In order to investigate the stabilizing effect of nails against sliding, a series of model tests were carried out. The apparatus of model test was designed to perform the model test of soil slope reinforced by nails. The instrumentation system was used to measure the deflection behavior of nails during slope failure. As a result of model tests, the quantity and the occurred position of the maximum bending stress are changed according to the area ratio and the inclination angles of nails. The maximum stabilizing effect against sliding of nails is presented at 0.7$\%$ of the area ratio because the biggest maximum bending stress occurs at this time. But, the stabilizing effect of nails decreases with more than 0.7$\%$ of the area ratio. In the same condition of the area ratio, the stabilizing effect of nails is excellent at -10$^{circ}$ of the inclination angles of nails. The sliding surface can be predicted on the basis of the position of the maximum bending stress in each nails. The shape and depth of sliding surface are changed according to the area ratio and the inclination angles of nails.

This study aimed at verifying the effect of hydroxypropyl cellulose(HPC) treatment on polyethylene glycol(PEG)-treated waterlogged wood for surface stabilizing. This research investigated macroscopic and microscopic appearance, color change, weight change, and dimensional change. And effect of HPC was verified through variance analysis (ANOVA) and least significant difference test(LSD). HPC formed thin layer on the surface of wood specimen, and blocked the pore of tracheid and the gap between the crack. Specimens without deterioration showed no invisible change except HPC 1,000,000 treatment group. Whitening was appeared at the sound surface of HPC 1,000,000 treated wood. Specimens with deterioration showed a little color difference change by external moisture adsorption. Thin layer of HPC on the surface of wood specimen was maintained after the deterioration, and this HPC layer significantly suppressed the weight and dimensional change by moisture adsorption.

This paper presents a field study of the stability of slope collapsed during road construction and proposes a reasonable countermeasure if the current slope is unstable. As a result of slope investigation, it was found that the slope includes five tension cracks and the sliding surface is started from the tension crack and propagated the surface soil layer through weathered rock layer. The slope stability analyses are conducted in case of dry and rainfall seasons. The results indicate that the slope is unstable status. A reinforcement method of slope failure should be selected according to the scale of failure. That is, the scale of slope failure, which is classified small, middle and large size determines the reinforcement method of slope. Since the slope interested in this study is large size failure slope, the reinforcement method to control slope failure is selected stabilizing piles, and seed spray and drainage of surface waterare also selected to remain the factor of safety. The SLOPILE (Ver. 3.0) program is applied in order to do stability analysis of slope reinforced by piles. As the result of analysis, the slope reinforced by a row of piles shows the stable state. It is clearly confirmed that the stabilizing of piles can improve the stability of slope.

The dispersion of pigment particles is important because it is capable of increasing the color strength, contrast, and transmittance of color-LCD products. Pigment dispersion properties are very important factors for the quality of LCD color filters. The chemical structure of polymeric dispersants for pigment is important to improve dispersion stability and prevent aggregation or flocculation of pigment in organic or aqueous systems. Polymeric dispersants should contain both anchoring group that interacts with pigment surface and stabilizing group that provides steric stabilization. Moreover, the molecular weight and composition of block copolymer have the an effect on pigment dispersion. In this study, adequate dispersants, block copolymers containing (2-dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate as anchoring group and oligo(ethylene oxide)methyl ether methacrylate as a stabilizing group were designed and synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization in order to prepare well-defined structure, molecular weight and composition.

This paper presents a sliding mode controller based on Ackermann's formula and applies it to stabilizing a two-wheeled mobile inverted pendulum in equilibrium. The mobile inverted pendulum is a system with an inverted pendulum on a mobile cart. The dynamic modeling of the mobile inverted pendulum was established under the assumptions of a cart with no slip and a pendulum with only planar motion. The proposed sliding mode controller was based upon a class of nonlinear systems whose nonlinear part of the modeling can be linearly parameterized. The sliding surface was obtained in an explicit form using Ackermann's formula, and then a control law was designed from reachability conditions and made the sliding surface attractive to the equilibrium state of the mobile inverted pendulum. The proposed controller was implemented in a Microchip PIC16F877 micro-controller. The developed overall control system is described. The simulation and experimental results are presented to show the effectiveness of the modeling and controller.

All models of dynamical systems invariably have some measure of uncertainties associated with some of their dynamics. The recent approaches to establish robustness of stabilizing feedback control against the possible uncertainties have a serious limitation, that is their applicability only to the systems that satisfy the matching conditions. Such conditions are rarely met in general applications. If a particular system satisfies the matching conditions, the addition of an actuator will destroy the satisfaction of such conditions. In this paper, we develop robust control algorithm for uncertain multivariable systems in which the matching conditions are not necessarily met. We empoly Lyapunov's second method to derive robust stabilizing controllers which guarantee asymptotic stability against prescribed uncertainties. The derivation consists of transforming the original uncertain system to controllable canonical form and constructing a constant switching surface by designing the closed-loop characteristics as a function of the uncertainties. Numerical examples are discussed as illustrations.

Relationships between the plating condition and the plating rate of the deposition film for the electroless plating of Co-Cu-P alloy were discussed in this report. The result obtained from this experiment were summarized as follow ; The optimum bath composition was consisted of 0.8 ppm thiourea as a stabilizing agent. Composition of the deposit was found to be uniform after two hours of electroless plating. Plating rates of nickel-catalytic surface and zincate-catalytic surface were found to be very closely equal, but the plating time of nickel-catalytic surface took longer than that of the zincated-catalytic surface.

In this paper, a multi-input multi-output(MIMO) integral variable structure system with an integral-augmented sliding surface is designed for the improved robust control of uncertain multivariable system under the matched persistent disturbance. To effectively remove the reaching phase problems, the integral augmented sliding surface is proposed. Then for its design, the eigenstructure assignment technique is introduced to. To guarantee the designed performance against the persistent disturbance, the stabilizing control for multi-input system is also designed to generate the sliding mode on the integral sliding surface. The stability of the global system together with the existence condition of the sliding mode are investigated and proved for the case of multi input system in the presence of uncertainty and disturbance. The reaching phase is completely removed in proposed MIMO VSS by satisfying the two requirements. An example and computer simulations will be present for showing the usefulness of algorithm.

How far of natural regeneration of the city and improvement on the urban environment will be possible in the replanting on the impermeable surface? The replanting of what kind of form will be obtained in order to realize it? The regeneration of the nature is possible, if it can be realized at the thin soil layer in which the result of being equivalent to the natural soil function. Using the light artificial soil with the water retentiveness, it is possible that green on the artificial ground reinforces the green skeleton of the city. The green of artificial ground improves the thermal ambience of the city and demonstrates stormwater runoff depression effect. It is necessary to built the landscape which continues with the surrounding green. Ecologically stabilizing green has the high amenity. The development of replanting technology of the artificial ground which fosters the city culture is desired.
