High hydrostatic pressure was applied to Foxtail Millet Takju to investigate the effects of high pressure on inactivation of microorganisms and enzymes. Total bacteria, lactic acid bacteria and yeast in untreated Takju were $6.8{\times}10^7,\;1.3{\times}10^8\;and\;8.4{\times}10^7\;CFU/mL$, respectively. Total bacterial count in Takju reduced to $2.2{\times}10^5\;CFU/mL$, while lactic acid bacteria and yeast were sterilized completely when heated at $65^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. Lactic acid bacteria and yeast decreased with the increase of treatment pressure, and pressurization of 400 MPa for 10 min at room temperature sterilized completely the lactic acid bacteria and yeast in Takju. Total bacteria were not sterilized with pressurization of even 600 MPa at room temperature. Total bacteria were completely sterilized at $66^{\circ}C/400\;MPa/60\;min\;and\;66^{\circ}C/600\;MPa/10\;min$. Pressurization of Takju caused a partial inactivation of ${\alpha}-amylase$, and after pressurization at 600 MPa for 10 min at room temperature, 73.2% of the original activity remained. The activity of glucoamylase increased with the increase of treatment pressure. Treatment at $66^{\circ}C/400\;MPa/10\;min$ reduced the activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$ by 59.7% and glucoamylase by 20.5%. ${\alpha}-Amylase$ was inactivated to less than 1.2% of the original activity at $66^{\circ}C/600\;MPa/30\;min$.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of various high pressure freezing treatments on the physical properties of pork To compare the effect of freezing on meat quality, atmospheric freezing (AF), pressure and freezing (PF), pressure shift freezing (USF) and pressure assisted freezing (PAF) were conducted at pressure of 100 MPa. Water binding properties, shear force and colour were measured as physical properties of pork PAF showed shorter phase transition time than PSF. Although significant increase (p<0.05) in water binding properties was found only at PAF, meat frozen under hydrostatic pressure environment showed improved water binding properties. However, all high pressure freezing treatment caused significantly increased shear force (p<0.05), especially at PF treatment. In color, all high pressure freezing treatments showed significantly higher color parameters (p<0.05) than AF, whilst no significant differences among high pressure freezing treatments were found (p>0.05). Therefore the result indicated that applied hydrostatic pressure improved functional properties of pork with increasing freezing rate and PAF had more potential benefit than PSF at mild pressure range.

High hydrostatic Pressure was applied to Foxtail Millet Yakju to investigate the effects of high pressure on inactivation of microorganisms and enzymes. Total bacteria, lactic acid bacteria and yeast in untreated Yakju were $1.5{\times}$10$^4$,1.9${\times}$10$^4$ and 1.4${\times}$10$^4$ CFU/mL, respectively. Total bacterial count was reduced to 4.1${\times}$l0$^2$ CFU/mL, while lactic acid bacteria and yeast were sterilized completely in Yakju heated at $65^{\circ}C$ for 15 min. Lactic acid bacteria and yeast decreased greatly with the increase of treatment pressure, and were sterilized completely in Yakju treated at more than 300 ㎫ for 10 min/$25^{\circ}C$. Total bacteria were not completely sterilized with pressurization of even 600 ㎫ at room temperature and reduced to 2 log cycle even at $65^{\circ}C$. Total bacteria decreased by 2∼3 log cycle with the increase of treatment time from 10 to 60 min at $25^{\circ}C$/300 ㎫. Pressurization of Yakju caused a partial inactivation of $\alpha$ -amylase and glucosamylase, and the activities of $\alpha$ -amylase and glucoamylase decreased by 18.1% and 21.1%, respectively at $25^{\circ}C$/600 ㎫/10 min. Activities of $\alpha$ -amylase and glucoamylase decreased with the increase of temperature, and 22.2% and 32.1% of the original activity were remained with the treatment at $65^{\circ}C$/300 ㎫/10 min, respectively. Enzyme activities decreased slightly with the increase of treatment time at $65^{\circ}C$/300 ㎫.

