Akinori Komatsubara, Professor
1 student voices
The Komatsubara Lab studies how to make sociotechnical systems that involve people safer and more comfortable. It targets settings where people play important roles, such as manufacturing, transportation and logistics, information and communications, healthcare, and services. Specializing in human life engineering, safety ergonomics, and system safety, the lab draws on the human sciences, including psychology, ergonomics, and behavioral science. Its work includes preventing human error, improving product usability, and proposing ways of living suited to an aging society and an information society.
Shingo Takahashi, Professor
1 student voices
The Takahashi Lab uses systems thinking to study ways of solving complex problems in business and society. It examines how essential factors relate to one another and how they influence the system as a whole. The lab covers a wide range of topics, including learning organizations, consumer behavior, and the mechanisms of innovation. By modeling and simulating social systems, it aims to support people who face these problems.
Yasuhiko Takemoto, Professor
1 student voices
The Takemoto Lab studies how to apply statistical science theory to the management of quality and production in manufacturing. Using data, it aims to innovate management techniques for quality management and production management.
Yoshitaka Tanimizu
1 student voices
Tanimizu Lab studies the design and operation of production systems that make use of ICT. The lab develops mathematical models and algorithms for carrying out manufacturing efficiently while adapting to change. Its areas of specialty include production management, production systems theory, and evolutionary computation.
Hirohisa Hirai
1 student voices
The Hirai Lab studies business analysis using companies' accounting information. Using a wide range of methods such as text mining, the lab investigates how corporate valuation and management accounting should be done. The lab works in a field called accounting informatics, which combines accounting and data analysis.
Shinichi Fukushige, Professor
1 student voices
The Fukushige Lab (Life Cycle Engineering Lab) studies the whole flow from when a product is made until it is reused as a resource. Using information technologies such as blockchain, virtual space, and simulation, the lab designs systems for new circular businesses. The lab also tackles a range of social issues, such as passing on infrastructure inspection skills and operating nursing-care robots.
Masahiko Munechika, Professor
1 student voices
The Munechika Lab studies techniques and systems for improving the 'quality' of products, services, healthcare, and organizations. Using statistical methods and questionnaire surveys, the lab works on making products that match people's sensibilities and on improving safety in healthcare settings. The lab conducts research jointly with hospitals and companies, and places importance on creating systems that can be used in actual settings.
Shunichi Ohmori, Professor
1 student voices
The Ohmori Lab studies the design and improvement of operations in production, logistics, and services. Using engineering approaches, the lab works on topics such as strengthening supply chain resilience and building sustainable logistics systems. The lab also studies data-driven decision making, including demand forecasting and dynamic pricing. The lab takes part in joint research with companies and local governments, as well as international joint research with overseas universities.
Yasuhiko Sato, Professor
1 student voices
Sato Lab works on problems related to the safety and security of infrastructure such as bridges and plants. Its research ranges from "material design," which designs materials such as concrete, to "lifetime design," which aims to keep structures in service for a long time. Through "design engineering," which connects materials, design, and maintenance, the lab works to build durable, long-lasting infrastructure.
Kiyoshi Ono, Professor
1 student voices
The Ono Lab studies the design and maintenance of bridges made of steel (steel bridges). The lab works on bridge structures that use new materials and on developing more rational design methods. The lab is also pursuing research to realize bridges that resist damage even in a massive earthquake. The lab conducts research through both experiments and analysis, with the aim of applying the results to actual bridges and design standards.
