2025 Spring Academic Conference of the Korean Society of Tribology Award / Research team led by Professors Tae-Ho Kim and Jae-Kang Kim (Department of Mechanical Engineering)
- 25.05.08 / 이정민
The research teams led by Professor Tae-Ho Kim and Professor Jae-Kang Kim from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Kookmin University received recognition for their outstanding research achievements at the 77th Spring Academic Conference of the Korean Tribology Society in 2025, drawing attention from the academic community.
Professor Kim Tae-ho's research team (Mechanical Design and Vibration Reduction Laboratory, MEDVIC), including graduate students Lee Min-woo and Choi Seok-hoon, won the Best Paper Award for their research titled “Prediction of Static Performance of a 3-Lobe Bearing Based on Wear Geometry,” demonstrating excellence in the field of advanced rotating machinery component design. Professor Kim Tae-ho's research team is contributing to the development of various industries by focusing on high-speed rotating shaft and bearing design technologies.
Additionally, Professor Jae-Kang Kim's research team (Surface Design and Manufacturing Laboratory, SDML) (graduate student Oh Sang-hoon and undergraduate student Lee Seung-hoon) received the Poster Academic Category Merit Award for their research titled “Improvement of Adhesion Force of Electrostatic Adhesive Pads via Electric Field Control and Its Application in Soft Grippers.” Professor Kim Jae-gang's research team is leading the way in functional surface design and small-scale robotics and gripper technology, accelerating the development of next-generation industrial materials and systems. Notably, Professor Kim Jae-kang was selected for the “2025 Excellent Young Researcher” project supported by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Research Foundation of Korea in February 2025, securing approximately 7 billion won in research funding over the next five years to conduct research on the development of dry adhesive patches for extreme environments.
This award demonstrates that the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Kookmin University possesses outstanding research capabilities in innovative technology fields that will lead future industries.
