The domestic construction market started to expand steadily since 1970s. The building market which utilizes a sandwich panel with advantages of economical construction expenses and convenient construction has grown rapidly in recent years. However, the companies which specialize in constructing sandwich panels are relatively small or medium size, compared with other construction companies. As a result, studies on the improvement of productivity have not been conducted sufficiently. In this study, the construction sites of sandwich panel are investigated, and the work processes by each team are analyzed. Additionally, the productivity and the construction cost of each construction team are analyzed by constructing a model using the Web-Cyclone. It is expected that the results of this study can be applied to estimate the productivity and the construction cost of a sandwich panel construction that is appropriate for the on-site characteristics of small and medium sized construction companies in Korea. Also, similar processes can be simulated based on the modeling constructed in this study.

Thanks to the latest developments in digital architectural technologies, free-form designs that maximize the creativity of architects have rapidly increased. However, there are a lot of difficulties in forming various free-form curved surfaces. In panelizing to produce free forms, the methods of mesh, developable surface, tessellation and subdivision are applied. The process of applying such panelizing methods when producing free-form panels is complex, time-consuming and requires a vast amount of manpower when extracting production data. Therefore, algorithms are needed to quickly and systematically extract production data that are needed for panel production after a free-form building is designed. In this respect, the purpose of this study is to propose mathematical algorithms for the automatic generation of production data of free-form panels in consideration of the building model, performance of production equipment and pattern information. To accomplish this, mathematical algorithms were suggested upon panelizing, and production data for a CNC machine were extracted by mapping as free-form curved surfaces. The study's findings may contribute to improved productivity and reduced cost by realizing the automatic generation of data for production of free-form concrete panels.

발포금속은 1948년에 Sosnik에 의해 알루미늄에 수은을 증발시키는 방법으로 발포 알루미늄을 제조한 이래, 1951년 Elliot에 의해 진보된 방식인 발포 매개체를 용탕에혼입하는 방법으로 발포금속을 제조하기 시작하였다. 현재 이들 선진국가의 생산방법 및 현황은 균질 기공의 조절, 연속주조 방식과 원가절감, 그리고 제조기술의 진보를 통하여 다양한 분야에 적용되고 있다. 그러나 실용화를 위해서는 요구특성을 만족하고 동시에 가격 경쟁력을 가진 제조기술의 보유 및 개발과 독특한 특성을활용한 새로운 적용 분야의 개척이 필요하다고 생각되며, 이를 위해 Harvard, MIT, Aachen, HMI 등 구미 유수 대학과 NASA, 미국방성등의 연구기관, ERG, 신강(新鋼) wire등 산업체를 중심으로제조 및 특성평가에 관한 기초연구와 활용방안이 활발히 모색중에 있다. 그리고 일부 자동차 생산 업체를중심으로 발포금속을 적용한 초경량, 에너지 절감형의 자동차 부품 소재,항공기 방열판 등에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 특히 금속 기체의 GASAR 공법은 Lotus 공법으로 Osaka 대학에서 개발되어 열교환기, 항공기, 방열기 등으로 응용이 확대되고 있다 국내에서 완제품생산은 실내장식용 복합패널로서 한소 프라임이 운영상의 문제로 생산을 중단하였으며, 유닉슨(주), 금강(주)에서 Batch식, 금성산업에서 Pot식이 일부 생산 및 연구가 진행되었으나 현재는 본연구실의 협조로 (주) 폼텍에서 발포패널을 주로 생산하고 있고 (주)드림메탈과 (주)아크로폼텍에서일부 생산되고, (주)동일알루미늄에서는 폐 scrap을 이용한 발포 Al 제조가 연구단계에 있다. 생기원에서는 분말 가열 흡음패널이 개발되었으나 강도와 내열성이 낮아 이들 특성을 향상시크는 연구가 진행중이다. 이들 제품은 성능상으로는 동양강판의 흡음패널과 KIMM의 필터용은연구개발이 낮은 수준이며, 본 연구팀과 공동 개발한 (주)폼텍의 복합패널은 10여 가지의 실용특허로 건축마감재로서 오히려 선진국수준을능가한 상태이다, 한편, 발포금속 기능성 개발은, 이들이 가지고 있는 우수한 특성 때문에 군수용으로부터 민수 산업용까지 전분야에 적용이 가능한 소재이므로 수요처를확장하고 있으므로 제품의 균질성, 안정성과 기능성 개발 향상을 위해 지속적이고 체계적인 연구가 필요하다고 생각된다.

