[Student Reporter] Innovative Ideas Shine at SUNY Korea's Fall 2024 ME Final Project Showcase On Thursday, December 5, 2024, SUNY Korea hosted its annual Mechanical Engineering Final Project Showcase from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM at the Doosan Dream Makerspace (IGC Building B1093). The event provided students with an opportunity to present their innovative projects to peers, faculty, and visitors. Projects ranged from AI-based pothole detection systems to student-manufactured items and even casino slot machine prototypes which reflected the creativity and engineering skills of participants. The showcase featured three main sections: MEC 440/441 project presentations, MEC 325 project showcases, and MEC 101 presentations. Dr. Hamid Hefazi delivered the opening remarks, setting the start for an engaging and insightful event. Closing remarks concluded the showcase at 6:00 PM, celebrating the students’ hard work and achievements. Claire, a senior participant, shared her reflections on the experience: “The senior design project was a challenging but rewarding experience. Over the course of a year, my team and I worked through countless iterations, using tools like CAD and FEA simulations to design, prototype, and refine our idea. Our journey wasn’t always smooth—there were plenty of late nights troubleshooting and rethinking our approach—but those moments taught me the value of teamwork and adaptability. Presenting our project at the ME final showcase was a proud moment. It felt amazing to share what we had worked so hard on with peers, professors, and our advisor. Seeing everything come together made all the effort worth it and reinforced my passion for hands-on engineering and problem-solving.” The event not only highlighted the students’ technical knowledge and problem-solving skills, but also demonstrated their creativity skills and teamwork. As the event came to a close, the showcase served as an important reminder for students to address real world challenges and inspire a passion for their engineering interests.

ME Graduate Students (Advisor Prof. Jongseong Brad Choi) Crowned Champions at the KSME/KIMM AI/DX Competition! Mechanical Engineering students, Hansol Lim (Ph.D.), Jee Won Lee, Hanbeom Chang (Masters), and Sooyeon Yang (Undergrad), advised by Professor Jongseong Brad Choi, claimed the Grand Prize (대상) as first place winners at the prestigious KSME/KIMM AI/DX Competition. The event was organized by the Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers and the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials. The 2024 Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers Conference took place at the Jeju International Convention Center from November 6th to 9th. This year’s theme was: “Leading Global Technological Supremacy in Mechanical Engineering – From Breakthrough Core Technologies to K-Defense Technology.” Competing against 19 teams from top-tier universities in Korea, including KAIST and GIST, the SUNY Korea team stood out with their innovative approach and technical excellence, earning the highest honor. KAIST secured second and third places, followed by Ajou University and UST. The MEIC team project, EV-PINN: Physics-Informed Neural Networks for Predicting Electric Vehicle Dynamics, harnesses electric vehicle log data to accurately forecast dynamic parameters such as aerodynamic drag and engine efficiency. Additionally, EV-PINN precisely estimates the vehicle's battery power and energy consumption, showcasing significant advancements in electric vehicle technology. SUNY Korea congratulates Hansol Lim, Jee Won Lee, Hanbeom Chang, and Sooyeon Yang, (as well as advisor Jongseong Brad Choi), for such a wonderful achievement.

Mechanical Engineering Students Win Award at KSME The Mechanical Engineering senior design group, CARmodynamics, won a bronze award at the 14th KSME Student Creative Design Competition (SCDC), organized by the Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers (KSME). CARmodynamics consists of five Mechanical Engineering students: Jinkyu Lee, Yunjeong Kim, Hojin Song, Sooyeun Yang, and Sehyeon Jeong. They were selected as one of 15 teams, out of a total of 180 entries, to present at the competition. Their presentation addressed the growing problem of potholes and the need for efficient detection methods. The team developed an automated pothole detection system to replace current manual reporting methods, using a YOLO v5 deep learning model, GPS, and machine learning-based vibration analyses to accurately identify and document pothole locations. Testing was conducted with a custom-built electric vehicle, with structural integrity verified through Finite Element Analyses using ANSYS. The results validated each module's performance, demonstrating the system's potential to improve pothole detection and enhance road maintenance efficiency.

[Student Reporter] SUNY Korea Mechanical Engineering Final Project Showcase Successful On Wednesday, June 5, 2024, the SUNY Korea Mechanical Engineering Final Project Showcase was successfully held at the Incheon Global Campus. The event provided a platform for students to present their creative and innovative projects. The event began with an open viewing of the Doosan Dream Makerspace. Participants had the opportunity to explore various mechanical equipment and view the projects created by the students. The opening remarks were given by Dr. Hamid Hefazi, chair of the Mechanical Engineering department. Dr. Hefazi commended the students for their hard work and emphasized the importance of the showcase as a significant opportunity for academic growth. Students from three Mechanical Engineering classes were able to present their projects with a focus on real-world industrial applications, sharing in-dept research and experimental results. The ME classes include: the MEC 101 project presentations, the MEC 530: Applied Stress Analysis project presentations, and the MEC 440 project presentations. The projects presented were not only a display of academic prowess but also highlighted the practical application of engineering principles to solve real-world problems. Through this event, students were able to gain invaluable experience in presenting their work, receiving constructive feedback, and engaging in intellectual discourse with their audience. The showcase underscored the importance of innovation and collaboration in engineering, encouraging students to push the boundaries of their knowledge and skills. SUNY Korea's Mechanical Engineering Department remains committed to fostering an environment that nurtures academic excellence and practical expertise. By continuing to hold such events, the department aims to equip students with the necessary tools to excel in their future careers, drive technological advancements, and contribute meaningfully to society.
