The expansion and advancement of the meat product market have increased the demand for fermented sausages. A typical method for manufacturing high-quality fermented sausages is using a starter culture, which improves the taste, aroma, and texture. Currently, the starter culture for manufacturing fermented sausages is mainly composed of microorganisms such as lactic acid bacteria, yeast, and fungi, which generate volatile compounds by the oxidation of fatty acids. In addition, protein decomposition and changes in pH occur during the fermentation period. It can positively change the texture of the fermented sausage. In this review, we discuss the requirements (improving food safety, the safety of starter culture, enzyme activity, and color) of microorganisms used in starter cultures and the generation of flavor compounds (heptanal, octanal, nonanal, hexanal, 2-pentylfuran, 1-penten-3-ol, and 2-pentanone) from lipids. Furthermore, quality improvement (hardness and chewiness) due to texture changes after starter culture application during the manufacturing process are discussed.

Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a critical component of soil health and is crucial in mitigating climate change by sequestering carbon from the atmosphere. Accurate estimation of SOC storage is essential for understanding SOC dynamics and developing effective soil management strategies. This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing the spatial distribution of SOC storage in South Korea, using bulk density (BD) prediction to estimate SOC stock. The study utilized data from 393 soil series collected from various land uses across South Korea established by Korea Rural Development Administration from 1968-1999. The samples were analyzed for soil properties such as soil texture, pH, and BD, and SOC stock was estimated using a predictive model based on BD. The average SOC stock in South Korea at 30 cm topsoil was 49.1 Mg/ha. The study results revealed that soil texture and land use were the most significant factors influencing the spatial distribution of SOC storage in South Korea. Forested areas had significantly higher SOC storage than other land use types. Climate variables such as temperature and precipitation had a relative influence on SOC storage. The findings of this study provide valuable insights into the factors influencing the spatial distribution of SOC storage in South Korea.

The traditional image of hydraulic excavator started to change in two ways since 1990. First, post-heavy equipment's visual image was new waves to traditional image of heavy, strong, and wild. They are the negative aspect that excavators have. Another movement of getting rid of its negative image can be found in late-heavy equipment, which was intended to adapt traditional and positive, but off negative images. In 1990s, the design trend is moving from warm/hard to warm/soft, and KOBELCO can be exceptional example that went even further, gone up to cool-soft image. KOBELCO specially aimed 'post- excavator image' strategy, which has been successful. Image of cabin as a human space changed little bit further than outside image. Each company tried to differentiate the design of cabin focusing on its safety. Following paragraphs show specific trend of image change in form, colour, texture, and the composition. Major visual image change in form tries to follow the image of cars and home appliances which are showing the movement from tough and hard image to soft one. Structural change on local image shows the movement from angular edge to edgeless and the movement of cabin's pillar C placed to back of the equipment with gentle inclination. All of these movements are the result of effort to improve traditional excavator's negative image, that top structure is assembled separately, to positive ones. Today's tendency about its color becomes important to apply two different colour styles. Each style has brightness and tone comparison. As an enormous power convey system, it was in common that its brightness comparison was useful because of the alarm of its damage possibility. However, as its colour control and its design have been emphasized gradually, the tone comparison takes a part in an important role, too. As an example, there is an occasion that these comparisons are compromised simultaneously. In the respect of its image creation, its texture treatments make the tendency of being the same as passenger cars. It is caused from its development of the manufacture techniques of from the fabrication method in small business to the press method in big firm. Further, it is also because of its improvement of painting & coating skills. It may prohibit the reflection effect from solar rays. In the point of view of its visual images, it is recognized the prominent tendency that its composition has been gradually decreased. Lots of windows and the frames tends dark-colour as a whole. It is more preferred to have one colour image, but except KOBELCO and HITACHI. As well, there is another high-tendency to improve its standard treatments, especially for its corner and texture treatments.

This study was intended to investigate intertextuality expressed in fashion; intertextuality within fashion as sex, T.P.O., texture, and coordination and intertextuality between fashion and other genre like animation, music, film and technology. Intertextuality obtained by mixing the masculine and feminine text, coordinating various element without regarding T.P.O., texture has contributed to expending aesthetic realm and redefining the aesthetic value of traditional fashion design. The influence of animation, music, film on fashion and the interaction between these genre and fashion integrated high-class fashion and street-fashion, created the multicultural hybrid. Moreover according to the change of lifestyle the fashionable technical clothing was needed and developed. The intertextual tendency in the 21st-century fashion has given the new possibility of fashion design.

