Features and Uniqueness
  • (a) Development of numerical analysis method for heterogeneous microstructures of materials, and its application for characterization of macroscopic material behavior
  • (b) Development of theories and techniques of numerical simulations for fluid-structure interaction and multi-physico-chemical phenomena
  • (c) Development of computational engineering schemes for clarifying deterioration processes and strength characteristics of infrastructures and structural materials with a view to the durability assessment by applying multi-scale/multi-physics analysis methods
Practical Application

(a) Manufacturers of various materials: Development of materials’ constitutive equations and their implementation into simulation software.
(b) Construction industries: enhancement of evaluation methods for strength and stability of structures
(c) Local government: development of practical techniques for disaster prevention, mitigation and reconstruction to ensure security and safety
