The area to be surveyed is the three-seat of Myeon office in Hwasun-gun, Jeollanam-do, where population is declining. Satisfaction with the use of local residents of rural central areas providing life services in the back area was identified, focusing on sustainable development and the compact cities. Based on the results of the study, the recommendations are as follows. First, the local spaces to be surveyed need a shift to a walk-centered choice and social structure, not a must-oriented, activity-centric structure. This not only improves the neighborhood of rural areas, but also increases the frequency of pedestrian exchange and helps keep the community afloat. Second, it could enhance the convenience of residents by reviving stocks in existing commercial areas and integrating public services. Finally, it has the effect of taking care of the socially disadvantaged and immigrants in terms of space welfare, and securing jobs through locally customized community businesses.

Why do some countries walk on the right and others on the left? People have a dominant hand which leads to a natural tendency to favor one side of the road or another depending on the means of transportation being used. The primary objective of this study was to investigate the stereotype of Korean regarding preferred walking direction in encountering various facilities and provide the appropriate information to traffic policy makers. Six hundred Korean male and female subjects aging from 12 to 83 were selected to investigate the various statistics about their preferred walking direction and their employment characteristics on walking diverse facilities. The walking directions of eleven different facilities were asked along with other relative subjects' characteristics(e.g., age, gender, hand and foot dominance) to determine the relationship among these obtained data. The descriptive statistics showed that 73.7% and 26.3% were preferred walking right and left direction respectively. Moreover, various statistical analysis revealed that general tendency of walking direction was varied by hand and foot dominances. There were strong tendency that right-handed people prefer walking right side of the road and vise versa, hence this should be considered in setting up traffic policies. As a concluding remark, it is better to design traffic policies and regulations in the way that peoples' preference and expectation.

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.

최근에 들어 보도나 산책로, 공원 등에 주로 사용되었던 보도블록 및 투수콘크리트 대신 합성고무칩(EPDM Chip)을 사용한 탄성포장이 보행시 충격흡수와 다양한 칼라와 디자인을 연출할 수 있어 사용이 증가되고 있다. 그러나, 자외선에 노출시 합성고무칩의 탄성력, 내구성 등이 저하되고, 황변현상으로 다양한 색상에 의한 경관포장의 기능이 저하되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 자외선에 노출 시 탄성포장의 주재료인 합성고무칩과 폴리우레탄수지의 색변화를 분석하기 위해 자외선 촉진 내후성 실험을 수행하였다. 그리고 색차계를 이용하여 색공간의 색 수치좌표를 이용하는 방법으로 색차를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 실험결과 기존에 주로 사용되는 BL 폴리우레탄수지의 색변화가 합성고무칩보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 BC 폴리우레탄수지의 총색차 ${\Delta}E$가 촉진재령 14일에서 3.162로 BL 폴리우레탄수지의 20.639에 비해 6배 정도 자외선에 대한 색변화 저항성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 합성고무칩을 사용하는 탄성포장에서 폴리머 제조시 이소시아네이트를 HMDI로 사용하여 체인형 분자구조를 갖도록 제조된 BC 폴리우레탄수지를 바인더로 사용하는 것이 자외선에 의한 색변화를 억제하는데 매우 효율적인 방법으로 나타났다.

Walkability is an indicator of how much pedestrians are willing to walk and how well a walking environment is created. As walking can promote pedestrians' mental and physical health, there has been increasing focus on improving walkability in different ways. Thus, plenty of research has been undertaken to measure walkability. When measuring walkability, there are many objective and subjective variables. Subjective variables include a feeling of safety, pleasure, or comfort, which can significantly affect perceived walkability. However, these subjective factors are difficult to measure by making the walkability index more reliant on objective and physical factors. Because many subjective variables are associated with human emotional states, understanding pedestrians' emotional states provides an opportunity to measure the subjective walkability variables more quantitatively. Pedestrians' emotions can be examined through surveys, but there are social and economic difficulties involved when conducting surveys. Recently, an increasing number of studies have employed physiological data to measure pedestrians' stress responses when navigating unpleasant environmental barriers on their walking paths. However, studies investigating the emotional states of pedestrians in the walking environment, including assessing their positive emotions felt, such as pleasure, have rarely been conducted. Using wearable devices, this study examined the various emotional states of pedestrians affected by the walking environment. Specifically, this study aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of monitoring biometric data, such as electrodermal activity (EDA) and heart rate variability (HRV), using wearable devices as an indicator of pedestrians' emotional states-both pleasant-unpleasant and aroused-relaxed states. To this end, various walking environments with different characteristics were set up to collect and analyze the pedestrians' biometric data. Subsequently, the subjects wearing the wearable devices were allowed to walk on the experimental paths as usual. After the experiment, the valence (i.e., pleasant or unpleasant) and arousal (i.e., activated or relaxed) scale of the pedestrians was identified through a bipolar dimension survey. The survey results were compared with many potentially relevant EDA and HRV signal features. The research results revealed the potential for physiological responses to indicate the pedestrians' emotional states, but further investigation is warranted. The research results were expected to provide a method to measure the subjective factors of walkability by measuring emotions and monitoring pedestrians' positive or negative feelings when walking to improve the walking environment. However, due to the lack of samples and other internal and external factors influencing emotions (which need to be studied further), it cannot be comprehensively concluded that the pedestrians' emotional states were affected by the walking environment.

Owing to our rapidly aging society, accessibility evaluation to enhance the ease and safety of access to indoor and outdoor environments for the elderly and disabled is increasing in importance. Accessibility must be assessed not only from the general standard aspect but also in terms of physical and cognitive friendliness for users of different ages, genders, and abilities. Meanwhile, human behavior simulation has been progressing in the areas of crowd behavior analysis and emergency evacuation planning. However, in human behavior simulation, environment models represent only "as-planned" situations. In addition, a pedestrian model cannot generate the detailed articulated movements of various people of different ages and genders in the simulation. Therefore, the final goal of this research was to develop a virtual accessibility evaluation by combining realistic human behavior simulation using a digital human model (DHM) with "as-is" environment models. To achieve this goal, we developed an algorithm for generating human-like DHM walking motions, adapting its strides, turning angles, and footprints to laser-scanned 3D as-is environments including slopes and stairs. The DHM motion was generated based only on a motion-capture (MoCap) data for flat walking. Our implementation constructed as-is 3D environment models from laser-scanned point clouds of real environments and enabled a DHM to walk autonomously in various environment models. The difference in joint angles between the DHM and MoCap data was evaluated. Demonstrations of our environment modeling and walking simulation in indoor and outdoor environments including corridors, slopes, and stairs are illustrated in this study.
