It is the purpose of this study to propose improvement options and guidance methods for public design around elementary schools from the perspective of child friendly cities. The study first takes the Convention on the Rights of the Child as a benchmark, and integrates relevant United Nations documents on child friendly cities and those on child friendly cities in Shenzhen to derive five principles of public design around child friendly schools, namely, safe environment, protective measures, pedestrian friendly environment, independent environment for going out, convenient and fun environment. Subsequently, this study investigates the public design of 25 elementary schools in Futian District, Shenzhen, China, evaluates the quality level of public design according to the five principles, and points out the problems that exist in public design with lower quality level. Furthermore, in response to the existing problems of public design around elementary schools in Shenzhen, this study improves them from three aspects: public space, public facilities and public media design. More importantly, the design reinforces the safety and child protection of the environment, facilitates children's walking and independent going out, and provides a convenient and fun design that meets the physical and psychological needs of children, designed to be child-friendly. Not only does this design provide guidance for the construction of the environment around the elementary school in Shenzhen, but also provides guidelines for the construction of a child-friendly city in Shenzhen.

In this paper, a unified design environment is developed for the optimization of electric machines based on continuum sensitivity. For electromagnetic (EM) system analysis, COMSOL scripting environment is used. Optimization module is developed by MATLAB programming, which can be combined with COMSOL script commands. The modules are combined into one MATLAB project, and iteration process necessary for the optimization of EM system can be performed efficiently. During the design process, visual feedback of the current design status is given to the designer. In addition, the B-Spline parametrization of the nodal points is implemented to obtain smooth boundary of the device. The developed software is applied to the problem of finding uniform flux density distribution at the air gap of an electromagnet to verify its feasibility and effectiveness.

Kindergarten is the first educational experience of toddlers, where they experience living in a group environment. Carefully designed, it is intended to provide an environment for nurturing the systematic growth and development of youngsters. Through effective stimulation, young children display their abilities as they independently learn in the controlled setting of Kindergarten. This study advocates the support of educational activities through the use of systematic and scientific architectural design in order to achieve the challenging goals and results desired of Kindergarten education. Upon determining the current state of Kindergarten architectural design, I have sought to apply innovative architectural concepts which can be used to design desirable learning environment for Kindergarten aged children. In calculation of area, the average gross building area is minimum $2.3m^{2}/p$ and optimum $2.5m^{2}/p$. The area of classroom is optimum $6.8m^{2}/p$.

This study deals with the expressive characteristics of Installation Art and their applicability to environmental design, and as such, aims to specify a artistic methods from the contemporary art. What Installation Art is search of in their works is "the state of relationships" which is "to replace the concept of form with that of structure, and the concept of space with that of the environment" that is, the terms of relations in the overall environment of time and space. Installation Art essentially relies on a multiplicity of forms and attitudes leading to projects which positively make use of "spatial-temporal process" to reaffirm and "problematise" their open-endedness manifest in complex contextuality and shifting temporality. This study presents a new interpretation of spatial-temporal dimension, site-specificity, and intermedia art that we find in Installation Art and tries to combine that new artistic insight a with environmental design to provide a basis for integrated art. This study places a great emphasis on the interdisciplinary approaches to the environment we inhabit, which I hope will contribute to generating a greater number of creative possibilities for environmental design.

In this paper, the concept of design for environment (DFE) was introduced to mechanical design and manufacturing of cellular phone case. A new evaluation method integrated in existing product manufacturing process was developed and applied to two different types of cellular phone cases: foldable type and slider type. The evaluation results suggested that scores for 'refurbishments & recycle' criterion were relatively low for their cases. This evaluation method may assist designers to draw a checklist of the product's weak points from the perspective of DFE. From the checklist, the designers can consider possible improvements in future design.
