Takaya Yamazato, Professor
0 student voices
The Yamazato Lab approaches communication from outside its conventional framework, with the aim of getting at what communication fundamentally is. The lab works on visible light communication, which uses visible light instead of radio waves, and on underwater optical wireless communication, which sends information through water with blue and green light. Its research also covers communication that deliberately makes use of noise, and semantic communication that draws on machine learning. In visible light communication, the lab studies applications in transportation, such as sending data from LED traffic lights to moving vehicles.
Hiromitsu Awano, Professor
0 student voices
The Awano Lab pursues research that opens up the future of integrated circuits, which underpin the spread of intelligence throughout society. It tackles the topic from two sides: chips that run AI quickly with low power consumption, and EDA that uses AI to automate the design of complex chips. The lab aims to build these into real robot systems, going beyond the boundary between software and hardware to unite the two. Its research is end-to-end, from algorithms to implementation on FPGAs and real chips, and on to control of physical robots.
Satoshi Iwata, Professor
0 student voices
Prof. Iwata's research group studies information security, with a focus on cryptography. Information security is a foundational technology that underpins the safety of information and communications, and cryptography forms its basis. Through research such as security analysis of ciphers and cryptanalysis, the lab aims to contribute to the development of a more trustworthy, secure, and prosperous information society. Cryptographic technology is used in a wide range of fields, from the Internet to automobiles and space development.
Shinji Doki, Professor
0 student voices
The lab studies control of electric motors (motors) based on control theory, and intelligent control of robots. Prof. Doki's research keywords also include pattern information processing for control, signal processing, and modeling, and their applications. Associate Professor Funabora's research keywords are intelligent control, robotics, soft computing, and soft robotics.
Hosei Nagano, Professor
0 student voices
The lab (Nagano Lab) studies thermal energy management spanning Earth and space. Its work covers research on heat and energy aimed at achieving decarbonization, energy-saving and highly efficient thermal control for next-generation spacecraft, measurement and visualization of the movement of gases and liquids inside porous media, and measurement techniques for the thermophysical properties of advanced materials. The lab takes on a wide range of work, from building the fundamental science underlying thermal engineering to applied research. Faculty members, graduate students, and undergraduates from diverse backgrounds, including people who want to start a company and people aiming to become researchers, work together on research.
Kazuhiro Yamamoto, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Combustion Group (Yamamoto Lab) of the Thermal Control Engineering Research Group studies how things burn and how to measure it. Using lasers, the lab measures flames burning in turbulence and makes them visible. It also works on developing technologies to clean fine particles such as soot contained in automobile exhaust. Together with the Thermal Control Group in the same research group, the lab studies the management of thermal energy spanning Earth and space.
Ichiro Naruse, Professor
0 student voices
The Naruse Lab studies technologies that convert biomass, waste, and similar materials into energy efficiently and with a low environmental burden. Using high-temperature reactions such as combustion and gasification, the lab clarifies the underlying mechanisms through experiments and calculation. It tackles problems faced by real facilities, such as ash deposition on boilers, nitrogen oxides and fine particles produced by combustion, and CO2 reduction in ironmaking.
Ruri Hidema, Professor
0 student voices
The Hidema Lab studies the rheology of complex fluids. Complex fluids contain polymers, fine particles, and the like, and their flow is not proportional to the force applied. They appear in many everyday settings, such as daily necessities, food, fluids used in industry, blood, and tears. The lab pursues both basic research that unravels how these fluids flow and applied research that uses complex fluids to solve problems in society.
Eijiro Maeda, Professor
0 student voices
The Biomechanics Lab studies the mechanics of biological tissues such as blood vessels, bone, and skin, and of the cells that make them up. Biological tissues are thought to change themselves so as to restore their original state when the forces acting on them change. The lab aims to measure the mechanical properties of tissues and cells in detail, investigate how forces affect them, and apply that knowledge to medicine and engineering.
Dai Okumura, Professor
0 student voices
The Solid Mechanics Lab (Okumura Lab) studies the mechanical properties of a wide variety of solids, including metals, cellular structures, and hydrogels. It pays particular attention to the unstable deformation behavior that occurs when solids undergo large deformation. The lab works on building mechanical frameworks and developing material models, and uses them to analyze unresolved problems. Assigned students become proficient in mechanics of materials and solid mechanics, while learning a broad range of skills, from the basics of CAE to specialized techniques.
