About me

/images/myface.jpg

I am Ryo KOBAYASHI, an associate professor at Field of Applied Physics, Department of Engineering, Nagoya Institute of Technology, Japan. I am researching properties and phenomena in solid materials by means of computer simulation especially from atomistic point of view, and also developing new methods for molecular dynamics simulation and implementing them in our own code, such as, nap and optzer.

Research interest

  • Development of interatomic potentials for solid materials including machine-learning and classical potentials
  • Ion migration mechanism in battery materials and exploration of novel solid-state electrolyte materials
  • Material’s response under the extreme condition such as deep inside the Earth or irradiation of strong laser beam
  • Development of new multiscale simulation methods for solids
  • Development of open-source program codes for materials science research
