  • 본 연구는 생활환경 지능화(Ambient Intelligence 이하 AmI)의 기술적 변화와 Ambient Display와 Ambient Media 등을 바탕으로 Ambient Art의 개념과 특성을 도출하고, 이를 통한 감성 커뮤니케이션 연구의 가능성을 살펴 보았다. 앞으로의 사회는 AmI의 환경으로 변화해 갈 것이다. AmI란 인간 중심의 지능형 컴퓨터, 네트워크, 인터페이스 기술을 기반으로 우리의 주변환경이 지능을 갖게 된 상황을 말한다. 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅, 무선 네트워크와 같은 AmI의 기술들은 새로운 미디어를 만들고 이러한 미디어는 우리의 인식과 커뮤니케이션 방식을 변화시키고 있다. 기술의 발달은 빠른 반면, 그 기술을 사용하는 사람의 적응속도는 느리기 때문에 사람이 어떻게 새로운 기술에 적응할 것인가는 핵심적 문제다. 감성 커뮤니케이션 연구는 이런 문제들을 해결하는데 큰 도움을 줄 뿐만 아니라, 사람들의 감성 욕구까지 채워줄 수 있다. 그러나 감성은 순간적이며 복합적이고 무의식적으로 발생하고 수시로 변하기 때문에 연구하기가 쉽지 않다[1]. 본 연구에서 정의한 Ambient Art는 일상의 환경에서 자연스럽게 접할 수 있으며 사용자의 직접적인 인지가 없이도 감상할 수 있는 예술로, 기술이 환경에 스며들게 되는 것처럼 예술이 환경에 스며들어 궁극적으로 언제 어디서나 감상이 가능한 전시공간의 유비쿼터스화를 지향한다. 이러한 Ambient Art는 감성커뮤니케이션 연구의 새로운 대안책으로 생각해 볼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 Ambient Art의 5가지 특성을 상황인지, 분위기, 개인화, 상호작용, 자가성장으로 나누어 살펴 보았다. 또한 Ambient Art의 개념과 특성을 반영한 작품 City Forest를 제안하였다. 이 작품은 사람들의 활동에 의해 달라지는 시각적 감성 전달을 통해 이성보다 앞서 있는 감성을 자극하여 개인과 환경, 환경과 환경끼리의 상호 작용을 촉진시켜 Ambient Art를 통한 감성 커뮤니케이션을 보여주었다는데 의의가 있다.

  • 현대 도시의 새로운 이미지 창출을 위해서 공공예술은 중요한 요소이다 과거 조형적 작품으로 이루어지던 공공예술은 미디어아트, 인터렉티브 아트등 새로운 예술분야로의 접목이 늘어나는 경향이 나타난다. 그러나 인터렉티브 아트가 공공예술로 정착되기에는 가기고 있는 문제점이 있다. 이를 보완하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 엠비언트 아트(Ambient Art)를 활용하였다. 엠비언트 인텔리전스(Ambient Intelligence)에서 파생된 개념으로의 엠비언트 아트는 Ambient Display와 Ambient Media 등을 사용하여 사용자의 주의 없이도 환경정보를 활용하여 인터렉션을 일으켜 작품에 생명력을 부여하는 예술장르를 말한다. 기존 연구에 의하면, 엠비언트 아트는 상황인지, 개인화, 분위기, 상호작용, 자가성장의 5가지 특성을 지닌다. 그러나 엠비언트 아트가 공공예술로 사용되기 위해선 소통, 보안, 선택권의 3가지 요소가 필요하다. 공공공간이 지니고 있는 특성과 공공예술이 가지는 파급효과를 고려하면, 3가지 요소가 중요하다. 보다 높은 수준의 소통과 과도한 관객의 상황정보 수집으로부터의 보호, 관객의 작품 참여 선택권은 엠비언트 아트가 가져할 구성요소이다. 본 논문에서는 3가지 요소를 포함하는 새로운 장르의 공공예술(New Genre Public Art)의 공공 엠비언트 아트(Public Ambient Art)를 제시하여 대안을 마련하는데 의의가 있다.

  • Six yearling Suffolk ewes were used to study the effect of different roughage proportion diets (30%=LR, and 70%=HR) and intake levels (0.7 M and 1.3 M) on heat production and thermoregulatory responses in sheep exposed to different ambient temperatures (20 and $30^{\circ}C$). Sheep fed HR had higher heat production (HP) and time spent eating (TSE) and lower time spent standing (TSS) than those fed LR. But effect of roughage proportion on vaginal temperature (Tv) was obvious only at high intake and at $30^{\circ}C$. Sheep fed high intake had higher Tv, HP, TSS, and TSE than those fed low intake. Roughage proportion and intake level did not have an effect on respiration rate (RR), but ambient temperature did. Ambient temperature did not have an effect on HP, TSS and TSE. At $30^{\circ}C$ sheep had higher Tv and RR than those at $20^{\circ}C$. There were interactions between intake level and ambient temperature in TSS, between intake level and roughage proportion in TSE, and between roughage proportion and ambient temperature in HP. Results indicate that high roughage diet imposes a greater potential heat load on animals than low roughage diet when given at high ambient temperature, but not at low ambient temperature. And the effects is more pronounced at high intake.

