Since 1874, the American Association for the Advancement of Science honors researchers who have made significant contributions to science by electing them as fellows each year.
Floats, such as for ferry terminals, ferry maintenance facilities, and other floating waterfront structures, often rely on long vertical piling to provide lateral support while allowing the floating structures to move up and down with changing water levels.
Assistant Professor of Materials Science and Engineering Scott McCormack is part of a multi-university team awarded $7.5 million over five years from the Department of Defense Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative, or MURI, program.
The purpose of this presentation is to open the door for geotechnical and civil engineers to realize that they can apply their knowledge and skill set to underground construction and tunnel design.
In this talk I will try to survey developments in automotive computer control systems during the past four decades, which incidentally and fortuitously coincided with my career in this exciting and challenging field.

The NSF has recognized Mitrović with the prestigious early faculty award. The assistant professor of computer science designs algorithms to efficiently solve tasks on large networks with data distributed across multiple machines and data centers.
The Millennium Tower in San Francisco, California, was developed between 2005-2009 with the original geotechnical report predicting 4 to 6 inches of settlement, and by 2014 had settled more than 14 inches.
As artificial intelligence gains momentum, University of California researchers are identifying discrimination in the algorithms that are shaping our society, devising solutions, and helping build a future where computers do us less harm and more good.
