Pavement distress and traffic accidents are caused by pot-hole. In addition, direct and indirect damages of road users are increasing, such as loss of life due to personal injury and damage to vehicles. Generally, the asphalt concrete pavements are continuously aging from the production process to the terminal performance period. Aging causes stripping due to cracks and moisture penetration and weakening the pavement structure to induce pot-hole. In this study, adhesion performance and moisture sensitivity were evaluated according to aging degree in order to investigate the effect of aging on asphalt pavement. As a result of the study, the viscosity of the asphalt binder was increased with aging and the bond strength of the aged was increased 2~3 times than that of the unaged. The results of accelerated aging test showed an increases in indirect tensile strength and the increase in the TSR (Tensile Strength Ratio) by 4.2~8.9 %. As a result, it is noted that the anti-stripping and adhesion performances of the aged asphalt concrete are improved compared to the unaged one under the aging conditions of asphalt binder coated on aggregates.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of face wash with ginseng cold process (CP) soap. In order to remove external environmental factors, skin changes were examined immediately after 10 minutes of face wash. The same water and towel were used at the same place. As a control group, the cases of washing with water without using cleanser and with foam cleanser (F/C), which is a popular commercial product, were set. In the case of water washing, there was a significant decrease in pores and pigmentation, but the significance was small. In the case of F/C washing, there was a very significant decrease in pores and pigmentation, but the loss of moisture was rapid. In the case of ginseng cp soap, pores and pigmentation were significantly reduced, while moisture loss was negligible. Ginseng cp soap is considered as a form of face wash that is suitable for skin care.

This study was done to provide basic data for the operation of a safer cook-chill system by comparing and evaluating the quality of foods which were prepared using the sous vide cook-chill system and the conventional cook-chill system, according to the preparation methods and storage temperature. Simmered chickens in soy sauce were prepared using the sous vide cook-chill system and the conventional cook-chill system and their quality was evaluated at the time of preparation and storage. Firstly, foods were prepared using the sous vide cook-chill (SVCC) system and the conventional cook-chill (CC) system and the redquired time and temperature during each preparation stage were measured and physicochemical (pH, Aw, and moisture content) and microbial qualities were evaluated. Secondly, in order to evaluate the quality and safety, the moisture content and microbial (standard plate count, coliform count, psychrotrophic bacteria count, and anaerobic bacteria count) qualities were evaluated according to the preparation methods and temperatures after the foods were stored at 3$^{\circ}C$ and 10$^{\circ}C$ for 10 days and reheated.

The high temperature stability of a chloride mixture, $NaCl-KCl-ZnCl_2$ (NaKZn-Chloride), is investigated to evaluate its potential as a thermal storage material. A thermal storage media should maintain a stable thermal properties within the temperature range of heat storage. Results from an a priori experiment showed that the NaKZn-chloride is stable only up the much lower temperature, while its stability limit is reported to be $850^{\circ}C$ in the literature. This study aims to investigate if the thermal property is changed by the moisture absorbed in the heat storage material. The effect of moisture content on the thermal properties was measured. The results show that the melting point remains the same regardless of the amount of moisture absorbed. Meanwhile, the high temperature stability is lower for the moisture treated samples. The results of this work infer that the loss of a hygroscopic thermal storage media can be reduced by avoiding its contacts to moisture in designing high temperature thermal storage systems.

The aim of our study was to develop drying process of apple slice. Quality characteristics of apple slices dried by hot-air and freeze drying after osmotic dehydration was investigated in different sucrose solution (20, 40, $60^{\circ}Brix$) and steeping time (2, 4, 8 hours). The weight of apple slice before and after osmotic dehydration was measured for characteristic of mass transfer. Consequently, osmotic dehydration increases weight reduction, water loss and solid gain of apple slice as the concentration of the sucrose solution and steeping time increased. Moisture contents of apples slices dried hot-air and freeze were about 3 to 7%. Hunter color L, a, b value was lower than non-treatment to osmotic dehydration of apple slice. In hot-air drying, L value decreased as the concentration of the sucrose solution and steeping time increased. The hardness increased as the concentration of the sucrose solution and steeping time increased. Contents of monosaccharide (glucose, fructose) decrease by osmotic dehydration but sucrose increased. In comparison with hot-air drying, freeze drying was high in contents of free sugar.

