A building's eco-friendliness is directly related to various values including the life cycle cost of a building. However, the conventional architectural design method has a limitation in that it cannot create an optimized case according to the surrounding environmental conditions. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to present a design assistance tool that can review planning cases optimized for the environmental conditions of the building site in the planning stage of architectural production. To achieve the purpose of the study, an algorithm for realizing 3D modeling of the region and analysis of the solar environment was produced based on the site contours, building, and road information from the digital topographic map provided by the National Geographic Information Institute. To examine the validity of the developed algorithm, a comparative experiment was conducted targeting the elevation direction of the existing building. As a result, it was found that the optimal elevation direction selected by the algorithm can receive higher insolation compared to the front facade of the main building.

대도시 상류부에 위치한 댐의 과도한 방류 또는 급작스러운 붕괴는 대규모의 인명 또는 재산피해를 야기할 수 있으며, 다양한 댐 유입량 조건에 따른 침수양상을 파악하는 것은 수재해 대응능력 향상에 필수적이다. 그러나 다양한 과다한 댐 방류 또는 붕괴유량에 따른 침수 범위는 도시의 내수침수와 달리 매우 넓은 지형조건을 고려하며 침수 범위가 광범위하게 나타날 수 있다. 이는 다양한 댐 유입량 조건에 따른 침수 지도를 생성 및 파악하는데 어려움을 가중시키며, 특히 댐 운영에 따른 침수양상을 실시간으로 파악하는데 어려움을 가중시킨다. 본 연구에서는 저빈도부터 PMF(Probable Maximum Flood) 조건까지의 다양한 댐 유입량자료를 바탕으로, 1차원 하천홍수해석을 실시하였다. 연구 대상으로 팔당댐에 대한 댐 해석을 실시하였으며, 팔당댐 하류에 위치한 서울시에 대한 영향을 분석하였다. 1차원 해석 결과로 산정되는 각하도 단면 별 홍수위자료와 GIS을 연계하여 다양한 발생빈도를 나타내는 유입량에 대한 침수지도를 생성하였으며, 기존에 제시된 발생빈도에 따른 침수지도 외에 임의 빈도의 침수지도를 실시간으로 생성할 수 있는 랜덤포레스트 회귀 모형을 구축하였다. 위의 과정들을 통해 다양한 유입량 조건에 따른 연구대상 지역에서의 침수예상도를 분석할 수 있었으며, 서울시 전반적으로 나타날 수 있는 침수심의 공간적 분포를 파악할 수 있었다. 주어진 침수 지도를 이용하여 서울시에 대한 인구 및 건축물의 경제적 가치 자료를 이용하여 추가적인 홍수 위험도 분석이 가능할 것으로 보이며, 임의 빈도에 대하여 실시간으로 침수를 예측할 수 있는 랜덤포레스트와 연계할 수 있다. 제시된 방법론은 댐의 과다한 방류량과 붕괴 현상을 재현하며, 도시의 수재해 대응능력 향상을 위한 기초자료를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

The Investment to road projects has been a hot issue in the aspect of its possible overlapping or overinvestment in Korea. Therefore, additional road construction is not always accepted in these days. This paper investigated several indices including the country index and the road-extension rate index as well as a newly developed index for identifying and comparing road stocks among the OECD countries. Furthermore, the study has estimated some reasonable amount of additional road stocks of Korea when its GDP becomes twenty thousands per capita to forty thousands per capita in future by comparing the amount of stacks of OECD countries at those times. The result can be used for setting the target of road stocks in practical manner in the absence of the universally accepted theory in the road stock provision arena.

In this paper, the 2018 elderly patient data sets among the patient sample data of the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service and the 260,425 statements of patients admitted to the long-term care hospitals were together used. Accordingly, the characteristics of each hospital type were analyzed by classifying the addition type of long-term care hospitals according to whether or not to secure the required manpower and whether or no to secure more than two-thirds of required nurses. However, in evaluating whether or not to secure more than 2/3 of necessary nurses and whether or not to secure the necessary manpower, the relative value points were not considered, and the same amounts of value has been maintained for 13 years, so the relevant value needs to be revised.

