About

Dr. Ji Hee Lee is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of disaster safety engineering and advanced materials processing. Her work primarily focuses on two transformative areas: intelligent infrastructure safety systems and scalable polymer fabrication technologies. In her landmark 2018 study on smart disaster response in vehicular tunnels, Dr. Lee addressed the critical challenge of urban tunnel fire emergencies, developing technologies to precisely track fire locations, accident vehicles, and first responders in environments exceeding one kilometer in length. This work, with 23 citations, has laid crucial groundwork for next-generation tunnel safety protocols and has been instrumental in shaping modern search-and-rescue strategies for confined transportation infrastructure. More recently, Dr. Lee has broken new ground in materials science with her 2023 investigation into scalable silicone elastomer microparticle fabrication. By ingeniously employing a blade-free planetary mixer with a thixotropic medium, she overcame the longstanding hurdle of processing highly viscous silicone resins—a breakthrough with profound implications for biomedical devices and soft robotics. Her ability to bridge life-saving infrastructure solutions with cutting-edge materials engineering demonstrates a rare versatility, positioning her as a vital contributor to both public safety and advanced manufacturing.
