During his graduate study, he performed research in various topics in theoretical physics, including quantum field theory (particle physics), supersymmetry, nonequilibrium statistical mechanics, electron systems etc, to produce 8 academic papers. After becoming research associate, he made a significant contribution to molecular vibration spectroscopy by bringing in field-theoretical techniques to the field of molecular science. Furthermore, he started working on the toughness of pearl (nacre) with a Novel prized physicist, de Gennes, in Paris. There, he was deeply impressed by the spirit of impressionistic physics, which allows us to extract simple physical essences form complex real-world phenomena. As a result, he shifted his field towards soft matter physics and has explored in the field statistical physics viewpoints such as scaling in critical phenomena. His current interests include fracture and toughness of soft-hard complex, wetting and thin film dynamics, granular systems, and so forth. His papers are cited more than 4000 times.<\/p>\n
