A simulation-based approach is proposed to study the protective actions taken by residents during nuclear emergencies using cognitive findings. Human perception-based behaviors are not heavily incorporated in the evacuation study for nuclear emergencies despite their known importance. This study proposes a generic framework of perception-based behavior simulation, in accordance with the ecological concept of affordance theory and a formal representation of affordance-based finite state automata. Based on the generic framework, a simulation model is developed to allow an evacuee to perceive available actions and execute one of them according to Newton's laws of motion. The case of a shadow evacuation under nuclear emergency is utilized to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed framework. The illustrated planning algorithm enables residents to compute not only prior knowledge of the environmental map, but also the perception of dynamic surroundings, using widely observed heuristics. The simulation results show that the temporal and spatial dynamics of the evacuation behaviors can be analyzed based on individual perception of circumstances, while utilizing the findings in cognitive science under unavoidable data restriction of nuclear emergencies. The perception-based analysis of the proposed framework is expected to enhance nuclear safety technology by complementing macroscopic analyses for advanced protective measures.

This study aims at suggesting the applicability of color combination based upon the characteristics of environmental color perception and the nuance concept of Natural Color System(NCS). The results are summarized below: First, NCS is a scientific coloring system in consideration of the relevance between people, light and environment, to be based on a phenomenological point of view. NCS can be called a psychometric model reflecting our natural color sense. Second, the color triangle established by NCS is one of the methods of expression based on the human visual mechanism, which is classified by two attributes of hue and nuance, not by the three color attributes of hue, lightness and saturation. The nuance concept of NCS implies the impression, atmosphere and tone that are perceived in colors, which are related to lightness and saturation. Accordingly, this paper suggests that the coloring arrangement emphasizing nuance and tone is more useful than hue in color planning. Third, aesthetic impression in environmental color perception is inclusive of instantly perceptive nuance, which is connected with affordance. The affordance is revealed by the different relation of similarity. In this regard, a strong relationship is noticed between color combination and the sense of pleasantness. The hypothesis regarding the complementation and similarity of contrasting nature is judged to provide observers with aesthetic order. Finally, this paper also suggests four harmonizing methods in the NCS color triangle based upon equal blackness, equal whiteness, equal chromaticness and same nuance. At the same time, opposition and a different concept of hue, lightness and lightness are combined complementarily with the nuance value to suggest patterns of color combination.

In elderly housing facilities where are elderly living facilities, the importance of outdoor space for psychological healing and stability, health improvement and environmental improvement is increasing, since elderly people suffer from depression and are hostile to these facilities. This study aims to identify if outdoor spaces in elderly housing facilities in Seoul have environments appropriate for the elderly and to suggest problems and improvements. For achieving this purpose, nine elderly housing facilities in Seoul were chosen and a field survey was conducted targeting five facilities with outdoor spaces. Based on the previous studies, the concepts of elderly housing facility and outdoor space were organized. Then, a checklist was drawn up as a framework of analysis for evaluating the present state of outdoor spaces of elderly housing facilities and space planning, and improvements were explored. It was found that elderly housing facilities in Seoul had good connectivity and accessibility to the surrounding areas, but there were few supporting facilities, except for resting places. Also, the result of analysis of the present state showed that most elderly housing facilities were located in high lands and the safety of elderly people was being threatened while moving, due to the absence of handrails. In conclusion, it is considered that outdoor space of elderly housing facility should be planned in consideration of safety, affordance and cognition out of the standards of researcher's evaluation tool.

본 연구는 건축공간의 현상학적 논의로 물리적 환경과 심리적 행태의 관계성에 주목하며, 특정한 관계에 의해 분화 구성된 김주태 가옥을 대상으로 공간의 구성 방법과 행태적 의미를 시각 구조적 관점에서 분석하였다. 김주태 가옥은 사용자의 사회문화적 관계를 반영하여 명확한 방법으로 분화되어 구성되었으며, 채와 담으로 에워싸인 물리적 조건으로 관계적이며 독립적인 영역성을 부여하고 있다. 각각 독립적으로 한정된 영역은 순차적으로 접근할 수 있도록 공간의 열림을 제안하고 있으며, 이와 같은 과정적 공간 구성방식은 유도된 공간경험 과정에서 상대적 차이를 지각하게 되고 점증적으로 강한 폐쇄성을 인지하게 된다. 가옥의 중심부에 위치하고 있는 사이마당은 사랑채와 안채 사이의 공간깊이를 더욱 강조하는 입체적 층을 형성하고 있으며, 물리적 크기는 상대적으로 작은 공간이지만 관찰자 시점의 위치설정(공간의 원근감), 짧은 주기의 반복적 방향전환, 켜(layer)의 중첩 등의 환경적 조건에 의해 유도된 심리적 행태는 실제적 크기에 비해 상대적으로 멀게 혹은 깊게 인지하게 된다. 이는 '일반화된 타자'의 시각적 관점에서 대상을 어떻게 보이게 의도했는가에 대한 관계적 접근 방법이며, 사용자에게 지각된 환경지원성으로 심리적 태도와 행동을 유도하는 실행적 요소로 이해할 수 있다.
