안보위기가 청소년에 미치는 영향은?
북한 위협 고조된 2016년, 접경지역 청소년 이타성 오히려 높아져- 국립부경대 조재일 교수 연구팀, 2016년 남북 긴장 고조기 청소년 행동 변화 분석- 접경지역 청소년, 친구 돕기·봉사활동·기부·환경 실천 모두 증가…SSCI 국제학술지 게재△ 연구진 사진. 왼쪽부터 조재일, 더크 베스만(Dirk Bethmann), 다라 폭스(Dara Fox) 교수.북한의 군사적 위협이 고조되던 시기, 위협을 가까이에서 체감한 청소년들이 오히려 타인을 더 배려하고 돕는 방향으로 반응했다는 연구 결과가 나왔다.국립부경대학교 경제학과 조재일 교수(교신저자)와 고려대학교 경제학과 더크 베스만(Dirk Bethmann) 교수(제1저자), 고려대 국제어학원 다라 폭스(Dara Fox) 교수(공동저자) 연구팀은 논문 ‘In the Worst of Times, the Best of Us: External Threat and Individual Altruism at the Inter-Korean Border in 2016’을 통해 외부 위협이 개인의 이타적 행동에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 분석했다. 이 논문은 SSCI 등재 국제학술지인 ‘Journal of Happiness Studies’의 2026년 27권에 이달 게재됐다. 이 학술지는 JCR 기준 상위 7.5%, CiteScore 기준 상위 5.98%, SJR 기준 상위 4.33%에 해당하는 행복·웰빙 연구 분야의 권위를 인정받는 학술지다.2016년은 북한의 4차·5차 핵실험과 대남 확성기 방송, GPS 교란 등이 이어지며 남북 간 긴장이 크게 높아진 해였다. 연구팀은 한국아동·청소년패널조사(KCYPS) 자료로 수도권 청소년을 분석했으며, 이중차분법(Difference-in-Differences)을 활용해 위기 전후 접경지역과 비접경지역 청소년의 행동 변화를 비교했다. 분석 결과, 접경지역 청소년들은 어려움에 처한 친구를 돕고, 지역사회 봉사활동에 참여하며, 빈곤국에 기부하려는 경향이 뚜렷하게 높아진 것으로 나타났다. 물 절약과 재활용 같은 환경 실천 행동도 함께 증가했다. 외부 위협이 공동체 구성원 간의 결속과 배려를 강화하는 방향으로 작용했다는 것이다. 연구팀은 이러한 결과가 외부 위협에 직면했을 때 사람들이 서로에게 더 관대해지고, 이를 통해 공동체의 회복력(resilience)이 높아질 수 있음을 시사한다고 분석했다.연구를 주도한 조재일 교수는 “이번 연구는 안보 위기가 청소년의 건강에 부정적 영향을 미친다는 기존 연구에서 나아가, 위기 상황이 공동체 안의 배려와 연대를 이끌어내는 측면도 있음을 실증적으로 보여줬다는 데 의미가 있다”라며, “어려운 시기일수록 공동체가 서로를 돕는 힘을 통해 고난을 이겨낼 수 있다는 점에서 희망적인 메시지를 담고 있다”고 밝혔다. <부경투데이>
동해 오징어 2040년엔 '0'
동해 오징어 2040년엔 '0'
국립부경대 연구팀 “동해 오징어 어획량, 2040년 0에 이를 위험”- 기후변화에 따른 ‘라니냐-해양열파-포식자 유입’ 연관성 규명- 해양공학과 김경회·이인철 교수팀, 네이처 자매 학술지에 연구 결과 게재△ 기후 강제력이 동해 생태계에 미치는 연쇄적 영향을 나타낸 이미지. “일시적 자원 변동 아닌 비가역적 생태계 재편 가능성…한일 등 주변국 공동 관리 시급”국립부경대학교(총장 배상훈) 해양공학과 김경회·이인철 교수 연구팀이 기후변화와 해양열파가 동해 오징어 어획량 급감에 미치는 영향을 규명하고, 연구 결과를 세계적 학술지 네이처(Nature)의 자매 학술지인 Communications Earth & Environment에 게재했다.이번 연구의 제1저자인 국립부경대 해양산업개발연구소 박성식 전임연구원을 비롯해 국립수산과학원 윤석진 연구사 등이 연구에 참여했다. 연구팀은 1993년부터 2025년까지 약 30년간의 관측 자료를 분석해, 초여름(6~7월)에 강해진 라니냐가 대기와 해양의 상호작용을 통해 동해 주요 어장의 가을·겨울철 해양열파를 강화하는 ‘원격상관 경로’를 규명했다.분석 결과, 강한 라니냐가 발달한 해(1999년, 2010년, 2021년, 2022년, 2025년)에는 동해 주요 어장의 가을·겨울철 해수면 온도 이상치가 평균 0.9℃에 달했다. 라니냐로 서부 북태평양의 대기 순환이 변화하고 동중국해 상공의 동풍이 강해지면, 우리나라 남해의 해수면이 상승하면서 쓰시마난류를 통한 대한해협의 열 수송이 증가한다. 이 과정에서 동해 어장의 수온도 높아지는 것으로 분석됐다.연구팀은 통계적 순차 매개분석을 통해 살오징어(Todarodes pacificus) 어획량 급감에 복합적인 환경 요인이 작용했음을 확인했다. 장기적인 수온 상승으로 오징어의 서식 환경이 악화되는 가운데, 해양열파로 인한 단기적인 급격한 수온 상승이 개체군에 열 스트레스를 가하고, 고수온 환경에 적응한 포식자의 유입으로 포식 압력까지 커졌다는 설명이다.기후모델 예측 결과도 우려스럽다. 연구팀은 온난화가 지속될 경우, 다양한 온실가스 배출 시나리오에서 2040년까지 동해 오징어 어업의 어획량이 0에 가까워질 위험이 있다고 전망했다.연구팀은 이번 연구 결과가 오징어 자원의 감소를 일시적인 변동만으로 설명하기 어렵다는 점을 보여주며, 기후변화로 인한 해양 생태계의 비가역적 구조 재편 가능성을 시사한다고 설명했다. 아울러 오징어와 같은 수산자원은 국가 간 해역을 이동하는 만큼, 한국과 일본 등 주변국이 기후변화에 대응하는 공동 관리 체계를 선제적으로 구축해야 한다고 강조했다.이번 연구는 초여름 라니냐 지수를 활용해 가을·겨울철 해양열파 발생 가능성을 사전에 예측할 수 있는 가능성을 제시했다. 연구팀은 이러한 결과가 선제적인 어업 관리와 수산자원 정책 수립에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대하고 있다. <부경투데이>

This approach significantly reduces mechanical softening―the tendency of a rigid material to become softer―at high temperatures, a major limitation of conventional liquid crystal artificial muscles. Liquid crystal elastomers are soft and flexible like rubber while also being capable of contracting in response to stimuli such as heat or light, making them promising key materials for artificial muscles and soft robots. However, conventional LCEs tend to soften at the high temperatures where contraction becomes most active, making it difficult for them to sustain sufficient force. To address this issue, the research team focused on the crosslinker, which until now had been regarded simply as a component that connects and fixes polymer chains. In conventional liquid crystal elastomers, elongated, rod-shaped liquid crystal mesogens in the main chains are aligned in a specific direction, while the crosslinkers connecting these chains are generally flexible or lack a distinct directional structure. Starting from the idea, “If liquid crystal chains have directionality, why not design the crosslinkers connecting them to resemble liquid crystal mesogens as well?” the team designed a new crosslinker called PBB-TT, featuring an elongated, rigid core structure similar to that of liquid crystal mesogens. This transformed the crosslinks from simple “connection points” that hold chains together into “molecular reinforcement points” that work in harmony with the liquid crystal molecules to support and transmit force. Importantly, the new crosslinker incorporates not only a rigid structure but also flexible linking segments, preventing the material from becoming excessively stiff and restricting the movement of the liquid crystals. As a result, the LCE maintained its mechanical strength at high temperatures while preserving the large contraction characteristic of liquid crystal elastomers. The developed artificial muscle contracted by more than 30% even while supporting an actual load and maintained stable performance over repeated actuation cycles. An