Supervisor
Specially Appointed Associate Professor / Tomoki YAMASHITA
Prof. Yamashita is very enthusiastic about student education , because he eagerly tell us if there are something we do not understand in the weekly meeting. In addition, he often introduce papers and websites that are useful for research.
Research Content
In recent years, in the field of materials development, methods for more efficient development have been studied by applying information science technology. Such research is called materials informatics and is an area that has recently attracted attention because it can reduce the time and cost required for material development. Computational materials science laboratory conducts research that combines first principles calculations and materials informatics. We also develop software to predict stable crystal structure from composition.
MD simulation
A Day in the Lab
In this laboratory, students do not do what is called "experiment" using measuring devices, and research is mainly on simulation using computers. Therefore, research can be advanced anytime and anywhere with a personal computer. In addition, since there is no core time in the laboratory, you can freely decide the schedule. Students study condensed matter physics and machine learning from the basic at seminar, so you don't need to worry if you don't know anything about machine learning.
