Laboratory philosophy: Towards the development of environmental protection technolog ies y for ocean marine and costal near shore areas
Program outline: From such perspectives as mechanical engineering, environment heat engineering, and control engineering, students conduct research into the development of next-generation environmental protection technolog ies y , energy technologies, and ocean marine and fishery commercial fishing machinery, as well as greater performance and energy saving features, and control technologies for all kinds of equipment.
Graduate School instructor(s): Shigeki KAMETANI (Professor), Hisaharu SAKAI (Professor), and Masayoshi TODA (Associate Professor)
Research topics:
(1)  Performance evaluation model for heat source systems; Optimizing heat source systems; Constructing waste heat processing models

Related instructor(s): Shigeki KAMETANI

Outline: From the perspective of reducing such thermal heat pollution as the heat island phenomenon seen in costal near shore and urban areas, this research topic covers such areas as: the transition of waste heat from heat source systems that are sources of thermal environment load to a form of latent heat; construction of the simulation models that calculate the thermal diffusion on the sea or rivers thermally diffuse temperature and waste heat into the sea and into rivers ; and the development of performance evaluating models and methods for heat-source equipment.

(2)  Developing t echnologies to prevent incidental catch of seabirds in Tuna longline fishing

Related instructor(s): Hisaharu SAKAI
Outline: This research is attempting to develop a devices that release s fishhooks with baits into the sea in order to prevent the incidental catch of seabirds in Tuna longline fishing. The research has also begun developing peripheral devices around i t, such as a device that feed baits with f i shhooks to it automatically.

(3)  Control of ocean marine mechanical systems
Related instructor(s): Masayoshi TODA
Outline: Students in this topic engage in research relating to non-linear and robust control and its the application of this to ocean marine and fish ery ing disciplines. Recently students have also researched such areas as the robust control of manipulator robots installed on oscillatory non-static platforms such as sea vessels, and motion movement control of towed underwater vehicles tows for oceanographic observation.
