W poniedziałek 16 września 2024 Wydział Budownictwa odwiedzą dr Shingo Asamoto z Saitama University oraz dr Naoshi Ueda z Kansai University w Japonii. Celem wizyty będzie omówienie potencjalnych obszarów szerszej współpracy z Wydziałem Budownictwa (w tej chwili naukowcy z Japonii współpracują naukowo z dr inż. Agnieszką Jędrzejewską). W ramach wizyty profesorowie zaprezentują swoje sylwetki oraz ofertę japońskich uczelni.

Otwarta część spotkania, na które serdecznie zapraszamy wszystkich pracowników i doktorantów, zaplanowana jest na godz. 11:30. W celach organizacyjnych prosimy o potwierdzenie udziału do piątku, 13 września u pani Małgorzaty Lach (malgorzata.lach@polsl.pl).

Dr Shingo Asamoto (Associate professor, Saitama University)
Tytuł prezentacji: “Overview of research interests, including structural performance of DEF-ASR affected beams, and the current state and issues of cement application in Japan”.

Dr. Shingo Asamoto received his bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees in engineering from The University of Tokyo in 2001, 2003, and 2006, respectively. His research focuses on the time-dependent deformation of cementitious materials, the durability of concrete with mineral admixtures, the micro- and macro-scale characteristics of cementitious materials exposed to high temperatures (60–80 C), and the application of machine learning in these fields. In this presentation, Dr. Asamoto will summarize his past and recent research, introducing key papers, particularly on the structural performance of beams affected by Delayed Ettringite Formation (DEF) and Alkali-Silica Reaction (ASR). He will also discuss the current state and issues of cement application in Japan, with a focus on low-carbon cement.

Dr Naoshi Ueda (Professor, Kansai University)
Tytuł prezentacji: „Concrete research at Kansai University: From materials to structures”.

Dr. Naoshi Ueda is a professor at Department of Civil, Environmental and Applied Systems Engineering, Kansai University. He received his Doctoral of Engineering from Nagoya University in 2011. His research interests include the performance evaluation of existing concrete structures, the application of fibre-reinforced cementitious materials, and the bond and anchorage of embedded reinforcement. He consistently studies the mechanics and failure behaviour of concrete structures, focusing on both meso- and macro-level behaviour. In this presentation, he will provide a summary of his previous and recent research related to ASR and DEF, rebar corrosion, and new methods for repair, retrofitting, and strengthening.
