For developing natural antibacterial agents from Houttuynia cordata Thunb., antibacterial effects of volatile flavor component using various bacterial sp. were tested. Extraction from Houttuynia cordata Thunb. by using SDE (Simultaneous steam Distillation-Extraction) showed strong antibacterial activities against Vibrio and Bacillus genus, such as Vibrio. cholerae, V. parahaemolyticus, V. vulnificus, Bacillus. cereus, and B. subtilis. Then chemical compositions of leaf and stem were analyzed. The contents of crude protein, lipid, and ash in stem were less than those of leaf, but fiber contents were higher than those of leaf. Among the amino acids, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, and arginine were higher than those of other amino acids. Linolenic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid, and palmitic acid were major fatty acids. Major minerals of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. were potassium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, zinc, and copper. Especially, in the case of potassium, it was highest.

In this study, the influence of eccentricity on bearing capacity of strip footing has been investigated by the model tests using the carbon rods, the upper bound method of limit analysis, and Meyerhof method of the limit equilibrium method. In applying the upper bound, the failure mechanism based on model tests was used. There was good agreement between the result of model tests and the upper bound method of limit analysis, but Meyerhof method yielded low bearing capacity and underestimated the effect of eccentricity on bearing capacity. Besides, the influences of footing width, embedment depth and base friction on the bearing capacity have been examined.

In this study, quality characteristics of three different kinds of Gat Kimchi, added with Cheonnyuncho fruit (C-fruit) water extract, Cheonnyuncho cladodes (C-cladodes) water extract, and without Cheonnyuncho water extract (control group), were investigated during storage for 80 days at $5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. In terms of mineral content of Gat Kimchi, C-fruit group showed higher calcium and zinc contents than the control group, whereas Cheonnyuncho groups showed higher iron content, and C-cladodes showed higher potassium content than the control group. The pH was mostly higher in Cheonnyuncho groups than in the control group until 40 days of storage, whereas the pH of the C-cladodes group significantly decreased after 60 days. On the other hand, titratable acidity showed the reverse tendency during storage. Hunter's color L, a, and b values all increased during the storage period. The hardness value was significantly higher in Cheonnyuncho groups than in the control group after 40 days of storage, and hardness value of the C-fruit group was significantly higher than those of the other groups after 80 days of storage. In terms of sensory evaluation, there was no significant difference between the control group and Cheonnyuncho group during fermentation. As a result, the study suggests that addition of C-fruit extracts increase nutrition and function of Gat Kimchi during storage.