artificial muscle incorporating an electrical heating structure also successfully lifted a 1 kg load. The research team also utilized the material’s remaining photoreactivity to develop a technique for directly bonding LCE films to one another without using a separate adhesive. Using this technique, the researchers fabricated not only electrically driven artificial muscles but also a soft gripper capable of grasping and releasing objects. They also confirmed that damaged artificial muscles could be rejoined to recover most of their original performance. The significance of this study lies in redesigning the molecular structure of the liquid crystal elastomer itself, rather than adding separate reinforcing materials such as carbon nanotubes or graphene. While conventional LCE networks combine directionally aligned liquid crystal mesogens with non-directional crosslinks, the new approach designs the crosslinkers themselves to resemble the liquid crystal mesogens in the main chains, thereby integrating the directionality of the entire network and the transmission of force at the molecular level. Professor Dae-Seok Kim explained, “The main chains of liquid crystal elastomers already contain directionally aligned, rod-shaped mesogens, but conventional crosslinkers have largely been limited to simply connecting the chains. The key to this study was to give the crosslinkers a directional structure resembling that of liquid crystal mesogens, transforming simple molecular connection points into reinforcement points that actually support and transmit force.” He added, “For artificial muscles to perform actual work, they must not only produce large movements but also maintain sufficient force while moving. This study demonstrates the potential of high-power liquid crystal artificial muscles through a new molecular design strategy based on the structure and directionality of crosslinkers, and we expect the approach to be extended to a wide range of applications, including soft robots and wearable actuators.” The paper presenting the findings, titled “Mesogen-Mimetic Anisotropic Crosslinkers for Load-Bearing Liquid Crystal Elastomer Artificial Muscles,” was published on September 8 in Angewandte Chemie International Edition (IF 17.6), a world-renowned international journal in the fields of chemistry and materials science. 2026-10-01
PKNU Research 1000 Han-Sang Kwon | Develop Iron-Copper-Silver Composite Powder with Ferromagnetism and High Electrical Conductivity Pukyong National University and Japan’s AIST Jointly Develop Iron-Copper-Silver Composite Powder with Ferromagnetism and High Electrical Conductivity- Korea-Japan joint research achievement … Expected to be used as a conductive filler for semiconductor test sockets- Superior electrical conductivity compared with conventional nickel powder demonstrated … Patent applications underway in Korea and abroad Pukyong National University and Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) have jointly developed an iron (Fe)-copper (Cu)-silver (Ag) composite powder that combines ferromagnetism with high electrical conductivity through international collaborative research. As demand for high-performance conductive materials continues to grow with the miniaturization of semiconductors and the increasing number of pins, the newly developed material is expected to have potential applications as a conductive filler for next-generation semiconductor test sockets. Professor Han-Sang Kwon’s research team in the Major of Materials System Engineering at Pukyong National University jointly developed the Fe-Cu-Ag composite powder with researchers including Dr. Kwang-Jae Park of AIST’s Multi-Materials Research Institute and characterized its magnetic, electrical, and mechanical properties. The research findings were presented on September 11 at the 87th Autumn Meeting of the Japan Society of Applied Physics in Sapporo, Japan. The research team produced the Fe-Cu-Ag composite powder by combining ferromagnetic Fe with Cu and Ag, both of which have high electrical conductivity. In particular, the team designed an Fe:Cu:Ag mass ratio of 3:5:2 and applied gas atomization and thermal plasma methods to synthesize micro-composite powder with an average particle size of approximately 50 μm and nano-composite powder of approximately 100 nm, respectively. The developed composite powders exhibited higher electrical conductivity than nickel (Ni) powder, which is widely used in conventional semiconductor test sockets. Their saturation magnetization, a measure of the maximum magnetization a material can attain, was also higher than or comparable to that of Ni (approximately 57 emu/g), reaching approximately 63 emu/g for the micro-composite powder and 56 emu/g for the nano-composite powder. The micro-composite powder also recorded a Vickers hardness of 127 HV, higher than the 100-110 HV of Ni powder, demonstrating its potential for superior mechanical properties as