A combined treatment of high hydrostatic pressure and carbonation was used to inactivate pectinesterase (PE) and sterilize microorganisms in Valencia orange juice without major changes in its nutritive components. Quality characteristics of Valencia orange juice, such as microorganisms, PE activity, vitamin C content and color, were evaluated after it was treated with pressure, carbonation-and-pressure, and heat. Quality changes during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$ after the treatments were also investigated. Pressurized orange juice (pressurized at 600 MPa for 10 min at $20^{\circ}C$) showed 7.0% residual PE activity, while the carbonated-and-pressurized orange juice (207 $kPa-CO_2$ gas pressure, pressurized at 600 MPa for 10 min at $20^{\circ}C$) showed 0%. Pressurization at 400 MPa or higher decreased the population of microorganisms in the orange juice to less than 10 CFU/mL. Carbonated-and-pressurized orange juice showed slight decrease in vitamin C content when stored at both $4^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$. While heat-treated ($90^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec) orange juice showed 75% decrease in vitamin C content when stored at $30^{\circ}C$. L value (lightness) and b value (yellowness) of carbonated-and-pressurized orange juice were higher than those of heat-treated orange juice when they were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 30 days.

A newly designed torsion pendulum operating at high pressures and various temperatures has been constructed. The High Pressure Torsion Pendulum(HPTP) is capable of containing gaseous pressure to 690MPa(100, 000psi) and operating at temperatures from-$100^{\circ}C$ to $300^{\circ}C$. A glass fiber braid is installed between two sample holders to accommodateliquid samples. The HPTP was fully automated and computerized using an IBM-AT personal computer to control initiation of oscillation, collect digitized data, and calculate the shear and loss moduli from damped curves, The curing process of an epoxyamine(DGEBA-DDS) system under various pressures up to 124 MPa(18, 000 psi) at $150^{\circ}C$has been successfully carried out and some results are presented.

The present study investigated the effects of processing parameters such as time (10, 20, 30, 40 min), pressure (25, 50, 75, 100 MPa), and the salinity of brine (0~10%(w/v)) on jacopever (Sebastes schlegeli Hilgendorf) in order to establish optimization of the three factors using a high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) machine. To do so, it analyzed the quality characteristics of volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), trimethylamine (TMA), total bacterial counts, dynamic viscoelasticities, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) properties. First, when the time increased to 40 mins, by 10 min intervals, the total bacterial counts in HHP groups under $25^{\circ}C$, 100 MPa, and 4%(w/v) brine were significantly decreased except for the first 10 min in comparison to the control group. In regards to DSC properties, the onset temperature ($T_O$) of the first endothermal curve was significantly reduced. Second, when the pressure level increased up to 100 MPa by 25 MPa increments, the total bacterial counts in the HHP samples significantly decreased for 20 min at 50 MPa or higher. As the pressure increased, G', G" and the slope of tan ${\delta}$ decreased (except for 50 MPa). Third, in regards to the salinities of brine, when the HHP processing was treated at 100 MPa, $25^{\circ}C$ for 20 min, the total bacterial counts of all the HHP groups significantly decreased in comparison to those of the control group. A significant difference was found in the enthalpy of the second endothermic curve in the 6~10%(w/v) (except 7%(w/v)) HHP groups. Therefore, the salinity of the immersion water under the HHP condition was appropriate when it was lower than 6%(w/v). The present study demonstrated that the optimum parameter condition according to/under the condition of the microbial inhibition and economic effects using an HHP would be the reaction time for 20 min, reaction pressure at 100 MPa, and the salinity of 4%(w/v) brine.

This paper develops a relatively comprehensive and sophisticated constitutive model of concrete for finite element analysis of concrete structures. The present model accounts for the hydrostatic pressure sensitivity and Lode angle dependence behavior of concrete, not only in its strength criterion, but also in its hardening characteristics. The implementation is carried out through incorporating the developed concrete model in User Subroutine Material(UMAT) of the general-purpose FE program ABAQUS(v.5.8). It is found that the model can sufficiently predict the hardening as well as the softening behaviour of concrete under high confining pressure.
