Welcome to "Sakaida and Yashiro Laboratory"

- Micro-Macro Bridging in Material Strength Design and Evaluation Laboratory -

Our goal is established "Newly mechanics and techniques" that were bridging between Macro properties and Micro structures.

Approaches: We approach several problems by;

1. Experimental methods: Mesuring Mchanical Properties, Fracture Strength, Fatigue Life, Fracture Toughness and Residual Stressess using conventional X-rays, neutron and synchrotron x-rays.
2. Simulation techniques: Finite Element Method, Homogenization Method, Image-based Modeling using Microstructural images or CT images.
