A collection efficiency of cyclone is influenced by cut-size and slope of grade efficiency curve. It has been recognized that the collection efficiency is improved when the cut-size is reduced. However, effects of the slope have never been studied so far. In this study, we analyze a relationship between slope of grade efficiency and collection efficiency in two-stage cyclones. In single stage cyclones, higher slope cyclones have high efficiency. On the contrary to single stage cyclone, collection efficiency of two-stage cyclone have the maximum value when the first cyclone has a lower slope and second cyclone is high.

Slope reliability analysis and risk assessment for spatially variable soils under rainfall infiltration are important subjects but they have not been well addressed. This lack of study may in part be due to the multiple and diverse evaluation indexes and the low computational efficiency of Monte-Carlo simulations. To remedy this, this paper proposes a highly efficient computational method for investigating random field problems for slopes. First, the probability density evolution method (PDEM) is introduced. This method has high computational efficiency and does not need the tens of thousands of numerical simulation samples required by other methods. Second, the influence of rainfall on slope reliability is investigated, where the reliability is calculated from based on the safety factor curves during the rainfall. Finally, the uncertainty of the sliding mass for the slope random field problem is analyzed. Slope failure consequences are considered to be directly correlated with the sliding mass. Calculations showed that the mass that slides is smaller than the potential sliding mass (shallow surface sliding in rainfall). Sliding mass-based risk assessment is both needed and feasible for engineered slope design. The efficient PDEM is recommended for problems requiring lengthy calculations such as random field problems coupled with rainfall infiltration.

A vegetative filter strip (VFS) is one of the best management practices (BMPs) to reduce pollutant loads. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of VFS in dense upland field areas. The study areas are agricultural fields in the Maedae (MD), Gaa (GA), and Jaun (JU) watersheds, where severe sediment yields have occurred and the Korean government has designated them as non-point management regions. The agricultural fields were divided into three or four clusters for each watershed based on their slope, slope length, and area (e.g., MD1, MD2). To assess the sediment trapping (STE) and pesticide reduction efficiency (PRE) of VFS, the Vegetative Filter Strip Modeling System (VFSMOD) was applied with three different scenarios (SC) (SC1: VFS with rye vegetation; SC2: VFS with rye vegetation and a gentle slope in VFS range; and SC3: VFS with grass mixture). For SC1, there were relatively short slope lengths and small areas in the MD1 and GA3 clusters, and they showed higher pollutant reduction (STE>50%, PRE>25%). For SC2 and SC3, all clusters in GA and some clusters (MD1 and MD3) in MD show higher pollutant reduction (>25%), while the uplands in JU still show a lower pollutant (<25%). With correlation analysis between geographic characteristics and VFS effectiveness slope and slope length showed relative higher correlations with the pollutant efficiency than a area. The results of this study implied that slope and slope length should be considered to find suitable upland conditions for VFS installations.

This study focused on the sediment reduction effects of VFS (vegetative filter strip) systems for the general characteristics of uplands in Korea. General conditions of upland fields were investigated through national scales of annual agricultural statistics. 7-15 % of slope with loam soil was the dominant types of uplands, and the hydrologic soil group feature usually belong to Type B. The common sizes of uplands were bigger than 0.1 ha and less than 0.2 ha, and 86.2 % of them account for less than 1.0 ha. With this information, 0.1 ha, 0.5 ha, and 1.0 ha of uplands with various shapes and 7-15 % of slopes were considered for the VFS system simulations. 20 mm, 40 mm, and 100 mm of daily precipitation were applied. As a result, the trapping efficiencies of VFS systems were obtained 37.4~100 % for 7 % slope and 18.1~98.0 % for 15 % slope of the less than 1.0ha of uplands. As rainfall increased, sediment loads also increased with slope and slope length increase. Also as size and slope of uplands and slope length increased with VFS length decrease, the trapping efficiency decreased for the same amount of rainfall. The optimum lengths of VFS systems for the givien upland conditions were suggested based on the modelling results with condition of VFS length less than 20 % of upland areas.

