Dr. Masahiro Nishida | Impact Engineering | Best Researcher Award

Orcid Profile

Educational Details

B.E. in Mechanical Engineering (1991): Tokyo Institute of Technology.

M.E. in Mechanical Engineering (1993): Tokyo Institute of Technology.

Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering (1996): Tokyo Institute of Technology, under the supervision of Professor H. Matsumoto. His thesis was titled “Evaluation Method of Mechanical Properties for Material by Phase-Sensitive Acoustic Microscope”.

 

Professional Experience

Prof. Nishida began his career as a Research Associate in the Department of Mechanical Science at Tokyo Institute of Technology from 1996 to 1997. He then joined Nagoya Institute of Technology as a Research Associate in 1997, working under Professor K. Tanaka. He progressed to Lecturer (2001-2004), Associate Professor (2004-2018), and has been a full Professor since 2018. In addition to his academic roles, he has served as the General Manager of the Quality Innovation Techno-Center at Nagoya Institute of Technology since 2022. He has also been a visiting researcher at Luleå University of Technology, Sweden, in 2009.

Research Interest

Prof. Masahiro Nishida’s research focuses on the dynamic behavior of materials under extreme conditions, with particular emphasis on hypervelocity impacts and advanced material properties. His work on hypervelocity impact explores the performance of materials like metals and plastics used in space debris bumpers, carbon fiber-reinforced plastics, and components produced through additive manufacturing. In the field of dynamic strength of advanced materials, he investigates the mechanical properties of recycled aluminum alloys, additive manufacturing materials, and biodegradable plastics using the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) technique, which allows for high-strain-rate testing. Additionally, his research into the dynamics of heterogeneous materials involves studying the behavior of aggregated soft particles and understanding how contact forces propagate within these assemblies. This combination of experimental and computational approaches provides valuable insights into the resilience and performance of materials in extreme environments.
