Toru Takahashi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Computational Mechanics Lab studies computational mechanics, which is grounded in mathematics, physics, and computer science. It explores the foundations of analysis and design based on partial differential equations, and integrates them with AI and machine learning and with quantum computing. With real-world applications and contributions to industry in mind, its top priority is building general-purpose, fundamental ideas and methodologies.
Tsuyoshi Inoe, Professor

The lab studies the motion and vibration of rotating machines and of machines made up of many connected parts. Focusing on targets such as rocket turbopumps and automotive turbochargers, it builds models that describe their motion and develops analysis methods. In addition to devising new actuators and dampers, it works on technology that detects the internal state of a machine from its vibration and predicts failures. The lab carries out many industry-academia collaborations and joint research projects, and welcomes students interested in going on to a PhD.
Koji Mizuno, Professor

The lab studies automobile collisions and the mechanisms by which people are injured in them. With the goal of realizing "safer cars," it analyzes the mechanisms of injury in traffic accidents and researches and develops crash safety technologies that prevent injuries. All of its research uses computer simulation and is carried out in collaboration with external organizations. In addition to research on protecting occupants and pedestrians, it also analyzes fractures at the top of the femur (hip fractures) that occur in falls.
Tadayoshi Aoyama, Professor

The lab studies robots that use intelligent media and AI and machine learning. It is pioneering new technologies that freely manipulate time, space, scale, and human skills, aiming at applications in medicine, biotechnology, and sports. It develops systems that support micromanipulation of cells under a microscope, as well as a fabric robotic suit that conveys tactile sensations to the body. Its stated vision is to erase the boundaries between "humans and machines" and between "physical space and cyberspace," and to create a future society in which people and technology are integrated.
Ichiro Takeuchi, Professor

The Takeuchi-Taji Lab studies AI and machine learning from both theoretical and practical perspectives. To advance “data-driven” science and technology, which aims to make new discoveries by analyzing large amounts of data, the lab focuses on developing AI and machine learning methods. In manufacturing, life science, and materials science, the lab conducts research that incorporates AI and machine learning through joint research with companies and researchers in each field. The lab also works with a team at the RIKEN Center for Advanced Intelligence Project.
Takayuki Tokoroyama, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Tokoroyama Lab, building on tribology (the study of surfaces, contact, friction, wear, and lubrication), researches how to give machine surfaces new functions. The lab aims to understand phenomena that occur at surfaces and contact interfaces and to connect that understanding to solutions for societal challenges in materials, lubrication, energy, mobility, and medicine. It works on creating carbon-based thin films with low friction and long life, observing wear particles, and conducting friction tests in high-temperature, high-pressure environments. Through research, the lab also places importance on developing people who can find and think through problems on their own and solve them in cooperation with others.
Shintaro Itoh, Professor
0 student voices
The Itoh-Azuma Lab studies how to understand and control the behavior of fluids from an engineering standpoint, at scales ranging from the microscopic world of molecules to the size of spacecraft. The lab runs research projects related to improving the energy efficiency of automobiles, next-generation semiconductor processing, information devices, and the development of new medical devices. Building on mechanical engineering, the lab also works in fields that combine it with new materials development, information technology, and biotechnology.
Kenji Fukuzawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Fukuzawa Lab studies sensing engineering, which creates new technologies through "measuring." The lab develops technologies for measuring with high precision, measuring with ultra-small sensors, and measuring intelligently. It also incorporates advances in information science such as machine learning and AI, and conducts joint research with labs in the Graduate School of Informatics. Its applications are wide-ranging, including precision machines such as hard disks, automobile engines, artificial joints, DNA analysis chips, and micromachines.
Takayuki Hoshino, Professor
0 student voices
The Hoshino-Maruyama Lab aims to understand the functions of living organisms through engineering technologies that control shape. The lab studies how to rebuild and extend biological systems by applying, in an engineering way, physical phenomena shared by the autonomous movement and computation mechanisms of living organisms. Based on the science of nano- and microstructures and on biological information processing, the lab investigates how biological functions are formed. It applies the results to tissue regeneration engineering and to the development of interfaces that connect with living bodies.
Taku Nonomura, Professor

The Fluid Dynamics Lab studies fluid dynamics for realizing next-generation aircraft, from environmentally friendly aircraft to aircraft for planetary exploration. By measuring, modeling, and controlling flow phenomena involved in flight, the lab aims to improve aircraft and other transport vehicles. Its work includes measurement that reconstructs flow fields from multiple measurements using machine learning, flow visualization using functional molecules, and research using computer simulation and special wind tunnels.
