SUMMARY:Automated Demand Response to Enable the Integration of Renewable Resources
UID:51437-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:310\, Banatao Auditorium Sutardja Dai Hall
DESCRIPTION:Dave Watson\, LBNL\n\nThe complete schedule for the semester is online at <a href="http://citris-uc.org/news/spring_2012_i4energy">http://citris-uc.org/news/spring_2012_i4energy</a>. All talks may be viewed on our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/citrisuc">YouTube channel</a> \n\nWebviewing at UC Davis: 1003 Kemper Hall\nWebviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100\nWebviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506\n\nAbstract:\nThis talk will discuss how fast automated demand response can help mitigate grid balancing challenges introduced by upcoming increases in intermittent renewable generation resources in an environmentally friendly and cost effective manner. There are many different types of ancillary services necessary to keep the electric grid in balance\; non-spinning reserves and regulation are among the most important. To date\, only pilot scale field tests using AutoDR for these types of ancillary services. Though AutoDR may not be suitable for all forms of ancillary services\, the lower installed cost of AutoDR indicates that it should be considered for use in the time domains and capacities for which it is applicable. By combining AutoDR with traditional gas fired thermal generation and battery storage technologies\, an optimal mix of generation\, AutoDR and storage should be considered.

ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:315A Wurster Hall
DESCRIPTION:Cleo Woelfle-Erskine: \n\nCleo Woelfle-Erskine\nMS/PhD\, Energy and Resource Group\, Berkeley\n\nGreywater Reuse\, Rainwater Harvesting\, and a New Culture of Water: Low-Tech Collaborations Among Common Waters\n\nThis talk charts two streams in urban water policy: a practical consideration of how to design\, disseminate\, and regulate decentralized greywater and rainwater harvesting systems\, and a social-political consideration of what kinds of water infrastructures and social relationships to water promote equitable and environmentally sustainable societies. Through an exploration of the Greywater Guerrillas / Greywater Action's 13 years of grassroots education and policy work\, Woelfle-Erskine will discuss current opportunities and constraints to create integrated urban waterscapes as an alternative ever-expanding water works.\n\nCleo Woelfle-Erskine\, co-founder of the Greywater Guerrillas\, aims to transform cultures of water use grounded in waste\, ignorance\, and apathy into resilient cultures of water rooted in renewed community connections to local water sources and cycles. Woelfle-Erskine's current work includes research into the water savings\, ecological implications\, and social impact of home greywater and rainwater systems\, theoretical writing on water commons\, and local collaborations developing mutual aid-based models to disseminate ecological sanitation technologies widely. His books include Dam Nation: Dispatches from the Water Underground and Creating Rain Gardens (out March 2012 from Timber Press).\n\nAbout the Colloquium:\n\nThe Landscape Architecture & Environmental Planning Colloquium (LD ARCH 253\, CCN: 48629) brings together distinguished speakers to present research\, theories\, and practices relevant to the landscape architecture and environmental planning. Speakers include academics\, professionals\, practitioners\, and graduate students in landscape architecture\, environmental planning\, urban planning and design\, environmental studies and other related fields.\n\nAll are welcome to attend.

SUMMARY:Sustainable Mobility and Cities: Marrying Technology and Policy
UID:50669-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:David Brower Center\, 2150 Allston Way\, Berkeley\, CA 94704
DESCRIPTION:The urban transport sector's environmental footprint is huge and growing – around a third of energy consumption and CO2 emissions in U.S. cities is in the transport sector. The debate on how to shrink the sector's footprint has splintered into two camps: those arguing for technological solutions (e.g.\, clean-fuel vehicles\; smart cars) and those contending that policies (e.g.\, congestion pricing) and land-use management (e.g.\, TOD) that reduce the demand for car travel offer considerable\, if not more\, promise. The debate and rhetoric has become fractious and at times divisive. In modeling how to comply with AB32\, for example\, CARB (California Air Resources Board) estimates that some 90% of the targeted CO2 emission reductions will come from technological advances and a much smaller share (5% or so) might come from land-use initiatives like TOD. Many smart-growth policy advocates dispute this.\n\nThe technology versus policy debate could very well be a false dichotomy. Is it possible that the two might effectively work together in tandem\, promoting cross-purposes? Need the two points-of-view always be at loggerheads? Might there be synergies/win-win outcomes associated with aggressively pursuing the two strategies in tandem.\n\nSponsored by the Ted and Doris Lee Fund at the College of Environmental Design and Berkeley Law\, managed by the Institute of Urban & Regional Development. Individual conferences organized by the Berkeley Program on Housing and Urban Policy\, the Institute of Urban & Regional Development\, and the University of California Transportation Center.

