🎉 Celebrating Undergraduate Research at I²CS Research Lab! We are delighted to congratulate Abel Abraham (BTech 2024-2028), Meagan Mathew (PhD Scholar), and Dr. Minu A Pillai on the presentation of their research paper: “Reinforcement Learning Based Design Optimization of a Piezoelectric Cantilever Beam Vibration Energy Harvester”, at the ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition (IMECE 2026), held in Chennai from September 3–5, 2026. A special congratulations to Meagan Mathew, who presented the paper at the conference. 👏 Beyond the publication and conference presentation, this achievement reflects something we deeply value at the I²CS Research Lab; cultivating a strong undergraduate research culture where students get the opportunity to engage with challenging research problems, work alongside mentors, contribute to scholarly work, and present their findings on an international platform. Congratulations once again !
