Main research themes

Research on geotechnical utilization of waste and construction byproducts

We are researching to utilize the steelmaking slag and waste gypsum board as ground improvement geomaterial.

Two-dimensional shaking table The direction of the inertial force can be controlled

Research on pile analysis and design modeling

We are researching to improve the analysis and design of piles based on the results of model experiments using transparent soil.
