Professor Emeritus Marty Wachs Passes Away
The transportation community deeply mourns the loss of Emeritus Professor Marty Wachs of the Departments of Civil & Environmental Engineering and City & Regional Planning at the University of California, Berkeley (and UCLA where he was a Distinguished Professor Emeritus in Urban Planning). His dedication to students, teaching, and research are truly inspiring. He has left a legacy in many areas of transportation research, including his pioneering work on social equity, environmental quality, and community values.
Infant Warmer Reduces Infant Mortality in Rwanda Hospitals
A study by Professor Ashok Gadgil and LBNL Research Scientist Vi Rapp has been accepted in The Lancet - eClinicalMedicine. The study examines the use of the non-electric Infant Warmer (IW), a low-cost and reusable wraparound pad that helps prevent infant hypothermia in areas where skin-to-skin contact between a mother and newborn is inadequate or unfeasible. Both Gadgil and Rapp led the engineering side of the IW design, implementation, and testing.

ABSTRACT
External Job - Sun, 04/11/2021 - 12:00
The Historical and Masonry Structures (HMS) group of the Institute for Sustainability and Innovation in Structural Engineering (ISISE), University of Minho, Portugal, seeks a PhD student (duration of the contract planned for 3 years) to join the STAND4HERITAGE project, which is funded by a European Research Council Advanced Grant.
The position will focus on the stochastic analysis of the seismic signal with the aim to generate a representative variation of ground motion records (both source and structure-sensitive), and to examine the influence of the signal on the dynamic (seismic) behavior of masonry structures.
Necessary qualifications: MSc degree in Civil Engineering or Earthquake Engineering with some background in seismic engineering, stochastic analysis or geophysics. Additional experience in regional ground motion simulation (e.g. physic-based including deterministic, stochastic, hybrid or site-based approaches) or similar qualifications would be considered an asset. Students completing their MSc degree this summer are invited to demonstrate their interest in the position.
If interested, please send your résumé with a copy of the BSc and MSc certificate to Dr Shaghayegh Karimzadeh Naghshineh (shaghkn@gmail.com) until Sunday, April 11th (23:59 GMT). If your MSc certificate is not yet issued, please provide your current courses certificate and GPA.
