Recently, as emotional elements have been applied to many fields including marketing, architecture, and design, new understanding on and interest in sensibility are emerging. The sensibility, as opposite meaning to the reason, has been excluded from academic object, and researches in sensibility have been diversified for the meaning, scope, application methods and even application target of sensibility without consistency. This study aims to redefine meaning of sensibility by examining documents related to sensibility, and to examine the features of sensibility in design, especially in space design. Consequently, sensibility was defined to function as a filter which deals with numerous stimulative informations intuitively and uniformly while human gives significance to a stimulus. According to the examination on apparent features of sensibility and studies of sensibility engineering, the sensibility occurs not only by visual and physical stimulus but also by meaningful stimulus, and both are known to have mutual influence on each other. In space design, spaces of many purposes can be categorized into the spaces of routine and out of routine following the empirical time, and physical stimulus and interesting factor pursued by these spaces are inversely proportional. This study is meaningful insofar as it enabled to explain interaction between physical stimulus, meaning, and other factors within sensibility as a comprehensive concept by redefining its concept.

'Emotional value' has been a buzz word for design and ergonomics in the era of business innovation. However, the complication of 'emotion' in terms of literal and practical meaning has made it a challenging but confusing task for designers to develop a new product with emotional value. 'Sensibility' and 'emotion' are interchangeable terms to describe human feeling ('gamsung' in Korean). The confusion reached at its peak with Korean terms. Even scholars in Korean language, psychologists, ergonomists, and designers are bewildered at the choice of proper expression for human feeling in both Korean and English. The difficulty could explain the problems in 'sensibility ergonomics' in Korea. The purpose of this paper is to provide both fundamental and satisfying information with people in the area of 'sensibility ergonomics'. Therefore, in this paper, a number of articles and books on sensibility, psychology, sensibility ergonomics, and design were reviewed to clarify the meaning of sensibility and relationship among similar words that have been used with unintentional misunderstanding. Also many adjectives on human sensibility were collected and complied for the use of sensibility evaluation.

This study explores the relationship between the expression of material Sensibility properties and the meaning of tectonic in the architectural space of Kengo kuma. First of all, It can be derived that The sensibility of the material is based on phenomenological meaning of the tectonic after modern architecture that also Kengo kuma has been aware of. So it derived characteristics of sensibility by material expression and meaning from the Kengo kuma's works including critical books and collection of architecture works. All derived characteristics consist of sub-sections of the case analysis to figure out correlation with expression of Material Sensibility and tectonic meaning at the Kengo kuma's works. At the ends, it was analyzed through the relationship chart.

Purpose: The concept of sensibility as sensitive perception is a part of the most important elements in human relations and nursing. However, sensibility has not been a focus of nursing research and it seems important to clarify the meaning of sensibility. Therefore, in this study the meaning of sensibility as a cognitive faculty of humans was explored. The results will contribute to the development of nursing science and art. Method: The process described by Walker and Avant to analyze concepts was used to define the concept of sensibility. Results: Attributes of sensibility were defined as 'emotional ability to feel', 'delicate, sensitive awareness of emotion' 'appreciative, tender hearted about oneself and others', 'awareness of intellectual, moral values', 'liability to be vulnerable', 'direct interrelation with individual'. Conclusion: The sensibility mentioned above included the attribute of caring within nurses intrinsic disposition which is achieved through the process of interrelational communication. Therefore continuous study and development of this concept should not only provide resources for nursing but also have a positive effect in therapeutic personal relationships.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the sensibility of the compound fashion image of contemporary fashion. The specific objectives were to analyze 1)the structure of meaning about fashion sensibility on 2)the difference of fashion sensibility by categories on 3)the difference of fashion sensibility by demographical aspects on 4)the consumer sensibility on the compound fashion image. For collecting data 55 stimulus and questionnaire which consisted of bi-polar 21 pairs adjective scale were contributed 675. The results were summarized as following : 1. Factors of fashion sensibility consist of estheticism, activeness, personality and feminity. And the meaning of fashion sensibility is young and personalty. 2. The man/woman and the past/present are highly estimated personality, the main/subcultural is activeness and the local/global is feminity of fashion sensibilities. 3. gender and age have high difference of the compound fashion image so they are important variance for fashion sensibilities. 4. Preference, purchase and quality are highly influenced by estheticism, pleasure is influenced by personality. The results of this study will be utilized in the clothing design for accepting customers' specific fashion sensibility about compound fashion image.

Physical chemistry states that electric potential is due to Gibb's free energy from chemical reaction of the electric cell. However we have not the electromagnetic meaning of Gibb's free energy. the free energy is discovered to be a kinetic energy part of the rotating electromagnetic wave ($\pi$-ray), which is different from conventional Coulomb attraction energy and can anticipate that there is a current difference between before and after the electric load. This paper manipulates the relationship between $\pi$-rays (Gibb's free energy) and electrolysis, cell reaction and brown gas reaction.

The purpose of this study was to construct the scale in fashion sensibility. Base on the Fashion Magazines and free word association method, 919 affective words were condensed into 36 semantic differential bi-polar scales. 128 male and 128 female in Pusan rated their Fashion Sensibility by 87 kinds of costume samples from photographs divided into four types according to color, detail and trimming, pattern, textile. The obtained data analyzed by Cronbach ${\alpha}$, Factor analysis, Cluster analysis to consider of the reliability, tranquility, and resemblance among the meaning. The results of the analysis, it was found cleary that aesthetics, maturity character, and femininity masculinity etc were consisted of Fashion Sensibility and 25 item of affective words of Fashion Sensibility and 25 item of affective words of Fashion Sensibility were constructed.

In the $21^{st}$ century of digital information society, design is changing from an analog era that focuses on logical and rational knowledge to a new paradigm of an era focused on sensible communications that can react fast. Design becomes to fulfill sensible needs; moreover, full efforts are being made in the academic research of sensibility evaluation for the conceptualization, quantization, and visualization of design sensibilities based on the measurement and evaluation of sensibility. This study provides insight into a sensibility evaluation method to understand the global user's sensibility in the fashion design field. As for research methods, first, measurement methods of physical, psychological, and physiological reactions to design sensibility were examined through written research on sensibility evaluation in both domestic and overseas research. Next, studies on sensibility during the past 15 years from 2000 to 2014 in the field of domestic fashion design were analyzed to grasp research trends in sensibility evaluation methods; subsequently, suitable sensibility evaluation methods for current fashion design were discussed. As a result of the study, it was shown that most sensibility evaluation studies in the field of domestic fashion design are based on surveys using sensibility terms. However, it requires the process of translating among different terms in different lingual cultures and within the limits of a uniformed evaluation. In this regard, recent cases of overseas design studies have been applying new methods to measure physiological reactions such as eye tracking methods combined with IT. The analysis of multilateral sensibility evaluation methods in this study have significant meaning for use as basic data to establish a planning for an evaluation scale to measure the sensibility of global consumers towards modern fashion design more quantitatively.
