The children's playgrounds have been installed almost from the beginning when the first apartment complex was built. The brightness of a playground has not been considered in the architectural plan. The site of the playground has been chosen based on availability without making a detailed review on its daylight environment. The purpose of this study is to provide the Sky Ratio Diagram for the evaluation of daylight environment at the children's playground in apartment complexes. the Sky Ratio Diagram has 100 points, each point has a value of equal to the sky ratio 1%. Through case studies, the Sky Ratio Diagram was verified whether it could be practically applied to the actual playgrounds. This research is meaningful in that it suggests a way to quantitatively evaluate the brightness of a playground. The Sky Ratio Diagram suggested in this study can be practically used when choosing a site for a playground within an apartment complex.

Scale model measurements should be conducted under an actual sky or in a simulated sky where conditions can be held constant. A number of successful attempts have been made to develop artificial sky domes with man-made sun emulators. With reference to formerly-developed examples, sky simulator facility has recently been activated in oder to provide desirable sky conditions for teaching and studies. The structure is a 6m-diameter dome and promises to set various condition for energy related and lighting research activities. The sky dome is also equipped a heliodon, the tilt table, to facilitate additive direct sun impact under clear skies. Shading studies, using scale models with the heliodon, reveal how a building's design blocks or permits light's passage to the interior; solar access studies, and tests of the reflection and transmittance characteristics of new daylighting technologies. The design and construction specification and the initial operating experience with a building configuration are reported.

In this study, the boundary non-linear analysis of the sky bridge subjected to walking load and running load is performed. The sky bridge is installed in the mid-story between two buildings and the walking load and running load induced by pedestrians are measured by load cell. LRB is modeled as a non-linear hysteresis model to accurately represent the behavior of LRB. For the serviceability evaluation of sky bridge, the acceleration responses of sky bridge are analyzed based on ISO 2631-2 and the velocity response are analyzed based on standards Bachmann &Amann. In serviceability evaluation of this sky bridge, the pedestrian can not perceive the vibration except for resonance running loads consequently. Therefore, it is concluded that this sky bridge haven't problem in the serviceability.

The hydroxyl radical (OH) sky emission lines arise from the Earth's mesosphere, and they serve as a major source of the sky background in the infrared. With IGRINS, the observed line strength show non-negligible variation even within a few minutes of time scale, making its subtraction difficult. Toward the aim better sky subtraction in the IGRINS pipeline, we present 1) improved identification of sky lines in H and K band and 2) improved method of subtracting sky background. Using the recent line list of Brooke et al. (2015), we have detected ~500 OH doublets from upper vibrational level between 2 and 9 and maximum upper J level of 25. In particular, we found that a significant fraction of unidentified lines reported by Oliva et al. (2015) are indeed OH lines resulting from transitions between different F levels. With the extended line identification, we present an improved method of sky subtraction. The method, based on the method of Noll et al. (2014), empirically accounts non-LTE level population of OH molecules.

Active suspension control for vehicles is developed to improve both ride comfort and steering stability which are in trade off relation. In this study, the modal sky-hook controller for 7 D. O. F. model is proposed to resolve the problems such as computaional power restriction and uncertainties in modeling of systems and environments. Modal sky-hook controller reduces the coupling between the modes to be controlled. The simulation result for ride comfort shows that the perform ance of the proposed controller matches that of the optimal controller. Systematic method of determining its gain is proposed. The model sky-hook controller shows the robustness to road irregularity and modeling error.

Daylight illuminance levels in a small space were calculated using the Superlite program under limited conditions of the turbidity and thickness of condensible water of atmosphere. Three sky conditions(clear sky with direct sun, clear sky with no direct sun, overcast sky with no direct sun) were used. The atmospheric conditions significantly impacted the illuminance levels under especially a clear sky with direct sun. The overcast sky with no direct sun provided no difference for the illuminance levels in the space. As the calculation points moved away from a window, reflected illuminance levels gradually increased but direct illuminance levels significantly decreased.

Spectrophotometry of the night sky over Mount Bohyun is presented for the nearly entire visible wavelengths of $3600{\~}$8600{\AA}$. The data was obtained under moonless clear sky in February 2004 with the 1.8-m telescope and the long slit spectrograph. The sky spectrum shows a number of strong emission lines originated from light pollution, especially due to high pressure sodium lamps. When compared to the night sky of Kitt Peak, our sky continuum is 1 to 2 magnitude brighter at all wavelengths, the worst being around the broad emission region near 6000${\AA}$. The night sky spectrum presented here with almost complete line identifications is a useful reference for arc-independent wavelength calibrations to check the gravity flexure of the spectrograph and the wavelength shift between FeNeArHe arc frames and science frames.

The influence of outdoor sky conditions on photosensor signals were examined to determine an appropriate index that is effectively used for optimum illuminance fluctuation when a daylight dimming system is used for a small office. Field measurements were conducted under various sky conditions. Results indicate that the outdoor global and vertical illuminance fluctuated within narrow ranges under clear and overcast sky conditions. The fluctuation of sky ratio under partly-cloudy sky caused wide ranges of illumnance fluctuation. A partially-shielded photosensor at backwall produced 56% of light output from fixtures controlled by a photosensor at ceiling. This implies that the photosensor at backwall does not always guarantee target illuminance due to the less output. The fluctuation of light output from fixtures were insignificant under clear and overcast sky. The fluctuation range of photosensor illuminance under partly-cloudy sky caused wide fluctuation ranges of light output. Regression result implies that the outdoor vertical illuminance was recommended for an effective index that is used for control of light output.

The cloud amount, one of the basic parameter in atmospheric observation, have been observed by naked eyes of observers, which is affected by the subjective view. In order to ensure reliable and objective observation, a new algorithm to retrieve cloud amount was constructed using true color images composed of red, green and blue (RGB). The true color image is obtained by the Skyview, an all-sky imager taking pictures of sky, at the Science Building of Yonsei University, Seoul for a year in 2006. The principle of distinguishing clear sky from cloudy sky lies in the fact that the spectral characteristics of light scattering is different for air molecules and cloud. The result of Skyview's algorithm showed about 77% agreement between the observed cloud amount and the calculated, for the error range, the difference between calculated and observed cloudiness, within ${\pm}2$. Seasonally, the best accuracy of about 83% was obtained within ${\pm}2$ range in summer when the cloud amounts are higher, thus better signal-to-noise ratio. Furthermore, as the sky turbidity increased, the error also increased because of increased scattering which can explain the large error in spring. The algorithm still need to be improved in classifying sky condition more systematically with other complimentary instruments to discriminate thin cloud from haze to reduce errors in detecting clouds.

Gravity waves have been searched for with a new all-sky camera system over Korean Peninsular. The all-sky camera consists of a 37mm/F4.5 Mamiya fisheye lens with a 180 dog field of view, interference filters and a 1024 by 1024 CCD camera. The all-sky camera has been tested near Daejeon city, and moved to Mt. Bohyun where the largest astronomical telescope is operated in Korea. A clear wave pattern was successfully detected in OH filter images over Mt. Bohyun on July 18, 2001, indicating that small scale coherent gravity waves perturbed OH airglow near the mesopause. Other wave features are since then observed with Na 589.8nm and OI 630.0nm filters. Since a Japanese all-sky camera network has already detected traveling ionospheric disturbances (TID) over the northeast-southwest range of Japanese islands, we hope our all-sky camera extends the coverage of the TID's observations to the west direction. We plan to operate our all-sky camera all year around to study seasonal variation of wave activities over the mid-latitude upper atmosphere.
