfully explained in terms of the derived energy expressions. In general, through-space interaction term could be neglected in the N and O systems. And the calculated results were explained simply by through-bond interaction term. As a result, through-bond interaction placed n- below n+ for odd systems and n+ below n- for even systems. Also energy splittings in odd systems were larger than those in even systems. However, in the cases of cis-ethylene diamine and o-phenylene diamine(conformer VI in Table 4), through-space interaction term was found to be substantial and the opposing effects of through-space and through-bonds interactions were observed. Finally it was found that the interactions between two n orbitals on S atoms always had some contribution of the destabilizing through-space interaction term. This result was consistent with the fact that the lone pair lobes of third elements were larger in size than those of the second period elements.