밭작물 중 양파와 마늘은 높은 노동투하시간, 노임의 상승, 복잡한 수거 과정 등으로 최근 재배면적이 감소하는 추세이다. 밭농업 활성화 방안으로 생산비 절감과 작업 속도 향상을 위한 수확기계 개발 연구로 줄기절단기가 개발되었다. 이 연구는 줄기절단기 예취날의 설치각이 절단부하에 미치는 영향을 분립체 해석 기법으로 분석하고자 하였다. 실험에 사용한 시뮬레이션은 EDEM으로 인장탄성계수, 전단탄성 계수, 중첩길이, 입자 반경 및 질량, 상대속도를 이용하여 충돌시 힘을 해석하고 인장 및 전단강도, 한계, 결합 길이를 통해 입자간 결합을 설정할 수 있다. 시제품으로 설계된 줄기절단기의 치수를 활용하여 프로그램 상에서 줄기 절단 시뮬레이션을 진행하여 절단부하 결과를 얻도록 하였고 칼날 설치각을 30도, 45도, 60도로 변경하여 각각의 부하를 분석하여 경향성을 파악하고자 하였다. 실험에서 사용한 프로그램은 EDEM 2.7.1 Academic Research 버전이며 시뮬레이션을 진행한 PC의 사양은 Intel(R) $Core^{TM}$ i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz, Memory 16.0GB이다. 줄기 절단 시뮬레이션에 적용시킨 줄기 모델은 마늘의 조건을 적용시켜 직경 1mm의 입자로 이루어진 지름 12mm, 높이 214mm의 원통형 모델이며 60.32N의 최대절단력을 가지고 있다. 줄기절단기는 2개의 회전날을 가지고 있으나 좌우대칭을 적용하여 절반에 대한 해석으로 하나의 회전날로 절단을 하도록 줄기 모델은 4조로 하여 3열을 140mm 간격으로 위치시켰다. 줄기절단기의 칼날은 반경 350mm로 회전하며 진행속도는 1.65m/s, 회전속도는 1680rpm으로 작업하도록 하였다. 시뮬레이션은 0.5초의 시간에 대해 해석하도록 하였으며 0.003초 간격으로 칼날에 가해지는 힘을 구하여 저장하도록 하였다. 시뮬레이션 해석시간은 약 116시간이었으며 설치각별 시간에 따른 칼날에 가해지는 압축력 값과 그래프를 얻을 수 있었다. 대부분의 시간에서 절단이 이루어지지 않으므로 0의 값을 나타내었으며 절단이 이루어지는 시점에 절단부하가 나타났다. 결과 해석을 위해 그래프의 피크 값들을 이용하였으며 그 중 상위 6개의 값으로 분석하였다. 30도, 45도, 60도의 설치각에 따른 절단부하의 평균 값은 각각 105.4N, 160.5N, 215.9N으로 나타났다. 설치각에 따른 절단부하의 경향성은 유의수준은 3.93%로 각각의 차이가 유의미하게 나타났으며 상관계수는 0.489로 증가하는 경향이 보였다. 그러나 $R^2$는 0.2394로 낮은 값을 보여 데이터 처리 방법의 개선과 적절한 회귀 모델의 적용이 필요하다. 향후 포장시험을 진행하고 복합적으로 분석하여 경향성을 자세히 분석하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study was to perform a functional components analysis and investigate the physical properties of powders made from the stems or fruit of freeze-dried Cheonnyuncho cactus (Opuntia humifusa). The functional components analysis showed that the stem and fruit powders han vitamin C levels of 42.14 mg and 105.21 mg, respectively. The stems powder contained more lutein than the fruit powder. The fruit powder contained more vitamin C than the stem powder. The SDF (soluble dietary fiber) and IDF (insoluble dietary fiber) in the stem powder were 45.24% and 22.15%, respectively, which were higher then the values for the fruit powder. The stem and fruit powders contained 19.30 mg/g and 25.10 mg/g of crude saponin, respectively. The pH of the stem and fruit powders was 5.34 and 5.07, respectively, both indicating low acidity. The L, a and b values of the stem powder color were 78.28, -3.71, and 19.19, respectively. The L, a and b values of the fruit powder color were 55.56, 24.84, and -3.18, respectively. The stems powder had a higher bulk density, water holding capacity, and swelling power than those of the fruit powder, but water-retaining capacity of the stem powder was lower than that of the fruit powder. In addition, the stems powder had a higher viscous material content and water uptake compared to the fruit powder. Based on the above results, we determined that Cheonnyuncho (Opuntia humifusa) powder had potentially useful functional components and physical properties.

The generalized Hoek-Brown failure criterion, the strength parameters of which are determined by using the GSI index, is an empirical nonlinear failure criterion of rock mass and has been widely employed in various rock engineering practices. Many rock engineering practitioners, however, are still familiar with the description of the strength of rock mass in terms of friction angle and cohesion. In addition, almost all rock mechanics softwares incorporate the simple linear Mohr-Coulomb function. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a tool to implement the Hoek-Brown function in the framework of the Mohr-Coulomb criterion. In this study, the use of upper-bound solution of limit analysis for bearing capacity of a strip footing resting on the ground surface is proposed for the estimation of the equivalent friction angle and cohesion of rock mass incorporating the generalized Hoek-Brown failure criterion. The upper-bound bearing capacity is expressed in terms of friction angle by use of the relationship between tangential friction angle and tangential cohesion implied in the generalized Hoek-Brown function. The friction angle minimizing the upper-bound bearing capacity is taken as the equivalent friction angle. Through the illustrative implementations of the proposed method, the influences of GSI, $m_i$ and D on the equivalent friction angle and cohesion are investigated.
