Soil Dynamics Group

Our research group addresses soil dynamics with their role in disaster and environment.
Coastal ground stability and deformation behavior under various dynamics loads involving earthquakes, waves and tsunami have been investigated experimentally and analytically in order to develop new design formula and countermeasures against such loads.

Group Leader
Shinji SASSA

We promote multidisciplinary research related to coastal soil dynamics pertaining to liquefaction,
ground and habitat stability against various hydrodynamic forcings such as waves, currents and tsunami, scour and erosion and submarine landslides for both purposes of disaster mitigation and environmental protection.
