Masaaki Miyatake, Professor
0 student voices
The Miyatake Lab studies fluid-lubricated bearings, which support shafts with fluids such as air and water, and non-contact levitation devices that use vibration. Alongside clarifying the characteristics of bearings, the lab applies them to high-precision positioning mechanisms and machine tools. In recent years, it has also worked on self-lubricating plain bearings based on urushi lacquer, a natural resin, as the base resin. On the lab's website, the lab is introduced under the name "Yoshimoto-Miyatake Lab."

Hiroshi Kobayashi, Professor
0 student voices
The Kobayashi Lab is the lab of Professor Hiroshi Kobayashi, who specializes in intelligent mechanical engineering, assistive technology, image processing, robotics, and mechatronics. The lab commercializes its research and development results as products. The "Muscle Suit" was developed and commercialized independently by the lab, and Innophys Co., Ltd., a Tokyo University of Science startup, was founded to commercialize and sell it. The research section on the lab's top page lists topics such as motion analysis, binary cycle power generation, swallowing robots, active walkers, and space toilets.

Hiroshi Gotoda, Professor
0 student voices
The Gotoda Lab studies reacting flows, in which flow, heat and mass diffusion, and chemical reactions interact with one another, with the aim of understanding and modeling their complex nonlinear dynamics. From the perspective of complex systems mathematics, the lab also aims to put its findings to engineering use, including the development of detection and active control systems. Through this research, the lab hopes to contribute to creating mechanical systems in new areas of the environment and energy fields.

Ryuzo Hayashi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Hayashi Lab studies vehicles and transportation, building on mechanical dynamics, which deals with the motion of machines and objects, and control engineering, which is used to achieve target behavior. Aiming to realize vehicles and transportation that are kind to the planet and to people, the lab pursues research shaped by social demands. Recently, it has focused on technology development for next-generation transportation systems, such as vehicle control technology to reduce traffic accidents and human-machine interface devices for eco-driving support. The lab is also actively engaged in research for autonomous vehicles, which are moving toward practical use.

Takuya Hashimoto, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Hashimoto Lab studies robotics and measurement technologies in areas such as human-robot interaction, medical care and welfare, and sports. On the lab's website, research is divided into four categories: “Human-Robot Interaction,” “Medical & Welfare Engineering,” “Sports Engineering,” and “Variety Pack.” The top page of the lab's website carries the phrase “Be the first penguin!!”

Kuniharu Ushijima, Professor
0 student voices
The Ushijima Lab studies mechanics of materials in order to use materials without waste and safely. Combining numerical simulation with fabrication by 3D printer, the lab works on the design and development of lightweight structures. For thin-walled lightweight structures such as lattices and honeycombs, the lab analyzes stiffness, strength, and other properties by computer and builds theoretical models to evaluate their properties. The lab also prints test specimens with a 3D printer and verifies the results through experiments.

Hitoshi Ishikawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Ishikawa Lab studies flows around axisymmetric bodies such as disks and spheres, as well as the control of flow separation on wings. The lab also works on flow control using a fluid whose viscosity changes with light, and on simulations of flow around groups of trees. In joint research with JAXA, the lab also studies noise from propulsion systems and particle flow inside jet engines.

Masayuki Arai, Professor
0 student voices
The Arai Lab conducts analytical and experimental research on mechanics of materials, elasticity, plasticity, damage mechanics, and interface mechanics. The lab's keyword is "materials technology for coexisting with natural disasters," and developing this technology is its major research goal. The lab works on damage assessment of components used at high temperatures, such as gas turbines, and on developing testing machines that measure the strength of thin coatings.

Soichiro Fujimura, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Fujimura Lab researches the development of medical devices and diagnostic and treatment support technologies using numerical analysis and AI. Its research field is fluid engineering (computational fluid dynamics analysis), and its research keywords also include biomedical engineering and neurosurgery. Lecturer Soichiro Fujimura also serves as a lecturer in the Advanced Medical Information Technology Research Division at The Jikei University School of Medicine. Lecturer Fujimura's research record includes a study using numerical analysis of coil embolization for cerebral aneurysms, and the development of an AI-based support program for unruptured cerebral aneurysms.

Kazuki Maruta, Professor
0 student voices
The Maruta Lab conducts research grounded in digital signal processing for wireless communications, aiming to overcome radio interference and apply communication technologies to other fields. Founded in April 2022, the lab works on frequency sharing, antenna signal processing, optical camera communication, underwater acoustic communication, and more. The lab values student independence: its basic policy is that, once students have mastered the fundamentals, they work toward their goals on their own. The lab encourages students to go on to graduate school, but it does not prevent them from taking jobs after completing their bachelor's degree.
