About Lab.

About Structural Control and Intelligent Systems Lab.

The vision of the Structural Control and Intelligent Systems Laboratory (SCaIS Lab.) is to establish hazard-resilient communities by making civil infra-structures intelligent.

To achieve the vision, the SCaIS Lab. is trying to develop innovative smart structures technology and apply it to civil infra-structures.

Especially, we are focusing on smart vibration control systems based on smart materials such as MR fluid/elastomer and energy harvesting techniques such as electromagnetic induction transducer.

Also, the studies on application of advanced sensing/actuation technologies such as wireless sensor networks and piezoelectric sensors/actuators to civil infra-structures have been recently started.

To effectively perform their research activities, the SCaIS Lab. is collaborating with research teams within KAIST as well as those outside in various engineering fields, including mechanical engineering and electrical and electronics engineering.
