The Distinction of Personal Factors on Perception of Environmental Problems: Thai adolescence

This research was to study the environmental perception of the difference of personal factors. Sixteen environmental problem issues were used to study. The research instrument used in this study was the measurement of perceiving levels using Likert scale 1-5 questionnaires. The samples were 120 undergraduate students in Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon, Bangkok, Thailand. The sampling was nonprobability sampling, the statistical analysis was T-test and analysis of variance (ANOVA). The research finding found that the distinction between personal factors affects the level impact of perception of environmental problems issues on statically significant

Product Design Enhancing Environmental Perception and Encouraging Behavioural Change towards Sustainability

This study focuses on reducing environmental impact by design and aim to inform the environmental information through product design to support user behavioural change. The objects are to analyse user attribute factors that affect to perception distinction of environmental information, consider environmental data contents and information designs that Influence to user behaviour and evaluating design principles. This research is an empirical research in the methodology used mixed methods. The results will expand the knowledge and theory of sustainable product design to emphasise on user behaviour change theory and the guidelines for daily life product designKeywords: Product Design, Environmental Perception, Behavioral Change, SustainabilityISSN: 2398-4287© 2017.

รายงานวิจัย -- มหาวิทยาลัยเทคโนโลยีราชมงคลพระนคร, 2554This research aims to study and test a ceramic product in using to constructs a wall. This research is based on a previous studying to develop a ceramic product that saves the energy in the building. The early test shows the product has out door heat resisting capability and it is very user-friendly. However, the test was only an early stage. The research still lack of a real life situation test and has very little feedback from the consumers. All of which are very importance to farther develop this product into a production stage. The research has 2 steps. First step, to testing the heat and humidity resisting quality of the product, the researcher is building four testing blocks (dimension 1x1x1 meter). Each block has different material on one of its side, block 1 has brick, block 2 has concrete masonry unit, block 3 has autoclaved aerated concrete, and block 4 has ceramic block. The other three side of each block have a heated and humidity resisting form. The researches test the following; heat energy, the temperature inside the blocks, and humidity inside the block. After comparing the difference between the airs inside and out-side of the blocks, the block 2 with concrete masonry unit has the best humidity resisting quality and is the most user-friendly product. In the term of heat resisting, block 3 with autoclaved aerated concrete perform the best. Second step, to test the user-friendliness of the product, the researcher found 2 groups of consumers. First group are the wall constructing expert. This group has a hard time using this product and can’t get use d to the product so, they find this product to be too thin and too weak. Second group the home owner, feel the product has a thinner wall and believe it’s weaker than a typical construction brick. There for, they still don’t know how to use this product.Rajamangala University of Technology Phra NaKho

Development and Design Kitchen Furniture of Experience Training for Blind

รายงานการวิจัย--มหาวิทยาลัยเทคโนโลยีราชมงคลพระนคร, 2554The purpose of this research aims to develop and design kitchen furniture of experience training for blind. The samples of this research were consisted of 2 groups : Blind (15) and Low Vision (15). By means of BME (Body Motion Environment) testing and the observation method, the research endeavors to derive the spatial and dimensional solutions. Areas of interest were explored include circulation areas for kitchen furniture access, major activity areas around cooking activities model (3x3x2.5 m) and the behaviors on the top view and the side view that occur in cooking areas were investigated by using digital camera (Moticam 1000).Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakho

โครงการออกแบบผลิตภัณฑ์อุปกรณ์ประกอบถนนที่สัมพันธ์กับการใช้งานพื้นที่ส่วนตัวในพื้นทีสาธารณะเพื่อตอบสนองกับการดำเนินชีวิตในสังคมเมือง

รายงานวิจัย -- มหาวิทยาลัยเทคโนโลยีราชมงคลพระนคร, 2561This study was to 1) investigate the using behavior on the road accessories in the park, and 2) analyze the design guideline for the product consistent with the use of leisure space in passive way, 3) synthesize the design guideline to for the product consistent with the use of leisure space in passive way to response city life, and 4) to find solutions to the problems of sustainable use of public space. The conclusion of the data analysis by using questionnaires from residents in the sample area found that; 1) Respondents were 130 men or 43.4% and 170 women or 56.6%, 2) the highest average score was from 94 respondents, age 31-40 years old or 31.4%, 78 respondents age 21-30 years old or 26%, 3) 116 respondents or 38.7% were company staffs with the highest score, followed with 89 students or 29.7 and 4) 4 respondents or 8.89% who have live less than 20 years, 14 respondents or 13.11%, age 21-30 years old, 12 respondents or 26.67%, age 31-40 years old, and 15 respondents or 33.33% for age 41 years old up, 5) 98 respondents or 32.6% spend time in the park 1-2 times a week, 94 respondents or 31.3%, 6) 142 respondents or 47.3% for the reason of relaxing in the park- quiet and followed with easy to access, 121 respondents or 40.3% and lastly, 7) the activities in the park is relaxing, 141 respondents or 47%.For design, the research design from data analysis and experts. It shows that 1) the main structure is steel tube and nylon product, and 2) concept design was from nest and cradle.

Design and Product Development Ceramics Using for Making Wall of Energy Conservation Building

รายงานการวิจัย--มหาวิทยาลัยเทคโนโลยีราชมงคลพระนคร, 2553This research aims to study and develop ceramics material using in the wall construction which can be used to proof the heat and water, reduce absorbed humidity in the building. The product can save the energy, especially, the building which is set the air conditioning. The experiment found that the proportion of clay body can be developed and the result of thermal conductivity (K- value) was 0.111 W/ m. /K, the permeability was 7 percent, the glaze can be used to proof water. The product was compared to three kinds of construction materials which are brick, concrete masonry unit, and autoclaved aerated concrete found that K- value and permeability were lower. Moreover, it can proof water and save more energy for the air conditioning building.Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakho
