About MFPL
MFPL(Materials Forming and Processing Lab.) was established in Oct. 2016. We are conducting research on deformation process on the theme of "material deformation" related to plastic processing and plasticity engineering, which is the basic technology of "manufacturing" in Japan. In our lab., we cover both experimental and theoretical approaches such as stamping process, tube forming, material modeling, dieless forming without using any dies and tools, micro metal forming by focusing on “permanent deformation of materials” from a standpoint of cross-cutting issues from micro to macro-scale. In addition, we also perform international collaborated research with Russian Academy of Science (Russia), University of Wollongong (Australia), Northeastern University (China), AGH Science and Technology (Poland), Czech Technical University in Prague, (Czech) and University of New Hampshire (USA).
Mission
Contributing the foundations of global manufacturing by approaching from both material science and processing
Vision
- In the field of metal forming, our lab. aim to become leading laboratory.
- Through life in the laboratory, our member grow into a human resource who can play an active role in society regardless of industry or occupation
