Okayama University Graduate School of Environmental and Life Science
Associate Professor YOSHIDA Keisuke was selected by Electric Technology
Research Foundation of Chugoku for Research Encouragement Award 2021.
Electric Technology Research Foundation of Chugoku aims to contribute to
the prosperity of the local Chugoku region as well as to the
development of Japanese industry through the robust development of
energy technology and electrical power. Its main activities include
subsidizing experimental research on basic technologies related to the
supply and use of electrical power in the Chugoku region. Associate
Professor YOSHIDA was selected for the award based on research completed
in 2019 and was the only scholar selected for the award this year.
Through his research, he developed a method to predict the overflow risk
for river embankments during floods using airborne laser bathymetry
data.
Unfortunately, due to restrictions put in place because of the
coronavirus, it was not possible to hold an official ceremony. Instead, a
private ceremony was held on June 1 at Okayama University, where
Professor SUGA Seiji, who is the dean of the faculty of engineering as
well as the director of the aforementioned research foundation,
presented Associate Professor YOSHIDA with a certificate of commendation
and a supplementary prize.
Upon receiving the award, Associate Professor YOSHIDA commented, “I am grateful to the many researchers who collaborated with me on this project, without whom I would not have won this award. We will continue to strive for great research results.”
