My spetial field of study is earthquake resistant structure. The way of my study is at first understanding of destruction mode and strength of structure by experiment , and next establishing design method by simulating the experimental results by analysis.
In 2015 I took up my new post of professor of Okayama University of Science, I was beginning of study of Tublar truss structure in steel with locally company. And in 2016 I was beginning study of Base isolation structure and Seismic controle structure by using the small vibration table.
I am planning to study of new structure of minimizing damage under large eathquake expected in the near future.
