Core/shell structured composite metal oxides of Fe2O3/MgO were prepared by thermal decomposition of Fe(acac)3 adsorbed on the surface of MgO cores. The morphology of the composites conformed to that of the MgO used as the cores. Broad powder X-ray diffraction peaks shifted toward larger d, large BET surface area (∼350 m2/g), and the size of crystalline domains in nano range (4 nm), all corroborate to the nanocrystallinity of the Fe2O3/MgO composite which was prepared by using nanocrystalline MgO as the core. By use of microcrystalline MgO as the core, microcrystalline Fe2O3/MgO composite was prepared, and it had small BET surface area of less than 35 m2/g. AFM measurements on nanocrystalline Fe2O3/MgO showed a collection of spherical aggregates (∼80 nm dia) with a very rough surface. On the contrary, microcrystalline Fe2O3/MgO was a collection of plate-like flat crystallites with a smooth surface. The nitrogen adsorption-desorption behavior indicated that microcrystalline Fe2O3/MgO was nonporous, whereas nanocrystalline Fe2O3/MgO was mesoporous. Bimodal distribution of the pore size became unimodal as the layer of Fe2O3 was applied to nanocrystalline MgO. The macropores in a wide distribution which the nanocrystalline MgO had were absent in the nanocrystalline Fe2O3/MgO. The decomposition of CCl4 was largily enhanced by the overlayer of Fe2O3 on nanocrystalline MgO making the reaction between nanocrystalline Fe2O3/MgO and CCl4 be nearly stoichiometric. The reaction products were environmentally benign MgCl2 and CO2. Such an enhancement was not attainable with the microcrystalline samples. Even for the nanocrystalline MgO, the enhancement was not attained, if not with the Fe2O3 layer. Without the layer of Fe2O3, it was observed that the nanocrystalline domain of the MgO transformed into microcrystalline one as the decomposition of CCl4 proceeded on its surface. It appeared that the layer of Fe2O3 on the particles of nanocrystalline Fe2O3/MgO blocked the transformation of the nanocrystalline domain into microcrystalline one. Therefore, in order to attain stoichiometric reaction between CCl4 and Fe2O3/MgO core/shell structured composite metal oxide, the morphology of the core MgO has to be nanocrystalline, and also the nanocrystalline domains has to be sustained until the core was exhausted into MgCl2.

Cocoa bean husk is an important by-product of the cocoa industry. This study was conducted to measure the changes in the quality characteristics of sausage with added cacao bean husk powder (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2%; ascorbic acid 0.2%) at 4℃ for 15 days. The total polyphenol, total flavonoid, DPPH, and ABTS⁺ radical scavenging activity of sausages increased with the addition of cocoa bean husk powder (p<0.001). As the amount of added cocoa bean husk powder increased, quality deterioration characteristics such as pH increase, redness discoloration, lipid oxidation, protein degradation, and texture change during storage were decreased (p<0.05). In particular, 1% sausage was shown to inhibit TBARS and VBN, similar to ascorbic acid-added sausage. In terms of sensory characteristics, the 0.5 and 1% sausages received the highest score for overall preference. Therefore, we concluded that addition of 1% cocoa bean husks to sausages improved their storage characteristics and palatability.

In this study, we investigated the joint effects of message framing (profit vs. loss) and source type (celeb vs. general) on the persuasive effectiveness of mass media campaign to prevent drunk driving. As a result of conducting an experimental study on 218 motorcycle drivers in Vietnam, the main effects of message framing were not significant, but the interaction effect with the type of information source consistently influenced the attitude toward the advertisement, the drunk driving prevention, and the behavior intention Specifically, it is more persuasive to send a message by a general model rather than an celebrity when the loss framing method is used while it is more persuasive to send a message by a celebrity model than a general model when the gain framing is used. This study therefore provided valuable information and practical implication to the National Traffic Safety Committee of Vietnam for establishing a campaign to prevent drunk driving. In addition, this research also has valuable theoretical implication because it examines the effect of drunk driving prevention campaign on the attitude toward not only advertisement and the drunk driving prevention but also the behavior intention.

