The purpose of this paper is to research Gunnar Asplund's Woodland Chapel (1918-20) in terms of the revernacularization of classicism and to investigate into the matter of the constructional logic. The term 'revernacularization of classicism' was used by Alan Colquhoun to explain the process to return to the pure sources of classical architecture, and the case of a successful fusion of classicism and vernacular traditions was suggested by Demetri Porphyrios through Scandinavian Doricist sensibility in the early 20th century. Porphyrios's classicism, not as style but as sensibility, is premised on a constructional logic of vernacular, and is to achieve an aesthetic quality by its mythical elaboration. Woodland Chapel, a representative of the Scandinavian Doricism according to him, illustrates characteristics of the revernacularized classicism as in the fact that it thickly displays vernacular images at the same time as relying on classicism; in the return to primitive simplicity; and in the mythopoeic power. However, the constructional logic of this building was obscured in the capital of the portico columns, the interior dome, and the whole structure of the roof. Confronting this paradox, we have to remember that although Porphyrios emphasized the constructional logic he opened an aesthetic exit of the mythical elaboration, which is in accord with the concept of the tectonic as the poetics of construction. Woodland Chapel assumes atectonic features but is never anti-tectonic. Asplund intensified a poetic effect by setting the myth over construction in the chapel, and so it can be seen as a key example of the revernacularized classicism with the Doricist sensibility.

HVDC Light는 300MW에 이르는 전력을 가지고 있는 아불 성형된 DC Cable과 Voltage Source 컨버터에 기반을 둔 가장 최근의 HVDC 기술이다. HVDC Light 컨버터는 IGBT(Insulated Gate bi-polar Transistor)와 유효전력과 무효전력 사이의 고속 컨트롤을 위한 PWM(펄스 폭 변조)의 기능을 가지고 있다. HVDC Light 케이블은 압출 성형된 폴리머의 절연을 가진 케이블이며 직류 전압을 위해 특별히 개조되었다. 전력 범위 내에서 HVDC Light 컨버터와 케이블은 지중 또는 해저 송전 등에서도 송전전력을 위해 훌륭하게 조합될 수 있었다. 본 원고는 실제의 케이스로부터 얻은 경험지식으로, HVDC Light 기술의 조합을 사용해 해결된 문제점을 소개하고, HVDC Light의 장점을 설명하였다.