well. The key to this study lies in utilizing the immiscible nature of Fe, Cu, and Ag to create a composite microstructure in which Fe provides magnetic functionality, while Cu and Ag provide high electrical conductivity. In the micro-composite powder, Fe and Cu were dispersed within an Ag-based matrix, while the nano-composite powder formed a structure in which Fe was concentrated at the center of the particles, with Cu and Ag distributed toward the outer regions. These properties are expected to make the material suitable for use as a conductive filler in elastomer-based semiconductor test sockets. Because conductive fillers provide the electrical connection between semiconductor terminals and testing equipment, they require not only high electrical conductivity but also appropriate mechanical strength and durability. In particular, the use of ferromagnetic materials makes it possible to apply a magnetic field during manufacturing to align conductive particles in the desired direction. Professor Han-Sang Kwon said, “This study presents a new material design strategy that can overcome the limitations of conventional materials by combining the ferromagnetism of Fe with the high electrical conductivity of Cu and Ag in a single composite powder. Going forward, we plan to expand its potential applications beyond semiconductor test sockets to a wide range of electronic and electrical materials in which conductive pathways can be controlled using magnetic fields.” The research team plans to optimize the powder’s composition, particle size, and microstructure for application in actual silicone rubber-based test sockets and evaluate its contact resistance, durability under repeated use, and signal transmission characteristics. Patent applications for the technology are currently underway in Korea and abroad, and the team plans to pursue its commercialization for materials used in semiconductor testing processes. 2026-10-01
PKNU Research 1000 Min-Seok Kwak | Selected as Cover Article for International Journal ‘Chem’ Pukyong National University Professor Min-Seok Kwak’s ‘DNA Ultrasound Molecular Switch’ Study Selected as Cover Article for International Journal ‘Chem’- Technology uses DNA to transmit ultrasonic force and selectively break only targeted molecular bonds- Enables precise mechanochemical reactions … Expected applications in drug delivery, biosensors, and moreProfessor Min-Seok Kwak’s research team in the Department of Chemistry at Pukyong National University has developed a new “DNA ultrasound molecular switch” platform that uses DNA to precisely transmit the mechanical force of ultrasound to specific molecular bonds, enabling selective activation of targeted bonds. The study uses DNA not as a biomolecule but as a precise molecular tool for transmitting mechanical force. Following its online publication on March 3, the research attracted attention in Korea and abroad and has now been recognized for its academic excellence by being selected as the Cover Article for the September 2026 issue (Vol. 12, No. 9) of Chem, a world-renowned journal in the field of chemistry. Published by Cell Press, Chem is a leading journal covering all areas of chemistry and selects only one study per issue to feature on its cover. The paper, titled “DNA-mediated force transmission for precise and efficient mechanochemical activation,” lists Dr. Gyu-Rin Kim of Pukyong National University as the first author, with Professor Min-Seok Kwak of Pukyong National University and Professor Andreas Herrmann of RWTH Aachen University in Germany as corresponding authors. Professors Hyun-Wook Kang and Hae-Gyun Lim of the Major of Biomedical Engineering at Pukyong National University also participated as co-researchers. The research team overcame the limitations of conventional mechanochemical techniques by utilizing the structural properties of the DNA double helix to concentrate the mechanical force generated by ultrasound at specific sites. Experiments showed that the team successfully cleaved specifically designed force-responsive molecular bonds with high selectivity and efficiency without damaging the DNA itself. In particular, DNA structures longer than 250 base pairs (bp) achieved a cleavage rate of 99.9% at the target site within 15 minutes. In experiments using 1 MHz low-intensity ultrasound under skin-like conditions, the system also consistently achieved more than 80% selective cleavage without DNA damage, demonstrating its potential for applications in actual biological environments. A key feature of the study is the ability to control the magnitude of transmitted mechanical force by adjusting the length of the DNA. Using PCR, the researchers varied the DNA length from 100 to 1,000 base pairs and found that longer DNA transmitted greater force to the target molecule. These findings provide a foundation for designing molecular-level mechanical reactions by controlling experimental parameters such as ultrasound