Some remarks on flatness of morphisms over smooth base spaces
  In this paper we study flatness of the restriction on some special subgerms (e.g. the reduction and the unmixed part) of the total space of a flat morphism over a smooth base space. We give a relationship between reducedness of the total space and that of the generic fibers of a flat morphism over a reduced Cohen-Macaulay base space. Moreover, we study flatness of the composition of a flat morphism over a smooth base space and the normalization of the total space of that morphism.
