Biography
Toshiyuki Obikawa is a Japanese manufacturing researcher whose career has spanned Tokyo Institute of Technology, the University of Tokyo Institute of Industrial Science, and (in later years) Tokyo Denki University. His experimental and modelling work addresses high-speed machining of superalloys, high-pressure and minimum-quantity coolant strategies, tool wear, and process monitoring. He co-authored Metal Machining: Theory and Applications (Arnold, 2000) with Childs, Maekawa, and Yamane, contributing the industrial metal-cutting perspective of Japanese precision engineering.
