This laboratory is cooperative one Renewable Energy Integrated Utilization
Section and Nonlinear Dynamics Section of Research Institute for Applied
Mechanics, Kyushu University. Detailed information are available in the
web pages of the sections.
We research and develop technolgies and devices aiming to increase and
expand the utilization of renewable energies by cost reduction, increase
in size and function, and diversify, etc., through multi-discplinary approaches
as fluid, mechanical, control, electrical, wind engineerings, etc.
ACADEMIC STAFF

MEASURE RESEARCH THEME
- Large scale wind turbines, floating offshore wind turbines, airborne wind turbines.
- Diffuser-augmented wind turbine, multi-rotor system.
- Wind farm optimization.
We aim to clarify nonlinear dynamics phenomena in fluids by deriving model
equations under universal laws, by finding their solutions theoretically
or numerically, and by developing fundamental concepts of the phenomena.
