Meet our speakers, who are active leaders in the T.I.M.E. (Technology, Information, Media, Entertainment) areas.
Kozo Fujii
Research Director, Institute of Space and Astronautical Science, JAXA
Dr. Fujii received his Ph. D. from the Department of Aeronautics, University of Tokyo in 1980. After spending two years as a NRC Research Associate at NASA Ames R. C., he became a research scientist at the National Aerospace Laboratory, Japan. He spent another couple of years at NASA Ames R. C. as a Senior NRC. In 1988, he joined the ISAS, and became a professor of high-speed aerodynamics in 1997.
Dr. Fujii's own research interests include, high-speed aerodynamics, high angle-of-attack aerodynamics, and flow visualization mainly with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). He is one of the pioneers of CFD, and received Daniel & Florence Guggenheim Award from the International Congress of Aeronautics and Space Science (ICAS) in 2004 and other awards for his pioneering contribution to CFD research and the international collaborations. He has many journal publications and has been invited to give many plenary talks in international conferences such as International Shock Wave Symposium in 2007. He is a regional editor of "Notes on Numerical Fluid Mechanics" and "Computers & Fluids" as well as having served as an associate editor of AIAA Journal and others. He is a Fellow of AIAA and JSME. Dr. Fujii was involved in the specification of JAXA's first mid-term plan in 2003 and JAXA's long-term vision in 2006. He is currently an associate member, The Science Council of Japan (SCJ) and president of the Japan Society for Computational Engineering and Science.
He was invited to Korea several times in the past. He gave a plenary talk in the inauguration of Korean Society of Computational Fluid Engineering and 5th Space Launch Vehicle Symposium in Korea.