SUMMARY:Enabling Technologies For Residential Demand Response
UID:51438-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:310\, Banatao Auditorium Sutardja Dai Hall
DESCRIPTION:Yusuf Ozturk\, San Diego State University\n\nThe complete schedule for the semester is online at <a href="http://citris-uc.org/news/spring_2012_i4energy">http://citris-uc.org/news/spring_2012_i4energy</a>. All talks may be viewed on our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/citrisuc">YouTube channel</a> \n\nWebviewing at UC Davis: 1007 Kemper Hall\nWebviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100\nWebviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506\n\nAbstract:\nDemand Response (DR) and Time-of-Use (TOU) pricing refer to programs that offer incentives for consumers who curtail their energy use during times of peak demand. In this talk\, we will present an integrated solution to predict and re-engineer the aggregate energy demand (e.g.\, peak load reduction and shift) from a group of residential consumers in a locality at a given day/time. We will explore expanding demand response to all residential power loads by dynamically scheduling and controlling appliances in the dwelling unit in a closed loop time-of-use pricing program. A decision-support system will be presented to forecast power demand in the home and enable the user to save energy by recommending optimal run time schedules for appliances\, given user constraints and time-of-use pricing from the utility company. A Master Home Energy controller developed to execute the appliance run time schedules will be introduced. Smart appliance nodes developed to take advantage of time-of-use pricing will be discussed.

Tens of millions of willing workers can’t find jobs. Millions of homeowners have lost their homes to foreclosure and millions more are underwater. Instead of investing in our shared future\, politicians are giving tax breaks to the rich and then slashing vital services families depend on. Rather than expanding protections for the middle class during these difficult economic times\, they’re trying to gut workers’ rights. But a new movement is rising all across America to fight back. It was born among the teachers\, students\, firefighters and nurses of Wisconsin who took over their Capitol to stop Governor Walker’s power grab. Now it’s spreading as millions of other Americans–inspired by the events in Madison\, Wisconsin–stand up to say “No” to right-wing attacks on the middle class. Van Jones called this new wave of energy the “American Dream Movement.” It’s growing stronger by the day\, and it’s not going away until Americans can find jobs\, afford to go to college\, retire with dignity\, and secure a future for their children and their communities.\n\nVan Jones is a globally recognized\, award-winning pioneer in human rights and the clean energy economy. He is a co-founder of three successful nonprofit organizations: the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights\, Color of Change\, and Green For All. He is also the best-selling author of The Green Collar Economy\, the definitive book on green jobs. Jones served as the green jobs advisor in the Obama White House in 2009.\n

SUMMARY:BERCshop: Solar Cells and Other Fairy Tales: Symbols and Expectations for a Clean Energy Future
UID:53447-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:470 Stephens Hall
DESCRIPTION:The seductive tales of wind turbines\, solar cells\, and biofuels foster the impression that with a few technical upgrades\, we might just sustain our current energy trajectories without consequence. Media and political coverage lull us into dreams of a clean energy future juxtaposed against a tumultuous past characterized by evil oil companies and the associated energy woes they propagated. Like most fairy tales\, this productivist parable contains a tiny bit of truth. And a whole lot of fantasy.\n\nThis talk does not expose a scandal or cover-up in the traditional sense\, but rather explores a particular alignment of interests and priorities that presents equally provocative questions to the environmental community. Solar cells shine brightly within the idealism of textbooks and the glossy pages of environmental magazines\, but real-world experiences reveal a scattered collection of side effects and limitations that rarely mature into attractive realities.\n\nThis talk is based on Ozzie’s forthcoming book\, Green Illusions: The Dirty Secrets of Clean Energy and the Future of Environmentalism (University of Nebraska Press\, June 2012).\nhttp://www.greenillusions.org/\n\nThis event is sponsored by the Center for Science\, Technology\, Medicine\, and Society.

