On November 16, 2024, the DTU School of Engineering & Technology (SET) held its fourth annual Science Conference. The event served as a forum where scientists, lecturers, and PhD students could exchange and share new research findings, and it fostered creativity and the practical application of science.
A large number of SET staff, lecturers, and students attended the fourth Science Conference
“This year’s conference has attracted the active participation of numerous staff, lecturers, PhD students, and master’s students with high-quality submissions from the School’s six faculties and three centers in addition to presentations from external guest contributors,” standing SET Vice Provost Assoc.Prof. Dr Ha Dac Binh, chair of the scientific council, emphasized in his opening remarks. “This is an annual event to promote scientific research and academic exchange among the lecturers of the School of Engineering & Technology. The conference furthermore provides young lecturers, PhD students, and master’s students with a chance to develop their research skills, so as to better meet the demands of their work and studies.”
This year marks the 4th time the SET has held its Science Conference. The event featured twenty presentations divided into three subsessions:
? Electrical Engineering and Automation with seven talks,
? Mechanical & Civil Engineering with seven talks, and
? Environmental & Natural Sciences, Architecture, and Arts with six talks.
Assoc.Prof. Dr Ha Dac Binh awarded the best talks at the conference
The science talks focused on various advanced fields this year, such as renewable energy, artificial intelligence, environmental solutions, and public health protection. Notably, the applied research presentation were not only highly practical but also highlighted the capacity for in-depth research of DTU faculty and staff.
To close the conference, the organizers awarded first prizes to the most outstanding talks from each of the three subsessions:
? Electrical Engineering and Automation: “Energy and latency analysis of VMEC for NOMA and backscatter” by Truong Dinh Phong, Truong Van Truong, Phan Van Binh, and Ha Dac Binh. This study proposed solutions to optimize energy performance and reduce latency in modern communication systems.
? Mechanical & Civil Engineering: “Smart solutions for organic waste treatment” by Dang Ngoc Sy, Vu Duong, Ho Ngoc Huy, Dinh Huu Quang, Vo Minh Long, Nguyen Huu Chien, and Nguyen Duy Linh. Their solutions have significant potential for applying smart technologies to mitigate pollution and effectively utilize organic waste.
? Environmental & Natural Sciences, Architecture, and Arts: “Assessing pollution levels and the origins of metals in road dust at the largest industrial zones in Danang and surrounding areas: Proposal of management solutions for environmental and human health impacts” by Nguyen Thi Hong Tinh and Tran Ba Quoc. This important study aims to protect the environment and public health in industrial areas.
The fourth Science Conference of the School of Engineering & Technology concluded with success, showcasing DTU’s continuous efforts in promoting scientific research and innovation. The conference also provided a chance to connect scientists with businesses and the community, contributing to improving education and applying science to everyday life.
