In the study, we determined the optimal ingredient mixing ratio for the preparation of sponge cake containing bamboo (Pseudosasa japonica Makino) leaves. This experiment was designed in according with the D-optimal design of mixture design, which involved 14 experimental points including 4 replicates for three independent variables (sugar 110${\sim}$129%, bamboo leaves 3${\sim}$8%, oil 10${\sim}$25%). The results the F-test, specific gravity, volume and color values (L, a, b) decided a linear model, while the viscosity, hardness and sensory characteristics (color, smell, taste, texture and overall acceptance) decided a quadratic model. The results of our fitness analysis demonstrated that in all characteristic, the probabilities were significant within 0.05%; thus, the models were accepted as appropriate. The response surface and trace plot results demonstrated that increasing amounts of added bamboo leaves induced a reduction in brightness, and increasing redness and yellowness. In addition, increasing amounts of bamboo leaves caused increases in hardness, and thus the softness of the cake decreased. And as the level of added oil increased, softness increased. Cake samples received low sensory evaluation scores when sugar, bamboo leaves, and oil were added above their optimal levels. In the numeric optimization, the optimal ingredient amounts were 121.36% sugar, 4.96% bamboo leaves, and 15.69% oil. The above results demonstrate the feasibility of adding bamboo leaves to sponge cake, and therefore, a bamboo leaves as a functional food.

This study was performed to find the optimum ratio of ingredients for the manufacture of kiwifruit jam. The experiment was designed according to the D-optimal design of RSM (response surface methodology), which included 18 experimental points with 4 replicates for three independent variables (sugar $35{\sim}60%$, pectin $0.1{\sim}1.0.%$, kiwifruit paste $0.37{\sim}0.90%$). The compositional and functional properties of the prepared products were measured, and these values were applied to mathematical models. A canonical form and trace plot showed the influence of each variable on the quality attributes of the final product mixture. By use of the F-test, viscosity, color values (L, a, b), and sensory characteristics (color) were expressed by a linear model, while the L color value and select sensory characteristics (smell, taste, overall acceptance) were also expressed by a quadratic model. The optimum formulations by the numerical and graphical methods, were similar, and with the numerical method it presented as: sugar, pectin, and barley sproutling powder at 49.7%, 0.5%, and 0.6%, respectively. The above results demonstrate the feasibility of preparing kiwifruit jam added with barley sproutling powder, and therefore, the commercialization of a kiwifruit jam marketed as a functional food is deemed possible.

This study examined the optimal ingredient mixing ratio for the preparation of steamed cake containing mugwort (Artemisia princeps var. orientalis) powder. After preliminary studies, the following ingredient ranges were determined; 110~129% sugar, 3~8% mugwort powder, 10~25% oil. Among the different mixture designs, the D-optimal design was chosen for analysis. The results of F-test, specific gravity, viscosity, volume and color values (L, a, b), hardness decided a linear model, while the sensory characteristics (color, taste, texture and overall acceptance) decided a quadratic model. The fitness analysis results showed that in all characteristic, the probabilities were significant within 0.05%; thus, the models were accepted as appropriate. The response surface and trace plot results showed that increasing amounts of mugwort powder decreased the brightness, and increased redness and yellowness. As the level of added oil increased, the softness of the cake increased. Cake samples received low sensory evaluation scores when sugar, mugwort powder, and oil were added above their optimal levels. The optimum formulations by the numerical and graphical methods, were similar, and with the numerical method presented as: sugar, mugwort powder, and oil at 120.7%, 5.1%, and 16.2%, respectively(flour weight basis). The above results demonstrate the feasibility of adding mugwort powder to sponge cake, and therefore, the commercialization of mugwort powder cake marketed as a functional food is deemed possible.

This study was performed to determine the optimal composition of a muffin administered dried burdock powder and oligosaccharide. The experiment was designed base on CCD (Central Composite Design), and evaluation was carried out by means of RSM (Response Surface Methodology), which included 10 experimental points with 3 replicates for the two independent variables burdock powder and oligosaccharide. The experimental muffin was made according to a traditional recipe, except that the flour was partially replaced with dried burdock powder (5%, 15%, 25%) and the sugar was partially replaced with oligosaccharide (25%, 50%, 75%). The compositional and functional properties of the prepared products were measured, and these values were applied to the mathematical models. Using the F-test, volume, height, pH, yellowness, chewiness, resilience, springiness, cohesiveness, taste, and overall quality were expressed as a linear model, whereas lightness, redness, adhesiveness, color, flavor, and overall quality were expressed as a quadratic model. The polynomial models developed by RSM for sensory evaluation, color, flavor, texture, taste, and overall quality were highly effective in describing the relationships between the factors (p<0.01). The estimated response surfaces confirmed that the amount of burdock powder had significant effects on color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall quality (p<0.01), whereas and the amount of oligosaccharide had significant effects on color and texture (p<0.01). Increased amount of burdock powder led to reductions of the sensory scores for color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall quality at all oligosaccharide levels. The optimal mixing percentage of burdock powder and oligosaccharide muffin were determined to be 5.00% and 46.25%, respectively.

