Residential space can be stated as a decisive body compositely affected by environmental, physical, social, and cultural influences. Resulting from this idea, residential space can be defined as a mirror reflecting peoples' life at that period. Therefore, it is possible to understand the social and cultural aspects of a certain era through analyzing the residential space built and used at that period. Viewing from this point, latter term of Chosun Period, as a transitional period, was a tie of collapse for the structure of middle-class society forcing its identity system to be reorganized, and of improving upon commerce, agriculture, and manual industry to enable modernization. Following this idea, the goal of this research is to analyze characteristics of higher middle class residences built at the close of 19th century in Gyeonggi province in order to bring into light the change of social structure of the period.

Nowadays, natural resource are running out and the level of the environment contamination is getting serious. To solve these problems, each country and institute tend to need many-sided researchs and developments. At this point, especially, there are many coal-mines in Jung-sun and Tae-back where are located in Kangwon province. By the way the abandoned mines cause not only local economy collapse but also environment contamination by submergence of stony mountains. The counterplan is positively inquired further examination by the government. Consequently, we hope that the recycle of polymer concrete can reduce the environment contamination, suggest the new direction of Green Design and can be switched over high added value goods. In conclusion, the recycle of polymer concrete will be valuable.

FACTS devices, such as the Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) and Static Var Compensators (SVC), can help increase system load margin to improve static voltage stability. In power systems, because of the high cost and the effect value, the optimal placement for FACTS devices must be determined. This paper investigates the use of the series device (SVC) and the parallel device (TCSC) from the point of load margin to increase voltage stability. It considers the sensitivity of load margin to the line reactance and eigenvector of the collapse. The study has been carried out on the IEEE 14 Bus Test System to verify the validity and efficiency of the method. It reveals that incorporation of FACTS devices significantly enhance load margin as well as system stability.

This paper describes the algorithm which can not only take account of voltage suability but also consider small signal stability. As for voltage stability both CPF and PoC methods are utilized to pinpoint the exact voltage collapse point. Then, using the converged load flow results full system matrix is configured and its eigenvalues are computed. The suggested algorithm is applied to the Two-area system, and verified its usefulness. In addition this paper also deals with the results of analyzing the two-area system in terms of voltage stability and small signal stability.

In this paper, poly (N-(2-4-imidazolyl) ethyl) maleimide-alt-1-octadecene (IMI-O) polymer which can complex metal ion was used to confirm the possibility of molecular device made by Langmuir-Blodgett method. Metal/Insulator/Metal (MIM) device was fabricated for investigation of electric properties. In the ${\pi}$-A isotherm, surface pressure at collapse point was different as to the molecular weight of metal ion complexed respectively, In I-V characteristics, currents of MiM devices were different at the same voltage. It was thought that phenomena was occurred by interaction between function group and metal ion.

The most of conventional power flow(PF) calculations which adopt the well-known numerical methods such as Newton-Raphson method often diverge in certain critical cases like near the voltage collapse point. Some Approaches have been reported for the application of Genetic Algorithm(GA) to PF problem to overcome the disadvantages mentioned above. This paper presents a new application technique of GA for PF problem, in which some improvements and modifications are made ; modification of fitness function, improvements on crossover method, mutation law and convergence criterion, introduction of reactive power check routine. Some case studies with IEEE 5, 6, 14 bus systems are performed to show the performance of proposed algorithm.

The paper presents a new method for the analysis of the cavitation behaviour of hydraulic turbomachines. This new method allows determining the coefficient of the cavitation inception and the cavitation sensitivity of the turbomachines. We apply this method to study the cavitation behaviour of a large storage pump. By plotting in semi-logarithmic coordinates the vapour volume versus the cavitation coefficient, we show that all numerical data collapse in an exponential manner. By analysis of the slope of the curve describing the evolution of the vapour volume against the cavitation coefficient we determine the cavitation sensitivity of the pump for each operating point.

In the paper, the system loss sensitivity index that implies the incremental system loss with respect to the change of bus power is derived using optimization technique. The index λ reaches $\infty$ at critical loading point and can be applied to actual power systems for following purposes. 1) Evaluation of system voltage stability 2)Optimal investment of reactive power focused on minimizing system loss and maximizing system voltage stability 3)Optimal re-location of reactive power focused on minimizing system loss and maximizing system voltage stability 4)Optimal load shedding in case of severe system contingency focused on minimizing system loss and maximizing system voltage stability. Case studies for each application have proved their effectiveness.

This paper describes the practical application of Non-Divergent Power Flow (NDPF) solution in power system analysis. NDPF algorithm prevents the power flow solution from diverging due to the arithmetic error in Newton method, and indicates voltage collapse point. In addition to that, NDPF solution provides us with useful information for evaluating voltage profile in such cases.

Quasi-static three-point bending tests on sandwich beams with expanded metal sheets as core were conducted. Relationships between the force and displacement at the mid-span of the sandwich beams were obtained from the experiments. Numerical simulations were carried out using ABAQUS/EXPLCIT and the results were thoroughly compared with the experimental results. A parametric analysis was performed using a Box-Behnken design (BBD) for the design of experiments (DOE) techniques and a finite element modeling. Then, the influence of the core layers number, size of the cell and, thickness of the substrates was investigated. The results showed that the increase in the size of the expanded metal cell in a reasonable range was required to improve the performance of the structure under bending collapse. It was found that core layers number and size of the cell was key factors governing the quasi-static response of the sandwich beams with lattice cores.
