본 연구는 보행자의 물리적 특성(크기, 모양, 자세 등)을 적용한 개선된 플로어 필드 모델(Floor field model; FFM)을 소개하고, 개선된 모델과 널리 알려진 다른 피난시뮬레이션 모델과의 비교를 통해 FFM의 한계점 파악 및 개선된 모델의 특징을 분석하고자 한다. FFM은 셀룰라 오토마타(Cellular automata)를 이용한 대표적 미시적 관점 보행 모델이지만 보행자의 크기, 모양, 자세 등의 물리적 특성을 세밀하게 반영하지 않는다. 이로 인해 보행자들 간의 충돌, 마찰 등의 현상을 모델링하기 어려우며 결과적으로 다른 모델들과 비교하였을 경우에 매우 짧은 대피 시간을 산출하고 있다. 본 연구는 물리적 현상을 반영할 수 있는 개선된 FFM을 제시하며, 개선된 모델과 기존 FFM, 시뮬렉스(Simulex), 패스파인더(Pathfinder) 등 다른 모델들과의 비교 실험을 수행하였다. 실험은 실제 캠퍼스 건물의 일부 공간을 대상으로 진행되었으며, 대피 인원의 변화에 따른 대피 양상의 비교와 각 출구별 대피 양상의 비교가 수행되었다. 이를 통해 FFM에서는 반영되지 않던 물리적 현상들이 개선된 모델에서는 상용 모델 수준으로 적용되는 점과 특히 시뮬렉스와 유사한 형태의 대피 양상을 보임을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 전산유체역학 모델을 이용하여 도시 재정비에 따른 신축 건물이 주변 대기 흐름에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 이를 위하여 지리정보시스템 자료로부터 추출한 건물 자료를 전산유체역학 모델의 입력 자료로 사용하였고 4가지 풍향 (서풍, 남풍, 동풍, 북풍)에 대한 수치 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 도시 재정비가 이루어지기 전에는 저층 건물이 밀집되었기 때문에 건물에 의한 마찰 효과가 증가하면서 건물 사이 공간의 풍속이 현저하게 감소하였다. 도시 재정비 계획에 따라 고층 건축물이 신축되고 밀집된 건물이 정비되면서 보행자 고도에서는 건물에 의한 마찰 효과가 감소하였다. 그리고 질량연속방정식을 만족시키기 위한 channeling 효과가 부분적으로 나타나면서 도시 재정비 지역의 풍속이 증가하였다. 상층에서는 고층 건물이 신축되면서 건물 사이에서 일어나는 channeling 효과에 의해 부분적으로 풍속이 증가하였다. 그러나 도시 재정비 지역의 풍하지역에서는 건물에 의해 형성되는 재순환 영역 (recirculation region)과 마찰 효과에 의해 넓은 지역에서 풍속이 현저하게 감소하였다.

일반적으로 화재 및 대피에 대한 안전성을 진단하기 위해 화재 시뮬레이터와 대피 시뮬레이터를 독립적으로 활용하고 있다. 이 방식은 화재 확산을 고려한 보행자의 움직임이 반영되어 있지 않기 때문에 높은 정확도의 안전성 진단을 기대하기 어렵다. 이에 본 연구에서는 화재 확산을 고려한 보행자의 움직임을 묘사할 수 있는 화재 대피 시뮬레이션 기법을 제안한다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 시뮬레이션 기법은 FDS(Fire Dynamics Simulator)의 화재 확산 데이터를 보행모델 FFM(Floor Field Model)에 반영하여, 보행자가 화재를 인지하고 이를 바탕으로 우회하여 안전한 경로로 대피하는 상황을 묘사한다. 연구 범위는 FDS와 FFM 간의 데이터 연동 및 화재 확산을 고려한 FFM 개발로 구성되며, 제안한 방법론의 실험은 대피 시뮬레이터 EgresSIM을 이용하여 진행하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과에서는 화재의 유무에 따른 출구별 대피인원 변화가 나타났으며, 이에 따른 출구별 대피시간 증감과 병목현상의 심화를 확인할 수 있었다.