frequency and DNA length. The newly developed technology has the potential to be extended to a wide range of biomaterial applications, including ultrasound-triggered drug release systems, biosensors, and mechanically responsive therapeutic materials, as it enables specific molecular bonds to be activated at targeted locations by applying ultrasound externally. The cover of the September 2026 issue of Chem illustrates the principle behind the study through the metaphor of piloting a submersible. It depicts a researcher turning dials representing ultrasound frequency and DNA length to precisely activate a single targeted molecular bond in an aqueous environment. Against a backdrop of ultrasound operating underwater, the DNA double helix is portrayed as a force-transmission device, while the mechanophore at the center of the DNA represents the target site where the ultrasonic force is concentrated. The cover also visually captures a key feature of the study: the ability to control the mechanochemical activation of a targeted molecular bond by adjusting parameters such as ultrasound frequency and DNA length. Professor Min-Seok Kwak said, “If conventional polymer-based mechanophores are like hammers that distribute force broadly, this DNA-based mechanophore is more like a surgical scalpel that precisely targets a specific molecular bond. We expect this platform combining ultrasound and DNA to eventually develop into a precision therapeutic technology capable of releasing drugs at the desired location inside the body at the right time.” The research team plans to further expand the platform by integrating it with various biomaterials, including DNA nanostructures and nanoparticle assemblies, for applications such as ultrasound-activated drug delivery systems, biosensors, and mechanically responsive therapeutic materials. The study was supported by the Nano and Materials Technology Development Program and the Regional Innovation Leading Research Center Program funded by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Research Foundation of Korea. 2026-10-01
PKNU Research 1000 Gyun Heo | ‘Educational Drama’ Proven Effective in Enhancing Core Competencies Korea-China Joint Study on the Effects of Educational Drama on Core Competencies to Be Published in International Journal- Study demonstrates educational drama’s effectiveness in enhancing creativity, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration skills- Paper by Pukyong National University and Changzhi University research team accepted for publication in ‘Frontiers in Psychology’A study has found that educational drama can have an overall positive effect on enhancing students’ key competencies, including creativity, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration. Doctoral students Yuan Li and Xinyuan Zhang of the Department of Education Consulting at Pukyong National University Graduate School and Professor Gyun Heo of the Department of Fisheries and Marine Industries Education systematically analyzed the effects of educational drama on students’ key competencies in their paper, “The Effects of Educational Drama on Students’ Key Competencies: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.” The paper has been accepted for publication in the Educational Psychology section of Volume 17 (2026) of Frontiers in Psychology, an SSCI-indexed international journal, and is currently awaiting final publication. The study is significant in that it evaluates the effects of educational drama through a meta-analysis synthesizing multiple controlled studies, rather than relying on individual cases. The research team systematically searched major academic databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and ProQuest Central, while using Google Scholar as a supplementary source to review studies on educational drama published through 2025. Of the 1,855 studies initially identified, the team selected 27 controlled studies that examined the effects of educational drama on key competencies such as creativity, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration, and conducted a meta-analysis of data from a total of 2,239 participants. The analysis found that educational drama had an overall positive effect on enhancing students’ key competencies, including creativity, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration. The findings suggest that participation-centered educational drama activities, such as role-playing, scenario-based activities, improvisation, and collaborative interaction, can contribute to improving students’ thinking, expressive, and interpersonal skills. Professor Gyun Heo said, “This study is significant in that it quantitatively synthesizes the educational value of educational drama from the perspective of 21st-century key competencies. In particular, its publication in an SSCI-indexed international journal provides international academic evidence supporting the effectiveness of educational drama in enhancing key competencies.” Meanwhile, Yuan Li, a member of the research team, has been dedicated to research since coming to Pukyong National University from China through the Global PKNU Graduate Degree Program for Faculty and Staff of Overseas Universities. Li is currently an associate professor in the Department of Journalism and New Media at Changzhi University in China, while pursuing a doctoral degree in the Department of Education Consulting at Pukyong National University Graduate School.