SUMMARY:Semiconductor Nanowires for Energy Applications: Nano Seminar Series
UID:52150-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:390 Hearst Memorial Mining Building
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Silvija Gradečak\, MIT\, Materials Science & Engineering\n\nSemiconductor nanowires are quasi-one-dimensional single-crystals that have emerged as promising materials for the development of photonic and electronic devices with enhanced performance. Nanowires offer solutions to some of the current challenges in science and engineering\, but realization of their full potential will be ultimately dictated by the ability to control their structure\, composition\, and size with high accuracy. \n\nFor example\, spatial variation of the composition forms the basis of many functional devices\, including light emitting devices\, high electron mobility transistors\, and multijunction solar cells. Furthermore\, diameter modulations along the nanowire axis could be used to enhance device performance\, including improved light trapping\, thermoelectric conversion\, and field emission. \n\nSimultaneous control over both composition and morphology (“nanowires on demand”) would further expand the realm of possible nanowire architectures\, but achieving this goal has so far been challenging or elusive. \n\nIn this talk\, I will discuss our recent results on the controlled growth\, doping\, and applications of III-V nanowires\, as well as advanced electron microscopy techniques for direct correlation of structural and physical properties with high spatial resolution. \n\nWe have developed a simple\, yet powerful\, approach to modulate both the diameter and composition of individual III-V nitride nanowires by adjusting in-situ the nanowire seed particle composition and volume. By elucidating the underlying mechanisms controlling structural evolution\, we demonstrated the synthesis of axial InN/InGaN nanowire heterojunctions\, compositionally tunable AlGaAs nanowires\, GaAs/AlGaAs core-shell nanowires\, and their controlled doping. \n\nWe have demonstrated that the cathodoluminescence (CL) technique\, coupled with scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM)\, effectively bypasses the resolution limit of conventional far-field photoluminescence spectroscopy and allows direct structure-property correlation on the nanoscale. The CL-STEM optical studies of single nanowire heterostructures with spatial resolution of

LOCATION:310\, Banatao Auditorium Sutardja Dai Hall
DESCRIPTION:Vivek Subramanian\, Professor\, UC Berkeley\n\nAll talks may be viewed on our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/citrisuc">YouTube channel</a> \n\nWebviewing at UC Davis: 1003 Kemper Hall\nWebviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100\nWebviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506\n\nAbstract:\nIn recent years\, there has been significant interest in the applications of printed electronics for the realization of flexible displays\, fully-printed RFID tags and embedded sensors. Printing of active circuitry is expected to enable a dramatic reduction in the overall cost of these systems\, allowing for integration of electronic barcodes and product quality detection systems into consumer goods\, as well as ushering in an era of low cost flexible displays and content delivery appliances. Printing techniques that have been considered range from high-speed commercial gravure printing through ultra-scaled inkjet printing. While many of the printing techniques under consideration have evolved from techniques already widely deployed in graphic arts applications\, the requirements for printed electronics are in many ways dramatically different from those that exist for conventional graphic arts.\n\nIn this talk\, I will review the tremendous progress that has occurred in printed electronics over the last decade\, and will discuss the challenges that remain. I will discuss the challenges associated with utilizing printing to realize printed semiconductor-based circuits. Additionally\, I will overview the state of the art in printed electronic materials. I will review our work on developing materials\, processes\, devices\, and circuit architectures for all-printed electronic systems including RFID tags\, displays\, and sensing systems.

