Takumi Asakura, Professor
1 student voices
The Asakura Lab studies the phenomena of sound and vibration based on mechanical engineering. The lab develops simulations that predict vibration and sound occurring at scales ranging from cities to fine structures, along with control technologies to suppress them. Because vibration and sound are closely related, the lab investigates techniques for calculating the vibration and sound of structures together, and methods for suppressing both efficiently. The lab also conducts research that incorporates human factors engineering, namely how people perceive and feel vibration and sound, and carries out joint research with outside research institutions.
Hideyuki Taguchi, Professor
1 student voices
Taguchi Lab conducts research aimed at realizing spaceplanes that can travel from an airport to space, and hypersonic passenger aircraft that cross the Pacific in two hours. The research focuses on the shape of vehicles that fly at high speed through the atmosphere, and on hypersonic engines capable of high-speed flight. In collaboration with universities, research institutions, and companies in Japan and abroad, the lab is demonstrating the technologies needed for practical use through flight experiments with small experimental vehicles, engine tests, and more. Prof. Taguchi joined the lab in April 2026, after working on the research and development of hypersonic engines at organizations including the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).
Hiroshi Takemura, Professor
1 student voices
Takemura Lab (Biomechanics Lab) studies the measurement and modeling of human movement, centered on robotics and biomechanics. Together with external medical institutions and others, the lab also carries out research and development of medical and welfare devices. The lab collaborates actively with external research institutions, and some projects involve students going to those institutions to contribute to the research there.
Unregistered Unregistered, Professor
0 student voices
The Unregistered Lab studies thermo-fluid dynamics in systems with interfaces, such as the boundaries between a liquid and a gas or between a liquid and a solid. The research rests on two pillars: developing heat and mass transport technologies under special environments, and developing technologies for transporting and controlling the motion of fine particles in liquids. In heat and mass transport under special environments, the lab focuses on the physics of familiar phenomena such as the movement of droplets on a substrate and the motion of vapor bubbles during boiling. The lab has a wide range of applications in view, from microscale heat transfer to high-performance cooling devices essential for long-term stays in space and other settings.
Takahiro Tsukahara, Professor
0 student voices
The Tsukahara Lab aims to understand, predict, and control turbulence and thermo-fluid transport phenomena. Using simulations on large-scale computers, it investigates how the flow of water and air becomes turbulent, as well as the flow of elastic liquids. The lab's trade name is "Thermo-Fluid Dynamics Lab." Undergraduates who have not yet been assigned to a lab for their graduation research are welcome to visit and consult the lab at any time.
Hiroshi Ogasawara, Professor
0 student voices
The Ogasawara Lab studies high-speed aerodynamics and aerospace vehicle systems, aiming to realize fully reusable space transportation vehicles capable of hypersonic flight. In contrast to most current rockets, which are expendable, the lab uses computer calculations to study methods for recovering and reusing vehicles, as well as the aerodynamic forces and heat that vehicles flying at high speed experience. According to the lab's website, it has stopped accepting new students going on to graduate school from the 2026 academic year. Undergraduates who have not yet been assigned to a lab can visit the lab for a tour at any time.
Hiroshi Okada, Professor
0 student voices
The Okada Lab centers on computational solid mechanics, using computers to analyze how solids deform and how bodies containing cracks fracture. The lab proposes new methods for fracture mechanics analysis and solid mechanics analysis, aiming to contribute to the further advancement of CAE. Graduate students and undergraduate students doing their graduation research study continuum mechanics of solids, fracture mechanics, computer algorithms, programming, and the theory of the finite element method. Research progress meetings and a reading seminar on English-language textbooks are held every week, and the lab's guiding policy is to dig deeply into "why?"
Masanori Hayase, Professor
0 student voices
The Hayase Lab studies fuel cells and copper plating, making full use of microfabrication technology. Building on silicon microfabrication technology, which has developed through semiconductor manufacturing, the lab aims to create micromachines that control chemical reactions and biological organisms. The lab works on advancing the copper plating used for wiring in integrated circuits, and on prototyping ultra-thin fuel cells on silicon substrates. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Hayase Group."
Ryosuke Matsuzaki, Professor
0 student voices
Matsuzaki Lab studies how to form composite materials such as carbon fiber reinforced plastics. By combining simulations that reproduce the forming process on a computer with data obtained from experiments, the lab works on predicting and optimizing forming processes. The lab is also developing new forming methods, such as 3D printing of continuous carbon fiber composites.
Shogo Arai, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Arai Lab (Intelligent Robotics Lab) uses robotics, control theory, machine learning, and image processing to research robot systems that solve social problems. The lab's research centers on the core technologies robots need to handle objects, such as 3D measurement, environment and object recognition, grasp planning, and visual servoing, as well as robot systems that integrate them. The lab also applies this set of technologies to research on biological image recognition and multi-agent systems. The lab builds systems such as automated disassembly of e-waste and bin picking, in which a robot grasps and removes objects from a pile.