LLAH(Locally Likely Arrangement Hashing) is a method which describes image features by exploiting the geometric relationship between their neighbors. Inherently, it is more robust to large view change and poor scene texture than conventional texture-based feature description methods. However, LLAH strongly requires that image features should be detected with high repeatability. The problem is that such requirement is difficult to satisfy in real applications. To alleviate the problem, this paper proposes a method that improves the matching rate of LLAH by exploiting together the brightness of features. Then, it is verified that the matching rate is increased by about 5% in experiments with synthetic images in the presence of Gaussian noise.

The purpose of this paper is to apply Stephen C. Pepper's contextualism to architecture: to interpret the former in the light of architectural theory, and ultimately to liberate architecture from the Western 'Idea' and return it to its context. The major concepts of Pepper used in the paper are quality, texture, spread, change, fusion, strand and context. Pepper's contextualism makes us realize that architecture cannot be separated from its context where human beings, history, neighborhood, and nature are all interpenetrating, and create a quality. Contextualism thus teaches us to make an effort to understand the region where we belong, and to create an architectural device that interrelates form and function of an architecture with its space-time environment, or its strand, texture and context.

Towards the second half of 20th century the fashion market has become increasely fragmented reflecting the pluality of cultures. As a result style no longer had time to accrue individuality and so people lost interest. In the aftermath of this fashion has turned its atten-tion to its materials for inspiration and inno-vation. Taking their inspiration for new working designers have began to explore diverse materials and expressive techniques of tex-ture. Textural expression can change the im-age of a garment even on with the same structural design. This study is to present the crinkle express-ive technique of texture through the applied examples in contemporary fashion and related backgrounds. The result of this study testified the import-ance of texture as plastic element through various techniques of crinkle; 1) creasing technique is reminiscent of the delphos of Fortuny by modern materials 2) twisting tech-nique is that finished garment is twisted and crumpled by hand 3) shirnking technique is recreated method that is crushed and tied for granting the human touch to the material.

In this paper, a segmentation-based coding technique as applied to video sequences is proposed. A proposed method separates an image into contour and texture parts, then the visually-sensitive contour part is represented by chain codes and the visually-insensitive texture part is reconstructed by a representative motion vector of a region and mean of the segmented frame difference. It uses a change detector to find moving areas and adopts variable blocks to represent different motions correctly. For better quality of reconstructed images, the displaced frame difference between the original image and the motion compensated image reconstructed by the representative motion vector is segmented. Computer simulation with several video sequences shows that the proposed method gives better performance than the conventional ones in terms of the peak signal to noise ratio(PSNR) and compression ration.

A Korean seasoned meat product, seasoned bulgogi was developed in processing and packaging for improved convenience and extended shelf life. The optimal process conditions were found to consist of aging for $20{\sim}30$ hours at $5^{\circ}C$ and air heating for 20 minutes at $210^{\circ}C$ Aging of 24 hours could attain soft texture with little change in pH, color and total aerobic bacterial count. Appropriate drip level could be achieved at air heating of 20 minutes at $210^{\circ}C$, while the air heating at $180^{\circ}C$ could not give suitable level of texture. Modified atmosphere packaging of 60% $CO_2$ and 40% $N_2$ could preserve the product significantly better compared to control of air package and vacuumed package.

Recently, the use of structure compound waterproof agent (hereinafter referred to as 'SCWA') that is used when manufacturing concrete for concrete structures, increases in quantity. However, while it is expected that the SCWA that is mixed in the concrete inside can significantly affect the change of physical properties that lift the internal force of a structure. This study has been conducted through an experiment for the effects of cement hardener on the formation of microscopic texture, and newly generated hydrates from that result were not confirmed in the present experiment. It was found that at the hydrate reaction it has the property that can be hardened within the limit of pore diameterar a specific size rather than there is the internal gap filling capacity due to generating other hydrates.