  • 업믹스(Upmix) 기술은 홈시어터와 같은 다채널 스피커 재생 환경에서 콘텐츠의 대부분을 차지하는 스테레오 음원을 다채널 환경에 재생하기 위한 채널 포맷 변환 기술을 말한다. 업믹스를 위한 전처리 단계로서 특정 방향으로 패닝된 주(primary)성분과 잔향 및 배경음과 같은 Ambient 성분을 분리하는 과정이 필요하다. Primary와 Ambient를 분리하기 위한 방법으로 채널 간의 상관도, 적응 필터 및 주성분 분석법(principal component analysis, PCA)이 널리 이용되고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 비교적 정확하게 Primary와 Ambient를 분리한다고 알려진 주성분 분석법을 이용하여 신호를 분리해 내고 이 때 주성분 분석법이 가지는 문제점을 해결한 향상된 Primary-Ambient 분리 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 분리 성능이 Primary 성분이 패닝된 각도에 영향을 받지 않으며 또한 Primary 성분에 섞인 잔여 Ambient를 제거함으로써 기존의 주성분 분석법 보다 더 정확하게 Primary와 Ambient를 분리 할 수 있고 상관성이 없는 Ambient 특성을 좀 더 정확하게 반영한다.

  • The focus of this work is placed on the analysis of the mixture formation mechanism under the evaporative diesel spray of impinging and free conditions. As an experimental parameter, ambient gas density was selected. Effects of density variation of ambient gas on liquid and vapor-phase inside structure of evaporation diesel spray were investigated. Ambient gas density was changed between ${\rho}a=5.0\;kg/m^3$ and $12.3\;kg/m^3$. In the case of impinging spray, the spray spreading to the radial direction is larger due to the decrease of drag force of ambient gas in the case of the low density than that of the high density. On the other hand, in the case of free spray, in accordance with the increase in the ambient gas density, the liquid-phase length is getting short due to the increase in drag force of ambient gas. In order to examine the homogeneity of mixture consisted of vapor-phase fuel and ambient gas in the spray, image analysis was conducted with statistical thermodynamics based on the non-dimensional entropy (S) method. In the case of application of entropy analysis to diesel spray, the entropy value always increases. The entropy of higher ambient density is higher than that of lower ambient gas density during initial injection period.

  • Sponataneous ignition characteristics for granulated activated carbon were observed by performing experiments at constant ambient temperature and varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally. In case of varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally, the amplitudes of temperature were 5$^{\circ}C$, 1$0^{\circ}C$ and 15$^{\circ}C$ respectively, and the period in each amplitude was varied at an interval of 30minutes from zero to 3hours. As the results of experiments at a constant ambient temperature, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature of the sample decreased as the sample vessel size increased. Apparent activation energy of the sample calculated from the Frank-Kamenetskii's thermal Ignition theory was 38.82[kca1/mo1] In case of varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally, the critical spontaneous ignition tempera-ture was lower than that at the constant ambient temperature, and the minimum critical spontaneous ignition temperature decreased with the amplitude of heating sinusoidal curve. At the same amplitude, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature decreased until it reached the minimum point and then in-creased as the period increased.

  • In this paper, we present an ambient light backscatter communication design that enables Internet of Things (IoT) devices to communicate through the backscattering ambient light emitted from lighting infrastructure or sunlight. The device can selectively modulate ambient light by switching a liquid crystal display (LCD) shutter located on its surface, so that a nearby smart device, which includes a photodiode or a camera, can demodulate this backscattered light information. To verify the practicality of the proposed concept, we design an IoT device equipped with a commercial LCD shutter and a microcontroller. Our device produces ambient light backscattered data at a speed of 100 bps, and these data are successfully decoded by a commercial photodiode module 10 cm away from the IoT device. We believe that our ambient light backscatter communication design is appropriate for implementation in various IoT applications.

  • The Ieodo Ocean Research Station(IORS) is an integrated meteorological and oceanographic observation base which was constructed on the Ieodo underwater rock located at a distance of about 150 km to the south-west of the Mara-do, the southernmost island in Korea. The underwater ambient noise level observed at the IORS was similar to the results of the shallow water surrounding the Korean Peninsula (Choi et al. 2003) and was higher than that of deep ocean (Wenz 1962). The wind dependence of ambient noise was dominant at frequencies of a few kHz. The surface current dependence of ambient noise showed good correlation with the ambient noise in the frequency of 10 kHz. Especially, the shrimp sound was estimated through investigations of waveform and spectrum and its main acoustic energy was about 40 dB larger than ambient noise level at 5 kHz.

  • The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of ambient conditions on the spray behavior of biodiesel-ethanol blended fuels. In order to analyze the spray behavior, spray tip penetration and spray cone angle were obtained from the visualization system and the effects of ethanol blending are compared macroscopic characteristics with the numerical results. It was reveled that the ethanol contents in biodiesel-ethanol blended fuels affect the spray tip penetration a little and increased the spray cone angle. Increased ambient pressure induced the decrease of the spray tip penetration, and the increased ambient temperature lead to the increase of the spray tip penetration. In addition, the increased ambient temperature promoted the vaporization and atomization of spray with the effect of increasing ethanol fuel.
