The purpose of this research is to select representative observation stations for winter observation equipment performance tests and to present indoor and outdoor conditions for performance tests by considering snowfall, snowfall days, latitude, and altitude distribution for observation stations operated by the Korea Meteorological Administration. Using the snowfall data observed during the winter for 30 years (1981-2010), ten representative observation stations are selected to consider the classification of snowfall days by class, latitude, and altitude distribution of observation stations. As a result of analysis, the suitable point for outdoor experiments was selected as Daegwallyeong, the average number of snowfall days and snowfall days of 5cm or more were 57.5 and 13.2 days, respectively. The indoor experimental conditions are considered to be suitable under temperatures of -15 to 5℃ and humidity of 50% or higher. Results of this research can be used as basic information for conditions and test beds for performance tests of equipment that can respond to heavy snow disasters in winter.

이전 연구에서 우리는 목적지까지 안전하게 보행할 수 있도록 하는 시각장애인용 보행안내 시스템을 개발하였다. 보행안내 시스템은 실내외 POI(Point of Interest)와 특정 위치마다 표식을 설치하고 보행 경로 탐색 알고리즘을 개발하여 사용자의 보행 위치를 추정할 수 있다. 실제 테스트베드에서는 시각장애인을 대상으로 실험을 수행하므로 실험 대상자가 위험 상황에 노출될 수 있기 때문에 모니터링이 필요하고 대용량의 실내외 지도 데이터를 저장하고 관리하는 것도 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 실험 대상자를 원격으로 모니터링 하고 대용량의 지도 데이터를 효과적으로 처리하는 제어 관리용 애플리케이션을 소개한다.

꿀벌의 실내월동에 이용되는 월동용 저온양봉사의 내부환경에 영향을 주는 요소에는 외기온, 저장봉군수, 환기량 등이 있다. 이러한 환경요인을 고려하여 설계 제작된 국내 월동용 저온양봉사의 성능 및 저장봉군수와 양봉사 내부온도의 관계를 분석하고자 경상북도의 7개 지역에 설치된 월동용 저온양봉사(내부크기 폭4.5m×길이3m×높이3m)에 대하여 2000. 11. 25부터 2001, 2. 15까지 실내월동 실험을 수행하였다. 실험대상 지역은 포항, 문경, 상주, 칠곡, 성주, 영양, 안동이며, 지역별 저장봉군수는 각각 14, 74, 85, 110, 163, 170, 260군이다(Table 1). 꿀벌의 월동기간 중 안동과 성주지역을 제외한 5개 지역의 실내 월동성적은 폐사율이 10％미만으로 대체적으로 우수한 것으로 조사되었으나, 월동기간중 지역별 외기온을 분석한 결과, 평균외기온 및 최저외기온이 가장 낮은 지역은 안동이었으며, 그 값이 각각 -3.1℃와 -9.4℃일 때 양봉사 내부의 평균온도와 최저온도는 5.2℃와 3.8℃로 나타났다. 반면에 평균외기온 및 최저외기온이 가장 높은 지역은 포항이었으며 그 값이 각각 1.3℃와 -4.1℃일 때 양봉사 내부의 평균온도와 최저온도는 각각 3.1℃와 1.2℃로 나타나 저온양봉사 내부의 온도환경 조절성능이 모두 우수한 것으로 판단되었다(Table 1). 또한 월동기간중 주.야간으로 양봉사 내.외부의 온도변화를 분석한 결과, 저장봉군수의 증가에 따라 주야간 모두 양봉사 내.외부 온도편차가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며 양봉사 내부의 주.야간 평균온도는 모두 꿀벌의 월동에 적정한 범위인 2℃-9℃를 유지하는 것으로 분석되었다(Table 2). 그리고, 월동기간중 외기온이 가장 낮은 시기(1월 13-19일)의 평균 외기온이 -8℃--9℃로 유사한 문경, 상주, 영양, 안동지역의 월동용 저온양봉사의 평균 내부온도는 각각 -2.0℃, -1.0℃, 0.2℃, 4.2℃로 나타나 저장봉군수가 증가함에 따라 월동용 저온양봉사의 내부온도가 증가하여 꿀벌의 월동에 적합한 온도범위를 유지함을 알 수 있었다. 실험기간동안 대부분의 저온양봉사 내부온도는 꿀벌이 월동하기에 적정한 온도범위(2℃-9℃)로 유지하였다(Fig. 1).

When performing experiments in indoor and outdoor environment, we need a system that monitors a volunteer to prevent dangerous situations and efficiently manages the data in real time. We developed a guidance device for visually impaired person that guides the user to walk safely to the destination in the previous study. We set a POI (Point of Interest) of a specific location indoors and outdoors and tracks the user's position and navigate the walking path using artificial markers and ZigBee modules as landmark. In addition, we develop path finding algorithm to be used for navigation in the guidance device. In the test bed, the volunteers are exposed to dangerous situations and can be an accident due to malfunction of the device since they are visually impaired person or normal person wearing a eye patch. Therefore the device requires a system that remotely monitors the volunteer wearing guidance device and manages indoor or outdoor a lot of map data. In this paper, we introduce a managing system that monitors the volunteers remotely and handles map data efficiently. We implement a management system which can monitor the volunteer in order to prevent a hazardous situation and effectively manage large amounts of data. In addition, we verified the effectiveness of the proposed system through various experiments.

