  • Daylighting system is an alternative lighting system using daylight collecting device, light transformer and light diffuser. In this paper, we developed a daylighting system in which the collecting device composed by dual parabolic reflectors, the silica optical fiber adapted to the light transformer and light diffuser made of the polyglass square sheet. We have estimated the system efficiency and general color rendering index(Ra) of the developed system. The system efficiency measured to 23.8% and Ra was revealed as 95. Ra number of the developed system is bigger than the number(65) of the previous fresnel lens based sunlight collector.

  • The Green's equivalence relations have played a fundamental role in the development of semigroup theory. They are concerned with mutual divisibility of various kinds, and all of them reduce to the universal equivalence in a group. Boolean matrices have been successfully used in various areas, and many researches have been performed on them. Studying Green's relations on a monoid of boolean matrices will reveal important characteristics about boolean matrices, which may be useful in diverse applications. Although there are known algorithms that can compute Green relations, most of them are concerned with finding one equivalence class in a specific Green's relation and only a few algorithms have been appeared quite recently to deal with the problem of finding the whole D or J equivalence relations on the monoid of all $n{\times}n$ Boolean matrices. However, their results are far from satisfaction since their computational complexity is exponential-their computation requires multiplication of three Boolean matrices for each of all possible triples of $n{\times}n$ Boolean matrices and the size of the monoid of all $n{\times}n$ Boolean matrices grows exponentially as n increases. As an effort to reduce the execution time, this paper shows an isomorphism between the R relation and L relation on the monoid of all $n{\times}n$ Boolean matrices in terms of transposition. introduces theorems based on it discusses an improved algorithm for the J relation computation whose design reflects those theorems and gives its execution results.

  • This study aims to investigate factors influencing customer behavior towards nylon bags and single-use plastics. These factors are environmental protection awareness, health protection awareness, sense of responsibility, expectations, and green marketing. A quantitative method with the use of surveys is deployed to collect data of young people under 30, generating 1650 valid responses. The collected data is then analyzed with SPSS 22, using Cronbach's Alpha and Exploratory Factor Analysis to test the reliability of the model before validating the hypotheses by regression analysis. The study found that the majority of respondents are inclined to use plastic bags, despite their environmental awareness. The results also demonstrate that health consciousness, environmental concerns, self-driven responsibility for the sustainability of young people have a significant impact on their behaviors in using nylon bags and plastic products, whereas expectation and green marketing are confirmed not to be the factors. The study suggests that if green marketing is to gain higher influence, an increase in research and development to support other environmentally friendly packaging would be the right path. Finally, this research proposes some feasible recommendations for the government, which include imposing bolder and more targeted environmental policies on consumers and introducing educational campaigns to raise awareness about minimizing plastic consumption.

  • The purpose of this study is to review and evaluate the proper planning for 2030 Incheon Urban Parks & Green Space Master Plan. Some of the plans are aimed at multiple small districts within the city's old town, as local governments are planned to be sub-subsidized by Incheon Metropolitan City. However, these plans have become simple plans for each district and therefore find it difficult to collect from the perspective of the using system of the residents who are directly used. First, the construction of the urban park and green space network requires the construction of a service using system that can be felt by the users. Second, the basic idea of each district planned as the detailed strategy of the master plan should be planned through consultation with nearby the district. Third, specific targets and directions for the urban park and green space plan through the urban development project are needed.

  • To receive financial support for the Green Remodeling, applicants must submit an energy simulation report. However, many of the applicants are not green remodeling specialist and energy simulation services are too expensive for them. For this reason, this study was to develop an energy simulation program to enhance green remodeling for the non-specialist such as housewives. Firstly, to enhance understanding and accessibility improvement energy simulation, simulation process was designed four steps and reducing input data. Specifically, input data was reduced by categorizing the following for the area, plan type, hot water load, electricity load, statistical inference. And then, to accurately verify the calculation result, the heat and hot water demand were derived and compared with ECO2 and Energy # program. Lastly, the calculation shows that there is a difference of 4% for the heat load and 15% to 33% for the hot water load respectively.

  • Purpose - The current study aims to learn how fashion consumers now feel about environmental issues. The significance of "green fashion product creation" in resolving environmental issues is explored. It also examines how customers' environmental consciousness has evolved due to the introduction of green fashion products. Research design, data, and methodology - The study methods, procedures, and results of the 16 publications included in this literature review were critically examined. The data sources, analyses, and key findings presented in each publication were compared and contrasted. To better understand how to raise environmental consciousness among customers. Result - The investigation indicates a total of four results why eco-friendly product should be developed to attract potential green consumers. Four solutions are as follows; (1) Encourages Sustainable Consumption Behavior, (2) Increases Consumer Environmental Awareness, (3) Improves Corporate Social Responsibility, and (4) Enhances Competitive Advantage. Conclusion - Promoting sustainability in the fashion sector requires full visibility throughout the supply chain. Companies in the fashion industry would serve their customers better if they were more forthcoming about the resources, methods, and circumstances that went into making their wares. Consumers may accomplish this by including instructions on the packaging or posting them on the business's website.
