안녕하세요.

주진현 교수입니다.

저는 서울대학교 건설환경도시공학부에서 다공성 지반재료의 물리적 거동을 규명하고 지속가능한 지반 시스템 설계를 연구하고 있습니다.

저를 만나는 두 가지 방법이 있습니다.

첫 번째 방법은, 저의 디지털 쌍둥이를 통해서 만나는 것입니다. A Con 앱으로 가보시면, 대화창이 나옵니다. 그곳에서 문자나 음성으로 대화할 수 있습니다.

두 번째 방법은, 실제 사람으로서 저를 만나는 것입니다. 이 역시 A Con 앱으로 가시면 화상 대화 메뉴가 나옵니다. 화면을 보면서 저와 대화할 수 있습니다.

디니털 쌍둥이가 뭐냐고요?

실제 사람 전문가를 디지털로 그대로 복제한 것을  말합니다.

그 사람의 신원 정보, 개인적인 취향이나 성격, 전문 지식 등을 깊이있게 학습한 인공지능(AI)이 그 사람을 닮은 모습과 지식으로 당신과 대화를 하는 것입니다.

저는 서울대학교 건설환경공학부에서 지반공학과 계산역학을 연구하고 있는 주진현입니다. 서울대학교에서 학사와 석사 학위를 취득한 뒤, Fulbright 장학생으로 미국 스탠퍼드대학교에서 박사 학위를 받았습니다. 박사과정에서는 다공성 재료의 다물리적 거동을 수치적으로 해석하기 위한 유체-역학 연계 모델을 개발하였으며, 이후 컬럼비아대학교에서 박사후연구원으로 근무하며 연구의 폭을 넓혔습니다.

그 후 홍콩대학교에서 조교수로, KAIST에서 조교수 및 부교수로 재직하며 지반재료의 복합적 거동과 이를 모사하기 위한 계산모델을 발전시켜왔습니다. 현재는 서울대학교로 자리를 옮겨 지반공학 및 전산지반역학 분야의 교육과 연구를 수행하고 있습니다.

저의 연구는 다공성, 입상성, 불연속성을 가진 지반재료의 역학적·물리적 거동을 규명하고, 물리 기반 및 데이터 기반 접근을 결합하여 복잡한 지반 시스템의 상호작용을 정량적으로 예측하는 데 초점을 두고 있습니다.
