Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important staple foods in Korea and the consumption of brown rice is increasing annually. The objective of this study is to investigate the physicochemical, hydration and textural properties related to eating quality of cooked brown rice by using glutinous, semi-glutinous, four non-glutinous and four colored varieties. The moisture, protein and total dietary fiber contents of brown rice are shown in the range of 11.1~12.6%, 6.6~8.7% and 6.28~12.40%, respectively. The amount of water uptakes for brown rice during the hydration has shown significant differences. The glutinous variety of Boseogchal indicate the highest water absorption levels by reaching $0.38gH_2O/g$. The hardness of hydration for Seolgaeng is distinctively lower than those of the other brown rice varieties. According to the textural characteristics of cooked brown rice when using the Tensipresser, the hardness of Boseogchal, Baegjinju and Seolgaeng all exhibit the lowest values out of ten varieties and the highest levels of adhesiveness.

This study carried out to evaluate the hydration heat analysis and fundamental characteristics such as air content, slump, compressive strength and dry shrinkage according to concrete with premixed cement, ternary concrete and OPC concrete for using concrete with premixed cement. The results of experiment are founded that concrete with premixed cement have sufficient performances such as workability, compressive strength and dry shrinkage. Also, the results of hydration heat analysis are founded that concrete with premixed cement have more performance than ternary concrete and OPC concrete at a point of view for the quality control such as thermal crack reducing and economic benefit. Therefore, it is desirable that concrete with premixed cement should be used to rise durability performance and convenience of maintenance.

In this study, the characteristics of strength development and hydration heat on high volume fly ash concrete(HVFAC) was experimentally investigated. Two levels of W/B were selected. Seven levels of fly ash replacement ratios and two levels of silica fume replacement ratios were adopted. In the concrete mix, the water content of $125kg/m^3$ was used, which is less than that of usual water content. As a result, it appeared that the compressive strength gradually decreased with increasing fly ash replacement ratio at the early age, but the difference of strength up to replacement ratio of 50% was little at the age of 91 days because of the pozzolanic reaction of fly ash. The effect of hydration heat reduction on the concrete was affected by the fly ash replacement ratio. When the replacement ratio was over 30%, the reduction efficiency of hydration heat was large.

This study is conducted to investigate the effect of phase change materials (PCM) on hydration heat and strength characteristics of cement mortar. Two types of Barium and Strontium-based PCMs were used in this study and the addition ratio of each PCM to the cement mortar ranged from 1% to 5% by cement weight. Flow test, semi-adiabatic temperature rise test, compressive strength and flexural strength test were carried out to examine the PCM effect on heat and mechanical properties of cement mortar. Test results indicated that PCMs used in this study were effective to control hydration heat of cement mortar, and Barium-based PCM slightly reduce flow value. The compressive and flexural strength of cement mortar with PCM decreased with increasing the adding mount of PCM. The prediction model for compressive strength of cement mortar with different addition levels of PCMs are suggested in this study.

This study investigated the fluidity, heat of hydration, setting time, strength development, and characteristics of hydration and pozzolanic reactions of high-strength high-volume ground granulated blast-furnace slag(GGBFS) blended cement pasts with the water-to-binder ratio of 20% by experiments, and analyzed the effects of the replacement ratio and fineness of GGBFS on the hydration and pozzolanic reaction. The results show that, in the high-strength mixtures with low water-to-binder ratio, the initial hydration is accelerated due to the "dilution effect" which means that the free water to react with cement increases by the replacement of cement by GGBFS, and thus, strengths at from 3 to 28 days were higher than those of plain mixtures with ordinary Portland cement only. Whereas it was found that the long term strength development is limited because the hydration reaction rates rapidly decreases with ages and the degree of pozzolanic reaction is lowered due to insufficient supply of calcium hydroxide according to large replacement of cement by GGBFS. Also, the GGBFS with higher fineness absorbs more free water, and thus it decreases the fluidity, the degree of hydration, and strength. These results are different with those of normal strength concrete, and therefore, should be verified for concrete mixtures. Also, to develop the high-strength concrete with high-volume of GGBFS, the future research to enhance the long-term strength development is needed.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of facial skin parameters (hydration, lipid and pH) on forehead and cheek according to Ayurvedic constitution classification of Vata, Pitta and Kapha. The condition of hydration, lipid and pH in the facial skin was measured using non-invasive diagnostic technique. The collected data was analyzed with the SPSS 16.0 windows statistical program. Design: Eighty-nine Korean female subjects were recruited for this study and the average age of them was $19.9{\pm}0.84$ years. Three groups by the Ayurvedic constitution were classified by questionnaire. Results: There was a significant difference in hydration, lipid and pH according to Ayurvedic constitution. The measurement of hydration on the face depending on the constitution were shown in the order of Pitta, Kapha and Vata (p<0.001). The measurement of lipid on the face depending on the constitution were shown in the order of Kapha, Pitta and Vata (p<0.001, p<0.01). The measurement of pH on the face depending on the constitution were shown in the order of Kapha, Pitta and Vata (p<0.01). Conclusion: Facial skin surface seemed to be dependent on Ayurvedic constitution classification in Korean. These findings indicated that Ayurvedic constitution classification might be a useful esthetic treatment for caring facial skin in the future.

Nowadays, due to the development of industrial and civil engineering technology, enlargement and diversification of concrete structures are being tried. At the same time, the hydration heat generated during the construction of large structures lead to thermal crack, which is occurs causing a problem that durability degradation.

In this study, the hydration reaction and strength characteristic of cement mortar with spent coffee ground(SCG) was investigated. As a result of the study, it was found that as the firing temperature of the SCG increased, the mass loss due to the combustion of organic matter increased, but the density increased. In addition, when the SCG were mixed, SCG interfered with the hydration reaction and the compressive strength was significantly lowered. On the other hand, the coffee grounds ash(SCG_Ash) calcined at 800 ℃ showed a hydration reaction and a compressive strength equivalent to or higher than that of OPC mortar.

Cold weather concrete is the concrete which is used during construction under low-temperature' environment, and this kind of concrete has to be taken care not to be frozen in early ages of setting-hardening, It is specified in the Concrete Standard Specification(2003) as 'the cold weather concrete must be used on the weather condition under the average daily outdoor temperature below $4^{\circ}C$.' In this research, the mechanical characteristics and hydration heat on the cold weather concrete using high early strength portland cement were studied. As a result, the excellent quality was obtained and high early strength portland cement is expected to be used widely as the cold weather concrete.
