Research Interests

Fatigue and fretting fatigue behavior of metallic materials

Many of metallic biomaterials have problems for use, because elements which are contained in conventional metallic biomaterials, such as Ni and V, may cause allergies and toxins in a human body. Thus, the reliability and safety are studied for Ni-free, high-nitrogen austenitic stainless steel, new metallic biomaterial without toxic elements.
