In order to design and operate successfully the pressure differential system for smoke control which uses difference of pressure between compartments of building, architectural factors affecting the pressure field of building should be examined and the stack effect is one of the important factors. The field experiments on pressure field in two buildings of 21 stories and 31 stories in summer and winter season with regard to on/off condition of the pressure differential system are carried out to evaluate the influence of stack effect to evacuation and smoke management of high-rise building. In winter season when the stack effect increases, as the pressure differential system starts to operate, the pressure in upper stair rises largely due to the combination effect of the air infiltration from lobby to stair and the stack effect.

This paper deals with the lobby pressurization for smoke control in building fires. A computer program and related modeling technique are presented. The pressure difference between a lobby and a fire area is not able to be same among building floors because an injection fan can not be installed in each floor. The most remote area from the injection fan has therefore the smallest pressure difference if flow areas are not different through all floors. An adjacent floor from the injection fan has possibly too large pressure difference because the most remote lobby must also meet the required pressure difference over the fire area. Moreover this problem will lead to a larger capacity of the fan. It is showed that the fan capacity can be decreased by adjusting the flow area of air supply duct in each floor.

Generally, There is to install fire resist shutter or to compart between the office room and the atrium in the atrium buildings in Korea. But, Glass wall that is installed sprinkler which purpose to protect it from fire, is already installed between the office room and the atrium in the advanced nations. We study this problem as follow; We made the fire scenario, and analyze each scenario using FASTLite is fire modeling software and BREAK1 is to predict the window breakage time in the compartment fire. In this study, we can decide that fire compartmentalization between atrium and office rooms doesn't require in Atrium building if the material and fire protection system were reliable. Consequently, Korean Fire Protection Regulations have to consider in direction of increasing freedom of building.

The smoke control systems using pressure differentials are already well known as the most reliable method to prevent the smoke infiltration into the emergency stairs or safe spaces. However, it is true that many problems are domestically pointed out due to the insufficient understanding and technology on the smoke control systems using pressure differentials. In this regard, this work analyzed the effect of major factors for smoke control system using pressure differentials such as a duct area, opening area of air supply damper, improvement on open vestibules, stack effect and location of air supply. In conclusion, adequate pressure differentials can not be maintained in small duct because the smaller duct area have the large friction loss. Especially, It is confirmed that the major factor for deterioration of smoke control system performance is stack effect that makes pressure differentials smaller in the lower floors.

This study investigated the smoke blocking and control systems for the safety of residents evacuation and for the prevention of smoke spread through the central corridor in the event of central corridor type of intelligent building fire. We offered additional ways of utilizing smoke ventilators and intake ventilation equipment and utilized CFD-based fire simulation program(FDS Ver.5.5.3) in order to analyze the effect. As a result, many differences in the smoke block effect, depending on the application of smoke ventilator and location of installation, was found. In addition, the result was found that larger effect was showed not in the case of application of smoke ventilator in central corridor only but application in fire room. The reason is that the smoke leakage is blocked primarily as air is flowed in the fire room through open door by operation of intake smoke ventilator in the public corridor and secondarily, the smoke leakage to the public corridor could be blocked as fire and smoke were released to the opened smoke ventilator continuously. Especially, the effect was maximized through complex interactions by applying smoke ventilator and intake ventilation equipment in corridor together rather than applying smoke ventilator and intake ventilation equipment independently. The proposed measure through this study shall be considered from architectural plan as one of ways for blocking from smoke spread to the central corridor in the central corridor type of intelligent building. In addition, flaws on regulation shall be established and supplemented.

