    In this research, we carried out psychological scale measurements of "ease of hearing" in reverberant sound fields with differing echo-diagram response properties, such as changes in the reverberation time and the presence of discreet echoes in the reverberation attenuation process, as well as STI measurements and tri-syllable articulation tests varying speech rates between four patterns and conducted comparative examinations of the effect of echoes and reverberation on speech intelligibility from the correspondence relationships of the outcome of these tests. As a result, in regard to the evaluation of tri-syllable articulation with varying speech rates, we recognized a trend in which the effect on the length of reverberation, the presence of discreet echoes or other changes in the time structure could be evaluated as the differences in the test results. Meanwhile, in regard to STI, we confirmed that, in some cases, differences in "ease of hearing" cannot be reflected as evaluation results in sound fields with long reverberation time or in sound fields affected by directional discreet echoes.

    The purpose of this research is to evaluate residential floors focusing on the walking feeling and to clarify the relationship with floor impact sound insulation and other physical properties. We conducted walking sensation evaluation tests on typical floor covering structures currently being used as residential floors and, calculating the psychological scale component values for floor hardness, walking ease, sensation of flexure, sensation of weight, preferability as a floor and other evaluation items, clarified changes in the values of the walking feeling of the subjects by age group due to changes in the floor covering structure. Furthermore, we developed a walking impact apparatus capable of accurately reproducing impact force properties of walking and examined the correspondence between the dynamic physical values of the floor obtained by using the apparatus and the psychological values obtained through the sensation evaluation tests. We thereupon identified the dynamic displacement values and dynamic spring constant values of the floor that provided the most favorable evaluation in terms of walking feeling.

    We have studied thermal environment in real-scale atrium. The heat budget of the room air and each surface of the indoor walls are examined from the measured temperature and so on. The room temperature is analyzed with the macro model. The following conclusion are obtained. (1) The error of total heat budged was about 5 percent of the total solar incident, so that the data obtained here are very effective to verify the mathematical analysis. (2) The heat gain from the structural frames is a very important factor for designing the atrium's indoor environment.

    Ventilation method in ventilated 30° pitched-roofs are examined to prevent icicle and ice dams forming on the inclined roof of insulated and airtight house. Simulation code that can be approximated measurement temperatures of the experimental house were developed, and was analyzed temperature of ventilating roofs with different insulation thickness and different ventilation method, under the several house location. From the simulation results, the effectiveness of the ridge opening is obvious, and the high insulation thickness can reduce ventilation rate. It also made clear that the ventilation rate of ventilating attic space is rather small for preventing icing at eaves, it especially means normalized opening at eaves or ridge on top should be made bigger anyhow from the architectural point of view.

    This paper describes a simple method to determine a window size and the shape of a room space for daylighting. To develop the method, we first derived a formula that relates the average daylight illuminance on the work plane to total interior surface area and the window area. In that course, the coefficient of daylight utilization (CDU), which corresponds to the coefficient of utilization appeared in the Lumen Method for electric lighting, was derived. The value of CDU was tabulated for easy use at planning stage. Using the diagram that we made, annual daylight illuminance near a window can be estimated. A couple of case studies was performed using the proposed method. The results were reasonable so that the determination of a window size and the shape of a room space for daylighting by the proposed method is applicable to architectural environmental planning.

    This paper describes a method to calculate "natural exergies" associated with solar radiation, effective radiation, evaporation of water and underground warm and cool storage. We first examined the variable types of so-called natural energy, which is a technical term widely used in the field of building environmental science, and then showed that they can be defined by the concept of exergy. We call this "natural exergy". The values of any natural exergies are positive. For example, stored exergy under the ground as a quantity of state is positive without exception. We calculated the annual amounts of natural exergies in Tokyo, and we tabulated the results as a chart that can be used to evaluate the regional climatic situation from the view point of exergy.

    The purpose of the study is to discuss the feasibility of a passive stack ventilation system using the beam space of a house as an air distribution chamber. The results of the calculation and the measured air flow rates in a test house are as follows 1) The proposed system requires less airtigthness than a direct air supply system using wall inlets. Designing stacks is easy in the proposed system because the height of the neutral zone is not influenced by the degree of airtightness. 2) In airtight houses, the distribution of fresh air and the ventilation routes can be well-designed using the beam space. The ventilation rate increased with the difference between the indoor temperature and the outdoor temperature. 3) In houses using a space heating system, the passive stack ventilation system fulfills the ventilation requirement during 90% of the heating season. And the ratio of the total ventilation volume to the ventilation requirement is 70%.

