East Asian explain the changes of substance happened on earth and those of human life with the conceptual frame of "Gi-ki"(地氣; earth vital energy) and organize them by the system of "Feng-shui(風水) theory. The core of Feng-shui theory is reading the expression of the nature and feeling the Gi-ki from the expression. One of the properties of the earth is that the earth has a magnetic field associated with it- the Geomagnetic field. The geomagnetic field is produced by a combination of the effects of electric currents in the earth's liquid core, the magnetization of crustal rocks, external electric current systems that surround the earth and currents induced in the outer layers of the earth by magnetic field variations. The sameness of logic between Feng-shui and geopathic zones is that both are concerned with the discrimination of site and the energy of places, in other words both disciplines are concerned with how the environment can influence people. In this context the operation of Gj-ki can be related with the effect caused by geomagnetic field on site. In this study Jongmyo(宗廟), one of the representative traditional architecture in Korea is selected because the site selection and building layout follows Feng-shui faithfully according to Taejo silok (太祖實錄, Annals of King Taejo). Observing the landforms surrounding Jongmyo, Jongmyo is apparently located in auspicious places named Gumge Poranhyoeng(金鷄抱卵形, a Feng-shui landscape of golden hen sitting on eggs). The geomagnetic investigation of Jongmyo shows that the geomagnetic values of Toekan(the space near Hyeol) are relatively high and uniform and those of Sangweoldae and Haweoldae are decreased in accordance with the distance. The result shows that there is possibility that Feng-shui has scientific basis related with geomagnetic field. Feng-shui theory can suggest a direction for designing the sustainable building for living with nature.

The development of digital media made the change of architectural paradigm from tectonic to the surface and pattern. This means the transition to the new kind of materiality and the resurrection of ornament. This study started as an aim to apply biological pattern to architectural design from the new perception of pattern. Architectural patterns in the early era appeared as ladders, steps, chains, trees, vortices. But since 21st century, we can find patterns in nature like atoms and molecular structures, fluid forms of dynamics and new geometrical pattern like fractal and first of all biological patterns like viruses and micro-organisms, Voronoi cells, DNA structure, rhizomes and various hybrids and permutations of these. Pattern became one of the most important elements and themes of contemporary architecture through the change of materiality and resurrection of ornament with the new perception of surface in architecture. One of the patterns that give new creative availability to the architectural design is biological pattern which is self-organized as an optimum form through interaction with environment. Biological patterns emerge mostly as self-replicating patterns through morphogenesis, certain geometrical patterns(in particular triangles, pentagons, hexagons and spirals). The architectural application methods of biological patterns are direct figural pattern of organism, circle pattern, polygon pattern, energy-material control pattern, differentiation pattern, parametric pattern, growth principle pattern, evolutionary ecologic pattern. These patterns can be utilized as practical architectural patterns through the use of computer programs as morphogenetic programs like L-system, MoSS program and genetic algorithm programs like Grasshoper, Generative Components with the help of computing technology like mapping and scripting.

본 연구는 친환경 건축의 대안으로 부각되고 있는 한옥의 열환경 평가를 수행하기 위하여 한옥을 구성하고 있는 건축요소의 전열 메카니즘을 규명하기 한옥건축부재의 규격화와 모델링을 통하여 열환경을 평가하였다. 최근 친환경 건축, 생태건축의 모델로 일반의 한옥 선호도는 높아지고 있으나, 한옥의 우수성이 정성적으로만 평가되고 있다. 이에 한옥의 건축재료 및 형태와 같은 건축요소를 고려, 한옥 건축요소의 Geometry를 작성하여 솔리드 모델을 구축하고, 열환경 평가의 도구로써 CFD를 적용하여 한옥의 실내 열환경을 평가하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 복잡한 형태의 Geometry 작성이 가능한 CATIA와 환경 시물레이션 Code인 FLUENT 등의 상용 Code를 활용함으로써 연구의 신뢰성을 높이고자 하였다. 본 연구는 일차적으로 서울지방에 건축된 한옥의 기준모델을 설정하여 벽, 천정, 바닥, 창호 등 건축요소의 부위별 형태를 고찰하고, Geometry작성의 입력자료로 사용하기 위하여 각 부위별 치수체계를 구축하였다. 건축요소의 부위별 각각의 형태를 솔리드 모델로 구축하기 위하여 단계별로 벽, 천정, 바닥, 창호 등에 관한 건축요소의 Geometry를 모델링하여 CFD 입력자료로 활용하여 열환경 시물레이션을 수행하였다.