Two rice cultivars, Jinju and Iri 348, were used to compare the changes in the contents of some organic metabolites and ions and in some enzyme levels under water-and salt-stressed conditions. The water loss and proline accumulation under water and salt stresses were accelerated more in the salt-sensitive cultivar Iri 348 than in the salt-tolerant Jinju. The contents of crude protein, total free amino acids, proline and polyphenols increased under water-or salt-stressed rice, but that of reducing sugar increased under water stress only. The water-and salt-stresses induced the high ratio of low molecular organic solutes to crude protein in Jinju but not in Iri 348. The ratio of total free amino acids to crude protein increased under the stressed conditions was likely due to high protease activity. The contents of $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ were higher in Iri 348 than in Jinju. Iri 348 had higher values of $Na^+/Ca^{2+}$ and monovalent/divalent of cations, but lower of $K^+/Na^+$ than Jinju Rice. The further studies should emphasize to set the correlations between these ratios and tolerance to water and salt stresses among rice cultivars.

Physicochemical properties including viscosity, temperature and pH stability, color turbidity and moisture retention power of xylooligosaccharide(XO) as food material were investigated to apply to food process. The viscosity of 70 bx XO was 930 cP at $20^{\circ}C$ and 90 cP at $60^{\circ}C$, which was higher than that of sugar but lower than that of other oligosacchrides. XO remained stable after heat treatment for 1hr at $100^{\circ}C$ and pH 2.5 to 8.0 indicating excellent heat and pH stability. The pH of XO was measured $5.0{\pm}0.1$ and the color turbidvity of XO was very low at pH $2.5{\sim}4.0$. The color turbidity of XO increased as pH increased, but it was not high enough to affect food process. When heated with 1% glycine the color turbidity of XO was very low and changed little with pH changes. To measure moisture retention power XO was stored at $25^{\circ}C$ and 75% relative humidity for 71 day. XO retained more than 95% of the original weight; whereas sugar lost 28%. These results suggest that XO has useful physicochemical properties for various food process to improve the functionality of food.

식품동결에 의한 품질손상에 있어 크게 영향을 미치는 인자 중의 하나가 체적변화에 의한 조직 파괴이므로 식육 및 과채류의 냉동시 내부압력에 따른 조직파괴를 방지하기 위한 기초연구로 다양한 동결방법에 따른 내부압력 변화에 대하여 조사한 결과, 급속 및 완만동결시 우육의 내부압력 변화 경향은 동결 직전에 급격히 상승한 후 동결 초기부터 최대빙결정생성대를 통과하는 동안은 급격히 감소하다가 다시 온도가 내려감에 따라 압력변화는 증가와 감소를 반복하여 상승하는 경향을 보여 주었고, 동결시의 내부압력 크기는 약 8~10 psig 수준이며, 내부압력의 변화 경향은 정지공기식보다 침지식에서 약 1 psig 정도 크게 나타났다. 냉동냉장시에 일어나는 내부압력의 상하변화는 돈육의 품온차가 ${\pm}1^{\circ}C$일 때, 시료중량에 따라 1.84~2.32 psig 정도의 내부압력 차가 반복적으로 발생됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 돈육의 해동시 내부압력은 해동 개시 후 급격히 상승하여 5분 이내에 최고압력에 도달한 이후에는 서서히 하강하였으며, 해동시에 발생한 내부압력의 값은 동결시의 내부압력 값보다도 대부분 크게 나타났다. 또한, 균온처리한 우육의 동결시 내부압력 값은 약 1~4 psig 수준으로 균온처리하지 않은 우육에 비하여 매우 적게 나타났으며, 동결소요시간도 약 10~20% 정도 짧게 나타났다. 그리고 균온처리 및 다양한 동결방법에 따른 동결식육의 조직과 냉동냉장 중의 품질변화를 비교 검토한 결과, 동결방법에 따른 드립손실율은 우육의 경우 정지공기식으로 처리한 시료는 타 처리구에 비해 계속 높게 나타났으며, 돈육은 우육에 비해 상대적으로 드립손실량이 적게 나타났으나 송풍식으로 처리한 시료에서 저장 40일째, 7.39%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 동결 우육 및 돈육의 pH변화는 뚜렷한 차이를 나타내지 않았으며, VBN 및 TBA값에 있어서는 균온 처리한 시료가 완만 및 급속동결 처리한 타 시료에 비해 저장 200일까지 가장 변화가 없었다. 동결저장온도의 상하변동에 있어서는 온도변동 횟수가 증가할수록 pH 및 수분함량은 뚜렷한 변화가 없었으나 드립손실율, VBN 및 TBA값은 온도 변동횟수가 증가할수록 서서히 증가하는 경향을 보여 주었다.

