Analogs and extenders should have mouthfeel and chewing characteristics that are similar to the food they are replacing or extending. Instrumental methods can measure some of the physical properties that constitute 'texture' but only sensory methods can provide a complete description and quantification of the textural properties of a food. Instrumental methods and sensory methods for measuring texture are reviewed.

Condition based maintenance(CBM) for the preventive diagnosis of important equipments related to safety or accident in power plant is essential by using the suitable methods based on actual power plant conditions. To improve the reliability and accuracy of the measured value at the minute leak situation, and also to monitor continuously internal leak condition of power plant valve, the development of a diagnosis and monitoring technique using multi-measuring method should be performed urgently. This study was conducted to estimate the feasibility of multi-measuring method using three different methods such as acoustic emission(AE) method, thermal image measurement and temperature difference$({\Delta}T)$ measurement that are applicable to internal leak diagnosis for the power plant valve. From the experimental results, it was suggested that the multi-measuring method could be an effective way to precisely diagnose and evaluate internal leak situation of valve.

In this paper, we present a simple framework to measure BRDF(Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function) values of objects and to render them using the values more realistically. There are lots of BRDF measurement methods, but the methods have been separated from the effective rendering of the values. Therefore, we suggest the framework which includes the BRDF measurement methods of objects and the effective rendering methods of the measured BRDF data. Before measuring the BRDFs, we do light sources analysis, camera calibration and display device characterization. After measuring them, we apply them to the characterized display device for rendering effectively and realistically.

Soil moisture measuring is important for irrigation scheduling of upland crops, estimation of evapotranspiration, and hydrologic modeling. Hence, the comparative study was implemented for the soil moisture measuring instruments, Neutron probe and TDR with soil sampling methods, and the result was represented.

Recently, various daylight evaluation methods for visual environment have been developed; simulation analysis methods, numerical calculation, and data monitoring methods. However, it is impossible for simulation analysis to make real scenes and visualize real images exactly. Also, a numerical calculation is considered as an out of date and time-consuming mean. Therefore, for acquisition of accurate results, many studies often use the monitoring data methods. Especially, most studies regarding discomfort glare are evaluated by measuring the physical quantity of luminance through traditional measuring Minolta Luminance meters as an instrument. But, this method has a difficulty in measuring several points at the same time because of the limitation of spaces and time when mapping. So, this study focused on the potential usefulness of High Dynamic Range photography technique as a luminance mapping tool. In order to evaluate the accuracy of proposed programs such as webHDR, Photomatix and PHOTOLUX, this paper has conducted an experiment by using Canon EOS 5D and NICON Coolpix8400 digital camera.

This study was performed to find effective measuring methods of retention and drainage by comparing traditional measuring methods of Britt jar, Canadian standard freeness tester methods and recently developed RDA-HSF with multi-channel turbidimeter method. At the result, Multi-channel turbidimeter method was useful to measure retention and efficiency of multiple chemical dosing system. A system CSF equipped with the balance recorder was also useful to obtain dynamic drainage information including initial drainage rate and final drainage amount. Therefore, we consider these new measuring systems would be helpful to advance retention and drainage technology.

The workloads of facilities and laborers are important for the capacity planning in a factory. They are always referenced whenever a factory develops a new product, increases the production quantity and makes a plan of new investment. There are many measuring methods for estimating the workload effectiveness of facilities and laborers. In this paper, various measuring methods including survey, work sampling, micro-motion study, data gathering from ERP system and simulation, are analyzed for comparing the accuracy of workload. This case study is conducted in a Korean company that produces semiconductor parts like leadframe and packaging substrate.

Objective : This study was done to clarify ambiguous non-standard weight and measuring units in medical classics. Methods : Using medical classics and research dissertations, we studied the basic definitions of weight and measuring units and the types of non-standard weight and measuring units. We compared non-standard weight and measuring units in the reference literatures, to determine the dose of herbs in the prescriptions. Results : There are three types of units in non-standard weight and measuring units. These are 'Quantity measuring unit', 'Resembrance measuring unit', and 'Eye measuring unit'. And we found historical efforts and progresses for proper ways to convert non-standard weight and measuring units to standard weight and measuring units. Conclusions : This research will be the basic data for the standardization of prescriptions. Additional study was still required for precise weighing and measuring in Korean medicine and pharmacy.

The purpose of this study was to compare the intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of three methods for measuring iliotibial tract length in 40 knees of 20 subjects. The measurements were performed by two examiners and one assistant. The length of the iliotibial tract was measured using three methods: the first used a modified Ober test with an inclinometer, the second used a modified Ober test with a marker, and the third used active adduction test with a marker in the supine position. Each examiner used the three methods in two sessions. For the first method, the inclinometer value was recorded manually. For the second and third methods, Image J analysis software was used to analyze the photographs taken. The intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of the measured value was assessed by means of intra-class correlation coefficients [ICC (3,1)] and the standard error of measurement. The intra-rater reliabilities of the three methods were excellent (ICC=.97, .95, and .94, respectively), and the inter-rater reliabilities of the first and second methods were fair to good (ICC=.64 and .65, respectively). The inter-rater reliability of the third method was excellent (ICC=.88). Our results suggest that the active adduction test is an objective and qualitative measurement method for measuring iliotibial tract length. We recommend that the active adduction test be used for measuring iliotibial tract length in the clinical setting.
