Professor
Professor Shuji Ogata serves in the Department of Physical Engineering, Applied Physics Field at Nagoya Institute of Technology's Graduate School of Engineering. His research spans nanomaterials, composite interfaces, and computational materials science with focus on molecular dynamics simulations of ferroelectric systems and polymer-metal adhesion. His educational background includes a Doctor of Science from The University of Tokyo (1991), preceded by undergraduate studies in Physics at the same institution. Key research interests include: Nanomaterials and composite interfaces Ferroelectric domain dynamics in materials like BaTiO 3 Moisture effects on polymer-metal adhesion Hybrid quantum-classical simulation methods Multiscale modeling from electronic to continuum levels Recent publications (2023-2024) demonstrate consistent focus on molecular dynamics simulations of ferroelectric materials and interfacial phenomena, particularly examining domain wall behavior in barium titanate and protonation mechanisms in epoxy resins under wet conditions. His work integrates machine learning potentials and first-principles calculations to address multiscale challenges. Award highlights include: Editors' Pick in Applied Physics Letters (2024) Featured Article in Journal of Applied Physics (2023) Best Technical Paper at Supercomputing 2001 Excellent Achievement Research Project from RIST (2015) His research program includes significant grants from JSPS, MEXT, and NEDO, particularly the "Super-fast development of super-materials" project (2016-2021) and current MEXT initiatives using the Fugaku supercomputer. He advises multiple doctoral students including Hikaru Azuma and Ryo Kobayashi who frequently co-author his recent publications. His Opto-Biotechnology Research Center affiliation enables cross-disciplinary collaborations in materials simulation.