    Turbulent flow around a surface-mounted cube was analyzed by DSM (Differential Stress Model). This paper reports on the results of seven cases of DSM computations, using four different models for Φ_<ij>, two different models for Φ^ω_<ij> and two different models for D_<ij>. The accuracy of these computations was examined by comparing them with the results of wind tunnel experiment and LES. The following matters are clarified. The Craft and Launder (CL) model for Φ^ω_<ij(2)> improves the accuracy for predicting the k value in the area near the upwind corner of cube in comparison with the case in which Φ^ω_<ij(2)> is not included. The Mellor-Herring (MH) model for D_<ij> reproduces anisotropy of <u_i'u_j'> better than does the Daly-Harlow (DH) model.

    An algorithm based on the artificial compressibility method is tested for the computation of separating flow around a body. A third-order upwind differencing scheme is used to compute convective terms and a fourth-order damping term is added to the pres-sure equation to avoid unphysical oscillations. The optimal parameter values are examined through a series of two-dimensional laminar flow computations over a circular cylinder. The results indicate the optimal value for the artificial compressibility parame-ter can be decided with the physical time step size. Then three dimensional flow computations around a square cylinder at the Reynolds number 22,000 are presented and the results are compared with experimental and other computational results. Though present computations are laminar, the computed results show better agreement with the experimental data.

    In this paper the authors investigated the fundamental data which were necessary for estimation of the optimum number of the fixtures in a lavatory of the single-purpose soccer stadium. The sanitary fixture usage of the audience of a pro-soccer game at a stadium-K were surveyed actually by means of the electric methods. The results are as follows. The number of men was same to female in audience. The waiting line of lavatory during the intermission had been left after the second half of the game had started, therefore some of audience had been disturbed to watch the game. Lack of the sanitary fixture in the female lavatory had caused waiting line during this investigation period. But the occupated period on each fixture was similar to the result of the previous investigation.

    Significant air temperature rising in urban areas is well recognized as so-called Heat Island phenomenon in a global scale. It is qualitatively grasped that increase of anthropologic heat and alternation of land usage are regarded as its main reasons. To analyze quantitatively on factors of the significant air temperature rising, a predicting methodology combined with simultaneous solution for Architecture-Urban-Soil system was proposed. In the presented procedure, authors proposed simplified numerical calculation method for evaporation rate from soil was considered with building air conditioning load calculation and 1-dimensional heat balance model for an urban atmosphere. Using realistic input data assumed a typical urban area during summer season, a fundamental solution was obtained and an effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed.

    In Japan, intermittent air-conditioning systems predominate, and it is thought that while designs need to take into account the thermal storage load for heating, the thermal storage load for cooling can be ignored because the effect is small. In this study, simulations were conducted on thermal storage load for cooling, taking into account the thermal sensation distribution. It was clearly established that a simulation can be used to evaluate the relationship between thermal comfort and thermal storage load for cooling, and that six times more energy was required at the start-up time on Monday than for continuous air-conditioning.

    The purpose of this paper is to analyze the principles of space formation of Madurese houses, house compounds and villages. In Indonesia, many settlements of Proto-Malay tribes like Batak, Toraja are formed as parallel disposition pattern. Madurese settlements also follow the same pattern. Compared to the settlements of other tribes, Madurese settlements are significant as a prototype because they realize that pattern in the smallest scale. It is also pointed out that Javanese and Balinese settlements in pre-Hindu period followed the same pattern. The analysis on Madurese settlements might reveal the basic rules of space formation of the settlements in Indonesia. This paper firstly tries to grasp the settlement patterns in rural regions in Madura Island. After looking at all the regions in Madura Island, Sanggra Agung is chosen to be surveyed more specifically. Judging from the result of the survey, it is concluded that Islamic influence has played an important role to keep indigenous space formation system of Madurese settlements particularly in western Madura.

    The purpose of this study is to introduce a new "degree of openness" concept as a comprehensive index for evaluation of space of a nursery school environment, so that the environmental space of a nursery school most conducive to the development of mind and body of children may be more fully comprehended. Firstly, a survey, undertaken at nursery schools in the cities of Nagasaki and Fukuoka, is summarized regarding the behavior of children when they try to have access from a classroom to a garden. The results of the survey indicate the importance of, among others, the size of a garden, which enables children to play as freely as possible, and the windows and exits of a classroom that may entice children from a classroom to a garden. It is to be shown, then, that the graduated degrees of "openness of access" from a classroom to a corridor and then to a garden has an important bearing on the development of exploratory behavior of children. It is finally shown that an analysis made by the regression analysis method of the principal components will certify the effectiveness of the "degree of openness" concept.