PKNU Research 1000 Joong-Ho Shin | On-Site Diagnostic Technology Developed to Detect Vibrio Bacteria within One Hour Vibrio Testing That Once Took a Full Day Can Now Be Completed in Just One Hour- Pukyong National University Researchers Develop On-Site Diagnostic Technology for Vibrio Bacteria- Paper-Based Diagnostic Device Automates Complex Genetic Testing Researchers at Pukyong National University have developed a paper-based diagnostic device capable of detecting Vibrio vulnificus, a potentially fatal foodborne bacterium found in seafood such as oysters, on site in approximately one hour. Unlike conventional commercial test kits, which rely on laboratory-based testing that requires specialized equipment and trained personnel, the newly developed portable device mechanically automates the processes of genetic amplification and detection. This allows the device to be used relatively easily in the field or at small-scale facilities. Vibrio vulnificus is a bacterium found in seawater and seafood. Infection can occur through the consumption of contaminated raw oysters and other seafood or through open wounds, potentially causing sepsis and tissue necrosis. Rapid detection and management are particularly important because the bacterium can be fatal for people with liver disease or weakened immune systems. Commercial real-time PCR kits currently widely used for food safety testing can identify multiple Vibrio species with high accuracy. However, the testing process is complex, requiring samples to be cultured for a certain period and then analyzed using PCR equipment in a specialized laboratory. Results typically take about a day, while the need for expensive equipment and trained personnel limits the use of these methods in field settings.  The device, developed by a research team including doctoral student Won Han of the Department of Industry 4.0 Convergence Bionics Engineering at Pukyong National University as the first author and Professor Joong-Ho Shin of the Major of Biomedical Engineering as the corresponding author, addresses the limitations of conventional testing methods. After a sample is collected from an oyster’s gills using a swab and its DNA is extracted, the sample and buffer solution are placed on a paper pad inside the device. Once the spring mechanism is wounded, the device operates automatically, sequentially carrying out genetic amplification and detection reactions. The device minimizes complex fluid handling and multi-step manual procedures. After approximately one hour, the test result can be determined simply by visually checking the test line that appears on the paper strip. No complex equipment is required, other than maintaining a temperature of approximately 37°C. In pure cultures, the device was able to detect as little as a single bacterial cell per reaction. It also reliably identified contamination in oysters raised in seawater artificially contaminated with Vibrio bacteria. In addition, the device was able to distinguish the target bacterium from other closely related Vibrio species. The paper-based reaction pads maintained their performance with little degradation even after being stored at room temperature for several weeks. The researchers said, “While existing commercial PCR kits are designed primarily for laboratory-based testing, this device focuses on automating the testing process so that it can be used relatively easily in the field or at small-scale facilities.” They added, “By changing the reagents to target specific pathogens, we expect the device could also be applied to the detection of a wide range of pathogens.” The study, titled “Field-Deployable Paper-Based Detection of Vibrio vulnificus via Mechanically Automated Sequential RPA/CRISPR-Cas12a,” was published in the August issue of ACS Sensors (IF 10.9), an international journal in the field of sensor research. The study was supported by the Core Research Program of the National Research Foundation of Korea, the Academic Research Support Program for Science and Engineering Fields of the Ministry of Education (including the Doctoral Student Research Incentive Program and the University-Focused Research Institute Support Program - Marine Bionics Convergence Technology Center), and the Ministry of Education’s BK21 Program (Smart Healthcare Program for New Seniors). 2026-09-08
