Research Topics

I am studying fundamental aspects of complex and dynamical systems described by nonequilibrium statistical mechanics and nonlinear dynamics through mathematical modeling of specific systems in physics, engineering, and biology.
The research subjects I have being working on include theory of thermodynamic efficiency of nonequilibrium heat engines, dynamical modeling of a low-temperature-differential Stirling engine and elucidation of its rotational mechanism, and
construction of energetics of synchronization in coupled oscillators.

Lecturer

To understand natural, biological, and artificial systems, we perform mathematical modeling and analysis. Moreover, closely collaborating with experimentalists of various fields, we try to solve problems related to our lives. 

Modeling and development of general theories
By constructing simple models that describe complex dynamical phenomena, we try to understand, predict, and control such phenomena. Moreover, through the generalizing and abstraction of problems, we try to construct general theories. Examples of our subjects include biological rhythms, locomotion, hydrodynamic phenomena, power grids, transportation networks, traffic networks, pattern formation in biological and chemical systems, social systems, neural networks.

Collaboration with experimentalists
To solve problems closely related to our lives, we collaborate with researchers of various disciplines such as engineering and biology. Our roles are to provide theoretical ideas, to analyze and interpret experimental data, and to propose new experiments. 

Keywords
