Recently, electric vehicles are gaining popularity among many domestic and foreign users due to their eco-friendly advantages of reducing fine dust and environmental greenhouse gases. As the demand and supply of electric vehicles increase, the demand for electric vehicle charging infrastructure is also growing together. Many users are experiencing inconvenience due to poor charging infrastructure, which makes them hesitant to buy electric vehicles. Research on the user experience of chargers in apartment complexes, a common residential type in Korea, is being conducted somewhat, but research on the design of electric vehicle charging devices in public places is insufficient. The purpose of this research is to identify user requirements and complaints based on the product design of the electric vehicle charger in public places and propose a new electric vehicle product design concept that meets the requirements. The research method understood the charging base and status of electric vehicles in public places through literature research and examined and analyzed the characteristics and problems of product design cases that improved the charging problem of electric vehicles recently released in the market. It is intended to identify and analyze the problems of the charging device product design through user interviews, a qualitative research method, and based on this, it is intended to propose a user-centered product design concept that improves major complaints.

Many manufacturers define the system of a new product flexibility, and take advantage of previous-product information using the product configuration concept. Product configuration is an approach that defines the system of a new product centered on the product structure by referring to the previous-product information. In this paper, it is established how to apply the concept of a product configuration utilizing previous-ships information in construction cost estimation process systematically and effectively. For this, we define the advanced-construction cost estimation process based on a naval ship product model, and design construction cost estimating model. It is validated that this process and model have the applicability through the case study of the construction cost estimating of the mine-warfare ship.

In product manufacturing industries, a recent issue is the green concept. The green concept is a complicated area. If the green concept is for products, its serious issues have to be criticized. Although the importance of the green concept has overflowed, its influences have not been disputed vigorously. So this study is to critic the serious issues of the green concept in aesthetics in product design, manufacturing, and products' prices. The green environment has four representative elements: systems, policies, minds, and technologies, but they are not in the field of design. An element of the green concept, green design is also a sub concept for design, so it should be based on aesthetics. It is green aesthetics. But since green design first appeared, it has never approached by aesthetics because it has mostly had social meanings and expectations. So for green aesthetics, to think about what makes a product, and what can be aesthetic issues among them are important. Products consist of form, structure, material, and technology. Form means different shapes in a structure, but there cannot be any specific directions for a green concept. Structure has two kinds: interior and exterior structure. While interior structure has a technological character, exterior structure is deeply related with aesthetics, but it has also no chance for green concept. Material can be divided as two also: aesthetic and technological. Aesthetics materials mean the colors, opacity, and tactile sense of materials, but they are not aesthetic issues. Technological materials are recycled materials or non-recycled materials. Even if recycled materials are used today, they are close to systems or policies rather than aesthetics. With this result, green aesthetics is a very difficult concept. Second, green products are usually 30% more expensive than general products. But every consumer has his or her own economical conditions, and nobody can coerce consumers into buying expensive green products for green environments. And green products without good quality cannot satisfy consumers. This means that green concept is not accomplished by just manufacturing green products. Third, although a lot of proposals have appeared as green design in exhibitions, most of them are close to craft because they are so hard to be manufactured. Manufacturing is the first consideration for products. These three issues are enough to explain why green concept is complicated in manufacturing products. If they are not solved, the green concept is just a fiction. So if this study proposes a turning point against blind green-oriented atmosphere, it will be meaningful enough.

Structure of product, which is not considered by easy of assembly, has many hidden costs. For reduction of hidden costs, concepts of line balancing and assembly-oriented design are used. We find that part of structure can be improved by concept of line balancing. To reduce assembly time and enhance easy of assembly, design principles are developed by concept of assembly-oriented design. And design principles for improvement are applied according to condition of the grasped parts of product structure. Thersfore, we could design assembly-oriented design for better structure and low cost.

In automotive industries, reusability of product information is increasing through database construction of previous product data. The product data is stored by data quality management in product information systems. For naval ships, have the functional similarity by the ships of the same classification and class, that are built by series. Information of hull structures as well as embarked equipments are similar. So it would be effective to use database systems that are considered product information quality of previous ships in design and production processes. In this paper we discuss product information quality in database construction of naval ship product models. For this, we propose a basic concept and reference model for data quality verification. Based on this concept, A verification guideline is defined and it is applied for the case study of the digital naval ship which was built to the naval ship product model.

The paper introduces the concept of direct product and discusses some basic facts about distant ideals. We also introduce the definition of directly indecomposable in an autometrized algebra. Furthermore, we present the concept of a subdirect product and simple autometrized algebra and its behavior. We also introduce the definition of subdirectly irreducible in an autometrized algebras. In particular, we prove that every subdirectly irreducible monoid autometrized algebra is directly indecomposable. Finally, we discuss different properties of chain autometrized algebras and introduce the representability in the autometrized algebra. We also prove that if a weak chain monoid normal autometrized l-algebra is nilradical, then it is representable.

오늘날 소비자들은 생활수준의 향상과 더불어 제품 구매시, 그 제품이 가지는 가치 중에서 제품이 '사용자의 이미지를 얼마나 잘 대변해 주고 있는지' 하는 상징적인 이미지가 중요한 구매결정 요소가 되고 있다. 이러한 맥락에서 제품 디자인 개발에 있어서 사용자의 상징적 이미지에 관한 정보가 절대적으로 중요하나, 그 구체적인 사용자의 정성적(Qualitative) 정보를 조사하고 분석하는 방법의 개발은 무척 미약한 편이다. 이러한 점에서 사용자의 자아개념 추출 틀(framework)의 개발을 통한 사용자 이미지 정보의 제공은 디자이너에게 유용한 사용자를 이해 할 수 있는 가이드라인(Guideline)정보로써의 궁극적으로 디자인 방향설정에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 목적을 위하여 본 연구에서는 사용자군의 자아개념 추출을 위한 21개 언어적 항목을 개발하여 제시했으며, 본 연구에서 사례조사를 통해 개발된 21개 언어적 사용자 자아개념 이미지 평가척도와 사회과학분석 툴(인구통계학적 data분석과 인자분석, 군집분석)의 보완적 활용방안을 모색해 보았다.
