To protect buildings, infrastructures and important facilities in urban areas against extreme disasters, the required countermeasure is not only damage reduction but also ensuring resilience in order to recover urban facilitiesʼ functions rapidly after the disasters. The Resilient Structure Research Center (ReSRC) of Kobe University has been operating since June 2016 to enhance urban resilience research from the structural engineering viewpoint. The Graduate School of Engineering at Kobe University has recently installed two kinds of high performance experimental apparatus to estimate the ultimate behavior of various kinds of structural elements: “Shaking table” and “High-speed actuator”. ReSRC has a mission to maximize these research resources, to collaborate with many research counterparts in Japan and abroad, and to advance our activities on resilient structure research. Our research objectives are to embody a global standard for the performance evaluation of resilient structure systems/devices/designs and to propose a common international evaluation method through international collaborative research. ReSRC aims for advanced research outcomes that contribute to the urban formation of resilience and robustness against disasters.The Medical Device Fabrication Engineering Center (MeDFEC) aims to develop novel medical devices and systems for medical care. Developments pass through three stages: (i) cutting-edge basic research, (ii) applied research, and (iii) application prototype through close cooperation with medical doctors / researchers. MeDFEC is mainly composed of researchers from the Department of Mechanical Engineering and the Department of Chemical Science and Engineering. In order to monitor the direction of research and development, the Center cooperates closely with researchers belonging to the Graduate School of Medicine, especially in the field of surgery and related areas. Individual researchers in this center have their own seeds based on mechanical engineering and chemical engineering, as shown in the diagram. From several seeds, cutting-edge research outcomes are introduced to the medical researchers, and then advance to the applied research stage to be adapted as a new medical device. The developed prototype is examined in vivo to check the safety requirements and effectiveness. Of course, the final goal is actual application of the individual research outcomes.
