Hyeon-yong Yu of Gyeongsang National University wins Best Poster Award at international conference iHSM3
- Hosted by The Korean Institute of Metals and Materials, iHSM3 in Busan… over 370 researchers from home and abroad participated
- Inconel 625·alumina functionally graded material expected to be applied for thermal barrier in power generation and aircraft engine components
Gyeongsang National University (President Kwon Jin-hoe) announced that Hyeon-yong Yu, a master's student in the Department of Nano Convergence Materials Engineering in the College of Engineering (advisor: Professor Jeonggi Kim), received the Best Poster Award at the 3rd International Conference on Heterostructured Materials (iHSM3) for his research on functionally graded materials fabricated by additive manufacturing (3D printing) technology.
iHSM3 is an international conference that deals with controlling heterogeneous microstructures of structural and functional materials, and it was held July 20 (Mon)-23 (Thu) at Hanwha Resort in Busan, hosted by The Korean Institute of Metals and Materials (President Hyoung-Seop Kim). More than 370 researchers from Korea and abroad attended, with 147 oral presentations and 168 poster presentations.
The title of the poster presented by Hyeon-yong Yu was 'Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Inconel 625/Al2O3 Functionally Graded Material Manufactured by Directed Energy Deposition'. It involved fabricating a functionally graded material combining Inconel 625 and alumina (Al2O3) via additive manufacturing and analyzing its thermal and mechanical properties.
This study verified the practical applicability of metal-ceramic functionally graded materials produced by additive manufacturing and was evaluated as a new method to enhance the thermal barrier performance of power generation equipment and aircraft engine components. The Best Poster Award was given to 25 out of the 168 poster presentations, and the award ceremony was held on July 22.
Hyeon-yong Yu said, "Taking this award as an opportunity, I will fulfill my duties as a researcher and strive to grow continuously." Advisor Professor Jeonggi Kim said, "These results confirm that thermal barrier coatings are possible with additive manufacturing," adding, "To apply this to gas turbine and aircraft engine maintenance, reliability must be ensured."