SUMMARY:EECS Colloquium: Looking before you leap: The argument for data-driven security
UID:34049-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:306 Soda Hall
DESCRIPTION:Stefan Savage\, Professor\, Department of Computer Science and Engineering\, UC San Diego\n\nABSTRACT:\nComputer security is a field that is fundamentally co-dependent --driven to respond by the actions of adversaries. This dance fuels both the research community and a multi-billion-dollar computer security industry. However\, to date most efforts have focused on the technical components of this battle: identifying new vulnerabilities\, exploits\, and attacks\, building and deploying new defenses\, and so on. However\, this focus on the "medium" of the conflict has not been matched by a similar effort to understand the underlying drivers\, dependencies and motivations. In this talk\, I will argue for a complementary research agenda based on understanding the social and economic forces that drive today's Internet attacks\, deconstructing the underlying value chain for attackers and ultimately using this information to better focus on security interventions. I will provide a rough sketch of the modern cyber-criminal ecosystem\, describe its dependencies\, and highlight some of the key open questions that motivate our focus. Using the sale of counterfeit goods as a case study\, I'll show that the empirical analyses of these factors are both achievable and essential for security interventions to have meaningful impact. Finally\, I'll discuss the real and significant challenges in conducting this sort of research (which involves both network measurement and direct engagement with criminal enterprises) and in bringing it to appropriate stakeholders.\n\nBIOGRAPHY:\nStefan Savage joined the Jacobs School Computer Science and Engineering faculty in January 2001. He received his PhD from the University of Washington where he focused both on network protocol design and operating system structuring. He was a co-founder of Seattle-based startup Asta Networks\, which specialized in denial-of-service defense and he continues to provide guidance to the public and private sectors relating to Internet security. His current interests include automated network defenses\, adaptive Internet distributed storage systems and self-configuring 802.11-based wireless access networks.

All talks may be viewed on our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/citrisuc">YouTube channel</a> \n\nWebviewing at UC Davis: 1065 Kemper Hall\nWebviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100\nWebviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506\n\nBio:\nJohn Elliott is Director\, Energy and Sustainability in Facilities Management at UC Merced. As co-chair of the Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Sustainability\, he is also responsible for shaping and implementing the campus sustainability strategy\, which includes a "Triple-Zero" commitment to zero net energy\, zero landfill waste\, and climate neutrality by 2020. John is involved in new construction\, operations\, and planning\, as well as engaged in faculty teaching and research to create a sustainability "living laboratory." John has previous experience in energy efficiency and renewable energy consulting\, as well as energy software. John received a BS in civil and environmental engineering from Stanford University and a masters degree from the Energy and Resources Program at UC Berkeley.\n\nAbstract\nJohn will provide an introduction to the new University of California campus at Merced and its sustainability commitments. John will present several approaches that the campus is pursuing to achieve its Triple Zero Commitment to zero net energy\, zero landfill waste\, and climate neutrality by 2020. From a technical perspective\, the campus zero net energy strategy relies primarily on energy efficiency\, solar energy\, and plasma gasification\, along with various smart grid strategies. Zero waste efforts currently emphasize composting and control of purchasing to simplify recycling efforts. Campus efforts are only beginning to address climate neutrality beyond initial attainment of zero net energy. From a methodological point of view\, the campus approach generally involves increasing efforts to leverage sustainability goals in support the core research and teaching mission of the university.

