Professor Park Juhyun (50, Right) in the department of electric engineering, YU, was selected as top 1% of researchers worldwide. He has been consecutively selected for 3 years since 2015, which signifies he is one of most impactful researchers in the world.
Recently, Clarivate Analytics, a worldwide company of information analytics service, has announced the 2017 Highly Cited Researchers (‘HCR’) around the world. About 3,300 researchers were listed as the HCR for 2017, and 28 Korean researchers were included in the list. In the mathematics field, Professor Park was listed again for 3 consecutive years. Totally 96 researchers were selected in that field around the world.
The HCR can be defined as those rank in top 1% most impactful researchers in sciences and social sciences around the world. The Web of Science, known as the world’s hugest database of scientific information, has served as the basis for regular counting of citation from scientific papers and for selection of the HCR. The citation counts is the mostly accepted criterion that evaluates the quality of research paper. A paper with high citation counts proves an excellence in research quality.
Professor Park has published about 120 research papers on diverse subjects of non-linear dynamic system and network stabilization as the first author for the last 5 years. His papers have been cited about 10,500 times by other papers. His markedly higher research capability attracts many international students from foreign countries. It was a recent big news that three of his graduate students have been simultaneously employed as professors by famous domestic and foreign universities. Two Chinese graduates who have studied in the same laboratory together with the professor Lee Tae-hee were recently appointed as faculties by universities in China. Professor Park’s research capability proves he has a great impact on national and foreign universities as well.
Professor Park acquired his doctoral degree in the major of electronic and electric engineering at POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) and appointed as a faculty in YU at March, 2000. He is active as an editorial committee member in many international journals such as ‘IET Control Theory and Applications’ published by the IET (the Institute of Engineering and Technology) and ‘Nonlinear Dynamics’ published by Springer, a global company publishes science, technical and medical journals. He was appointed as a regular member of the Korean Academy of Science and Technology this year, and awarded in 2013 the ‘Grand Prize of Knowledge Creation’ offered by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning.
The 2017 HCR list focuses on contemporary research achievement based on citation counts in science and social sciences journals during the 11-year period from January of 2005 to December of 2015. A total number of about 130,000 papers published by about 900 publishers and institutes around the world were surveyed and reviewed for evaluation. Finally, about 3,300 highly cited researchers were selected in 21 fields of science and social sciences.
