Detonation Symposium concerning thrusters for aerospace applications was held in University of Tsukuba. with a cooperation of JAXA and Detonation Research Group.

September 11: New theory for the collapse of WTC

Prof. Daigoro Isobe deployed a new theory on the fatal cause of
the total collapse of the New York WTC towers, which occurred on 11th of September, 2001. According to the numerical simulation carried out using his newly developed finite element code, spring-back phenomena in the core columns caused by the aircraft impact were observed.
It was fatal enough to produce a gigantic tensile force on the columns, which might have triggered the total fracture of some column joints, eventually leading to the total collapse of the towers. (More...)

EME Spotlight floating droplet

A large water droplet is levitated in the atmosphere by the ultrasonic standing wave.

The present technology is developing in Prof.Yutaka Abe's lab for the fluid dynamic control under the micro-gravity environment in space shuttle and space station. The research is conducting in collaboration with JAXA.