SUMMARY:Carbon-based Nanocomposite Materials for High Energy Density Rechargeable Batteries
UID:53385-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:521 Cory (Hogan Room) Cory Hall
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Yuegang Zhang\, LBNL\, Material Sciences Division\n\nGraphite anode and oxide based cathodes in the current lithium ion batteries can only provide moderate energy-storage capability and therefore are difficult to meet the increasing demands for advanced energy storage systems. Silicon\, tin\, and some transition metal oxides are promising high-capacity anode materials for lithium ion batteries.\n\nHowever\, these materials suffer from huge volume change during charge and discharge\, which leads to poor cycling performance. Sulfur is one of the most promising cathode materials for rechargeable lithium batteries with a high theoretical capacity of about 1675 mAh g-1.\n\nHowever\, the current lithium-sulfur cells suffer from the low electronic conductivity of sulfur electrodes and the high solubility of long chain polysulfide ions in organic solvent-based electrolytes. To solve these problems\, we use novel carbon nanostructures\, such as graphene\, graphene oxides\, and porous carbon nanofibers as matrices to fabricate carbon-electrochemically active material nanocomposites as anodes (such as graphene/Si\, graphene/Sn\, graphene/Fe3O4\,\, etc) and cathodes (such as graphene oxide/sulfur\, porous carbon nanofiber/sulfur\, etc.) for rechargeable lithium batteries.

All talks may be viewed on our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/citrisuc">YouTube channel</a> \n\nWebviewing at UC Davis: 1065 Kemper Hall\nWebviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100\nWebviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506\n\nBiography:\nDr. Elizabeth Burton is the Technical Director of the DOE West Coast Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (WESTCARB) and a project manager in Carbon Management at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. She has worked in the field of carbon capture and storage for over 10 years\, both as a researcher and as a technical consultant\, in industry as well as in government. She has extensive experience at the federal and state level in providing technical consultation for energy policymakers\, including as a team member in developing the Energy-Water Report to Congress and Energy-Water Roadmap\, in leading the Assembly Bill 1925 effort at the Energy Commission to report to the California Legislature on recommendations as to how to facilitate commercial-scale CCS adoption in the state\, and as a member of the Technical Advisory Committee to the California CCS Review Panel. She is the author or coauthor of over 100 published technical papers and a college textbook on oceanography. She received a PhD from Washington University in St. Louis\, a MS from the Rosensteil School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences in Miami\, and a B.S. from Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania.\n\nOverview:\nCarbon Capture\, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) is a mechanism that captures CO2 from stationary sources\, such as power plants and refineries\, which account for about half of California's CO2 emissions. The captured CO2 is then stored underground where it will not become a greenhouse gas contributor. Other uses for CO2 are being researched\, but only enhanced oil recovery has been demonstrated at commercial scales. CCUS is being actively pursued in Europe\, Asia\, the Middle East and Australasia. The USA began CCUS activities in 2003 through the Department of Energy's Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership program: these seven partnerships cover different areas of the country reflecting the geologic\, geographic and economic variations. The West Coast partnership\, WESTCARB\, stretches from Alaska to Arizona\, including Hawaii and California. California has stringent emission standards to limit its greenhouse gas contribution\, which by 2050 should be a fraction of 1990 levels\, which gives a strong incentive to encourage industrial emitters to sequester their CO2 emissions.\n\nWESTCARB\, like other partnerships\, was directed to provide an analysis of\nCO2 point sources and their position relative to potential 'sinks'\, or geological basins that would have the capacity to store this gas indefinitely. WESTCARB was to undertake small scale pilot injection tests to validate the technology\, then large volume injection tests to monitor the behaviour of CO2 underground. The western region has unique attributes not found in other partnership regions that has enriched our understanding of CCUS.\n\nCCUS is a new endeavour in California in which the current regulatory\, permitting and legal frameworks may require reassessment\, for which WESTCARB is informing policy and regulatory deliberations. WESTCARB is keenly aware of the need to reach out and demonstrate technically the safe operation and stewardship of sequestration projects across the region.\n\nIn order for California to meet its electricity generation needs that do not compromise its greenhouse gas emission goals\, CCUS will be a vital tool.\n\nCommercially viable demonstration projects are needed for California energy future. Renewable power generation will be insufficient in the short to medium term.

