Outline of Chair
Hydro turbine and wind turbine devices utilizing natural energy
After the Industrial Revolution, many mechanical systems were developed that caused an explosive increase in human-controllable energy levels. The development of a variety of functional devices and control technologies based on material technology that dramatically improve the functions and performance of those machines, and the development of manufacturing technologies that improve productivity and increase value-added, have worked together to enable the rich lifestyles we enjoy today.
On the other hand, attention to maintaining balance in the global macro-environment and ensuring a level of quality that enables true humanism in a complex industrial society are becoming important factors in today’s technological development.
To ensure a technological edge in the rapidly changing global economy, there is demand for development of innovative mechanical technologies based on new ideas and using rapid and low-cost optimization processes.
This chair carries out research and education on the development and optimum design of mechanical systems employing more advanced information and telecommunications systems for the purpose of developing systems and devices in harmony with nature, society and individuals, and developing advanced mechanical systems for industry.
Research Fields
Mechanical Systems Engineering covers six fields of research and education related to mechanical engineering, ranging from new manufacturing and processing technologies for composite and new materials, to optimum design and manufacturing technologies for mechanical devices employing a variety of mechanical and functional elements, and energy storage and conversion technologies using thermal and fluid media.
