Chairs:

Hyung-Jo Jung, Professor
Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST), Daejeon 34141, South Korea

Dr. Jung's research interests has been mainly in the areas of structural control and dynamics, natural and man-made hazards mitigation, smart structures and materials, earthquake engineering, and wind engineering. Since early his academic career, he has focused on structural control using MR dampers and become a leading expert in innovation of MR technology by developing self-sensing and self-powering MR actuators for controlling large structures. Beyond MR research, he has worked on several emerging research such as structural health monitoring using smart sensor technologies and energy harvesting from ambient and environmental sources (such as vibrations and winds). More recently, he is at the forefront of investigating bridge inspection technologies using unmanned aerial vehicles and artificial intelligence (e.g., deep learning).

Sukhoon Pyo, Assistant Professor
School of Urban and Environmental Engineering, Ulsan National Institute of Science & Technology (UNIST), Ulsan 44919, South Korea

His research interests are design, fabrication, characterization and applications of a variety of innovative materials toward construction and transportation fields. His recent research topics include the structural applications of ultra-high performance concrete, the material design of sound absorbable high performance concrete, the development of sustainable railway sleepers for upcycling of waste plastics, and applications of innovative laser fabrication to cementitious materials. Currently, he serves as direct of the Korea Society for Railway.

H.K. Lee, Professor
Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST), Daejeon 34141, South Korea

His research interests are multi- and cross-disciplinary, and are primarily concerned with development of sustainable and functional construction materials with an emphasis on the integration with nano- and bio-technology, and multiscale modelling of advanced engineering materials. Currently, he is an honorable fellow of International Conference on Computational and Experimental Engineering and Sciences (ICCES).