SUMMARY:Canada’s Role in California’s Energy Supply
UID:52802-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:223\, conference room Moses Hall
DESCRIPTION:Gregory CROFT\, St. Mary's College of California\n\nCanada is now a major supplier of natural gas to California\, providing about 24% of California’s natural gas consumption. A small but growing portion (6.7% in 2010) of California’s imported oil also comes from Canada\, and oil offers the greatest potential for increased energy cooperation. Now that Alaskan and Californian oil production is declining\, California imports increasing volumes from Saudi Arabia\, Ecuador and Iraq. \n\nCould Canada become a reliable\, large-scale supplier of oil to California? Canada’s large resources and California’s large demand make a natural pairing. A combination of environmental concerns and simple misunderstandings is delaying this vision. This talk will address those concerns and misunderstandings.

LOCATION:315A Wurster Hall
DESCRIPTION:Matt Heberger: \n\nMatt Heberger\nResearcher\, Pacific Institute\n\nManaging Groundwater as if the Environment Mattered: Policy and Management Reforms in the Western United States\n\nIn many areas of the United States\, excessive pumping and groundwater overdraft are causing rivers and wetlands to go dry. In western states\, where most surface water has long been fully appropriated\, growing populations have turned increasingly to groundwater\, leading to decreases in streamflows\, conflicts with surface water rights\, and harm to fish and wildlife. States have begun the process of reforming outdated laws and policies\, some more ambitiously than others\, and with mixed results. In this talk\, we will look at the experience of Oregon\, New Mexico\, and Texas\, and explore steps that states have taken to limit groundwater pumping while avoiding undue harm to regional economies. We will also examine the role of discuss the role of the endangered species protections\, environmental organizations and water trusts in precipitating these changes. Further\, we will explore how states used tools such as &quot\;basin closures\,&quot\; groundwater rights\, &quot\;mitigation credits&quot\;\, and water markets to promote sustainable water use. We will conclude by looking at what else states should be doing to manage groundwater and surface water conjunctively\, as a single resource\, to promote a healthy environment and healthy economies.\n\nMatthew Heberger is a researcher at the non-profit Pacific Institute in Oakland\, California.

SUMMARY:Optimal Demand Response and Power Flow
UID:50309-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:310\, Banatao Auditorium Sutardja Dai Hall
DESCRIPTION:Steven Low\, Caltech\n\nFree and open to the public\, the i4Energy Speaker Series is a weekly roundtable of lectures and discussions that highlight these research issues. All talks take place at noon on Fridays in 310 Sutardja Dai Hall\, Banatao Auditorium on the UC Berkeley campus\, unless otherwise indicated. All talks may be viewed on our YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/citrisuc.\n\nWebviewing at UC Davis: 1065 Kemper Hall\nWebviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100\nWebviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506\n\nAbstract:\nWe first propose a simple model that integrates two-period electricity markets\, uncertainty in renewable generation\, and real-time dynamic demand response. A load serving entity decides its day-ahead procurement to optimize expected social welfare a day before energy delivery. At delivery time when renewable generation is realized\, it coordinates with users\, in a decentralized manner\, to manage load \nand purchase real-time balancing power in the real-time market\, if necessary. We derive the optimal day-ahead decision\, propose real-time demand response algorithm\, and study the effect of volume and variability of renewable generation on the optimal social welfare. \n\nThis simple model ignores constraints from the underlying power network. We then formulate the problem with these network constraints and consider optimal power flow (OPF) and VAR control. \n\nThese problems are well-known nonconvex optimization problems and we propose relaxations that can be solved efficiently. We prove conditions under which the relaxations are exact. In particular\, we show that a tree network always has zero duality gap. We apply this result to control voltage and reactive power in distribution networks\, and present results from realistic simulation of a Southern California distribution circuit. \n\n(Joint work with Subhomesh Bose\, Mani Chandy\, Masoud Farivar\, Dennice Gayme\, and Libin Jiang\, Javad Lavaei\, Caltech\, and Chris Clarke\, SCE)

