Presentation, international conference, etc.
It's been a month since my stay in Barcelona and I'm getting settled in.I had a chance to introduce my research and we had discussions, and I got some hints of phenomena that I need to think about in the future.There was also an international conference on a site investigation, and many participants from Japan […]
2023 Paper Award (English Division), Japnese Geotechnical Engineering Society
We won the 2023 Paper Award from the Japanese Geotechnical Engineering Society for "Water and soil particle movements in unsaturated bentonite with constrained and free swelling boundaries, Soils and Foundations Vol.63, No.4 (2023)”. It is a precious memory for me having long online discussions on differential equations with the first author, Dr. Wang, several times. […]
Nagoya ↔ Barcelona online research activities
Kyokawa will be in Barcelona for his overseas research, so we will be online in Nagoya↔Barcelona for a year.We have prepared many experiments and analyses, and I think members in Japan have enough ability and motivation. I am sure that we will be able to continue our good research. Let's do our best!
Experiment room re-re-movement is completed.
I feel like I have been doing nothing but moving and cleaning my laboratory since I arrived here, but I am finally settled in my experimental environment. I will keep things tidy, safe, and produce good results. We will also continue to introduce our equipment on our website.
The 1st Chubu Salon at Nagoya Institute of Technology
The first Chubu Salon (https://chubu-geotech-saloon.jimdosite.com/) was held on April 30 at Nagoya Institute of Technology.The participants shared their questions and thoughts on a wide range of topics, from team management to liquefaction mechanisms. We shared such questions and ideas that young faculty members, practitioners, and students had, and participants discussed them. I think there were […]
