Research Interest

By building a new kind of safety science that goes beyond the boundaries of the existing safety engineering, and by realizing the appropriate adoption of next-generation engineering systems in society, the aim is to realize an advanced, safe society.

Having a framework in place for the appropriate evaluation of new technology is vitally important for realizing an enriched society that implements next-generation engineering systems making effective use of cutting-edge science and technology. Our unit is building on the foundations established by forward-looking activities in the field of safety engineering in the past to contribute toward the realization of an enriched future by developing technology for safety evaluation targeting leading-edge engineering systems, focusing on areas such as next-generation energy systems and the space sector that would be difficult to address using only existing frameworks.

  • Energy system safety assessment (hydrogen energy, next-generation nuclear power, and the space sector)
  • Safety engineering for complex, large-scale systems (cloud computing, and information security)