PKNU Research 1000 Dae-Seok Kim | Technology Developed for the Future of Smart Livestock Farming Pukyong National University Researchers Develop Light-Activated Microneedle Soft Robot for Remote Injection in Future Smart Livestock Farming- Professor Dae-Seok Kim’s Team Publishes Findings in the International Materials Chemistry Journal Advanced Functional MaterialsA joint research team at Pukyong National University has developed a new soft actuator technology that generates a rapid, powerful force from a light-responsive soft material to insert microneedles into the skin. The research team, led by Professor Dae-Seok Kim and master’s student Chae-Won Lee of the Major of Polymer Engineering, together with Professor Seung-Hyun Park and integrated master’s and doctoral student Nan-Kyung Kim of the Major of Human Bio-Convergence, successfully developed a high-output remote microneedle actuation system that combines a light-responsive liquid crystal elastomer (LCE), magnets, and a snap-through structure. Liquid crystal elastomers are soft and flexible like rubber yet can change their shape in response to external stimuli such as light or heat, making them promising key materials for soft robots and artificial muscles. However, conventional liquid crystal elastomers have limitations in that they deform relatively slowly and have difficulty generating large amounts of force instantaneously. To overcome these limitations, the researchers utilized the snap-through phenomenon, in which a structure that stores elastic energy―like an inverted umbrella or a bent hairpin―suddenly “snaps” into a reversed configuration once it reaches a critical point. The researchers fabricated an azobenzene-based liquid crystal elastomer that responds to light in a bow-shaped arch structure. When exposed to ultraviolet light, changes in the molecular alignment within the material caused elastic energy to accumulate. Once the stored energy reached a critical level, the structure rapidly snapped through, generating fast motion. The team then incorporated the attractive force of permanent magnets to lower the threshold for snap-through and enable the stored energy to be released more rapidly and powerfully. The maximum speed, which was approximately 140 mm per second when driven by light alone, increased to approximately 332 mm per second after the magnets were incorporated. The maximum actuation force also increased by approximately 14.6 times. This does not mean that the magnets drive the device on their own. Rather, as the light-deformed liquid crystal elastomer approaches its critical point, magnetic force amplifies the final release of stored energy. In this way, the system structurally overcomes the low-output limitations of conventional soft actuators while preserving the flexibility and remote controllability of soft materials. The research team also combined the developed actuator with fine, precisely fabricated polymer microneedles and verified their skin insertion performance. When exposed to light, the arch-shaped structure rapidly snaps downward, delivering a strong instantaneous impact to the microneedles and driving them into the skin. Experiments showed that the microneedles were successfully inserted not only into gelatin structures designed to mimic skin, but also into actual pig skin tissue. In the pig skin, the microneedles reached an average depth of approximately 364 μm (micrometers), and a fluorescent substance used to simulate a drug was observed spreading around the insertion sites. The researchers also confirmed that the insertion depth and diffusion area of the substance could be controlled by adjusting the length and number of microneedles in the array. The technology is considered to open up the possibility of “active smart livestock farming,” moving beyond conventional smart livestock systems that primarily monitor animal health through sensors to systems capable of performing actual treatment when needed. In the future, combining a reusable liquid crystal elastomer?magnet module with replaceable microneedle cartridges could enable the technology to be expanded into an automated precision treatment system. Professor Dae-Seok Kim said, “The key to this study is that small molecular-scale deformations induced by light are amplified through a snap-through structure and magnetic force, converting them into a strong mechanical impact.” He added, “We expect this technology to find applications not only in smart livestock farming, but also in a wide range of fields requiring precise and remote control, including wearable medical devices, biointerfaces, and soft robotics.” The paper presenting the research findings, titled “Snap-Through-Driven Liquid Crystal Elastomers for High-Power Remote Microneedle Actuation toward Smart Livestock Systems,” was published online on August 7 in 『Advanced Functional Materials』(IF: 19.9), a leading international journal in the field of materials science. 2026-08-27
