A hydrodynamic numerical model, ESCORT, which enables wetting-and-drying simulation, is developed. The model is verified by applying it at the Mokpo coastal zone together with the MIKE21 model. This paper deals in only 2-dimensional aspects remaining 3-dimensional function for further research. To begin with, MIKE21 model is applied at the whole area where MIKE21 had been applied several times to produce boundary conditions for the main area. Unlike the whole area of uniform grid, main area adopts telescoping grid for ESCORT model and nested grid for MIKE21 model. The results of both model show not only good agreement for the values of water depth and tidal velocity between computed and observed ones, but also plausible wetting-and-drying simulation. However, ESCORT model needs some improvement of efficiency.

EFDC, ESCORT and MIKE21 models are applied at the Gomso Bay to investigate each models' facilities of tidal flat simulation. Comparisons with observation data show that all models simulate hydrodynamic phenomena and tidal flat well. CPU time and WCM are examined to evaluate the efficiency of the models, and the effects of flooding/drying depth and bottom friction are examined to analyze models' facilities of simulating tidal flat. The EFDC model is considered to be fairly good in accuracy, stability and applicability, it is, however, poor in efficiency and its complexity. While the ESCORT model is superior to the EFDC in simulation of tidal flat, it is inferior to the EFDC in CPU time and simulation of bottom friction. The MIKE21 model is excellent in efficiency, but some numerical noise would be detected at low water, not permitting correction of the model.

Applicabilities of two 3-D hydrodynamic models on Chungkye Bay in which tidal flats are well developed were examined. Both EFDC model and ESCORT model with the ${\sigma}$-coordinate showed fairly good results. However, their efficiencies were lowered especially on the tidal flats due to dense vertical grids. This inefficiency could be overcome by using the z-coordinate of the ESCORT model keeping similar accuracy.

The ESCORT model is applied at Mokpo coastal zone to analyze the effect of fresh water discharge released from the gates of the Youngsan River sea-dyke. Applicability and validity of both 2-D and 3-D hydrodynamic modules could be guaranteed by simulating hydrodynamic feature with ebb dominance characteristics. Then, effects of the released discharge on the hydrodynamics are investigated. And analysis of the effects on diffusion phenomena show that 3-D model is essential for such diffusion modelling. Moreover, vertical salinity distributions near the gates are examined, and the influence range of fresh water is also estimated, which shows that dilution of fresh water is going on slowly because of poor flushing.

The probability of target survival is the most important factor in the target assignment, Most of the studies about it have assumed the case of one target and ane weapon type. Therefore, they can not be applied to the real situation. In this paper. the quantity and type of enemy assets of the friendly force are considered simultaneously. Considered defense type is the coordinated defense with no impact point prediction. The objective function is to minimize the expected total survival value of targets which are scattered in the defense area. The rules of aircraft assignment are as follows : first, classify targets into several groups, each of those has the same desired damage level secondly. select the critical group which has the least survival value in accordance with the additional aircraft assignment, and finally. assign the same number of attack assets against each target in the critical group. In this paper, the attack assets, the escort assets, and the defense assets are considered. The model is useful to not only the simple aircraft assignment problem but also the complicated wargame models.
