Clarifying the failure mechanisms of materials used in the buildings and structures around us, such as aircraft, automobiles, and power plants, contributes to the safety of our lives. This research is called "material strength science." Professor Yokobori has conducted cross-sectional research and elucidated various phenomena in material strength science. With the goal of "ensuring global safety and security," he has conducted repeated experiments using original testing equipment and developed a unique theory for predicting the lifespan of materials. His research aims to improve safety in a wide range of fields, from airplane jet engines and thermal power generation turbines to hydrogen vehicles, the next generation of energy.

Program introduction

Program title: "“One’s way”- Seekers of Knowledge"
Broadcast on BS Asahi every Saturday from 23:00 to 23:30

This documentary follows people who pursue “One’s way” aspirations and seek out new things. There are many people in the world who are dedicated to pursuing one thing, such as researchers, artists, athletes, and comedians. When the flowers of their pursuits blossom, the results are seen by many, but even now, at this very moment, there are many people who are living out their hard, arduous pursuits without being noticed. And they are filled with passion that we don't usually see. Each episode of this program introduces a person who is pursuing aspirations as the protagonist. From famous people to people who have never been in the spotlight, this program focuses on their "passionate spirit of exploration" and "style."

Tune in this Saturday at 23:00 for an intimate look at Professor Kenshiro Shiraishi's trailblazing contributions to cancer treatment and join us in celebrating the indomitable spirit of those who forge their path in the pursuit of knowledge.   Click here for the official program website
