Fundamental Science and EngineeringCreative Science and EngineeringAdvanced Science and EngineeringⅠ FeaturesⅡ History and ProfileⅢ RequirementsCONTENTSSummary of Each Research Area◇Advanced Materials DivisionIn our department, we cover many fields of study from iron and steel to non-ferrous metals and other novel materials, and introduce a very unique mathematical approach towards developing new materials that can support the next generation industry. We aim also to develop in our students all the skills they need to commit themselves to research, development, and application of novel materials at their workplace. Concretely, they stand on a solid basis related to the fundamentals of materials from courses on thermodynamics, crystallography, and structural mechanics, and advance to studies on a variety of materials, from micromaterials to large-scale macromaterials through a hierarchically interwoven curriculum that is grounded on topology. Computational homology for mathematical materials science, advanced computing for simulation of materials, big-data analysis, and materials development for space or extreme environment applications are some examples of methodologies that can be mastered.In the Department of Materials Science, in addition to preparing skilled professionals that can work at key materials manufacturers at the Fundamental Materials Division, we also set the Advanced Materials Division to enable our graduates to fulfill the needs of the next generation industry. Our education and research activities are conducted through these two branches in a way that covers a broad range of fields and applications.◆ Mathematics for MaterialsBuilding a proper theory of the fundamental mathematics, or developing mathematical methods and high-accuracy numerical simulation methods, are needed for in-depth theoretical analysis of phenomena related to materials science. Research topics include development of novel numerical verification methods and application to concrete questions in materials science.◆ Novel Structural MaterialsStrength, durability, light-weight, and functionality are some of the properties that should be improved to achieve high-quality mechanical structural materials. With a strong background in mechanics of materials, and elasto-plasticity, strength of materials, fracture mechanics, structural mechanics, materials processing, and precision engineering, deformation and strength of materials in multi-scale, fracture events and functionalities are evaluated though experimental and simulation research. Design optimization, evaluation techniques, processing methods, or numerical analysis, are employed in fundamental and applied research.80Department of Materials Science
