In honor of Earth Day, students from Professor Tina Chow's CE105 class and MS/PhD students in Environmental Engineering teamed up with Edison High School in Southwest Stockton to build and distribute air purifiers in their community. On April 13, students from the two campuses teamed up to construct 120 box fan air purifiers from essential household items, serving to protect vulnerable community members from the effects of harmful air pollutants.

CEE Professor Shaofan Li recently published his new book, "Introduction to Computational Nanomechanics," from Cambridge University Press. The book provides a comprehensive guide to computational nanomechanics, discussing basic concepts and implications in computational physics, materials, mechanics, and engineering, among many other disciplines.

A UC Berkeley engineering research team led by Professor Kenichi Soga was recently granted $3 million by the California Energy Commission to enhance the seismic risk assessment of natural gas storage and pipeline infrastructure. Over three years, the team will use remote and embedded sensing technology and advanced data management and analysis techniques to monitor gas infrastructure continuously.
