Why Study
Fracture Mechanics?
Understanding and preventing fractures in materials and structures has been a hot topic since the early days of human civilization. Fracture phenomena are closely linked to building and device safety. Therefore, predicting and controlling such fractures is essential not only for designing high-performance novel materials and structures but also for minimizing the risk to human lives.
Today, fracture mechanics is an active area of study in engineering, and knowledge in this field is highly valued by the industry. Our group seeks to develop innovative methods and strategies to understand fracture phenomena better. The extremely complex physical processes underlying fracture hold answers to fundamental engineering questions like “How can we create fracture-resistant materials?” and “How can we use a given material or component without causing it to fracture?”
