10 KIMM (Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials) Forum As a leading national research group in the area of mechanical engineering in Korea, the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials (KIMM) would like to host a KIMM-Forum session subtitled as Challenges of Mechanical Engineering with a Shift in Global Energy Paradigm, during UKC 2015 in Atlanta, GA, USA. Global energy paradigm is rapidly changing with the recent shale gas boom triggered in the USA. This impacts not only on the global energy market such as the fall of oil/gas prices, but also on the trends in the climate change initiatives. Thanks to the abundant supply of shale gas, USA is experiencing a significant decrease of the amount of annual CO2 emission by the switch to natural gas from coal of electric power plants. Trends in the low energy prices as a consequence of the US shale gas boom dramatically impact on the global business environment. It has caused the recent fall of global oil prices, which helps business environments of many countries such as Korea which heavily depends on imported energy. In this forum, challenges of mechanical engineering caused by a shift in global energy paradigm due to the US shale gas boom and their impacts on Korean business environment will be discussed. This forum is composed of (1) presentations by speakers from Korea and USA and (2) a panel session for open discussions between speakers and audience.
