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.
Mitsuyoshi Akiyama, Professor
1 student voices
The Akiyama Lab conducts research to improve the safety of infrastructure structures, such as concrete bridges. The lab studies methods to make structures, as well as road and railway networks, less prone to failure and longer-lasting even when multiple factors such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and corrosion (multi-hazard) occur together. Using both experimental and analytical approaches, the lab aims to realize safe and secure infrastructure.
Mitsu Okamura, Professor
1 student voices
The Okamura Lab studies the properties of ground and soil, aiming to build a society that is resilient to disasters. In addition to academic research in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering, the lab works to clarify phenomena occurring in the field through field surveys and on-site experiments. The lab investigates the causes of ground-related disasters, such as levee damage caused by heavy rain and liquefaction damage caused by earthquakes, and conducts research that leads to countermeasures. The lab also puts its research results to practical use in cooperation with the national government, local governments, and private companies.
Takahito Mikami, Associate Professor
1 student voices
The Mikami Lab studies natural disasters that occur in coastal areas, such as tsunamis and storm surges. By combining field surveys, hydraulic model experiments, and numerical models, the lab works to clarify what actually happens in disasters and to predict damage. The lab also conducts research that supports better evacuation behavior, taking into account local topography and the characteristics of evacuees.
Akinori Morimoto, Professor
1 student voices
The Morimoto Lab studies transportation and land use in regional cities. Its themes relate to urban planning, including promoting public transport, compact cities, and TOD (transit-oriented development) strategies. The lab also works on issues such as traffic impact assessment, traffic safety, and population projection and urban shrinkage.
Yoh Sasaki, Professor
1 student voices
The Sasaki Lab studies how to create rich landscapes and spaces through landscape and design. Focusing on regional cities and hilly and mountainous areas, such as Gujo-Hachiman in Gifu Prefecture and Miyada Village in Nagano Prefecture, the lab conducts place-based surveys and research. Based on the idea that a lab is not an organization but a “place,” people from various backgrounds gather to engage in research, surveys, and community development practice.
Tatsuo Nozaki, Professor
1 student voices
The Nozaki Lab studies how mineral resources on the seafloor and on land are formed. Using geochemical methods, the lab examines seafloor mineral resources such as seafloor hydrothermal deposits and manganese nodules, as well as land-based ore deposits formed by similar mechanisms. Studying how ore deposits form also helps reveal changes in past Earth environments. The research combines fieldwork, research cruises, microscope observation, and chemical analysis.