To investigate a method for calculation of the heating load for environmental designs of horticultural facilities, measurements of total heating load, infiltration rate, and floor heat flux in a large-scale plastic greenhouse were analyzed comparatively with the calculation results. Effects of ground heat exchange and infiltration loss on the greenhouse heating load were examined. The ranges of the indoor and outdoor temperatures were $13.3{\pm}1.2^{\circ}C$ and $-9.4{\sim}+7.2^{\circ}C$ respectively during the experimental period. It was confirmed that the outdoor temperatures were valid in the range of the design temperatures for the greenhouse heating design in Korea. Average infiltration rate of the experimental greenhouse measured by a gas tracer method was $0.245h^{-1}$. Applying a constant ventilation heat transfer coefficient to the covering area of the greenhouse was found to have a methodological problem in the case of various sizes of greenhouses. Thus, it was considered that the method of using the volume and the infiltration rate of greenhouses was reasonable for the infiltration loss. Floor heat flux measured in the center of the greenhouse tended to increase toward negative slightly according to the differences between indoor and outdoor temperature. By contrast, floor heat flux measured at the side of the greenhouse tended to increase greatly into plus according to the temperature differences. Based on the measured results, a new calculation method for ground heat exchange was developed by adopting the concept of heat loss through the perimeter of greenhouses. The developed method coincided closely with the experimental result. Average transmission heat loss was shown to be directly proportional to the differences between indoor and outdoor temperature, but the average overall heat transfer coefficient tended to decrease. Thus, in calculating the transmission heat loss, the overall heat transfer coefficient must be selected based on design conditions. The overall heat transfer coefficient of the experimental greenhouse averaged $2.73W{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}C^{-1}$, which represents a 60% heat savings rate compared with plastic greenhouses with a single covering. The total heating load included, transmission heat loss of 84.7~95.4%, infiltration loss of 4.4~9.5%, and ground heat exchange of -0.2~+6.3%. The transmission heat loss accounted for larger proportions in groups with low differences between indoor and outdoor temperature, whereas infiltration heat loss played the larger role in groups with high temperature differences. Ground heat exchange could either heighten or lessen the heating load, depending on the difference between indoor and outdoor temperature. Therefore, the selection of a reference temperature difference is important. Since infiltration loss takes on greater importance than ground heat exchange, measures for lessening the infiltration loss are required to conserve energy.

When a train enters into a tunnel, a compression wave is generated by a front nose and a expansion wave is generated by a rear tail respectively. The interaction between pressure waves and the train makes the internal and external pressure of the train change dramatically. In this paper, we had measured the internal and external pressure variations of TTX and analyzed the pressure variations as the tunnel length. Also, the rate of internal pressure variations were investigated with the current airtight condition of TTX. In short tunnels, the internal and external pressure variation were not large because the superposition of pressure waves was not happened. In long tunnels, however, the rapid and large pressure variations were shown because of the superpositions between the same sort of pressure waves, such as expansion wave and expansion wave or compression wave and compression wave. In specific length tunnels, the pressure variation and the pressure variation rates were largely lessened because the compression wave and expansion wave were superposed.

The study was conducted to investigate the effects of climate on indoor environment of a swine house with natural. This study was tested in the beef swine stall at Young-in, Kyung-ki do. The test was experimented for the effect of interior environment by the outdoor environment and the interior-pan. The results are as follows. 1. In test 1 ($T_{out}$ : $25.7^{\circ}C$, without fan), an indoor air flow pattern was showed that entered from sidewall winch-curtain to went out of a indoor by the ridge winch-curtain. And the velocity of a section of the center was measured two times as large as the velocity of the floor. It is the acceleration of the velocity by thermal buoyancy. And, the entered air was rapidly dissipated by flow energy. So that in the swain livestock with sidewall winch-curtain is effected by thermal buoyancy. And the air temperature of the indoor was distributed more higher as compared with the outdoor temperature. This result is caused by the sensible heat from swine and the ventilation is restricted. 2. In test 2 (($T_{out}$ : $25.7^{\circ}C$, with fan), the velocity of a section of the center was measured more higher as compared with the test 1. And the variance of air velocity was distributed higher as compared with the test 1. This result is showed dead region of air flow with a fan operation. And, the variance of gas density was distributed lower as compared with the test 1.

LiDAR plays a key role in autonomous vehicles, where it is used to detect the environment in place of the driver's eyes, and its role is expanding. In recent years, there has been a growing need to test the performance of LiDARs installed in autonomous vehicles. Many LiDAR performance tests have been conducted in simulated and indoor(lab) environments, but the number of tests in outdoor(field) and real-world road environments has been minimal. In this study, we compared LiDAR performance under the same conditions lab and field to determine the relationship between lab and field tests and to establish the characteristics and roles of each test environment. The experimental results showed that LiDAR detection performance varies depending on the lighting environment (direct sunlight, led) and the detected object. In particular, the effect of decreasing intensity due to increasing distance and rainfall is greater outdoors, suggesting that both lab and field experiments are necessary when testing LiDAR detection performance on objects. The results of this study are expected to be useful for organizations conducting research on the use of LiDAR sensors and facilities for LiDAR sensors.

Ubiquitous computing and mobile technologies provide much scope for designing innovative learning experiences that can take place in a variety of indoor and outdoor settings, such as botanical gardens, parks, museums and classrooms. In this paper, we present our own innovative work for bridging indoor and outdoor field-trip learning activities with the support of RFID with reader device on ubiquitous environments. The function of our system is based on strategically located RFID tags placed on objects around settings which are identified using the mobile device installed to an RFID reader. The mobile device reads the RFID tag and sends the learner's request to the field-trip learning system. And learners can be learning activities according to theirs learning levels. We also focus on the use of intelligent agents to customize learning contents for individual learners. The result of our experiment indicates that learner enjoyed learning where mobile devices are used in the system, supporting the learning activities in the context of which they are taking place.
