Research Themes
The flow of air, the flow of water, the flow of molten metal
I am conducting various studies based on fluid dynamics (the flow of water and air). Some targets of my research are aerospace, metal materials process and the flow associated with solid-liquid and gas-liquid phase changes. I am also conducting experimental research into the development of new airships and the development of magnetic suspension and balance for wind tunnels. I am attempting to predict the flow of various scales, from the flow around atmospheric entry capsules to the microfluidization around dendrite crystals, using numerical simulations.
Teaching Philosophy
I want to foster people who are not just satisfied with learning, but who want to create technology and knowledge.