The Forbidden City in Beijing, China, served as the imperial palace and was a significant political and cultural center during the Ming and Qing dynasties. The complex architectural structure and artistic, symbolic elements of the Forbidden City continue to inspire modern artists and designers. However, there has been relatively little research on developing jewelry designs inspired by the Forbidden City, particularly in terms of color, form, and other elements. This study selected six major buildings from the Forbidden City and analyzed their exteriors and patterns, creating sketches based on this analysis. The colors were analyzed using the HSB color model. The research used the analyzed forms (double-eaved hipped roof, double-eaves gable and hip roof, and single-eaved hipped roof with four ridges), decorations (dragon patterns, three intersecting six-petal lattice), and color differences, the Hall of Supreme Harmony bracelet, Hall of Preserving Harmony earrings, and Hall of Central Harmony ring were completed. The study reinterprets the historical value and artistic beauty of the Forbidden City through contemporary jewelry design, presenting a new design paradigm that harmonizes tradition and modernity.

This experiment was conducted to a comparison of the productivity according to variety and forage quality by plant parts of imported silage corn (Zea mays, L) in Pyeongchang. The corns evaluated in this experiment were 8 varieties (P1184, P1151, P1194, P1543, P1345, P1429, P1443, and P2105) introduced from the United States, Pioneer Hybrid Co. The harvested corn was divided into 5 plant parts (leaf, stem, cob, husk, and grain), and the ratio of each part was calculated using dry weight and the feed value was analyzed. The emergence rate of corn was generally good except for the P1151 and P2105 varieties. The average tasseling date was July 24^th and the silking date was July 27^th, but the P2105 variety was late to July 28^th and August 1^st, and the remaining varieties were similar. P1345 was the highest (289 and 123 cm), and P1151 varieties were the lowest (267 and 101 cm) in the plant and ear height. Disease resistance was low in P1184, P1443 and P1429, and P1197 and P1345 were high. In the case of stover, the dry matter (DM) content was the lowest at 19.6% in the P1151 and the highest at 24.9% in the P1429. DM content of ear was the highest in the P2105 (55.5%), and P1184 (54.2%) and P1345 (54.3%) were also significantly higher (p<0.05). The DM yield of stover of P2105, P1429 and P1194 varieties was significantly higher (p<0.05), and ear yield of P2105, P1345 and P1443 was higher. The proportions of each part of plants (leaf, stem, cob, husk, and grain) divided by 5 was high, with 50-60% of the ear(grain+cob) ratio. The ratio of husk and cob was roughly similar, and the leaf and stem part showed a ratio of about 20%. The crude protein (CP) content was highest in leaf, followed by grain. The CP content of the stem was the lowest, and the husk was not significantly different among the varieties (p>0.05). The acid detergent fiber (ADF) content was similar to the rest parts except grain, but the leaf part tended to be lower, and other parts except the stem and leaf showed no significant difference between varieties (p>0.05). There was no significant difference in NDF (neutral detergent fiber) content in husk, but there was a difference between varieties in other parts (p<0.05). In addition, there was a special difference by plant parts for each variety, P2015 on the stem, P1197 on the leaf, P1151 on the cob, P1197 on the husk, and P1197 on the grains with high NDF content. IVDMD (in vitro dry matter digestibility) was not significantly different between stems and grains, but there was a difference between varieties in cobs and husks. According to the results, DM yield of P2105 variety was the best in the experiment, and the ratio of grain was excellent in P1543 and P1345. In addition, it was found that the feed value was higher in the leaves and grains, and the leaf and stem had higher feed values than husk or cob.

