Norio Nakagawa is a
Physicist at the Center for Nondestructive Evaluation, Iowa State
University. He received the B.S. in 1975, the M.S. in 1977, and the
Ph.D. in 1984 in theoretical high-energy physics from the University
of Tokyo. He has been employed and conducting research since 1979,
first at the Department of Physics, Purdue University (1979-1985),
and then at Ames Laboratory and Center for NDE, Iowa State
University (1985-present). He began his employment at ISU as a
postdoctoral fellow, and took the current position in May, 1990.
Nakagawa maintains research
interests in two areas. One is in the mathematical physics, topics
including general field theory, scattering theory of fields and
particles, and numerical analysis. The other area of interest is in
solving electromagnetic and other related problems by using various
numerical techniques. Currently, his major research topic is in
constructing theoretical models of eddy-current nondestructive
evaluation. He has published roughly 30 physics papers and 15
applied-physics papers in scientific journals and research reports.
