Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 建築學系碩博士班 === 100 ===   This thesis aims to study the influence of monsoon on traditional settlements during Japanese colonization, using Wang-An Huai-Chai village as case study.   Firstly, based on the was reconstructed 1913 cadastral map, this study explores the original physical environment of this village during the Japanese colonization period. The next, base on historic evidences from written records, tries to reconstruct the original physical environment of the village in an attempt to preserve the aesthetic and historic value of the village. Examples of historical evidences include spatial location maps, land information, other maps and existing literature, were used to develop the principle and procedure of reconstructing buildings, geographic feature and planting.   Thirdly, 3D models were made after confirming the site arrangement of buildings, geographical feature and planting in 1913. Before making the 3D models for the physical environment of this village, the database for buildings (houses and temples etc.), various levels of reconstruction and the operational procedures have been established: (a.) to speculate the spatial layout of buildings based on their individual land area, especially houses,and then (b.) to propose the scale of original buildings with reference to that of other existing buildings.Therefore, the scale of the whole village can be reconstructed.   Finally, wind flow in relation to the whole site arrangement of the village has been discussed. Using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) as a simulation tool, 3D models of the whole village set and the climatic data from Peng-hu Weather Station have been used as parameters to work out the effects of winter and summer monsoon on the whole village arrangement. With the above results, the principle of siting the traditional Wang-An Huai-Chai village was further interpreted.
