The memorial service of the disciples who honored Master who died 7 years ago

What kind of love was so deep?

The disciples are attracted by the warm remembrance of a teacher who died seven years ago.

Disciples who did not forget Professor Yang Bo-seok of Pukyong National University (Mechanical Design Engineering Department) named 'Yang Bo-seok Seminar Room' named after Master and installed memorial bust of teacher (right picture) at entrance of seminar room.

The alumni association of intelligent epidemiology lab (Chairman Choi Won-ho, student number 79, doctor 1st period) held 'Pukyong National University mechanical design engineering professor Yang Bo-seok professor memorial bust unveiling ceremony' on the 20th in Pukyong National University engineering 1st building room 622.

At the ceremony, professors of mechanical design engineering professors attended 20 alumni including alumni association chairperson Kim Sang-Bong, vice-president of industry-academy cooperation team of PKNU, professor Kang In-pil, professor Lee Yeon-won, and Kim Seon-jin.

Professor Yang, who was appointed to Pukyong National University in 1985, is a world-renowned scientist who pioneered the field of 'mechanical vibration'. Unfortunately, he did recover from the disease and died in 2012.

Professor Yang's research papers on the diagnosis and prediction of mechanical health status are unique worldwide. It is known to be constantly quoted in the world because it can reduce the huge losses caused by machinery faults in the industry.

In November 2015, when he was three years after his death, Lee So-hwan, the chairman of Shinho ENT, a disciple who did not forget his deceased master, donated 60 million won to the university under the title of "Yang Bo-seok Scholarship".

In the making of this memorial bust, the disciples who love professor Yang have agreed to do this.

What memories do alumni have to the mentor?

- "His lecture notes have changed every year, the lessons have been rigorous and the tests have been very difficult."

- "The students who passed the professor's intelligent epidemiology lab only paid the tuition for the first semester of the four semesters, and the professor gave fee for the other semesters."

- "The only remaining property was a small apartment and an old passenger car, so the professor was a true resident of this age who loved only research and disciples."

His professors' memorial bust was filled with his biography and achievements.

- "You have trained 74 masters and 26 doctors and have made many achievements in vibration analysis and optimum design of rotating machine, monitoring of condition of rotating machine and diagnosis of abnormality."

But the deep love of the Master, how many lines can we write?, the love is not over yet.

That warm eye of the bust will give pride and love to the many disciples who come and go in this particular space. <Pukyong Today>
