Masaru Ogawa
Profile
Masaru Ogawa received his degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) at Tokyo Institute of Technology, Tokyo. He worked at Center for Thermal Spray Research in The State University of New York at Stony Brook. After that, new nondestructive method for evaluating three-dimensional residual stresses using X-ray diffraction was invented at Yokohama National University. In 2017, the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers Award (Thesis) was won after arrived at Kogakuin University. Currently, he collaborates with Alexander M. Korsunsky in The University of Oxford. New methods based on the inverse problem are invented in Japan.
