We’re happy to inform you of additional SCE winners recently awarded research grants:

The first two grants about which we’ll tell you were given by the Ministry of Science and Technology to Dr. Aviad Elyashar from the Department of Computer Sciences on the Be’er-Sheva campus, who received 300,000 NIS for a two-year period, equally divided between him and his two researcher partners from the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev—Prof. Rami Puzis, from the Faculty of Computer and Information Sciences, and Dr. Odeya Cohen, Head of the Nursing Department. This trio’s research topic: “A system based on a model language developed for the automatic production of state-of-affairs reports in response to earthquakes striking control and monitoring centers of health organizations.”

Dr. Tal Yadlin, from the Department of Civil Engineering, also on the Be’er-Sheva campus, was awarded a research grant totaling 500,000 NIS for a three-year period for the call for proposals on the topic of “smart transportation and transportation infrastructures.” Her research will deal with: “The development of smart and innovative tools for the monitoring and evaluation of the status of concrete transportation bridges and infrastructures.”

Three more research grants were awarded to SCE researchers by the Office for Regional Cooperation: a) to the Dean of the Engineering Faculty in Be’er-Sheva; b) to Prof. Victor Kagalovsky in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics; and c) to the head of that department, Prof. Dmitry Baimel—totaling 162,000 NIS—for “The development of an AI-based control method for electronic fault current limiters.”

Prof. Shlomo Greenberg, Head of the Department of Computer Sciences, received a grant totaling 165,000 NIS for: “The identification and tracking of hovercraft and unmanned drones by means of event cameras and ‘spiking neural networks’ (SNN).”
Dr. Elroi Hadad, from the Department of Industrial Engineering and Management on the Be’er-Sheva campus, was granted 148,300 NIS for his research on: “The impact of economic uncertainty, geopolitical risks, and investors’ sentiments on the real estate market in the Middle East.”

We’re proud of the research successes of SCE’s faculty members, and we’re certain that they’ll continue to lead the scientific forefront.

On the last Thursday of the month, the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics on the Be’er-Sheva campus held an academic workshop run by the NVIDIA company for the fourth-year students in the course: “Deep Learning.” This workshop was dedicated to the memory of a deceased department graduate, Itay Berdichevsky, who had also participated in the same workshop when he’d been an SCE student.

Participating in this workshop were: Itay’s mother, Ravit Berdichevsky; Head of the Academic Administration, Dr. Avshalom Danoch; Dean of the Engineering Faculty on the Be’er-Sheva campus, Prof. Victor Kagalovsky; Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics, Prof. Dmitry Baimel; the course lecturer, Dr. Dima Bykhovsky, students, department graduates who had been Itay’s friends; and his relatives, Dor Krief and Uriel Mizrahi.

We wish to thank Ravit for joining us and for the conversations she had with the students regarding her son, Itay, and his commemoration.

We’re pleased to update our SCE researchers regarding two research grants recently awarded on the Be’er-Sheva Campus.

Dr. Ziv Brand, from the Department of Mechanical Engineering, was awarded a research grant in the amount of 950,000 NIS, for his work on a smart, active adaptor for reducing erosion processes, sponsored by the Israel Innovation Authority. In the words of Dr. Brand: “This system is based on a unique, active actuator and includes real-time sensing and control of the suppression of vibrations by means of robust, adaptive and intelligent algorithms. The solution is expected to enhance processing stability, increase output, and improve quality of the surface—thus reducing wear, especially under conditions of a high length/diameter ratio—while diminishing dependence on the operator’s skill.”

Prof. Oshrat Levy-Ontman, from the Department of Chemical Engineering, in conjunction with Prof. Nina Kamennaya, from the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, were awarded a research grant of 150,000 NIS, funded by the Jewish National Fund, for their research on the use of commercial alginate and a novel biomass, rich in polysaccharides, for the preservation of minerals in soil and the reduction of soil erosion in forests after forest fires.

We are very proud of these academic achievements by SCE researchers, and we are certain they will continue to lead on the frontline of scientific research.