PKNU Research 1000 Kyung-Ho Kim | High-Capacity Anode Material Developed for Next-Generation Sodium-Ion Batteries Pukyong National University Develops High-Capacity Anode Material for Next-Generation Sodium-Ion Batteries-Professor Kyung-Ho Kim’s Research Team Achieves High-Rate, High-Capacity Performance Using Abundant Raw Materials-Findings Published in the International Journal ‘Advanced Science’Professor Kyung-Ho Kim’s research team in the Major of Materials Science and Engineering at Pukyong National University has developed a new anode material that can overcome the limitations of hard carbon anodes used in commercial sodium-ion batteries, particularly their relatively low capacity and limited high-rate performance. The team developed a new magnesium phosphide (MgP₄) anode material based on magnesium (Mg) and red phosphorus (P), both of which are abundant resources with relatively stable supply chains. They then applied a stepwise carbon-compositing technique in which a small amount of MgP₄ is incorporated into a hard carbon matrix. The approach was inspired by graphite?silicon composite anode technology, which is widely used in lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles. In lithium-ion batteries, a commercialized approach involves incorporating a small amount of high-capacity silicon into lower-capacity graphite to increase energy density. Sodium-ion batteries have attracted attention as an alternative to lithium-ion batteries due to their cost competitiveness and safety. However, because they use sodium ions instead of lithium ions, silicon cannot exhibit the same high-capacity characteristics. This makes it difficult to directly apply the composite anode strategy used in lithium-ion batteries. To address this challenge, the research team introduced magnesium phosphide (MgP₄), formed by alloying magnesium (Mg) with red phosphorus (P), a potential alternative to silicon, to overcome the flammability and low electrical conductivity of red phosphorus. By incorporating MgP₄ into hard carbon through a stepwise compositing process, the team successfully improved both capacity and high-rate charge?discharge performance while maintaining the excellent stability and processability of hard carbon. Professor Kyung-Ho Kim said, “This study confirmed the potential of hard carbon-based composite anodes. If the performance of the composite is further improved through additional modification and particle-size control of high-capacity compounds while minimizing the amount added to hard carbon, we expect it could develop into a next-generation hard carbon composite anode platform following the single hard carbon anodes currently at the commercialization stage.” The research team included Professor Kyung-Ho Kim of Pukyong National University as the corresponding author, post-master’s researcher Si-On Ha as the first author, master’s student Dong-Won Kim, doctoral student Do-Yeon Lee of Seoul National University, Dr. Won-Sik Kim, Professor Sung-Hyun Hong, and Dr. Min-Gyu Lee of Northwestern University in the United States. The study was supported by the Individual Basic Research Program and the Innovation Research Center (IRC) Program funded by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Research Foundation of Korea. The paper presenting the findings, titled “MgP4/CNT-Graphene Embedded in Hard Carbon Matrix as a High-Capacity Anode for Next-Generation Sodium-Ion Batteries,” was published in the July issue of ‘Advanced Science’ (IF 14.1), a leading international journal in materials engineering and interdisciplinary science. 2026-08-27
PKNU Research 1000 Gyun Heo | Development of the Chinese Version of the Proactive Initiation Scale “Measuring the Tendency to Start Tasks Early Rather Than Procrastinate―Scientifically”― Pukyong National University Research Team Develops the Proactive Initiation Scale; Study Accepted for Publication in an SSCI-Indexed International Journal Unlike procrastination―the tendency to delay tasks―a scale has been developed to measure precrastination among Chinese university students. Precrastination refers to the tendency to begin or complete tasks or subgoals as early as possible, even when doing so requires additional effort or cost. A research team comprising doctoral student Peng Zhang of the Department of Educational Consulting at the Graduate School of Pukyong National University, Research Professor Soon-An Hyun of the Fisheries and Marine Sciences Education Research Institute, and Professor Gyun Heo verified the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the Precrastination Scale (PS-C) in their paper, “Psychometric Properties of the Chinese Version of the Precrastination Scale.” The paper has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, an SSCI-indexed international journal published by SAGE, and is currently undergoing the final publication process. The journal specializes in psychological and educational assessment, as well as the development and validation of measurement instruments. The researchers developed the