RESEARCH
-
OPTICAL FULL-FIELD MEASUREMENT TECHNOLOGY
Development of 3-D shape and deformation measurement technology using the sampling Moiré method; displacement and vibration measurement of structures and materials, development of soundness evaluation of infrastructure structure and material design. We also develop nano-order deformation measurement system using digital holography, for aiming the development of thermal deformation measurement of the various devices.
-
ULTRASOUND VISUALIZATION & ARTIFICAIL INTELLIGENCE
Development of nondestructive inspection system utilizing laser ultrasonic visualization technology and expansion of application to actual structural inspection. Furthermore, development of noncontact ultrasound system and development of automatic defect detection technology applying artificial intelligence technology to ultrasound image analysis will advance advancement of this inspection system.
-
MECHANICAL EVALUATION OF CARBON MATERIALS
Development of measurement equipment and measurement technology for characterization of industrial carbon fiber materials. To disseminate and standardize the technology, we conduct mechanical and ultra-high temperature characteristic evaluation tests on carbon materials and contribute to the material design and manufacturing technology.
