  • There has been many improvements on our nation's public restroom, however, it was focused on interior decoration and installing convenience supplies. The simplicity of materials is another aspect. Besides, the lack of harmony with the surrounding scenery is also a problem. The new concept of public restroom that this study suggests is; a creation of a lively space to stimulate the senses of human and a cultural space that people can rest, and eventually improving the quality of life, being the landmark of streets and parks by avoiding the negative image.

  • The noise inside a naval vessel is very important in considering the need for hearing protection, improving the working environment and maintaining good communications for crews living on board a naval vessel. The indoor noise of a ship usually is specified by the A-weighted sound pressure level, but other evaluating parameters are required to reflect human senses more effectively. This paper uses additional noise indices related to room acoustics, such as NR(noise rating), NC(noise criterion), RC(room criterion), PSIL(preferred speech interference level) and loudness level to evaluate the noise inside cabins on a naval vessel. Using these psychological noise indices, allowable limit of noise level in cabins is suggested through psycho-acoustic evaluation for the noise in cabins.

  • The aim of the paper is to verify the hypothesis that 'Deep Contextualism can be applied to architecture,' developed through Stephan Pepper's Contextualism. This hypothesis is verified by Peter Zumthor's architectures. 'Deep Contextualism' has 'the third context' between human and natural context. The third so-called "ready-to-hand" is reactivated according to contingency and creativity in Being, 'Being' is continuously revitalized. It means that quality in 'the third context, or a sense of ready-to-hand is creatively and unceasingly transformed into a new texture by creativity and contingency in Being. Also Zumthor and Heidegger agrees to a sense of ready-to-hand. Through creativity and contingency in Being his architecture widens and deepens. Zumthor's atmosphere is world 4, and his architecture is world 3 which is an embodiment of world 4 or his air.

  • A method of multimedia information data acquisition based on fuzzy rules is proposed, where the multimedia means the five senses of a human being. Observed information is characterized by VAGOT(visual, acoustic, gustatory, olfactory and tactile) time series data and the goal is to extract an appropriate subset of the VAGOT data based on a given instruction. Fuzzy rules based on visual and acoustic information are used to identify the appropriate time interval on the fireworks multimedia information.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate on Humint, one of the intelligence activity conducted by police officer to prevent the possibility of crime in advance and to handle crime in short time. Also, this study aims to identify how interpersonal relationship of police influences Humint acquisition in order to find out the influence of Humint on actual policy activity. For completion, this study conducted survey on current police officer and developed the study based on these data. Humint refers to information acquired by contact between people and to information acquired by intangible contact. Humint, the intangible information, is delivered fast and identifies the other's hidden intention. Humint also approaches inaccessible information and has strength of acquiring information based on five senses instead of using machine. Humint plays vital role in human relations. The investigation on the influence of level, trust, and range of human relations on Humint application demonstrated that people with wide human relations applied Humint effectively on identifying trend. Also, people with wide range of human relations used Humint effectively when utilizing information to handle the crime.

  • The development of modern industry and the production of new materials of architecture have recognized as an important aspect. This study intended to discuss about the meaning of main elements of the architecture materials, its implications for properties, and, highlighted meaning of the properties of modern interior design. The purpose of this study is to analyze the case studies of Place and Physical materials of synaesthesia of modern architecture as well as modern architecture is not only concentrated in the visual aspect but also the larger ramifications of sensory. Synesthesia in architectural space can be called experiential existence that built in the space of human perception and based on the human emotion that targeted by physical architectural space. Accordingly, these case studies are to consider about how the materials being passed by any effect in a modern interior space presented, In order to find the essential meaning in modern interior space, this studies focused on Swiss architect Peter Zumthor's cases. Following analyze of Peter Zumthor's place of architectural space and materials, this study structured by the six kinds of synesthesia characters. First, time and remember to infer changes, Second, traditional and regional ingredients involve the substitution of one empirical space, Third, non-materiality through the neutralization, Fourth, auditory memory through the embodiment of everydayness, Fifth, trail through the sense of smell for the presence, Sixth, the relationship of natural and industrial products. Peter Zumthor's characteristics of these works are result of factors on the synesthetic relationship with the human response to architecture, the five senses, memories, experiences, and temperature. Also it is a synesthetic result of all human emotion to clarify of the architecture materials and non-material mediums by which light by a compound.

  • Objective: Animal-free scaffolds have emerged as a potential foundation for consistent, chemically defined, and low-cost materials. Because of its good potential for high biocompatibility with reproductive tissues and well-characterized scaffold design, we investigated whether polyglycolic acid (PGA) could be used as an animal-free scaffold instead of natural fibrin-agarose, which has been used successfully for three-dimensional human endometrial cell culture. Methods: Isolated primary endometrial cells was cultured on fibrin-agarose and PGA polymers and evaluated various design parameters, such as scaffold porosity and mean fiber diameter. Cytotoxicity, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and immunostaining experiments were conducted to examine cell activity on fabricated scaffolds. Results: The MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay and SEM results showed that endometrial cells grew and proliferated on both scaffolds. Immunostaining showed cytokeratin and vimentin expression in seeded cells after 7 days of culture. On both scaffolds, an epithelial arrangement of cultured cells was found on the top layer and stromal arrangement matrix on the bottom layer of the scaffolds. Therefore, fibrin-agarose and PGA scaffolds successfully mimicked the human endometrium in a way suitable for in vitro analysis. Conclusion: Both fibrin-agarose and PGA scaffolds could be used to simulate endometrial structures. However, because of environmental and ethical concerns and the low cost of synthetic polymers, we recommend using PGA as a synthetic polymer for scaffolding in research instead of natural biomaterials.

  • This is an attempt to reflect on humanity in the post-human era. Here, I think that the question of future human beings should be critically raised in the following two meanings. First, can post-humans recover the body, emotions, nature and women's voices suppressed by modern enlightened subjects? Second, can post-humans preserve humanity by fighting inhumanity without presupposing human essence or immutable foundations? In answer to these questions, I will have a dialogue with M. Heidegger(1889-1976), W. Benjamin(1892-1940), Th. W Adorno(1903-1969). The three philosophers looked at the inhuman world situation brought about by modern subjects and technology, and found the possibility of new human beings. The three philosophers' new human image are the three possible models of post-humanism, 'a human being as ek-sistence' (Heidegger, Chapter 2), 'the man who restored the similarity with the other through innervation' (Benjamin, Chapter 3), 'A human being who negates the inhuman society' (Adorno, Chapter 4), and examines the current status of each. In conclusion, as long as the fourth industrial revolution is developed as a system of digital capitalism that controls the world as a whole from human senses, impulses, and unconsciousness, the necessity of the post-human era is aesthetic authenticity.
