The previous two-dimensional non-linear tidal model of the East China Sea(Choi, 1980) has been further refined to resolve the flow over the ocntinental shelf in more detail. The mesh resolution of the present finite-difference grid system used is 4 minutes latitude by 5 minutes longitude over the entire shelf. The developed fine grid two-dimensional model was utilized to reproduce the $M_2$ tide and $M_4$ tide for the East China Sea contnental shelf. There is general agreement between the model results and the current observation made in the Eastern Yellow Sea, which supports the calculated tidal regime over the shelf. Some preliminary results on maximum bottom stress and tidally-induced residual current were also examined and discussed.

The effects of the water extracts from thyme(TM) and tarragon(TG) on shelf-life and quality of kimchi were investigated by measuring the changes in pH, acidity, number of total microorganisms, number of Lactobacillii and Leuconostoc during fermentation at 1$0^{\circ}C$, and were tested for antimicrobial activities against Lactobacillus plantarum and Leuconostoc mesenteroides. TM and TG were extracted with water, ethyl ether, ethyl acetate and ethanol. Water, ethyl ether, ethyl acetate and ethanol extracts of TM showed antimicrobial activities against Lactobacillus plantarum and did not observed against Leuconostoc mesenteroides. On the other hand, water, ethyl acetate and ethanol extracts of TG showed antimicrobial activities against Leuconostoc mesenteroides and did not observed against Lactobacillus plantarum. The decrease of pH and the increase of acidity showed lower in kimchi prepared by adding water extracts from TM than in products from TG. The number of total microorganisms were also detected less in the kimchi prepared by adding water extracts from TM. And, the properties of barkless of kimchi measured instrumentally were higher for kimchi prepared by adding water extracts from TM, also maintaining good crispness. The optimal addition amounts of both TM and TG for good overall and spicy taste of kimchi were 0.03%. The results suggested the possible use of the extracts of TM and TG can be successfully used for the quality and extension of shelf-life of kimchi.

In order to obtain the objective indices which can assess the quality and the shelf-life of dried squid, nonenzymatic browning, carbonyl value, trimethyl amine (TMA) and trimethyl amine oxide (TMAO) decrease and panel test were determined in dried squid at various water activity levels. When the data of nonenzymatic browning fit a zero order equation, $r^2$ value were more than 0.92 except aw 0.52 for 0.8241. Through variance analysis for the data of browning extent and TMAO decrease, the confidence limits of regression equation were $99\%$ and their limit values of shelf-life were shown 0.45390 O. D./g. solid and 190.322 g/g respectively. In case of TMAO, $r^2$ value was calculated more than 0.95. Linear regression equation for the correlation between browning data and average panel score was Y=0.6138-0.053X and its $r^2$ value was 0.9285. Also in TMAO decrease, the equation was InY=2.0314+0.08269x and $r^2$ value was 0.7854. The shelf-life, evaluated by nonenzymatic browning, TMAO decrease and panel test, was 110-170 days at aw 0.45-0.76 except aw 0.15.

A Q-mode factor analysis for 115 surficial bottom sediments on the continental shelf off the southeast coast of Korean Peninsula(the Korea Strait) has been carried out to determine the depositional environments. The first four factors are taken as the "principal" factors, and the results are considered to represent the depositional history and sedimentary processes in relation to the Holocene sea-level changes. The fact implies that the sediments are grouped as outer-shelf relict sand sediments, inner-shelf modern muddy sediments, and finally the palimpsest sediments that are mainly distributed within and around the Korea Trough.

In this study, we have attempted to characterize the effects of encapsulated mustard oil with regard to the extension of the shelf life of kimchi. The quantity of mustard oil or encapsulated mustard oil added to the brined cabbage in this study was 0.05%(w/w). Overall, the fermentation processes in the encapsulated mustard oil-added kimchi (EMO) and mustard oil-added kimchi (MO) occurred at a slower rate than in the controls. The periods during which the MO and EMO kimchi samples were edible were prolonged for more than two weeks, according to measurements of pH, total acidity, and microbial changes. The overall acceptability of EMO was superior to MO throughout the entirety of the fermentation period. Sensory evaluation verified that EMO yielded a more favorable product than the MO and control varieties. Encapsulated mustard oil can be employed as a natural food additive to prolong the shelf life of kimchi, via an induced delay of the fermentation process.

