The lightshelf system reduces intense illumination levels of indoor from direct sun light and reflect to lead diffused light into indoor deeply. This study aims to design acurved-lightshelf by a ray tracing method and evaluate the daylighting performance of window integrated with the curved-lightshelf by computer simulations. For this purpose, evaluation test model was designed for the experiments to validate the simulation model, and the curved-lightshelf was designed by the ray tracing method using Ecotect. After the office model was designed using 3D simulation, the average indoor illuminance, luminance and distribution of illuminance were evaluated by simulation which has a algorithm of Radiosity and Ray-Tracing method under four different cases(case1;no lightshelf, case2; Flat board, case3; tilted at $30^{\circ}$ angle, case4; the curved-lightshelf). As results, it turns out that case1 showed higher average illuminance and case4 was more uniformly distributed than case2 and case3, In addition average luminance of case1 was also lower. indicating that the curved-lightshelf would reduce the possibility of the glare, while maintaining the sufficient daylight level.

The study was intended to suggest the design alternatives of rural village community center based on the design directions which were derived from the previous research, and to evaluate the alternatives by rural residents. The previous research was carried out to grasp the conditions and user's needs of rural village community center. The subjects were 100 residents who lived in rural area in Chonlabukdo. The interview was carried out using a questionnaire with model and isometrics of two alternatives, which showed floor plan and building shape. The subjects evaluated positively both of two alternatives, but slightly more preferred alternative | because of a spacious diningroom and an indoor toilet. The size of a livingroom and entrance, indoor toilet space/location, storage space and deck were significant elements in two alternatives according to t-test. They responded that both of indoor and outdoor toilet should be planned in rural village center. Also, each toilet and room for man and woman should be separated. Entrance space should be enough to take on/off their shoes in a sitting position and deck space was planned to intermediate between indoor and outdoor space.

In this study, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from printing industries were analyzed, and an inorganic adsorbent, ${\gamma}-alumina$, was selected for the effective control of the VOC emissions. Printing processes commonly require inks, thinners, and cleaners, and they were mixed organic solvents containing aromatic compounds, ketones, and alcohols. Therefore, toluene, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), and isopropyl alcohol (IPA) were selected as model compounds for this study. The adsorptive properties using ${\gamma}-alumina$ were determined for the model compounds. Both batch isotherm and continuous flow column tests demonstrated that the adsorption capacity of MEK and IPA was 3~4 times higher than that of toluene. The column test performed at an inlet toluene concentration of 100 ppm showed that an 80% breakthrough for toluene was observed after 3 hours, but both MEK and IPA were continuously adsorbed during the same time period. A numerical model simulated that the ${\gamma}-alumina$ could remove toluene at a loading rate of 0.4 mg/min only for a 4-hour period, which might be too short of a duration for real applications. Consequently, lifetime enhancement for ${\gamma}-alumina$ must be implemented, and ozone oxidation and regeneration would be feasible options.

Many applications in the area of location-based services and personal navigation require nowadays the location determination of a user not only in outdoor environment but also indoor. To locate a person or object in a building, systems that use either infrared, ultrasonic or radio signals, and visible light for optical tracking have been developed. The use of WiFi for location determination has the advantage that no transmitters or receivers have to be installed in the building like in the case of infrared and ultrasonic based location systems. WiFi positioning technology adopts IEEE802.11x standard, by observing the radio signals from access points installed inside a building. These access points can be found nowadays in our daily environment, e.g. in many office buildings, public spaces and in urban areas. The principle of operation of location determination using WiFi signals is based on the measurement of the signal strengths to the surrounding available access points at a mobile terminal (e.g. PDA, notebook PC). An estimate of the location of the terminal is then obtained on the basis of these measurements and a signal propagation model inside the building. The signal propagation model can be obtained using simulations or with prior calibration measurements at known locations in an offline phase. The most common location determination approach is based on signal propagation patterns, namely WiFi fingerprinting. In this paper the underlying technology is briefly reviewed followed by an investigation of two WiFi positioning systems. Testing of the system is performed in two localization test beds, one at the Vienna University of Technology and the second at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. First test showed that the trajectory of a moving user could be obtained with a standard deviation of about ${\pm}$ 3 m.

