Our Laboratory

The research topics of Structural Dynamics group are centered around various engineering issues related to structural dynamics, earthquake engineering, and design of structural systems for large-scale infrastructures. The area of interest also covers the application of the state-of-the-art dynamic response modofication devices, sophisticated high peformance strcutures.
In addition, recently in bridge earthquake engineering, performance evaluation caused by environmental action has been important. Therefore, researches on deteriorated structural members are conducted.

Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics

  • Sophisticated High Seismic Performance Structure (Robust Structure, Metabolism Structure)
  • Bridge Bearing Structures, especially Seismic Isolation Bearings
  • Hybrid Simulation to evaluate Dynamic Response of Large-scale Structural Systems

    • Construction Materials of Infrastructures

  • Evaluation of Deteriorated Structural Members