Recently, the prediction of wind environment around a building using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique comes to be carried out at the practical design stage. However, there have been very few studies which examined the accuracy of CFD prediction of flow around a high-rise building including the velocity distribution at pedestrian level. The working group for CFD prediction of wind environment around building, which consists of researchers from several universities and private companies, was organized in the Architectural Institute of Japan (AIJ) considering such a background. At the first stage of the project, the working group planned to carry out the cross comparison of CFD results of flow around a high rise building by various numerical methods, in order to clarify the major factors which affect prediction accuracy. This paper presents the results of this comparison.

Deterioration of the outdoor thermal environment in urban areas has become worse and worse due to the urbanization and overpopulation, etc. Most of existing researches about thermal environment are focused on the indoor environment in which the radiation heat exchange is relatively constant. However, the outdoor thermal environment is changed with time passages, because the thermal environment is highly effected by solar radiation. Thus, to simulate the outdoor thermal environment with accuracy, the solar radiation calculation should be considered, and the radiation heat exchange between building surface and ground surface should be calculated. The purpose of this study is to develop the simulator that can be possible to evaluate the outdoor thermal environment and pedestrian thermal comfort. In this paper, a new method which is coupled with convective heat transfer simulation and radiative heat transfer simulation will be proposed. And the coupled simulation method will be described through case study for outdoor thermal environment. From the results of simulation, the coupled simulation proposed in this study can assess the outdoor thermal environment with accuracy.

In recent years, the quality of the outdoor thermal environment has come to be regarded as important as that of the indoor thermal environment. Since the outdoor thermal environment is composed of many elements and is affected by many factors, it is not easy to evaluate the impact of each factor separately. Hence, a comprehensive assessment method is required. In order to evaluate the pedestrian level comfort of an outdoor climate, it is necessary to investigate not only wind velocity but also various physical elements, such as temperature, moisture, radiation, etc. Prediction of wind and thermal environment for a large scale buildings is one of the most important targets for research. Wind and thermal change in a city area is a very complicated phenomenon affected by many physical processes. The purpose of this study is to develop a design plan for wind environment at a large Buildings. In this study, we analyze outdoor wind environment and thermal environment on buildings using the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) method. The arrangement of building models is an apartment in Jeonju. These prediction of wind and thermal environment for a large scale buildings is necessary in a plan before a building is built.

Floor Field Model(이하 FFM)은 보행자의 행동을 모델링하기 위한 Cellular Automata(이하 CA) 기반 보행모델이다. FFM에 대한 기존 연구들은 간단한 구조(하나의 방 혹은 방 안에 장애물이 있는 경우), 다소 복잡한 구조(여러 개의 방을 가지는 경우) 등에 대한 실험을 진행하였다. 다만, 실제 건물에 FFM을 적용하기 위해서는 다수의 방, 층, 계단, 출입문 등에 대한 정보들을 처리하기 위한 추가적인 방법론이 요구된다. 특히 이 과정에서 출입문에 대한 처리가 필요하다. 보행자들이 인지하는 출입문은 방의 출입문, 복도와 연결된 계단, 건물의 출입문 등 여러 종류가 있다. FFM에서는 Static Floor Field(이하 SFF)를 계산할 때, 출입문에 대한 정보가 필요하며, 앞서 언급한 출입문 중 어떤 것을 이용하여 SFF를 계산하는지에 따라 시뮬레이션 결과가 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 FFM에서 요구하는 데이터 구조에 따른 XML 형태의 건물 데이터 모델을 제시한다. 또한, 다수의 출입문을 처리하는 방법론을 정의한다. 이에 따라 건물 데이터 구축 및 대피시뮬레이터를 개발하였으며, 대학 캠퍼스 건물에 대해 시뮬레이션 실험을 수행하였다.

