Ito (Takumi) Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that investigates the structural performance and design methods of steel buildings.

AboutAbout the lab
Uncovering the performance of steel buildings through theory and experiments.
The Ito (Takumi) Lab studies the structural performance and design methods of steel structures, including buildings made of steel frames.
The lab investigates how steel structures behave under random disturbances by combining mathematical theory, numerical analysis, and various structural experiments.
It also develops structural systems for regenerating structures, using hybrid structures that make the most of the properties of each material.
The list of research themes also includes composite structures combining steel, earth, and timber, the use of IoT in building structures, and repair techniques using digital fabrication.
Key terms
- Steel structures
- Buildings and other structures that use steel, such as steel frames, as their skeleton.
- Nonlinear numerical analysis
- A method of using computer calculations to study the behavior of materials and members in which force and deformation are not proportional.
- Composite structures
- Structures built by combining different materials, such as steel, earth, and timber.
ResearchResearch themes
Centered on the structural performance and design methods of steel structures, the lab studies post-disaster repair, extensions, redundancy, connections, and composite structures that combine steel with timber or earth. Its list of research themes covers a wide range of topics, including flexible steel connections, steel plate shear walls, stone wall structures, and damage diagnosis techniques.
