Effect of freezing of soybeans on instrumental and sensory textures of soybean curd was investigated. The hardness, gumminess and chewiness of soybean curd prepared with frozen soybeans were about three times as high as those prepared with unfrozen soybeans, while cohesiveness and elasticity were affected little by freezing. Sensory evaluation showed that freezing improved the quality of soybean curd. Instrumental and sensory textures of soybean curd prepared with frozen soybeans were excellent and almost same regardless of the boiling time when the soy slurry was boiled for 2.5 min or 5 min. However, the textures of soybean curd prepared with unfrozen soybeans were deteriorated by reducing the boiling time to 2.5 min. It was postulated that freezing facilitate the heat-denaturation of soyprotein to enhance aggregation of soy proteins and formation of cross-linkage between aggregate and $Ca^{++}$. Frozen soybeans resulted in soybean curd which lower fat content, while protein content of soybean curd was almost he same. Frozen soybeans gave a lower yield of soybean curd, which is supposed to be caused by the more fat loss during whey-off.

Effect of freezing of soybean and addition of mugwort on the flavor development and the changes of chemical compositions in Chungkookjang was investigated. The changes in the amount of amino-type N, the activities of ${\alpha}-amylase$ and protease, and the content of volatile compounds were determined during aging of Chungkookjang. During ripening, a little higher protease activity was detected in Chungkookjang made of frozen soybean than in that made of non-frozen soybean. However, the profile of ${\alpha}-amylase$ activity of Chungkookjang made of frozen soybean was very similar to that of Chungkookjang made of non-frozen soybean. The amount of amino-type N increased gradually with the ripening period and decreased after 21 days of ripening. The amount of amino-type N was slightly higher in Chungkookjang made of frozen soybean than in that made of non-frozen soybean. Addition of mugwort had little effect on the enzyme activities and the amino-type N content. The mugwort added in Chungkookjang reduced the production of cis-3-hexenol which is responsible for the unpleasant odor, and freezing of soybean enhanced the production of 2, 6-dimethyl pyrazine which is contribute to the taste. According to sensory evaluation, flavor was the highest after the 14 days of ripening and addition of mugwort increased significantly the flavor in both Chungkookjang prepared with frozen soybean and Chungkookjang with non-frozen soybean. However, the effect of freezing of soybean on the flavor was not significant.

The reaching time to the freezing point was to be fast in the order of 2% agar gel, 5% agar gel, 20% gelatin gel, pork, respectively. The freezing time and the passing time through the zone of the maximum ice crystal formation had linear relationship with the coolant temperature. The average diameter d$_{p}$ of ice crystal in a soybean protein gel and the moving of freezing front were represented an inverse proportion, and the moving velocity of freezing front was shown as 3.4$\times$10$^{-6}$ $\textrm{cm}^2$/sec from predicted theoretical formula. This value was very close to experimental results. The storage temperature did not give any influences for the growth of ice crystal in inside soybean protein gels during freezing conservation. The relationship between freezing condition and structure of freezing front was as follows : (moving velocity of freezing front) : (mass transfer rate of water at freezing point)$\times$(surface area of freezing front).

The specific heat capacity and density of soybean oil and soy protein composing of the soybean curd were measured between $30^{\circ}C\;and\;-40^{\circ}C$. The thermal conductivity of soybean oil was measured to be 0.160 and 0.140, $W/m{\cdot}K$ at unfrozen and frozen states, respectively. The effective thermal conductivity of the soybean curd depended not only on its water content but also on its fat and protein contents.

The effect of freezing on cooking times, tastes and microstructures of beans were examined. Freezing was effective in shortening of cooking time and improving of the taste: while the cooking time was reduced to one-half by freezing, textures, flavors and overall acceptabilities of black bean and soybean were improved by freezing. A high correlation was found between sensory texture and Instron puncture force, and sensory texture was predictable from puncture force using equation. The microstructure of cotyledonary cells of soybean was characterized with thick cell wall and no difference was observed between frozen and non-frozen soybean. But the spherosome enclosing the protein body was destructed by freezing.

Subsea tunnel can be highly vulnerable to seawater intrusion due to unexpected high-water pressure during construction. An artificial ground freezing (AGF) will be a promising alternative to conventional reinforcement or water-tightening technology under high-water pressure conditions. In this study, the freezing energy and required time was calculated by the theoretical model of the heat flow to estimate the total amount of refrigerant required for the artificial ground freezing. A lab-scale freezing chamber was devised to investigate changes in the thermal and mechanical properties of sandy soil corresponding to the variation of the salinity and water pressure. The freezing time was measured with different conditions during the chamber freezing tests. Its validity was evaluated by comparing the results between the freezing chamber experiment and the numerical analysis. In particular, the freezing time showed no significant difference between the theoretical model and the numerical analysis. The amount of refrigerant for artificial ground freezing was estimated from the numerical analysis and the freezing efficiency obtained from the chamber test. In addition, the energy ratio for maintaining frozen status was calculated by the proposed formula. It is believed that the energy ratio for freezing will depend on the depth of rock cover in the subsea tunnels and the water temperature on the sea floor.

Processing conditions of filefish steaks and effect of soybean protein on quality during frozen storage were investigated. Additives which is added to the filefish meat were 1% of table salt, 0.2% polyphosphate, 0.5% of sodium bicarbonate, 0.2% of monosodium glutamate, 0.2% of red pepper powder, 0.4% of white pepper powder, 0.2% of garlic powder and 0.2% of nutmeg. The mixture was minced in the stone mortar and then stored at -3 to $-5^{\circ}C$ for two days prior to frozen storage. The benefical effects of adding 5% of soybean protein to the filefish steaks were the control of free drip, oxidative rancidity and in texture that exhibited the improvement of quality. The quality of frozen filefish steaks, by sensory evaluvation, was not inferior to that of hamburger on the market.

Effect of freezing on the hydration rate and growth characteristics of bean sprout of two domestic cultivars of soybean, Eunha beans and Taegwang beans, was investigated. Freezing of the soybeans at $-80^{\circ}C$ affected characteristics of the hydration and growth of soybean sprout of the beans. Hydration rate of the frozen beans depended on the hydration temperature. It decreased up to 50% at lower than $60^{\circ}C$ of hydration temperature, but it did not decrease at higher than $60^{\circ}C$. Activation energies of frozen Eunha and Taegwang beans were 39.79 and 39.25 kJ/mol, respectively. Kinetic compensation effect between activation energy values and the pre-exponential factor for the hydration of soybeans with or without freezing was observed. Germination rate and thickness of the bean sprout increased by freezing, however, yield and weight were not affected by freezing.

Four heat conduction models were examined for defatted soy-protein curds in order to get the 'intrinsic' thermal conductivity of soy-protein. As the result of examination, the 'intrinsic', thermal conductivities of soy-protein, frozen and unfrozen states, were determined on the basis of series model to be 0.488 W/m.K and 0.300 W/m.K, respectively. By using the 'intrinsic' thermal conductivity values of soybean protein and the series model, the effective thermal conductivity of soybean curds, with and without fat, at frozen and unfrozen states, was predicted satisfactorily, The temperature dependency of the effective thermal conductivity of soybean curd was mostly observed to correlate with the thermal conductivity of water and ice.