SUMMARY:Sustainable Low-Carbon City Development in China
UID:54356-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:534 Davis Hall
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Shomik Mehndiratta\, Ph.D.\, Lead Transportation Specialist\, World Bank\, Latin America and Caribbean Region\, Washington D.C.\n\nThis talk summarizes the key messages of a recently released book that examines\, through the specific lens of low-carbon development\, the lessons of the World Bank’s activities related to urban development in China. Amid unprecedented levels of urban migration\, rapidly increasing incomes\, double digit annual growth in motorization and expanding city forms\, many Chinese cities are already on a high carbon-emission growth path. With China set to add an estimated 350 million residents to its cities over the next 20 years\, the case for urgent action is strong. \n\nOn one hand\, China's cities are already reacting to ambitious commitments their leaders have made to reduce the carbon and energy intensity of the economy and transition to a low-carbon growth path. The country's current (12th) Five-Year Plan includes\, for the first time ever\, an explicit target to reduce carbon intensity by 17 percent by the end of 2015. However\, the imperative to reduce carbon intensity is only one of many competing priorities for government officials in the midst of unprecedented urbanization\, modernization\, and economic development. \n\nWhat are the choices Chinese cities are making? And what are the implications? Achievements and challenges to low-carbon city development in China will be discussed with a particular focus on transport\, land-use and urban spatial development.

DESCRIPTION:Joan Walker\, Asst. Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering\, UC Berkeley\n\nAll talks may be viewed on our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/citrisuc">YouTube channel</a> \n\nWebviewing at UC Davis: 1003 Kemper Hall\nWebviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100\nWebviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506\n\nAbstract:\nThere are a growing number of persuasive technology apps and systems that aim to make individuals (and therefore society) healthier\, greener\, more financially sound\, smarter\, happier\, and so on. Analysis of such technologies often focuses on the aggregate results\, for example the total percentage of residential electricity saved across households. However\, an aggregate focus misses important aspects of the behavioral responses at an individual level. This talk focuses on experiments and models that examine behavior at the level of the individual\, and demonstrates how such analyses could guide the effective design of behavior change technologies and better predict their impacts on different users' segments.

SUMMARY:After Three Gorges Dam: What Have We Learned? A Post-Project Assessment of the World's Largest Hydro Dam
RRULE:FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1;UNTIL=20120414T190000
UID:54394-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:Room 112 Wurster Hall
DESCRIPTION:Three years ago the world’s largest hydroelectric dam was completed at Three Gorges on the Yangtze\, inundating a 700 km reservoir\, and displacing at least 1.4 million people and potentially affecting the lives of 400 million people living downstream. Because of its social and environmental impacts the decision to build this project was bitterly contested within China.\n\nChina is now at a critical point in its development path. Over the last three decades it has invested heavily in large-scale infrastructure projects like the Three Gorges Dam\, choosing rapid development as its priority. Now\, as the long term environmental and social impacts and economic costs of this policy escalate\, the Chinese government has started to acknowledge the need to address them. \n\nOn May 18\, 2011\, the State Council of the Chinese Government\, chaired by Premier Wen Jiabao\, issued a statement expressing the urgent need to solve problems caused by Three Gorges Dam’s massive social\, environmental\, and public safety impacts. The Three Gorges Dam has become a test case of how\, or whether\, China can develop the appropriate planning\, legal and economically accountable institutions to ensure future infrastructure projects promote environmentally sustainable growth. \n\nThis official statement has given credibility to the long-standing concerns of experts both within China and in other countries about the potential consequences of the world’s largest megaproject. These scientists\, engineers and economists have not previously had the opportunity to present their evaluations together in an open forum.\n\nThe intent of this symposium is to convene invited experts both from within China\, and outside\, who are knowledgeable on the planning and environmental assessments of large dams – particularly the Three Gorges Project\; to share their evaluations of what anticipated and unanticipated project impacts have occurred\, what future long-term impacts are likely to occur\, and what actions can be undertaken to minimize adverse impacts. These ideas and analyses could help shape the debate both within China concerning its current massive investment in new hydro dams\, as well as influence decisions on dams that China is involved with in other countries.\n\nWith its up-to-date information on new developments related to the Three Gorges\, we anticipate this symposium will attract the interest of a range of participants\, including professionals interested in water resources planning\, scholars interested in China\, media interested in science and development\, and NGOs interested in the future of China’s environmental policies.

