Introduction
I am working at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Seikei University, Tokyo.
Fluid impingement and sloshing are my current research topics. Also, I am interested in nonlinear evolution PDEs.

A new semi-empirical formula for calculating the breaking depth of plunging breakers is proposed in this study. The shallow water equation is used as the governing equation, and the wave front slope, which is one of the key parameters that governs the breaking criterion, is obtained from it analytically. The analytical formula was then modified bas...
ABSTRACT: This study aimed to propose a stochastic model for the impact pressure generated by water surge impingement onto a vertical wall. Carefully controlled laboratory experiments were conducted in a small-scale flume under four different surge conditions. Using pressure sensors and a high-speed video camera, we repeatedly measured the surge-in...
The impingement process of water surge onto a vertical wall and the impact pressure are studied analytically in this work. We newly propose an initial-boundary value problem particularly for the fluid motion near the corner of the horizontal bed and the vertical wall. The explicit solutions of the velocity and the pressure fields are analytically o...
This research is dedicated to examining downslope sediment transport on steep shorefaces. We present a model that incorporates nonlinear surface wave profiles, sediment movement thresholds, and slope effects, utilizing a set of semi-empirical formulas. The model quantitatively assesses the disparity between wave-augmented upslope transport and grav...
Theoretical and laboratory studies are performed to analyze the wave attenuation phenomenon over fluid mud under current. In the theoretical part, a semi-empirical formula is derived to model the attenuation process under current. Based on the linear wave theory, the change of wave amplitude is related with the averaged damping effect of the muddy...
Tsunami surge could generate devastating pressure on a seawall during its impingement, so-called impact pressure. The evaluation of impact pressure is considered as one of the important topics in terms of coastal disaster prevention. Laboratory experiments have been conducted by a number of authors (e.g. Ramdson 1993, Nistor et al. 2011, Lobovský e...
