ANALYZING RESIDENTIAL CONSCIOUSNESS OF NEW TOWNS IN SANDA-CITY IN HYOGO FREE. : A study on the measures to develop in suburban new town sustainably

This report aims to reveal the actual situation and characteristic tendency of leisure activities in neighboring districts in differing communities. For this, the authors traced the changes in trends and characteristics of leisure activities of the community residents based on the time-sequential investigations and analyses conducted regarding leisure activities in 1975, 1990, and 2005. With a particular focus on neighboring district, analysis is performed from both the viewpoints of the time spent on leisure activity and number of leisure activity items, and its relation with facility use distance. The result has revealed matters including the following: 1) It was proven from the time-sequential changes of leisure activities that the neighboring districts serve as a major activity space in which a number of leisure activities take place daily. 2) Different age brackets show remarkably different activity characteristics and in addition, the two communities have distinct activity characteristics. 3) It was demonstrated that a particular relationship can be found between leisure activities and facility use distances in neighboring districts. 4) The two communities exhibit separate tendencies in characteristics of leisure activities and facility use distances.

Measurements are conducted on group evacuation of simulated patients aided by working nurses using an actual hospital ward. Three types of auxiliaries for evacuation, stretchers, sheets and wheelchairs, are selected. Influences of the proportion of different types of auxiliaries and ambulatory patients, number of nurse, lighting conditions, and the existence of a corner on the evacuation route are studied.All components of the time to evacuate from bed to temporary refuge area are quantified. The analysis suggests the followings. (1) Existence of a corner has significant influence on the evacuation with stretchers. (2) Evacuation with auxiliaries occupying large area such as stretchers tends to be affected strongly by other evacuees. (3) Moving speed with stretchers and wheelchairs in a group evacuation is reduced by roughly 30�45% and 16�30% respectively from individual evacuation.
