International Joint Studies



Improvement of Enclosed Coastal Seas Environment in the World


 The study on improvement of enclosed coastal sea environment has been conducted in cooperation with the Horn Point Environmental Laboratory of Center for Environmental and Estuarine Studies of University of Maryland System in U.S.A., the Laboratories Environment Marine Littoral of University de Nice in France, the Institute of oceanography of the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil and Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute in Korea together with International EMECS center.



Evaluation of New Material


 In order to develop new materials for mass transportation and storage of new hydrogen energy, development of the evaluation for the new material has been conducted in cooperation with Tsinghua University in P.R. China. The study on the stress corrosion cracking for materials has been carried out with the VTT Metals Laboratory in Finland.
