The imitation processed cheese (IPC), formulated with delactosed non fat dry milk (DENFDM) only, showed the smallest melting area. Calcium caseinate sample showed the largest spread. Satistically protein source as a major ingredient for the IPC yielded significantly different melting areas. In a similar fashion, initial melting temperature was markedly and significantly influenced by protein source. In effect of addition of DENFDM on microstructure of IPC analog revealed that as the fraction of DENFDM was decreased, the network was much more uniform and the fat globules were also better dispersed compared to DENFDM cheese analog. Therefore the results of this study help predict that melting and microstructural characteristics are largely but not solely dependent on the protein source. The DENFDM has a potential beneficial effect as a partial replacement of caseinate in the formation of IPC to characteristic close to processed cheese.

This study was accomplished to investigate the preference of clothing materials and the clothing demand performance for underwear and everyday dress of atopic patients. As this study was the research study by a use of a questionnaire, the finally total 987 copies of the collected questionnaires were used to analyze the data. SPSS was used for the statistical analysis of data. To analyze the data, frequency analysis, percentage, $X^2$-test, reliability analysis, factor analysis, t-test, ANOVA and Duncan's multiple comparisons were used. The results obtained are as follows. In factor analysis for clothing materials and the demand performance which atopic patients favor, the preference factors for underwear materials were classified as pliability/a sense of weight, a sense of cold and warmth, tactility, and elasticity. Those for everyday wear were classified as pliability/surface roughness, a sense of cold and warmth, a sense of weight, and elasticity. And the demand performance factors for underwears were classified as thermophysiology, care convenience, and skin contact. Those for everyday wear were classified as comfortableness and care convenience. In the difference analysis for the preference and the demand performance, Both everyday wear and underwear showed a significant difference for the preference and the demand performance according to gender, age, income, education level, and occupation.

Sports climbing requires more maximum body motion range than any other sport. This study examined what element affects the actions of sports climbers and suggest an ideal pattern archetype to maximize function based on motion. The theoretical background included abstracted elements influencing clothing design by researching the body type of sports climbers and the motion of sports climbing. Along with the characteristic of climbing wear, this study also conducted a comparative analysis of sleeve patterns for sports climbing wear and general sports jackets, abstracting comparative parts that influence sports climbing wear design. To develop the final research archetype, research was done on 107 sports climbers in their 20s-30s that selected the top 3 brands and collected patterns as well. A research archetype was selected based on 3-D virtual clothing and developed into 4 different patterns with different sleeve cap heights. Appearance evaluation and a motion functionality evaluation were then conducted in order to select a final research archetype adequate for sports climbing based on evaluation findings. In addition, this study identified aesthetical problems of the final research archetype produced based on functionality that could suggest an archetype for a climbing jacket that could be visually satisfying through appearance evaluations and motion functionality evaluations.

This study targets adult females and shows the analysis of physical images affecting clothing behavior, satisfaction or dissatisfaction of ready-made clothes, favorite ready-made clothes design, and weight control as well as the result of demographic characteristic influencing clothing behavior. An individual satisfied with their body prefers bright colors and shiny clothes, on the other hand, an individual who is dissatisfied with their body do not like ready-made clothes and favor loose suits. This study shows that individuals not satisfied with their body are afraid of becoming fat and are following a weight control program. The analysis explains that women (who care for their appearance well) pursue aestheticism, superiority, and are more satisfied with ready-made clothes with casual, feminine, and fancy motifs. It also shows that women who have no confidence in their body follow feminine modesty; on the contrary, those who are confident of their body are satisfied with ready-made dresses and prefer a sexy image. As a result, those who do not care about their looks seek feminine modesty, functionality, and easy-management.

This study analyzed users' emotional responses to VI character design through YouTube comments. The researchers applied text-mining to analyze 116,375 comments, focusing on terms related to character design and characteristics of VI. Using the BERT model in sentiment analysis, we classified comments into extremely negative, negative, neutral, positive, or extremely positive sentiments. Next, we conducted a co-occurrence frequency analysis on comments with extremely negative and extremely positive responses to examine the semantic relationships between character design and emotional characteristic terms. We also performed a content analysis of comments about Miquela and Shudu to analyze the perception differences regarding the two character designs. The results indicate that form elements (e.g., voice, face, and skin) and behavioral elements (e.g., speaking, interviewing, and reacting) are vital in eliciting users' emotional responses. Notably, in the negative responses, users focused on the humanization aspect of voice and the authenticity aspect of behavior in speaking, interviewing, and reacting. Furthermore, we found differences in the character design elements and characteristics that users expect based on the VI's field of activity. As a result, this study suggests applications to character design to accommodate these variations.

A program aiming at predicting dynamic characteristics of a Liquid Rocket Engine(LRE) was developed and examined to trace entire LRE operation. In the startup period, transient characteristics of the propellant flows were predicted and validated with hydraulic tests data. An arrangement of each component for the pipelines was based on an operating circuit of open cycle LRE. The flow rate ratio for the gas generator and the main chamber was determined to mimic that of real open cycle LRE. Individual component modeling at its transient was completed and was integrated into the system prediction program. Essential parameters of the component dynamic characteristics were examined in an integrated fashion.

Polyester microfiber fabrics were alcoholysed at 120, 140, and 16$0^{\circ}C$ in 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5% of sodiumglycerolate/glycerol solutions(NaGR) up to 80% and the characteristic decomposition features were compared and discussed with the results of the hydrolysis done by 5% sodium hydroxide solution(NaOH) at 80, 90, and 10$0^{\circ}C$. The resulting activation thermodynamic parameters calculated by the combined use of the Arrhenius equation and the Eyring equation were in NaOH case ${\Delta}H^*$=- 13.89 kcal/mol, ${\Delta}S^*$/=-38.12 cal/mol K, and ${\Delta}G^*$=25.25 kcal/mol and in NaGR case ${\Delta}H^*$=29.81 kcal/mol, ${\Delta}S^*$=-2.29 cal/mol K and ${\Delta}G^*$=30.49 kcal/mol. Since in all cases NaGR-PET system has higher activation thermodynamic parameters, it was concluded that NaGR-PET reaction system is more favorable at high temperatures and occurs in a less selective fashion, in comparison to the NaOH-PET reaction system.

Adolescent girls experience significant breast growth is a significant secondary sexual characteristic development; their breasts are clearly different from adults' in volume, location and shape. This study was designed to understand brassiere wearing conditions and practices of adolescent girls aged between 15 and 18, as well as to identify problems and solutions so that it can serve as basic guidelines to develop patterns and sizes for adolescent brassieres. This researcher first studied brassiere wearing conditions and size fitness of adolescent girls. We analyzed the 439 collected responses from an online survey. The survey questionnaires encompassed brassiere wearing conditions and practices, brassiere size awareness, brassiere design preference, and brassiere purchase behavior. The survey found that 55.8% of the responders did not accurately understand their brassiere sizes, and those who understood their size showed a higher satisfaction and less discomfort than those who did not. This study found a requirement to educate adolescent girls on how to select and wear the right-sized brassieres. It is also necessary to promote different brassiere designs for adolescent girls' size and body shape.
