Objective: This study describes the change of operator performance in drastic change of illumination level, and proposes an alternative method to cope with it. Background: The control standard of illumination for nuclear power plants(NPPs) is based on the set of limit criteria for maintaining a specific illumination level. However, there is a possibility to cause human errors according to the psychological and physiological influences to operators in the situation of drastic change of illumination such as SBO(Station Black Out), so a basic study is necessary to review the current approach. Method: We assessed the visual fatigue, subjective work load and task performance according to the three illumination situations(Normal Illumination, Emergency Illumination, and Drastic Change of Illumination). Result: Research finding shows that there are not significant differences in task performance between normal illumination (1,000lx level) and emergency illumination (100lx level), only if beyond the dark adaptation limit. However, subjective work load on mental demand and visual fatigue show a potential challenge to visual performance in drastic change of illumination. Conclusion/Application: Several trials can complement this challenge in NPPs by applying 3-way communication, enhancing readability of procedures, and managing the visual factors affecting the operators' performance through a Visual Environment Management Program including visual health aspects, etc.

Daylighting has a great effect on people inside the room. It is also closely related to the lighting energy consumption. Daylight factor(DF) is a very important index for evaluation of the daylighting in overcast sky. The objective of this study is to verify the suitability of the Tregenza's Modified Split Flux formula for the calculation of the daylight factor. We compared the daylight factors calculated by two methods; one by a measurement with 1/5 scale model and the other by the Daysim program. We used variables for verification as window wall ratios(WWR) and angles of the sky visible. As a result, daylight factor calculated by Modified Split Flux is similar to the measurement when more daylight enters the inside. And error is significantly increased when the angle of the sky visible is $50^{\circ}$.

Conventional bridge inspection involves the physical positioning of an inspector by the hydraulic telescoping boom of a "snooper truck" thereby providing visual access to bridge components. The process is time consuming, hazardous, and may be affected by lighting conditions, Therefore, it is of great interest that an automated and/or teleoperated inspection robot be developed to replace the manual inspection procedure. This paper describes the advanced bridge inspection robot system under development and other related activities currently undergoing at the Bridge Inspection Robot Development Interface (BIRDI). BIRDI is a research consortium with its home in the Department of Civil and Environmental System Engineering at Hanyang University at Ansan. Its primary goal is to develop advanced robot systems for bridge inspection and monitoring for immediate field application and commercialization. The research program includes research areas such as advanced inspection robot and motion control system, sensing technologies for monitoring and assessment, and integrated system for bridge maintenance. The center embraces 12 institutions, which consist of 7 universities, 2 research institutes, and 3 private enterprises. Research projects are cross-disciplinary and include experts from structural engineering, mechanical engineering, electronic and control engineering.

The severe conditions such as rated voltage of 800kV, gas pressure of $5kg/cm^2$ and rated lighting impulse withstand voltage of 2400kV were adopted for the design of spacers in the 800kV GIS to give a sufficient design margin. The design criteria on the maximum electric field strength of the center conductor and the insulator surface were established by considering the insulator surface characteristics, electrode area and surface effects in the unequal electric field strength of the given gap. The design parameters such as inter/outer envelope degree, thickness, inter/outer inserts, triple junction gap were determined by calculating the electric field using FLUX-2D program package and by referring to the published papers. The mechanical stress analysis was conducted on the feasible model spacers that showed good electric field distributions to confirm the sufficient mechanical design margin. The 800kV spacer designed as described above is now in the process of manufacturing.

The present study has been conducted for evaluating and comparing the performance of the underfloor air distribution system(UFAD) and the ceiling based air distribution system(CBAD) under cooling condition. Simulations and experiments were carried out for verifying the model by TRNSYS program about UFAD and CBAD. The results of simulation for various conditions of thermal load are summarized as followings. UFAD had an advantage for making thermal comfort because of lower temperature of the floor surface. Moreover, UFAD showed lower fan power about 30~50% than CBAD under the same conditions of thermal load. The energy saving rates of UFAD were increased to 17.7% in proportion to the thermal load on unoccupied zone(lighting). Ultimately, additional investigations should be done for analyzing optimized operating conditions of UFAD with considering the thermal performance of building envelop and the thermal load.
