Outline Activities
The primary objective of my research work is to clarify the deformation, damage development and fracture behavior of advanced bio-composite systems and materials such as artificial joints and bioabsorbable materials. Experimental mechanics for macroscopic mechanical testing and microscopic analysis in addition to computational mechancis are utilized to perform my research works. The main topics of research are:
1. Development and evaluation of mechanical properties of bio-composite materials
2. Computational analysis of artificial joints
3. Development of porous biomaterials for regenerative medicine
4. Biomechanical analysis of the problems in orthopedics
5. Relationship between porous material and cell growth