The objective of this study was to investigate the color development and shelf-life effect of low-fat sausages (LFS) during refrigerated storage according to the additions of sodium lactate (SL), chitosan, and lac pigment. The LFS samples had $73{\sim}76%$ moisture, $3{\sim}4%$ fat, and $13{\sim}16%$ protein with a pH range of 6.4-6.6. The addition of chitosan ($MW\;=\;30{\sim}40\;kDa$) to LFS increased most textural properties. Hunter a (redness) values were increased by the addition of 0.05% lac pigment. The microbial growth of Listeria monocytogenes increased with increasing storage time. The addition of 2% SL and 0.3% chitosan with MW higher than $30{\sim}40\;kDa$ effectively inhibited the growth of L. monocytogenes. The microbial growth of L. monocytogenes was further reduced with increasing chitosan MW. These results indicated that the combination of SL with chitosans (MW > 30 kDa, 0.3%) and lac pigment (0.05%) improved shelf-life and color development in LFS during refrigerated storage.

This thesis studied that seven kinds of residual elements(inclusions) had influenced on fracture toughness($K_{IC}$) obtained by Begley-Logsdon and Rolfe-Novak model equation using tensile an d impact test data of I%CrMoV HP(high pressure) rotor steel. $K_{IC}$ design curve of ASME and fracture surface by SEM were also considered, obtained results are summarized as follows $K_{IC}$ was linearly increased with increase of temperature, effect of the inclusions was significantly over FATT. $K_{IC}$ at lower shelf temperature was quantitatively related to yield strength and was agreed well with Begley's equation. It was difficult to determine $K_{IC}$ because of specimen size and tester capacity at upper shelf temperature, but for this view point Rolfe-Novak's equation was useful. The degree of brittle fracture was dependent on FATT fundamentally, adding S, Sb to matrix decreased impact energy and adding Cu, As increased yield(tensile) strength, and the influence of the others minority inclusion was comparatively insignificant.

Pleurotus eryngii is one of the most commercially important mushrooms cultivated in Korea. However, the shelf-life of the fruiting body is short, limiting its export. A new hybrid strain H17 of P. eryngii was developed to extend the shelf-life by mono-mono crossing between monokaryotic strains derived from DanBi and KNR2774. Although the cultivation period of H17 was slightly longer than that of the reference cultivar Kenneutari No.2, the quality did not change and remained normal after a period of 65.0 days at $4^{\circ}C$. This result was significantly different from that of the reference cultivar Kenneutari No.2. Analysis of the genetic characteristics of the new hybrid strain H17 revealed a different profile from that of the parental and reference cultivars when random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers was used. These results demonstrate that H17 is a new cultivar with improved storability after harvesting.

Laboratory determinations of acoustic and physical properties in Korea Strait sediment were carried out. Sediment sound velocimeter(SSV) was employed to measure the sound velocity of sandy sediment. Distribution patterns of the acoustic and physical properties are controlled by sediment texture. The study area is divided into three provinces(mid-shelf, shelf margin and enough) based on the acoustic and physical properties. This classification matches well with the previous result[14] based on the systems tracks and depositional systems. We suggest a geoacoustic model of the Korea Strait that replacing the old model of Briggs and Fisher[5].

We gamma-irradiated to natural casings from lamb and pork to improve sanitary quality and microbiological shelf stability of sausage stuffed in animal intestine-induced natural casing from lamb and pork. The microbial changes of irradiated casings and the microbial growth of the sausages with gamma-irradiated natural casings were observed. Population of total aerobic bacteria was decreased by gamma irradiation, dependent upon the irradiation dose. The number of microflora in lamb and pork casings was reduced by about 5.5 log cycle at 5 kGy. Population of total aerobic bacteria of sausages stuffed in non-irradiated lamb and pork casing was about 3.6 log CFU/g after just manufacture and was about 7 log after 10 day storage. However, population of total aerobic bacteria of sausages with 3 kGy-irradiated and 5 kGy-irradiated casings was 2.48 and 0.32 log in lamb, and 2.78 and 0.60 log in pork, respectively. Gamma irradiation to animal intestine- induced natural casings was effective and thus, can be used for enhancing shelf life of final products due to reduction of the number of contaminated microflora.
