This study was conducted to mass-produce brown stock optimized by using a high-pressure heating extractor and to use brown stock as a material for developing various products. For these purposes, we attempted to produce standardized brown stock by extracting brown stock using a high-pressure heating extractor and compared it with brown stock extracted by the traditional method in terms of general elements and mechanical and sensory characteristics. With regard to how to prepare optimal brown stock, the best brown stock was that extracted seven times repeatedly by the traditional method, but the method had a large economic loss in terms of material consumption and took a long time in extraction. Thus, considering time and labor, it was concluded that extraction at 120$^{\circ}C$ for 15 hours using a high-pressure heating extractor is the optimal extraction condition in terms of economic efficiency and quality. The results of this study are expected to be useful as a practical material for making brown stock production process more convenient, applying cooks' traditional cooking techniques to mass production, maintaining standardized superior quality and taste, and improving shelf life.

In this paper the Hoek-Brown (HB) failure criterion is integrated into the Holmquist-Johnson-Cook (HJC) concrete material model to reflect the inherent characteristics of field rock masses in LS-DYNA blast modeling. This is intended to emphasize the distinctive characteristics of field rock masses that usually have many geological discontinuities. The replacement is made only for the static strength part of the HJC material model by using a statistical curve fitting technique, and its procedure is described in detail. An example is also given to illustrate the use of the obtained HJC material model. Computation is performed for a plane strain model of a single-hole blasting on a field limestone by using the combination of the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) technique and the multi-material arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (MMALE) method in LS-DYNA.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to prepare and evaluate a natural material extracted from germinated brown rice (GBR). Herein, we evaluated whether the natural material could positively activate the biological effects seen during bone formation, including enhancement of metabolic activity, osteogenesis, and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), one of the growth factors in human osteoblast-like cells. Methods: The natural material was created by a hot water extraction process after being soaked for 2~3 days in tap water and dried at $50^{\circ}C$. The material was characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The biological behaviors of the material were also investigated; we performed tests to assess cell cytotoxicity, metabolic activity, osteogenic markers related to bone formation, and VEGF. Results: The EDX, XRD, and FTIR results for the natural material indicated the presence of organic compounds. The natural material caused positive increases in cell metabolic activity and mineralized bone formation without cytotoxicity. The protein levels in the extract for the $6.25{\mu}g/mL$, $12.25{\mu}g/mL$, $25{\mu}g/mL$, $50{\mu}g/mL$, and $100{\mu}g/mL$ groups were significantly different from that for the control. Conclusions: The GBR-based natural material was easy to prepare and had characteristics of a potential biomaterial. The biocompatibility of this natural material was evaluated using in vitro techniques; our findings indicate that this novel material is promising for agricultural and biological applications.

Decay and mold resistance of zinc borate (ZB) and calcium borate (CB) modified oriented strandboard (OSB) from southern mixed hardwood and southern yellow pine was investigated in this study. Brown rot fungus Gloeophyllum trabeum and white-rot fungus Trametes versicolar were used to examine the decay resistance of the OSB. The OSB test specimens were colonized by brown and white rot fungal mycelium in both the brown and white-rot culture bottles after 8 and 12 weeks, respectively. The wood species and fungus type had the significant effects on the decay resistance. Brown rot decay was evident for all untreated southern pine and mixed hardwood controls. The white-rot decay, however, did not show significant weight loss at both species control samples. The incorporation of ZB and CB composites provides suitable protection against brown-and white-rot fungi. No significant weight loss was observed from the borate treated OSB.

Brown rice was used as material for solid-substrate cultivation of Ganoderma lucidum. The hydration time with cold water appeared to be 10 hours for brown rice, but the final water content was much less than optimum water content(65%). Hot water reduced the hydration time of brown rice, and the water content reached to 65% within 40 mins. From this result, hot water was better than cold water for the hydration of brown rice. We attempted to develop a practically applicable process by combining the soaking and sterilization. The water content of 65% appeared to be the best for the growth of the fungi and production of glucosamine related to the amount of mycelium. The content of free sugar increased far more in brown rice fermented with mycelium than in brown rice which was not fermented. Addition was most suitable 20% when add mushroom-rice to brown rice.

The Rutile - type brown pigments doped with chromium were synthesized. Samples of $Ti_{1-x}Cr_xO_2$ ($0.02{\leq}X{\leq}0.08$) were synthesized by the solid state method. Solid solution limit of Cr contents to the rutile structure and its coloration were studied. Optimum composition was investigated accordingly. The characteristics of synthesized pigments were analyzed by XRD, SEM, Raman spectroscopy and UV. As a result, single phase of Rutile was observed from $1000^{\circ}C$ by XRD. The maximum limit of solid solution was 0.06 mole $Cr_2O_3$. The glazed sample showed brown color, and the value of CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ was $L^*$ 33.27, $a^*$ 10.64, $b^*$ 20.84.

Friction angle and cohesion of rock masses can be estimated from Hoek and Brown failure criterion and then plastic corrections can be applied using Mohr-Coulomb yield function. This study finds that this estimation procedure would not be appropriate for weak rock masses and for cases where low confining stress is expected to develop. A procedure is outlined in this paper for estimating plastic corrections directly from Hoek and Brown material model. Comparative study shows that direct procedure would simulate non-linear failure surface better than indirect procedure especially in the low confining stress regime.

This study showed that the brown stock, which is the base of demi-glace sauce, extracted by using a high pressure heating extractor is more advantageous than that extracted by the traditional extraction method for the mass production. We compared the former with the latter in terms of minerals and free amino acids. The results of this study are summarized as follows. When mineral contents were compared, the brown stock extracted by high.pressure heating extraction showed the tendency of increase in mineral contents in proportion to heating temperature and heating time, but, from extraction temperature of 140$^{\circ}C$, the contents of K, Mg, Na and P decreased with the increase of extraction time. In addition, mineral contents in the brown stock extracted by high-pressure heating extraction were generally lower than those in brown stock extracted by the traditional extraction method. This result was produced probably because materials were added repeatedly in the traditional method. Amino acids contents in brown stock according to the extraction methods were also examined. They increased with the increase in the number of extractions in the brown stock extracted by the traditional method, and those in the brown stock extracted using a high pressure heating extractor increased with the increase in heating temperature and extraction time. The results of this study are expected to be useful as a practical material for the mass production of brown stock products.

This study was conducted to investigate the possibility of using brown rice as a raw material for preparation of sikhe. The ${\alpha}-amylase$ activity of germinated brown rice was much lower than that of germinated barley; however, the extract and its sugar content of extract prepared from germinated brown rice was similar to those of germinated barley. The extract of sikhe prepared with brown rice at $60^{\circ}C$ for 4 hr was similar to that of milled rice for 1 hr. Sikhe prepared with brown rice did not differ from sikhe prepared from milled rice in sweetness, pH and acidity. Sensory evaluation of sikhe prepared with brown rice showed increase in aroma and decrease in texture compared with sikhe prepared with milled rice.
