Research
Shin-ichi Takehiro is working on geophysical fluid dynamics.
His research interest covers all kinds of problems related to
fluid motions in planetary interiors (mantles and central cores)
and planetary atmospheres, as well as problems of
the Earth's atmosphere and ocean.
He also develops technique and software of numerical methods in order to deal with various problems in geophysical fluid dynamics.
Recent topics of his research are:
1) Fluid motions in the Earth's inner core;
2) Magneto hydrodynamic dynamos in rotating spherical shells;
3) Physical interpretations of characteristics of thermal convection emerging in rotating spherical shells;
4) Surface zonal flows generated by convection trapped below an stable layer in rapidly rotating spherical shells;
5) Two-dimensional turblence on rotating spheres.