This study was performed to determine the optimum ratio of each ingredient in the steamed foam cake with barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) sproutling powder. The experiment was designed according to the D-optimal design of mixture design, which showed 14 experimental points including 4 replicates for three independent variables (sugar 112${\sim}$139%, barley sproutling powder 1${\sim}$8%, and oil 5${\sim}$25%). The compositional and functional properties of test were measured, and these values were applied to the mathematical models. A canonical form and trace plot showed the influence of each ingredient on the mixture final product. The results of F-test, volume, color values (L, a, b), textural properties (hardness, gumminess, chewiness) and sensory characteristics (softness) decided a linear model, while the sensory characteristics (color, smell, taste, overall acceptance) decided a quadratic model. The volume of steamed foam cake was increased by sugar addition, and a negative effect was exerted by barley sproutling powder and oil. L and a of color values increased but the b value decreased with increasing sugar and oil content, whereas barley sproutling powder tended to decrease all color values. The addition of barley sproutling powder also had a positive effect on the textural properties (hardness, gumminess, chewiness). Sensory characteristics (color, smell, softness, taste, overall acceptance) could suffer counter results with the excessive addition of sugar, barley sproutling powder, and oil. The optimum formulations by numerical and graphical methods were similar: sugar, barley sproutling powder, and oil were 130.4%, 4.0%, and 10.7% by numerical method, compared to 130.4%, 4.0%, and 10.7% by graphical method, respectively.

As a research to develop a SCRAM jet engine is actively conducted, a necessity to produce a high-enthalpy flow in a laboratory is increasing. In order to develop the SCRAM-jet engine, stabilized combustion in a supersonic flow-field should be attained, in which a duration time of flow is extremely short. Therefore, a mixing process of breathed air and fuel, which is injected into supersonic flow-fields is one of the most important problem. Since, the flow inside SCRAM jet engine has high-enthalpy, an experimental facility is required to produce such high-enthalpy flow-field. In this study, a detonation-driven shock tunnel was built and was used to produce high-enthalpy flow. Further-more, SCRAM jet engine model equipped backward-facing step was installed at test section and flow-fields were visualized using color-schlieren technique and high speed video camera. The fuel was injected perpendicular to the flow of Mach number three behind backward-facing step. The height of the step, distance of injection and injection pressure were changed to investigate the effects of step on a mixing characteristic between air and fuel. The schlieren photograph and pressure histories show that the fuel was ignited behind the step.

The color image of the brand comes first and is an important visual element that leads consumers to the consumption of the product. To express more effectively what the brand wants to convey through design, the printing market is striving to print accurate colors that match the intention. In 'offset printing' mainly used in printing, colors are often printed in CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key) colors. However, it is possible to print more accurate colors by making ink of the desired color instead of dotting CMYK colors. The resulting ink is called 'spot color' ink. Spot color ink is manufactured by repeating the process of mixing the existing inks. In this repetition of trial and error, the manufacturing cost of ink increases, resulting in economic loss, and environmental pollution is caused by wasted inks. In this study, a deep learning algorithm to predict printed spot colors was designed to solve this problem. The algorithm uses a single DNN (Deep Neural Network) model to predict printed spot colors based on the information of the paper and the proportions of inks to mix. More than 8,000 spot color ink data were used for learning, and all color was quantified by dividing the visible light wavelength range into 31 sections and the reflectance for each section. The proposed algorithm predicted more than 80% of spot color inks as very similar colors. The average value of the calculated difference between the actual color and the predicted color through 'Delta E' provided by CIE is 5.29. It is known that when Delta E is less than 10, it is difficult to distinguish the difference in printed color with the naked eye. The algorithm of this study has a more accurate prediction ability than previous studies, and it can be added flexibly even when new inks are added. This can be usefully used in real industrial sites, and it will reduce the attempts of the operator by checking the color of ink in a virtual environment. This will reduce the manufacturing cost of spot color inks and lead to improved working conditions for workers. In addition, it is expected to contribute to solving the environmental pollution problem by reducing unnecessarily wasted ink.

This paper proposes a six-color separation method of reducing unnecessary usage of colorants based on the limitation of total colorant amount and dot visibility ordering. First, the CIELAB values of input RGB image are estimated through the color-mixing model and compared with pre-calculated CIELAB values corresponding to all combination of CMYKlclm colorants with a constraint of color difference, thereby selecting initial CMYKlclm candidates. Next, the limitation on total colorant amount Is imposed on initial CMYKlclm candidates to remove the excessive amounts of colorants, and then final CMYKlclm candidates are determined by minimizing the usage of light cyan and light magenta in the dark region based on the dot visibility ordering of C, M, Y, K, lc, and lm. Through the experiment, the proposed method is shown to reduce the excessive amount of colorants with preserving good image quality.