The purpose of this study is to identify and improve the performance of the adjacent room ventilation system in living room ventilation facilities, and compare and analyze the smoke control regulations of the NFPA code and the national fire safety standard (NFSC). The analysis method was fire dynamics simulation (FDS) and was used to analyze the, variations of the air supply amount, width of the boundary, change in indoor combustion and wind velocity of the incoming air. It was found to be advantageous to secure the clean layer when the amount of air supplied is less than the amount of discharged air in the fire room. However, in the supply room, it is more effective to secure the clean layer when the amount of supplied air is larger than the amount of discharged air, as a longer boundary width gives rise to better performance. In addition, it is necessary to consider the amount of air supplied and discharged as a function of the kind of flammable material. Moreover, decreasing the air inlet wind speed and amount of incoming air is advantageous for securing the clean layer of the fire room.

A particle system is defined as a collection of primitive particles that together represent irregular and ever-changing objects such as smoke, clouds, waterfalls, and explosions. A particle system can be a powerful tool for modeling a deformable object's motion and change of form since it has dynamic properties with time. As an object becomes more complicated and shows more chaotic behavior, however, we need much more parameters for describing its characteristics completely. Consequently, the conventional particle system leads to difficulty in managing all of the parameters properly since one parameter can affect the others. Moreover, motion equations for representing particles' behavior are usually approximated to gain speed-ups. The inevitable errors in calculating the equations can cause an unexpected outcome. In this paper, we present a new approach of applying fuzzy contol to mage particles' motion and attributes changes over time. We also give an implementation result of a fuzzy particle system to show the feasibility of the proposed method. Applications of the system to explosions, nebulae, volcanos, and grass are presented.

In this paper, we propose an efficient technique for improving the grid based fluid simulation by sub-grid visuals. The detailed turbulency generated efficiently by Vortex Particle Method are blended with the flow fields coming from the traditional incompressible Navier-Stokes solver. The algorithm enables large- and small- scale detail to be edited separately.

화재시 발생하는 연기 및 유독가스는 시야를 차단하여 피난을 지연시키고, 단시간 내에 다수의 사람을 사망케하기 때문에 이를 효과적으로 제어하여야 한다. 대구 지하철 방화사고에서 본 바와 같이 화학제품의 연소시 유독가스의 발생은 인체에 치명적이며 호흡곤란, 무기력증 등을 일으킬 수 있다. 또한 유독가스가 인체에 미치는 영향은 화재시 화염의 직접적인 영향으로 손상 또는 사망하는 경우보다 유독가스에 의한 질식이 더욱 많은 수를 차지한다.(중략)

연극이라는 것은 복합적인 표현예술장르로 하나의 요소가 아닌 여러 가지의 요소들아 합쳐져 연극이라는 예술작품을 만들게 되어 있다. 현대의 연극공연에서 영상의 비중은 날로 높아지고 있다. 무대 공간의 공간감, 협소함, 표현의 제약 등을 따져 볼 때 그것은 당연한 이유일지도 모른다. 연극이라는 것은 최종적으로 배우와 관객과 함께 호흡할 때 완성되는 것으로 배우의 연기에 따라 영상도 실시간으로 반응할 수 있어야한다. 이러기 위해서는 영상뿐만 아니라 배우와 인터렉션할 수 있는 영상의 제어 또한 상당부분 생각하지 않을 수 없다. 그리고 무대의 뜨거운 조명과 그 아래의 영상은 같은 빛으로 만들어진 작품이기 때문에 빛이라는 환경적 요인에서 벋어나지 못한다. 그 밖의 스크린의 존재와 무대의 조형물과의 조화 등도 생각해야 한다. 하지만, 연극의 성공은 관객의 몰입정도에 따라 결정된다. 몰입요소는 음악, 배우, 무대 등의 기존 연극요소가 있으며 여기에 영상 활용은 관객을 더욱 연극으로 몰입시킬 수 있는 또 다른 중요 표현방법이 된다. 그 영상의 활용방안과 문제점은 현재 여러 기술과 방법으로 해결되어지고 있으며, 연극에서 사용되는 영상은 더욱 발전 가능성과 활용 가치를 가지고 있다. 본 논문 이러한 대중문화인 연극에서 공간에서의 영상 미디어 활용의 중요성과 관객의 몰입에 관한 발전 가능성에 대한 연구이다.