The optical character recognition (OCR) is a technique to extract and recognize texts from images. It is an important preprocessing step in data analysis since most actual text information is embedded in images. Many OCR engines have high recognition accuracy for images where texts are clearly separable from background, such as white background and black lettering. However, they have low recognition accuracy for images where texts are not easily separable from complex background. To improve this low accuracy problem with complex images, it is necessary to transform the input image to make texts more noticeable. In this paper, we propose a method to segment an input image into text lines to enable OCR engines to recognize each line more efficiently, and to determine the final output by comparing the recognition rates of CLAHE module and Two-step module which distinguish texts from background regions based on image processing techniques. Through thorough experiments comparing with well-known OCR engines, Tesseract and Abbyy, we show that our proposed method have the best recognition accuracy with complex background images.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of Jeung-pyun containing 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10% Rudbeckia laciniata L. powder. In this study, increase in the content of Rudbeckia laciniata L. powder led to an increase in pH, hardness, adhesiveness, chewiness, and gumminess while moisture of Jeung-pyun had decreased. Scanning electron microscopy analysis showed that the pores in Jeung-pyun merged leading to a decrease in the number of pores, while the pore size increased along with the increase in R. laciniata L. content. In the sensory evaluation tests, Jeung-pyun with 5% R. laciniata L. powder showed the best results. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of Jeung-pyun increased with the addition of R. laciniata L. powder. Based on these results, we conclude that R. laciniata L. has good quality characteristics and antioxidant activity, making it a good ingredient for Jeung-pyun.

As crimes frequently occur on the street, the spread of CCTV is increasing. However, due to the shortcomings of passively operated CCTV, the need for intelligent CCTV is attracting attention. Due to the heavy system of such intelligent CCTV, high-performance devices are required, which has a problem in that it is expensive to replace the general CCTV. To solve this problem, an intelligent CCTV system that recognizes low-quality images and operates even on devices with low performance is required. Therefore, this paper proposes a Saying CCTV system that can detect threats in real time by using the AWS cloud platform to lighten the system and convert images into text. Based on the data extracted using YOLO v4 and OpenPose, it is implemented to determine the risk object, threat behavior, and threat situation, and calculate the risk using machine learning. Through this, the system can be operated anytime and anywhere as long as the network is connected, and the system can be used even with devices with minimal performance for video shooting and image upload. Furthermore, it is possible to quickly prevent crime by automating meaningful statistics on crime by analyzing the video and using the data stored as text.

This study examines how macro-economic conditions, fashion momentum, and inter-genre competition affect movie genre's popularity, thus shaping fashion trends in the feature film market in Korea. Using panel data analysis of genre-specific audience sizes with 6 genre cateories and 132 monthly time points, we found that favorable economic conditions generate the fashion trend in the action/crime genre, while the deterioration of the economic conditions leads to the decline of action/crime genre. The finding implies that economic situations influence cultural consumers' psychological states, which in turn shape the fashion trend in certain direction. Furthermore, we found that the action/crime genre has a greater fashion momentum and its competitive power is stronger than other genres, suggesting that this genre has longer fashion cycle even if other genres rise to the top in their popularity. We argue that such enlengthened fahion cycle and competitive stength of the action/crime genre are associated with its breadth of niche width and audience loyalty. Scholarly and practical implications are discussed.

최근 소비전력 구제 및 $CO_{2}$ 발생량 구제 등으로 인하여 에너지 절약형 제품에 대한 요 구가 점증하고있어 핵심부품인 열교환기의 효율 향상은 숙명적인 과제라 할 수 있다. 에어컨에 사용되고 있는 응축기와 증발기(condenser/evaporator)는 대부분이 핀-튜브(fin-tube)형의 직교 류형 열교환기 (crossflow heat exchanger)이다. 이와 같은 열교환기의 성능에 영향을 미치는 인자들은 크게 핀과 튜브로 구성되는 기하학적인 인자와 공기부와 냉매부로 나뉘어지는 물리적인 인자로 나눌 수 있다. 이 글에서는 핀-튜브형 열교환기의 설계시 고려하여야 할 기하학적 인자와 물리적 인자에 대하여 기술하고자 한다.