It is known that chloride ion in concrete destroys the passive film of reinforcement inside concrete and accelerates corrosion which is the most influencing factor to durability of concrete structures. In this thesis, a chloride ion diffusion model for blast furnace slag(BFS) concrete, which has better resistance to both damage due to salt and chloride ion penetration than ordinary portland cement concrete, is proposed by modifying existing model of normal concrete. Proposed model is verified by comparing diffusion analysis results with both results by indoor chloride penetration test for specimens and field test results for actual RC bridge pier. Also, the optimum resistance condition to chloride penetration is obtained according to degrees of fineness and replacement ratios of BFS concrete. As a result, resistance to chloride ion penetration for BFS concrete is more affected by replacement ratio than degree of fineness.

A stereo vision system was developed for robot milking system (RMS) using two monochromatic cameras. An algorithm for inverse perspective transformation was developed for the 3-D information acquisition of all teats. To verify performance of the algorithm in the stereo vision system, indoor tests were carried out using a test-board and model teats. A real cow and a model cow were used to measure distance errors. The maximum distance errors of test-board, model teats and real teats were 0.5 mm, 4.9 mm and 6 mm, respectively. The average distance errors of model teats and real teats were 2.9 mm and 4.43 mm, respectively. Therefore, it was concluded that this algorithm was sufficient for the RMS to be applied.

The purpose of this study was to determine nitrogen dioxide(NO$_2$) decay rate by reaction between NO$_2$ and interior materials in Korean residence. The results of this research could be helpful to choose the interior construction materials and to study on reduction of indoor air pollutants. The results of this research are as follows; For 30 residences in Seoul and Incheon from October 2000 to march 2001, the mean of infiltration rate was 0.70$\pm$0.44 ACH, and single-detached houses (7 houses) and apartments (19 houses) were 0.97$\pm$0.55 ACH and 0.61$\pm$0.34 ACH, respectively. The $CO_2$ decay followed approximately first-order process ($R^2$=0.97$\pm$0.02). There existed a statistic significance in filtration rate between houses built in 1980’s and built in 1990’s by t-test (p<0.02). Mean of NO$_2$ decay rates in 26 residence3s except 4 residences was 0.94$\pm$0.49hr$^{-1}$ , and also 0.86$\pm$0.49hr$^{-1}$ , 0.97$\pm$0.50hr$^{-1}$ in single-detached houses and apartments, respectively. Mean NO$_2$ decay rates in houses built in 1980’s were 0.78$\pm$0.37hr$^{-1}$ , 1.33$\pm$1.03hr$^{-1}$ , respectively. Nothing were showed statistical significance among indoor temperature, indoor humidity, and NO$_2$ decay rate. However, NO$_2$ decay rates had a tendency to increase by increase of temperature and humidity. Average volume/surface of participated houses was 0.55$\pm$0.07m and mean NO$_2$ deposition velocity was calculated as 1.46$\pm$0.59msec$^{-1}$ .

최근 서비스 로봇에 대한 연구가 여러분야에서 활발해지며, 노인 보조와 같은 실내 서비스를 위한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 이 때 로봇이 효과적이고 정확한 서비스를 하기 위해서 물체와 상황을 적절하게 인식하는 것은 중요하다. 전통적인 물체 인식 방법은 미리 정의된 기하학적 모델에 기반하였으나 이런 접근 방법은 대상 물체가 다른 물체에 가려져 보이지 않는 상황 둥 불확실성을 포함하는 실내환경에서는 한계가 있다 본 논문에서는 로봇의 효과적인 물체 탐색을 위해 대상이 되는 물체의 존재 가능성을 추론하기 위한 베이지안 네트워크 모델을 제안한다. 이를 위해 활동별로 물체간의 관계를 모델링하여 고정되어 있지 않은 환경에 보다 유연하게 적용될 수 있게 하였다. 전체적인 구조는 공통-원인 구조를 물체간의 관계를 나타내는 단위로 사용하여 이를 결합해가며 구성되는데 이러한 방법은 베이지안 네트워크 설계를 효과적이게 한다. 제안하는 베이지안 네트워크 모델을 검증하기 위해 두 개의 베이지안 네트워크의 성능을 실험을 통해 검사하였는데 각각 $86.5\%$와 $89.6\%$의 정확도를 보였다.
