Advances in materials fabrication and probing have been instrumental in the continued miniaturization of high-performance electronic and photonic devices. Soon, the feature size variability will be just a few atoms where the fundamental and engineering limits become significantly important. In this seminar, I will present my recent and...
Metrology, or the science of measurement, is essential in all manufacturing fields. The phrase “if it can’t be measured, it can’t be manufactured” may be overused, but it remains true. Once a workpiece is machined, its dimensions need to be inspected for quality control. There...
To achieve Level 4 autonomous driving, it is essential to enhance the intelligence of both the vehicle and the road traffic infrastructure. In this presentation, I will explain the role and impact of intelligent infrastructure on perception and decision-making, particularly focusing on collaborative perception and...
Mechanical engineering, like many other disciplines, is experiencing significant integration with fields such as materials science, electrical engineering, and chemical engineering. Similarly, biotechnology has become a key area of convergence for mechanical engineering. In this talk, I will explore the design and fabrication of engineered...
An evaporating liquid drop, whether single or multi-component and containing solutes or particulates, leaves a deposit whose form is determined by various parameters, for instance, internal flow fields, liquid compositions, and interactions between suspended particles and a solid substance. Notably, the coffee-ring pattern and the...
Degradation in various engineering systems is inevitable, and numerous automated technologies have been proposed to enable predictive maintenance and prevent sudden failures. Despite recent advances, automation of these real-world tasks has been limited thus far. This is partly due to the variety of data and...
Dr. Inyong Park, principal researcher of Department of Urban Environment Research at Korea institute of machinery and materials (KIMM), will deliver a presentation detailing the ongoing research and advancements at KIMM. He will begin with a brief introduction to KIMM, followed by an overview of...
Gas chromatography (GC) is a reliable technique for analyzing complex gas mixtures, and the growing demand for sensitive, accurate, and portable tools has driven the development of micro gas chromatography (μGC). These compact systems, enabled by advances in microfabrication, materials science, and detector technology, are widely...
The Additive Manufacturing(AM) process developed for creating prototypes has evolved into a production process for manufacturing products. However, there are limitations in terms of the achievable size, production speed, and available materials, which restrict its direct application to products with varied functionalities and shapes. To...
This seminar explores the engineering innovations and future potential of Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs), a promising Generation IV nuclear technology that offers numerous improvements over traditional reactors. MSRs utilize a fluid state mixtures of nuclear fuel dissolved in molten salts, which functions as both coolant...
