Kazuhisa Chiba, Professor
0 student voices
The Chiba Lab studies the design of aerospace vehicle shapes. Using tools such as high-speed aerodynamics, computational fluid dynamics, evolutionary computation, and data analysis, the lab pursues a wide range of research topics. Students are not tied to Professor Chiba's own interests; they choose topics that interest them and carry out their research on those. The lab sees research as a way to build the solid foundation needed to face open-ended problems with no set answer once students enter society, and it runs its research and education on that basis.
Hiroshi Masuda, Professor
0 student voices
The Masuda Lab conducts research in 3D measurement, large-scale point cloud processing, 3D shape processing, and design engineering. Professor Hiroshi Masuda, who leads the lab, is a faculty member of the Department of Mechanical and Intelligent Systems Engineering and the Class III (Science and Engineering) Mechanical Systems Program at the University of Electro-Communications. The lab's website says that the lab runs an industry–academia technical committee on large-scale point cloud processing at the Japan Society for Precision Engineering. The website also states that the lab founded Point Cloud Lab Co., Ltd., a startup originating from the University of Electro-Communications, in West Building 11.
Tomio Okawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Okawa Lab aims to contribute to solving energy and environmental problems, and studies thermal-hydraulics, in particular phase-change heat transfer and gas–liquid two-phase flow. Unlike a flow of water alone or air alone, a flow in which water and air are mixed is even more complex, because the boundary between gas and liquid keeps changing from moment to moment. The goals of the research are to improve the safety of large-scale energy systems and to achieve highly efficient cooling of next-generation electronic devices. The lab belongs to the Energy and Environment field of the Department of Mechanical and Intelligent Systems Engineering at the University of Electro-Communications, and it explores the wonders of heat through experiments and numerical simulation.
Hiroya Mamori, Professor
0 student voices
The Mamori-Wang Lab studies the control of heat and flow, mainly through numerical simulation, including ways to reduce frictional drag in turbulent flows and ways to enhance heat transfer. The lab addresses challenges such as reducing flow resistance, improving cooling and heating performance, and estimating and predicting flows that are difficult to measure. Joint research with companies on heat and fluid problems is also welcome. Undergraduate students belong to the Mechanical Systems Program in Class III (Science and Engineering) of the School of Informatics and Engineering.
Takashi Matsumura, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Matsumura Lab studies static strength and fatigue strength in the field of strength of materials. Its listed research fields are mechanics of materials and mechanical engineering materials. Associate Professor Matsumura has experience teaching courses including "Mechanics of Materials and Exercises" and "Fundamentals of Strength of Materials."
Koichi Morishige, Professor
0 student voices
The Morishige Lab researches software technologies that support manufacturing. On the lab's website, Prof. Morishige and Assistant Professor Nagamatsu are introduced under the name "Morishige-Nagamatsu Lab." Questions from students interested in the research themes or wishing to join the lab are answered at any time. Online meetings are also available, and consultations from students at other universities and colleges of technology are accepted.
Hideaki Nagamatsu, Tenure-Track Assistant Professor
0 student voices
The Nagamatsu Lab studies manufacturing and processing, with metal 3D printing as its core theme. This technology builds products directly by stacking molten metal in three dimensions. It requires no mold preparation and may reduce material waste. The lab develops new forming techniques and evaluates the microstructure and strength properties of the materials it produces, aiming to create high-value-added processing technologies. The lab invites students interested in a wide range of activities, including equipment design, machining with machine tools, and evaluation of material properties, to join the work.
Yuri Shinohara, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Shinohara Lab uses crystallography and electron microscopy to study how the microstructure of metals forms and where the properties of materials come from. Metallic materials may seem to have been studied exhaustively, but much remains unknown, including the mechanisms by which microstructures form. The lab specializes in physical metallurgy and crystallography, and was newly launched in October 2023. It works on materials such as biomedical titanium alloys and the martensitic microstructure of steel.
Hironobu Yuki, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Yuki Lab studies acoustic emission (AE) and educational support systems for design and drafting. AE is a phenomenon in which elastic waves are generated when a sudden change occurs in a solid, such as when a crack forms. The snap you hear when breaking disposable chopsticks is also a kind of AE. The AE method measures AE to examine its magnitude and frequency of occurrence, or analyzes its waveforms, in order to learn how things break and where damage is located. In its other main area of research, the lab develops computer-based active exercise systems that help students build the ability to visualize the motion of mechanisms and to read and produce drawings.
Yasunori Yusa, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Yusa Lab studies simulation techniques that use computers to reproduce the solid mechanics problems that arise from the time a machine is designed and manufactured, through aging, until it fails. The lab develops new computational methods for problems involving large deformation, problems in which heat conduction causes deformation, problems involving holes or cracks, and problems that require parallel computing or speedup. The lab was founded at the University of Electro-Communications in October 2019 and accepts students from the Department of Mechanical and Intelligent Systems Engineering and from the School of Informatics and Engineering, Class III (Science and Engineering).