The most critical issue in free-form buildings is how to construct the free-formed exterior facade panels. Their geometric complexity delivers many cons and problems in fabricating and constructing their shapes. To construct a free-form building, first of all, its skin has to be chopped into small pieces, which is called panelization. After panelization, the panels go through an optimization process to construct them economically. The panel's geometries are modified or regenerated through this optimization process. In this study, the panel optimization process of free-form buildings are performed through a case study. The panel shapes of the case study are modeled with Digital Project. To test the constructability of the various panels, 8 mock-up panels are made and laser scanning technology is applied to measure the preciseness of the panels manufactured in comparison with their original design.

This paper adopts recently developed panel unit root test that is cross-sectionally robust. Cointegration test is also used to find whether regional house prices are in line with gross regional domestic production (GRDP) in the long run in Korea during 1989-2009. Based on the panel VECM and the panel ARDL models, we examine causal relationships among the variables and estimate the long-run elasticity. We find evidence of cointegration and bidirectional causal relationships between regional house prices and GRDP. The results of long-run estimates, using both fixed effect and ARDL models, show that house prices positively and significantly influence on the GRDP and vice versa. Together with these results, the findings of ARDL-ECM imply that there exists a long-run equilibrium relationship between house prices and regional economic variables even if there is a possibility of short-run deviation from its long-run path.

Additionally, the productivity and the construction cost of each work group are analyzed by constructing a model using the Web-Cyclone. It analyzed sensitivities about change of productivity and work costs following in processing place of the panel which is one of the productivity effect factors, so it assayed the optimized productivity by each work group and work costs. Analysis showed that 30% of productivity has improved compared with the factory processing work group, and analysis of work costs showed that about 15% of work costs was increased. Also sensitivity analysis of opening ratio showed that the work costs optimization will be accomplished when about 20% of opening was processed from the factory.

This paper constructs panel data of inventors listed on patents applied for the KIPO during 1991-2005 and analyzes the effects of network characteristics on inventor productivity. The findings are as follows: ⅰ) Strong ties within a network have positive effects on inventor productivity. ⅱ) An inventor with high centrality shows high producitivity. ⅲ) Technological diversity of a network enhances inventor productivity. ⅳ) An inventor belonging to a network of good quality shows higher productivity. ⅴ) Network size is positively related with inventor producitvity. ⅵ) A lone inventor shows the highest productivity among types of inventors, and a co-inventor with the experience of standalone invention is more productive compared to an inventor with only the experience of co-invention. ⅶ) The productivity effects of network variables differ across regions. ⅷ) Differences among regions do not decrease though geographical boundaries become less important.

In this article, I were trying to analyze the listed manufacturing companies' trend of productivity and the corporate education & training effect after the financial crisis. According to the analysis, the listed manufacturing companies have decreased their productivity since financial crisis, and from such declining trend. jobless growth and a growth without physical and human capital investment has been observed. Furthermore, there is no efficient labor force coordination within the manufacturing industry; In order to analyze the effect of education & training investment on productivity more deeply, I have practiced the dynamic panel data analysis from constructing the micro panel data which consists of company level information 1997~2008. According to the consequences, dynamic panel data analysis solved the problem of the overestimating education & training effect fairly well.

Evaluation indices of the panelizing optimization for Architectural freeform surfaces are proposed for quantitative evaluation through the case studies on panelizing optimization and evaluation index for Architectural freeform surfaces. Proposed evaluation items are adherence to original design intent, production ease, and continuity. The evaluation index for adherence to original design intent is surfaces fitness, the evaluation indices for production ease are planarity, planar panel ratio, and the evaluation indices for continuity are tangent continuity, and divergence. Algorithms are also suggested to compute the proposed evaluation indices.
