Applied Electronics Research Core
Asst. Prof. Yuji WADA
　I am Yuji Wada and was appointed as Assistant Professor at Future Interdisciplinary Research of Science and Technology (FIRST) on October 1, 2020. I received my degree from Tokyo Institute of Technology in March 2013. I am working on the numerical analysis of devices based on nonlinear acoustic phenomena such as acoustic streaming. In addition, I specialize in topology optimization to automatically determine the optimal material configuration of structures. I would like to investigate the optimal design of structures for vibration suppression or excitation by using topology optimization. I am looking forward to working in FIRST.

Asst. Prof. Jianpeng ZHONG（Specillay Appointed）
　I am appointed to an assistant professor (Specially appointed) of Biomedical Engineering Research Center at FIRST on October 1st, 2020. I obtained my Doctor of Engineering (Electrical Engineering) degree from Xi'an Jiaotong University, China. For the last two years, I have worked as a researcher in FIRST. My research topic is modeling and motion control of magnetic bearings and fast steering mirrors using piezoelectric actuators. My future work will focus on developing magnetically-levitated centrifugal blood pumps for ECMO (ExtraCorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) and mechatronic medical devices.