Distribution-free estimation methods are proposed for slope, $\beta$ in the simple linear regression model. In this paper, we suggest the point estimators using the sequential slope based on sign test and Wilcoxon signed rank test. Also confidence intervals are presented for each estimation methods. Monte Carlo simulation study is carried out to compare the efficiency of these methods with least square method and Theil´s method. Some properties for the proposed methods are discussed.

A floating-type wave power pump is a device which sends air into water by using wave power. The floating-type wave power pump has the new configuration composed of a curved surface reflection board, a slope, and phase plates. As a result of a water-tank experiment it turned out that the floating-type wave power pump with a curved surface reflection board and a slope raised power and efficiency in the wide wavelength waves. The result of a marine experiment was also preferable. The floating-type wave power pump sends air into the sea by using wave power, so it can be used for the improvement of marine environment. In addition, the floating body constituted of a curved surface reflection board, a slope, and phase plates, is effective as a device to utilize the energy of a wave. Therefore, it can be widely used for a wave power generation, pumping up deep seawater.

When a slope tractor works on the slope land, it travels usually along the contour and slope line. In that case, the efficiency of work generally decreases and the safety of the operator caused by the overturn of the tractor should be considered. Maintaining the tractor body being horizontal during the travel is crucial to solve problems. To overcome such a problem, an automatic leveling control system for slope tractor has been developed. The system composed of sensor for measuring rolling and pitching inclination of the slope tractor chassis, controller, hydraulic control system and mechanism. The limit angle of the leveling control was set up to be ${\pm}15^{\circ}C$ for rolling, ${\pm}7^{\circ}C$ for pitching. The proposed control and hydraulic power system was implemented to the prototype slope tractor. This paper shows results about development of the automatic leveling mechanism and response properties for slope tractor.

노천광산에서 사면설계는 안정성과 경제성 측면에서 동시에 접근하여 결정해야 한다. 또한 일반 도로나 철도 연변의 사면과는 달리 대부분 지보나 보강없이 굴착해야 하기 때문에 사면각도가 가장 중요한 설계 변수이다. 본 연구에서는 인도네시아 파시르에 위치한 노천채광방식의 대규모 석탄광산 사면에 대하여 안정성 측면에서의 사면 각도 및 한계사면높이를 결정하였으며 이러한 설계가 가지고 있는 불확실성을 보완할 수 있는 계측 및 계측자료 해석을 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 사면각도(Overall Elope angle) $30^{\circ}$를 유지하는 경우 안전율 1.5를 확보하는 최대개발심도는 $353{\sim}438m$로 계산되었으나 강도정수에 대한 민감도분석결과를 고려할 때 사면높이는 300m를 초과하지 않는 것이 바람직하다. 또한 변위계측자료에 대한 역변위속도 분석 결과가 현장사면 사례와 잘 일치하여 이 방법을 통해 사면의 불안정성 및 파괴시기를 대략적으로 예측할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser(VCSEL)는 짧은 공진기(cavity)와 여러 층의 distributed Bragg reflector(DBR)층을 거울로 사용하기 때문에, edge-emitting lasers(EELs)와는 달리, 광출력 및 변환효율 등의 예측이 쉽지 않다. 그 주된 원인은 VCSEL에서는 Fabry-Perot 레이저와는 달리, 각각의 DBR 거울 층들이 손실을 가지고 있기 때문으로 이에 따라 상/하향광출력 비나 변환효율을 계산해 내는 데에 어려움이 있다. 그러나 전달 행렬 방법(transfer matrix method, TMM)을 이용하면, VCSEL과 같은 여러 층을 갖는 구조에서의 성능 지수를 정확히 계산할 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 전달 행렬 방법을 이용하여 VCSEL의 구조 변화에 따른 문턱이득, 문턱전류 밀도 및 변환효율을 구하였으며 문턱전류 및 변환효율 모두를 고려한 VCSEL의 최적 구조 설계 기법을 제시하였다.