Chinese version of the Precrastination Scale (PS-C) to measure the tendency to begin tasks early rather than delay them and verified its psychometric reliability and validity. To do so, they conducted item analysis and exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses using data from 648 university students in Beijing, Shanxi Province, and Guizhou Province, China. Of these participants, 277 completed the same assessment again four weeks later. The analysis showed that the newly developed scale demonstrated high internal consistency and test-retest reliability. The researchers also confirmed a single-factor structure that measures precrastination as a single trait, as well as gender measurement invariance, indicating that the scale can be applied using the same criteria to both male and female students. In addition, students with higher levels of precrastination tended to procrastinate less, consider future consequences more carefully, and regulate their behavior more effectively, supporting the scale’s criterion-related validity. The researchers noted, however, that beginning tasks as early as possible is not always the most efficient approach. Students with a strong tendency toward precrastination may therefore benefit from training in prioritizing more important tasks, while those with a weaker tendency may require support in time management and behavioral implementation to help them begin assignments on time. Professor Gyun Heo said, “This study is meaningful in that it has established a highly reliable and valid psychometric instrument for measuring precrastination among Chinese-speaking university students.” He added, “Its publication in an SSCI-indexed international journal also demonstrates the potential for the international expansion of education-based research on psychometric instrument development.” Meanwhile, doctoral student Peng Zhang, a member of the research team, has been devoted to his research since coming to Pukyong National University from China through the Global PKNU Graduate Degree Program for Overseas University Faculty and Staff. He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in the Department of Educational Consulting at the Graduate School of Pukyong National University while also serving as a researcher at L-liang University in China, where he continues to study adolescent emotional processing, educational psychology, and psychometrics. Supported by the 2025 PhiNX Graduate Student Research Scholarship Program for Protected Academic Disciplines, Zhang published a first-author paper in the KCI-indexed . To date, he has published three papers in KCI-indexed journals. In June, he also achieved publication as the first author of an SSCI-indexed international journal article on cognitive bias in shy adolescents. Research Professor Soon-An Hyun earned a Ph.D. in Education from the Department of Educational Consulting at the Graduate School of Pukyong National University. She was subsequently selected as a 2026 Humanities and Social Sciences Academic Research Professor by the National Research Foundation of Korea and is currently conducting research as an academic research professor at Pukyong National University’s Fisheries and Marine Sciences Education Research Institute, headed by Professor Hyo-Heon Won, with five years of research support. She also works to strengthen students’ capabilities by teaching related courses in the undergraduate Department of Fisheries and Marine Industries Education and the graduate Department of Educational Consulting. Having previously served as an academic research professor at institutions including Tongmyong University and Sunchon National University, she has devoted herself to research in educational technology, AI education, educational assessment, adolescent cognition and emotion, and psychometrics. In this study, Soon-An Hyun contributed to the interpretation of the data and enhanced the paper’s theoretical and methodological rigor. She has recently produced numerous research outcomes in Korea and abroad, including the publication of two papers in SCIE- and SSCI-indexed journals this year alone. Professor Gyun Heo, who supervised the study, has conducted research primarily in the fields of educational technology, AI-based education, big data analytics, and advanced quantitative research methodology. He has also mentored graduate students and early-career researchers in publishing their work in both international and domestic academic journals. This achievement is regarded as a demonstration of the global research competitiveness of Pukyong National University, reflecting the international expansion of the expertise in educational psychology and psychometrics cultivated by the undergraduate Department of Fisheries and Marine Industries Education, headed by Professor Tae-Ho Lee, and the graduate Department of Educational Consulting and Department of Fisheries and Marine Human Resources Development. 2026-08-03
