We are delighted to announce that Dr. Ziqi Wang joined our faculty as an Assistant Professor on July 1, 2021. Dr. Wang's research focuses on structural reliability, random vibration and uncertainty quantification for civil and earthquake engineering. It is aimed at quantifying and understanding the influence of ubiquitous uncertainties present within civil and earthquake engineering practice. 

The North American Bikeshare & Scootershare Association (NABSA) just released the 2020 Shared Micromobility State of the Industry Report for North America. This second annual report shows the industry's resilience and response during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Professor Susan Shaheen helped develop NABSA’s report, which shows the industry's resilience in the face of a global pandemic, and features numerous new data points and metrics.

The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) just published a reconnaissance report on the failures of the Edenville and Sanford Dams that occurred on May 19, 2020, in Michigan. The report presents the results of an investigation immediately after the failure using a range of techniques, includes geophysics, and optical and infrared UAV-based surveys.

UC Berkeley's Transportation Sustainability Research Center (TSRC), Optimus Ride, Clemson University, and Argonne National Labs were selected for a Department of Energy (DOE) grant of up to $4.3 million to deploy one of the largest autonomous fleets in the US and conduct critical autonomous vehicle (AV) research.