유역에서의 홍수를 예측하기 위한 다양한 강우-유출 모형들이 개발되어 사용되고 있다. 개념적 강우-유출 모형들은 신뢰성과 적용성이 높아 실무에서 널리 활용되어왔으나, 강우-유출 과정을 단순화하여 고려하므로 유출예측의 정확도에 한계가 있다. 또한 모형의 매개변수에 여러 불확실성이 존재하므로 충분한 양의 관측자료를 사용한 보정 작업이 필요하다. 물리적 강우-유출 모형들은 유출예측 결과가 비교적 물리적으로 정확하다는 장점이 있지만, 높은 계산 비용 및 수치적 불안정성으로 인하여 실무에의 적용이 힘들다. 본 연구에서는 홍수 예측의 정확도와 효율성을 모두 확보할 수 있는 하이브리드 기법을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 기법은 물리적 모형인 동역학파 모형과 개념적 모형인 순간단위도 모형, 그리고 딥러닝 모형을 결합하여 사용하는 기법이다. 유역의 조도계수 및 지형을 활용한 동역학파 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 동역학파 시뮬레이션 결과 및 멱함수로 나타내어지는 비선형적 강우-유출 관계를 이용하여 유역의 순간단위도를 유도였다. 또한, 딥러닝 모형인 LSTM 모형을 활용하여 강우손실 매개변수를 추정하였으며, 이를 이용하여 강우손실을 계산한 후 유효강우주상도를 산정하였다. 그리고 유역 출구에서의 홍수수문곡선은 유효강우주상도와 순간단위도를 활용한 회선적분을 통해 예측되었다. 본 연구에서 개발한 기법을 시험유역 및 자연유역에서의 홍수 예측에 적용해보았으며, 예측 결과는 NSE=0.55-0.90, R²=0.67-0.95의 높은 정확도를 보였다. 본 연구에서 유도하는 순간단위도는 한 유역에서 유일하지 않으며, 유효 강우강도의 함수이므로 홍수 예측에 비선형적 강우-유출 관계를 고려할 수 있으며, 수많은 유효 강우강도에 대한 순간단위도들은 멱함수를 이용하여 순간적으로 유도될 수 있다. 또한, 유역의 강우 특성이나 지표면의 토양수분, 식생과 같은 특성을 딥러닝 모형을 통해 고려함으로써 강우 손실 산정의 불확실성을 줄일 수 있다. 또한, 순간단위도 유도를 위한 기초작업인 동역학파 시뮬레이션은 유역의 지형과 조도계수만을 필요로 하므로 미계측 유역에의 적용이 유리하다.

In this study, the anti-oxidant activity, elastase inhibitory activity, and skin moisturizing effect of mixed extracts of Acanthopanax senticosus and Citrus unshiu fermented with Bovista plumbea (B-MEAC) were evaluated to verify the availability as a material for inner beauty. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of B-MEAC was showed in a dose-dependent manner (SC₅₀=156.1±0.82 ㎍/ml). Also, B-MEAC inhibited the elastase activity in a concentration-dependent manner (p<0.001). To study the effect of B-MEAC on mouse skin hydration, skin moisture content and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) measured. As a result, skin moisture content increased (p<0.001) and TEWL decreased (p<0.01) compared to the dry-induced control group. The effect on the change of collagen fibers in the dry-induced mouse skin was examined through Masson's trichrome staining. In the group administered with B-MEAC, the amount of collagen relatively increased compared to the control group, and the intensity of blue color increased. The effect on the moisturizing function of the dry-induced mouse skin was examined by Western blot method. In the group administered with B-MEAC, the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) protein decreased compared to the control group. In addition, the expression level of collagen1A1 (COL1A1), hyaluronan synthase-2 (HAS2), filaggrin, and aquaporin-3 (AQP3) recovered (p<0.001). Therefore, these results suggest the potential of B-MEAC as a skin hydration agent for inner beauty.
