Metal and membranous materials are often used for roofing of such large buildings as sport stadiums and exhibition halls. In such cases, noise radiated from roofs excited by rainfall often causes serious acoustic problems. In order to investigate the sound radiation characteristics of such kinds of roof construction, an artificial rainfall equipment was firstly constructed to simulate natural rainfall condition, and the sound radiation characteristics of various kinds of lightweight roof have been investigated by sound power measurement. In this paper (part 1), the way of simulating natural rainfall and the charcteristics of the artificial rainfall equipment are described.

In this paper we describe an experimental study of a method to determine force transmission characteristics on railroads and vibration response for exciting force by train running, thus establishing a method to predict the influence of solid-borne sound produced from train tracks over buildings built on the track bed. Consequently, the force transmission characteristics on a directly connected track bed, ballast bed, and vibration isolating bed have been definitely shown. Further, it is known that the vibration response of the track bed by train running can be precisely determined by computing the vibration acceleration energy due to exciting force of a single wheel of the car multiplied by the number of one side wheels of all the cars.

In this study we examined how to improve performance in insulation of floor impact sound of directly glued wood flooring while taking walking feeling into consideration, and carried out sensation experiments oh walking feeling. The following are the main conclusions of the study. (1) We succeeded in development of wood flooring materials of a double-layer construction in section, that is, the upper construction (finishing material + cushion material) to reduce exciting force and the lower construction (plywood + cushion material) consisting of a rather thick plywood layer to improve the performance in insulation of lightweight floor impact sound, thus maintaining the floor hardness for walking. (2) It has been proved that for the floor elasticity for a man to walk dynamic values much correspond with sensation quantity than static ones do. The walking feeling given the highest evaluation was a flooring having a dynamic displacement of 0.6 〜 1.0mm to the local excitation by the heavyweight impact source having a peak impact force 1000N with duration of 22ms.

A novel OPTIMAL scheme based on the second-order interpolation tecnique is proposed for highly accurate and non-oscillatory simulation of convection. The effectiveness of this scheme is demonstrated through applications of several scalar transport problems in two-dimensional laminar and turbulent recirculating flow. The results are compared to currently avaiable schemes such as PLDS, QUICK, LODA, ULTRA- SHARP etc., and these results demonstrate that the bounded OPTIMAL and the bounded LODA with local full upwinding can give accurate and wiggle free solutions with properly designed coarse mesh layout. However, the OPTIMAL evidently appears advantageous for practical applications because of its computational simplicity and stable convergent process.

Recently, many people have been resettling from traditional cave dwellings (Yao-Dong) to dwellings above ground (Fang-Wu) in Yao-Dong settlements of Chinese Loess Land. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the difference between Yao-Dong and Fang-Wu with respect to spatial organization and hierarchical order of place. In conclusion, no difference in functional planning or usage was found between Yao-Dong and Fang-Wu. However, the hierarchical order of the two types of .dwelling was found to be dissimilar in that the structure of a Yao-Dong is strongly influenced by its orientation, whereas a Fang-wu's order is mainly determined by the position of its gate.

This particular thesis is all about what Japanese architects have done in their own activities with words. The study forthe thesis is based on following points; the activhy of architect is not only material practice, but language practice as well. With this notion, we have already presented papers on THESIS OFDOMESTIC ARCHITECTURE OF ARCHITECTS and THOUGHTS ON CITY OF ARCHITECTS. This time we report DESIGN THEME OF ARCHITECTS. The process of study is consisted of two parts; INITIALLY, we studied what kind of issue architects have been concerned with, through their own theories. SECONDLY, we forcused on words which express design theme in each theory, and clarified sphere of architects design theme and succession of each other. On this particular study, we made clear what Japanese architects have thought in their design activity after World War n. At the same time, this study is also for the trial of searching for the academic method of study on architects language practice.

The purpose of this article is to analyze the coincidence of way-finding method and spatial information from the protocol data concerned with sighting and thinking of subjects who make way-finding as a first-time visit from an entrance to a room (goal) in two architectural facilities. It became clear that subjects change their way-finding method, which is consisted of several units of "way-finding", to coincide with spatial information. If the coincidence of way-finding method and spatial information is not good, way-finding fails, and in some cases, "missing information", "mis-recognition" or "back-track" occurs.

According to urbanization, a space of city is rapidly homogenized, and a community is rapidly destroyed. We can say that this is an estranged situation from essential qualities of human being. Therefore, it is necessary that we should hold regional relations or support re-union of regional relations. In this report the regional character is considered, forcusing upon a park as outdoor space to accomplish the purpose above. In conclusion, the park which is useful for holding regional character is a small-scale one (of a closely regional type) or a medium-scale one (of a regional type).
