My studies for the geotechnical engineering have focused on the soil water behavior. Recent topics are follows.
Safety of river levee;
It is important to reconsider the evaluation method for the stability of the river levee due to the locally heavy rain in recent years. To improve the safety of the river levee, especially, this study aims to clarify the influence of the pore-air behavior on the seepage behavior of river water and rainfall into the river levee.
Groundwater management;
In Gifu Prefecture, it has been dependent on groundwater among many water resources. It is therefore required the proper utilization of the groundwater resource for the future. This study aims to clarify the better management of the groundwater resources in Gifu area.