    This study is to extract "landschaft", and to grasp and type their characters with the approach of landscape ecology. The objective area is the western part of Saitama prefecture. We set up the three dimensional indicator used land-use and relative height in national land-use digital information and classified the areas of the homogeneous landscape. Furthermore, we make clear the relation between the indicators about population, socio-economy and space, and "landschaft". As a result, it is grouped into 7 types of "landschaft". These "landschaft" cover the rural communities as micro planning units. On the other hand, they divide municipalities as comprehensive planning units. Moreover, "landschaft" is formed by the spatial character of country side, and the problems of planning for each "landschaft" should arise from these characters.

    The purposes here are to conclude our researches about urbanizing process of privately owned land in readjusted area of Tsukuba New Town for these 22 years, and to consider the contributing factors of this trend. The movement of the urbanization there has been quite stable. They may be divided into three stages: 1) The first is stable urbanizing process before EXPO '85; 2) The second is rapid urbanization in the period of EXPO '85 and stagnation after that; 3) The third is ascending period with the actualization of urban potential after 1990. The growth and the completion of the city center was the main factor of these trends. EXPO '85 contributed to the maturity of the city center, and facilitated the urbanizing process later on.

    The purpose of this study is to show the urban transition of Tokyo from the point of view of the property ownership system of 1912. An early study done by Yoshojiro Takeuchi entitled "The Large-scale Landlord in Tokyo" which appeared in the Heimin Newspaper in 1907 analyses the property ownership system of Tokyo. The present study uses Takeuchi's first study as a guideline for research and comparison purposes. The aim here is to clarify the divisions of real estate in Tokyo and, by studying the impact of various property ownership systems, present guidelines for future urban development strategies. In this study, the author divided property ownership types into five categories. These categories are based on the ratio of the ownership of one's own residence to the ownership of other(s) properties, then divided into the different social classes. The discovery is that the former feudal lords of the Meiji Era still had huge land holdings, yet there was no concept of urban structure or city planning, thereby creating a congested city form.

    This paper pays due attention to the fact that the marble tiles of the Parthenon were laid directly on wooden rafters, verifies the shape and dimensions of the tiles according to the investigation result of preceding researches, and tests also the transmission coefficient of the marbles from Naxos, Paros and Penteli which are the sources of the roof tile materials in all important Greek temples. On the basis of the data, the authors conducted an experiment to reproduce the illuminance distribution within the cella using a model. As a result, they reached the conclusion that the daylight illuminance at floor level in the cella was about 7 lx at the very least; accordingly there is the possibility that the portion enclosed with colonnades had no ceiling.

    Through twenty two of the poems in "The collection of Myoue's poems", we interpret the meaning of Myoue's dwelling place for buddhistic practices in Kozanji-temple. "Kekuden (Myoue's pavilion where he sat for religious meditation)" was the most important place in his dwelling. The meaning of the place was made clear by naming or by making poems on the mood/atmosphere (Stimmung) of the place. In this place Myoue could see "the truth on two kinds of emptiness", and realize how one should think about one's dwelling place in the true meaning.

    Mies's swan song, the New National Gallery(1962-67)is so simple as if to symbolize his architecture. But the proportions of the New National Gallery are copied from the privileged set of proportions of his earlier Bacardi Office Building project(1957-6O). The privileged set of proportions is derived from the four factors : the accident that the Bacardi was designed earlier, the rational modular system, Mies's own sense of proportion, and the agreement with Golden Ratio and Dynamic Rectangle. It is very interesting that Golden Ratio and Dynamic Rectangle are found in the proportion of the elevation of Mies's swan song.

    This research is a trial to make the concept of the 'contextualism', which has been pursued widely in America during the last three decades, clear. This paper reexamines the transition of the concept of 'context' in the American architectural thought from 1960 to early 1970's. Until the mid-1960's, the word 'context' became used at the level of physical environment. At that time, the concept of the 'contextualism' arose out of seeing cities as both buildings and spaces; it was conceived as a set of strat-egies for building in cities and it proposed the continuity between adjacent buildings. Although after the mid-1960's, when many critical writings about modernism were published, the word 'context' became used at the level of semantics of environment gradually.
