The characteristics of radial thickness of ice jam at the center part of channel bends were analyzed briefly in this paper. Jam thickness in channel bends increases both toward the inner bank, and dowmstream. For this study, slope at the jam's underside was assumed to be liner with similarity of radial slope of bed in alluvial bends. Radial slope at the jam's underside in floating ice elements was estimated using the force equilibrium theory in the radial direction. The eqution which can be estimated the radial slope of ice jam was suggested using Falcon and Kennedy's bed layer theory. Experimental data, which were measured at the center part of cross-section in a single 180-degree bend, were compared to the calculated values using the suggested equtions. The result shows that the calcultated values were smaller than the measured ones. Ot is considered that the estimated value of shear stress in the radial direction may be smaller than the actual and two-layer model may be not suibable for alluvial bend flow.

A optimal reinforcement in the joint rock slope excavation adjacent to an existing tunnel would be influenced by excavation distance from the tunnel, slope angel, and joint conditions but has been empirically determined so far. In this study, large scale model tests were conducted to find out the relationship between load translation on the excavation surface and bebavior of the tunnel according to excavation steps of the jointed rock slope. Consequently, two main parameters, joint dip and sloped angle were investigated in those model tests. From the test results, it was found that tunnel deformation was the largest one when the excavation of joints located closer to the tunnel crown or invert. Stability of the slope and the tunnel were varied in a certain excavation stage related to the angle of slope. In the future, based on results of this study the reinforcement method for the tunnel and slope safety in a jointed rock mass will be demonstrated.

Two dimensional numerical model of high-order accuracy is developed to analyze complex flow including transition flow, discontinuous flow, and wave propagation to dry bed emerging at natural river flow. The bed slope term of two dimensional shallow water equation consisting of integral conservation law is treated efficiently by applying quasi-steady wave propagation scheme. In order to apply Finite Volume Method using Fractional Step Method, MUSCL scheme is applied based on HLL Riemann solver, which is second-order accurate in time and space. The TVD method is applied to prevent numerical oscillations in the second-order accurate scheme. The developed model is verified by comparing observed data of two dimenstional levee breach experiment and dam breach experiment containing structure at lower section of channel. Also effect of the source term is verified by applying to dam breach experiment considering the adverse slope channel.

To examine the soil reinforcement by the shrub with shallow root systems for slope stability, we developed insitu apparatus for direct shear test and conducted the insitu field tests for Lespedeza cyrtobotrya, a representative revegetation species for artificial hillslopes. The insitu field tests were conducted for two different soil conditions (the rooted soils and non-rooted soils) and we then compared the experimental values with those calculated from the Wu model. The results showed that the soil reinforcement derived from the insitu field tests ranged from 0.01525 to 0.1438 $kgf/cm^2$ while the one calculated from the Wu model ranged from 0.1952 to 0.2696 $kgf/cm^2$. Our finding suggests more field tests are needed to collect the related parameters in the model application thereby predicting the reliable soil reinforcement by the shrub root systems.

In this study, 2D finite volume model, which can apply to the mixed meshes that is effective to treat the complicated topography such as a natural river, is developed. To do so, an algorithm for finding the neighbouring cell of a computational cell is introduced, and fluxes are computed using the HLLC approximate Riemann solver at each interface between a computational cell and it's neighbouring cells. Moreover, in order to numerically treat the bed slope which has important effect on the balance between flux gradients and sourte terms, different formula to compute the bed slope for rectangular and triangular mesh are applied. The developed model is applied to analyze dam-break in an experimental channel with $90^{\circ}$ bend and Malpasset dam-break in France. The two cases consist of mixed meshes and the suggested method is validated for the experimental channel and natural channel by comparison with the experimental data, field data and computed results.

Recently, the study of the moving sliding mode in the variable structure control is in progress ac-tively. The conventional time-invariant sliding model control can\`t guarantee the sliding mode in the reaching phase, which is robust against the uncertainty. But with the time-varying method, the controller makes the states track the desired trajectories and keeps the sliding mode. Nevertheless, the piecewise continuous method of the past still has the reaching mode. Thus we propose the continuously moving sliding surface by the fuzzy algorithm. The proposed algorithm is made of the fuzzy rule considering both the error and the error velocity, and may apply to the entire phase plane without sacrificing sliding mode. Especially the proposed scheme can rotate tot he slope-decreasing direction, needless to say rotating to the slope-increasing direction. For showing that the proposed controller guarantees the sliding model and ensures the robustness, we apply the proposed method to the two-link robot manipulator simulation.

In this study, the program was modified by adding the empirical formula of EurOtop (2018) to enable calculation of wave overtopping on armoured slope structures in the FUNWAVE-TVD model using the fully nonlinear Boussinesq equation. The validity of the modified numerical model was verified by comparing it with CLASH data and experiment data for the rubble mound structure. This model accurately reproduced the change in wave overtopping rate according to the difference in the roughness factor of the armoured block, and well reproduced the rate of decrease in wave overtopping rate due to the increase in relative freeboard. The overtopping rate of the armoured slope structures showed significant differences depending on the positioning condition of the armoured blocks. When Tetrapods were placed with regular positioning, the overtopping rate increased significantly compared to when they were placed with random positioning, and it was consistent with when they were placed with Rocks. Meanwhile, when rocks were placed in one row, the wave overtopping rate was greater than when rocks were placed in two rows, which is believed to be due to the influence of the roughness and permeability of the structure's surface.

In the slope stability analysis and design, Limit Equilibrium Method (LEM) and Shear Strength Reduction technique (SSR) are mainly used. Both methods are able to perform two and three dimensional analysis. SSR is considered to be more sensitive and more reasonable than LEM by many researchers. However, in practice LEM is still widely used because of the increase of analysis time and complexity of the model in SSR. In this study, three dimensional analysis of the protruding rock slope is performed by SSR in order to study the effects of protruding length using rock slope FLAC 3D. In this study, as results of analysis variations of the safety factor have been studied according to slope angle, slope height, the soil strength, protruding slope length projected variables. The results show that the factor of safety as more affected by the shapes of the protruding rock slope than the rock strength.

A physically-based, distributed hydrologic model ANSWERS is described and its test results with two small watersheds near the Banweol reservoir are presented. The sizes of the watersheds are 270 ha and 477 ha, respectively. The smaller one has a mild topography with 40 percent forest area. The other has a steeper slope and 87 percent forest area. The model parameters were calibrated using observed runoff data and used for storm runoff simulation. The simulated peak discharges were in good agreement with the data. The model underestimated the recession parts of hydrographa as compared to the observed ones.

This paper studied cogging torque reduction effect for sloping notch applied two notches on stator teeth. We have confirmed accuracy of FEM(Finite Element Method) through comparison previous model using asymmetric notch for experiment and 3D FEM results, and then cogging torque comparison of previous model and sloping notch model. Also the sloping notch model has been modified to step-sloping notch model to consider manufactur. The modification method of sloping notch changed the degree of slope of notch (a)(Notch(a) sloping Deg) and the degree of Slope of notch (b)(Notch(b) Sloping Deg). When Cogging torque is case of minimum, Notch (a) Sloping Deg is $-12[^{\circ}]$ and Notch(b) Sloping Deg $12[^{\circ}]$. In this case, cogging torque was about 23.9[mNm]. Cogging torque of previous model is about 40.8[mNm], so sloping notch model is less than previous model by 41.42[%]. Also, if sloping notch model is changed to step-sloping notch model, cogging torque of step-sloping notch model is about 24.82[mNm], Therefore the difference between the two cogging torque is about 3.85[%], so step-sloping notch model can be applied when considering manufacture.
