- Control Theory of Infinite Dimensional Systems
- Research
- The systems described in partial differential equations are called infinite dimensional systems. We used to apply theory of functional analysis to the research of control problems for infinite dimensional systems. In this laboratory, we will study not only control theory, but also the verification of our theory using simulation software.

- I have set a goal to develop innovative treatments of Myasthenia gravis (MG) and fi nding a new target antigen from the neuromuscular junction. MG is caused by the failure of neuromuscular transmission mediated by pathogenic autoantibodies (Abs) against acetylcholine receptor (AChR) and muscle-specifi c receptor tyrosine kinase (MuSK). The seropositivity rates for routine AChR binding Ab and MuSK Ab in MG are 80-85% and 5-10% for MG patients in Japan, respectively. The autoimmune target in the remaining patients is unknown. In 2011,autoantibodies against low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4 (Lrp4) were identifi ed in Japanese MG patients and thereafter have been reported in Germany and the USA. We developed a simple technique termed Gaussia luciferase immunoprecipitation for detecting antibodies to Lrp4. As a result, nine generalized MG patients from 300 lacking AChR Ab are positive for Lrp4 antibodies. Thymoma was not observed in any of these patients. These antibodies inhibit binding of Lrp4 to its ligand and are predominantly of the IgG1 subclass. In other reports of Lrp4 ab, Lrp4 ab positive sera inhibited agrin-induced aggregation of AChRs in cultured myotubes, suggesting a pathogenic role regarding the dysfunction of the neuromuscular endplate. These results indicate that Lrp4 is a third autoantigen in patients with MG, and anti-Lrp4 autoantibodies may be pathogenic. Further studies including neuromuscular junction biopsy are needed to clarify the pathomechanism of Lrp4 ab positive MG.

Medical engineering has undergone rapid development in recent years through the introduction of engineering theory and technology to medical science and their application in broad areas of mediccal treatment.
In the process of developing medical devices, consideration is given to quantification,
objectivity,, reproducibility, planning, and forecasting.
We create new medical equipment from the standpoint of both medicine and engineering and pursue research and education including basic content necessary for development.

The demand for biomedical implants, such as vital-signal sensors and neuromuscular stimulators that depend on the development of small and low-power circuits, is on the rise.
We conduct research on the development of advanced implantable medical devices.
Our main fields of interest are the design of mixed-signal LSI and systems, the analog and digital signal processing, and measurement techniques.

In order to plan and design various kinds of offshore structures, it is necessary to analyze and evaluate the hydrodynamic performance of those offshore structures. We study a method to predict, theoretically and experimentally, the response character- istics of offshore structures with reference to the effect of mooring system in waves.
Moreover, a new type of offshore structure with excellent performance is investigated by use of the above method, and its potential for realization is evaluated.

- 様々な環境において活動するロボットを開発し,人間社会において運用することを目指す。例えば,海洋資源の探査が注目されているが,水中における作業は人間にとって危険な作業の一つである。そこで自律型水中ロボット(AUVs)が人間の代わりに作業することが期待されている。そのためには,故障しにくいハードウェアや計測装置,様々な状況に対応できる制御システムが求められる。また,混雑した場所においてロボットを運用するためには,ナビゲーションシステムだけでなく,人間に危害を加えないための安全性についても考えなくてはならない。