The concept of 'carbon footprint' has been developed as a means of quantifying the specific emissions of the greenhouse gases (GHGs) that cause global warming. Although there are still neither clear definitions of the term nor rules for units or the scope of its estimation, it is broadly accepted that the carbon footprint is the total amount of GHGs, expressed as $CO_2$ equivalents, emitted into the atmosphere directly or indirectly at all processes of the production by an individual or organization. According to the ISO/TS 14067, the carbon footprint of a product is calculated by multiplying the units of activity of processes that emit GHGs by emission factor of the processes, and by summing them up. Based on this, 'carbon labelling' system has been implemented in various ways over the world to provide consumers the opportunities of comparison and choice, and to encourage voluntary activities of producers to reduce GHG emissions. In the agricultural sector, as a judgment basis to help purchaser with ethical consumption, 'low-carbon agricultural and livestock products certification' system is expected to have more utilization value. In this process, the 'cradle to gate' approach (which excludes stages for usage and disposal) is mainly used to set the boundaries of the life cycle assessment for agricultural products. The estimation of carbon footprint for the entire agricultural and forestry sector should take both removals and emissions into account in the "National Greenhouse Gas Inventory Report". The carbon accumulation in the biomass of perennial trees in cropland should be considered also to reduce the total GHG emissions. In order to accomplish this, tower-based flux measurements can be used, which provide a direct quantification of $CO_2$ exchange during the entire life cycle. Carbon footprint information can be combined with other indicators to develop more holistic assessment indicators for sustainable agricultural and forestry ecosystems.

Profitability of upland crops is better than paddy crops and proportion of upland is increasing. However, there is a lack of infrastructures for upland irrigation. The object of this study were to develop water supply scenarios using individual and collective agricultural wells to evaluate economic feasibility to consider geographical analysis of upland farms and water supply facilities. Cheongyang, Dangjin, Yesan, and Goesan were selected as study areas where four different crops of red pepper, chinese cabbage, apple, and bean, respectively, were mainly produced in Chungcheong province. As a result, B/C ratio was estimated as 1.49, 1.36, 1.90, and 0.71 in using individual wells scenario, and 1.45, 1.20, 1.91, and 0.65 in using collective wells scenario for red pepper, chinese cabbage, apple, and bean. It turned out that change of price effected on economic feasibility a lot for crops with low production income. As a result of evaluating economic feasibility by number of plots for developing collective well, there was no effect of economy of scale for red pepper and chinese cabbage. In case of collectivizating more than 20 upland plots, effect of economy of scale appeared for apple and bean. In conclusion, development of water using high value crops including red pepper and apple, and effect of collective well requires additory analysis of .spatial distribution of farms.

The purpose of this study is to find ways of evaluating the suitability of sites being considered for development of different types of parks in the vicinity of yangmock-myun kyoung buk, where a large project(as large as about14.0$km^2$) has been planned. The results are as follows. Three surveys for selecting the assessment indicators were performed. ${\cdot}$ The first survey analyzed the importance of 23 selected assessment indicators based on a review of existing literature review and an on-the-spot research. ${\cdot}$ The second survey selected assessment indicators for each park type. ${\cdot}$ The third survey computed additive values of selected assessment indicators by the park types. It used a method of standardizing the average importance of indicators by making their sum equal to 10. These additive values were then multiplied by each grade of indicators to make a final evaluation. An evaluation of the site-suitability of park types was performed twice. The purpose of the first evaluation was to figure out how much each type met the minimum requirements targeted for all landscape types. The minimum requirements were derived by using a relative comparison between the standard of value rating of the assessment indicators, which was over the medium magnitude on the importance analysis, and the result of field research. A second evaluation estimated the targeted sites that met the minimum requirements. Value ratings of second assessment indicators were quantitatively divided as 1 to 3 grade and the evaluation scores were added, giving an additive value for each assessment indicator. The evaluation score on each park type was rated on a scale of 1 to 3 according to their averages, (from lowest to highest). Since this evaluation model of the site suitability on park types only focused on the 'face' of space in this study, additional analysis is necessary for setting the evaluation model and incorporating the overall impact of space, network connection and other factors, considering 'spot', 'line' and 'face' aspects of space.
