Research Content

Our laboratory have many research topic that are:
1.strength characteristic of dissimilar materials joint by using friction stir welding
2.Relationship between fatigue and welding process of welded and improved joints of Mg-Al-Zn-Ca Alloy
3.Producing Green composite by using friction stirring
4.The fatigue characteristics of automotive engine component
5.Frinction string and making composite during joining of thermoplastic resin6.Laser welding of dissimilar joint between resin and metal The research area is extent that is relative to materials strength, interface strength and technique of machining processes.

Developed Magnesium alloy Rearframe for motorcycles (Joint researcch with Yamaha Motor Co.,Ltd.)

A Day in the Lab

Our lab and Otsuka lab spend a lot of time together, there are many international students coming from other nations so English is often used for communication. Being member of our lab, it would be a great chance for students not only to broaden their academic knowledge but also to make friends and understand the custom and culture of many other countries in the world. We are day by day making great effort to create professional and friendly working environment.