The use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is becoming an increasingly popular means to model wind flows in and around buildings. The first published application of CFD to both indoor and outdoor building airflows was in the 1970's. Since then, CFD usage has expanded to include different aspects of building design. Wind tunnel testing (WTT) on buildings for wind loads goes back as far as 1908. Gustave Eiffel built a pair of wind tunnels in 1908 and 1912. Using these he published wind loads on an aircraft hangar in 1919 as cited in Hoerner (1965 - page 74). The second of these wind tunnels is still in use today for tests including building design ($Damljanovi{\acute{c}}$, 2012). The Empire State Building was tested in 1933 in smooth flow - see Baskaran (1993). The World Trade Center Twin Towers in New York City were wind tunnel tested in the mid-sixties for both wind loads, at Colorado State University (CSU) and the [US] National Physical Laboratory (NPL), as well as pedestrian level winds (PLW) at the University of Western Ontario (UWO) - Baskaran (1993). Since then, the understanding of the planetary boundary layer, recognition of the structures of turbulent wakes, instrumentation, methodologies and analysis have been continuously refined. There is a drive to replace WTT with computational methods, with the rationale that CFD is quicker, less expensive and gives more information and control to the architects. However, there is little information available to building owners and architects on the limitations of CFD for flows around buildings and communities. Hence building owners, developers, engineers and architects are not aware of the risks they incur by using CFD for different studies, traditionally conducted using wind tunnels. This paper will explain what needs to happen for CFD to replace wind tunnels. Ultimately, we anticipate the reader will come to the same conclusion that we have drawn: both WTT and CFD will continue to play important roles in building and infrastructure design. The most pressing challenge for the design and engineering community is to understand the strengths and limitations of each tool so that they can leverage and exploit the benefits that each offers while adhering to our moral and professional obligation to hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public.

The process of designing Cheonggyecheon Entrance Plaza began with researching four keywords: plaza, restoration. modernity and icon. The outcome of the research was reinterpreted into and informed the design. An urban plaza must not only be a stage for civic life but should also be a portrait of the city to which it belongs. Many Korean plazas, however, are treated as if they are parks. Yeouido Park, which was originally a vast urban void, and Seoul Plaza, recently paved with grass, are good example. The strong 'green myth' can hinder socio-political activities. Cheonggyecheon cannot be said to have been 'restored', since it is still disconnected from its origin and upper streams, and the water is circulated by electricity. So it is better understood as an artificial urban waterfront, rather than an ecologically restored stream. This fact might diminish its ecological value, but not its recreational one. The entrance plaza therefore should reflect that the new stream brings back an 'experience', not only water itself. At the same time, the catch phrase of this restoration project was 'post-modern'. The demolished Cheonggye Expressway represents the 'economy drive' of the 1970s, so the newly opened Cheonggyecheon serves as a perfect counterpart to it. But modernity in Korea is the spirit that made many of the good things, not only its shortcomings, we have now. And from the philosophy of this restoration project, we can see that it is still an ongoing attitude in a way. Remnant of Cheonggye Expressway can evoke our nostalgia for the era. There are plenty of symbols in Seoul, both as architecture and objects. But none of them provide citizens with experience, other than the experience of looking at them. Cheonggyecheon Entrance Plaza is a good place to serve as an icon for a dynamic Seoul. From the research, the designer concluded that this plaza should commemorate the incomparable horizontal experience of Cheonggyecheon and the old expressway, amid the vertical metropolis. The Pedestrian Sculpture, which people can stroll on and look out over Cheonggyecheon, is to be made of steel cladding with a core structure and represents the dynamism of the stream, Seoul and contemporary Korea. The choice of material and the steel structure are also ways of creating the icon. The Water Plaza, the space underneath the ramp, will accommodate people and their urban activities, providing an opportunity to play with water. The Waterblades will be a device for the dramatic beginning of the stream, simultaneously camouflaging ugly openings in the outlets. The Wall of Archaeology is to be made with pre-fab resin blocks, translucent enough so that people can see through any archaeological findings of the site. The strong water-resistant character of resin makes the wall steady throughout the flood season as well. Cheonggyecheon restoration project is an effort to combine contemporary urban demand with the once-existing physicality by evoking our nostalgia for it. The project itself shows many socio-political issues of present-day Korea. The entrance plaza design thus is focused on suggesting an icon for the metropolis, simultaneously celebrating the stream itself. Within this space, people will be exposed to a unique experience that any 'green myth' cannot offer.