SUMMARY:Nanobatteries And What We Learn From Them: Nano Seminar Series
UID:50818-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:390 Hearst Memorial Mining Building
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Ju Li\, MIT\, Materials Science & Engineering\n\nElectrochemistry coupled with mechanics dictates the microstructural evolution and service life of many materials in the energy industry\, and underlies problems such as stress-corrosion cracking and battery cyclability. \n\nWhile atomistic and first-principles modeling is adept at looking at the finer details of energetics and microstructural evolution\, it often needs help from experiments to identity the key performance-limiting processes. Here we report the creation of a nanoscale electrochemical testing platform inside a transmission electron microscope (TEM)\, consisting of electron-transparent single nanowire electrodes and an ionic liquid electrolyte\, and direct observations of the electrochemical lithiation and delithiation of the nanowires. \n\nSnO2\, ZnO\, Si\, Ge\, graphene and carbon nanotube anodes and LiFePO4 nanowire cathode have been tested so far. Lithium embrittlement is found to be a persistent phenomenon in these materials. These in situ experiments greatly complement our modeling efforts\, and together they provide unprecedented details and deep insight into how materials degrade in service due to combined electrochemical-mechanical actions.

SUMMARY:Large-scale Renewable Energy Infrastructure Modeling: Application in Sustainable Bioenergy Systems Development
UID:51447-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:310\, Banatao Auditorium Sutardja Dai Hall
DESCRIPTION:Bryan Jenkins\, UC Davis\n\nThe complete schedule for the semester is online at <a href="http://citris-uc.org/news/spring_2012_i4energy">http://citris-uc.org/news/spring_2012_i4energy</a>. All talks may be viewed on our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/citrisuc">YouTube channel</a> \n\nWebviewing at UC Davis: Academic Surge 2050\nWebviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100\nWebviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506\n\nAbstract:\nThe transition to a more robust and sustainable energy system faces enormous challenges and requires effective strategies\, policies\, and planning for future expansion of renewable technologies and resources. Opportunities exist to improve overall sustainability and optimize system performance in redesigning energy infrastructure to accommodate greater use of renewables. \n\nFor example\, in attempting to meet the federal renewable fuel standard (RFS)\, an essentially new sustainable biorefining industry must be created to supply the required amounts of biofuels. To better understand how such an industry might be designed\, a geospatial bioenergy systems model (GBSM) has been developed to investigate the full fuel supply chain optimization. The GBSM combines geographic information system (GIS) models with optimization algorithms to identify potential preferred sites\, resource demand\, technology types\, and facility capacities. \n\nThe GBSM has been applied to a variety of system analyses at the state\, regional\, and national levels including scenario analysis using the federal Billion Ton study results as well as independent assessments of feedstock supplies. The model optimizes across the entire supply chain from biomass production to delivery of finished product into final demand. The model is also capable of estimating greenhouse gas and other sustainability effects to evaluate potential system level carbon and other environmental impacts. \n\nThe GBSM is also being integrated with other models such as the bioenergy crop adoption model (BCAM) being developed at UC Davis to better address higher resolution effects at the farm level. Models of this type address a continuing need for spatially explicit assessments of likely impacts from plans and policies relating to sustainable energy development.

LOCATION:315A Wurster Hall
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Dougherty: \n\nElizabeth Dougherty\nPrincipal\, Wholly H2O\n\nWater Conservation and Reuse Strategies for Sustainable Water Management\n\nWhere does our water come from? How much water do you use daily and how? Where does your water go after use? How do we match end use with the most appropriate water source?&quot\;\n\nAs California water supplies are threatened by population rise\, climate change\, riparian ecological collapse\, and inappropriate use of water\, the answers to these questions creates a kind of road map for sustainable water management. Dr. Dougherty will focus on how and why rainwater\, graywater\, stormwater infiltration and blackwater are vital strategies for sustainable water management in California.\n\nElizabeth Dougherty is determined to make innovative approaches to water sustainability all the rage in California. Early in 2009 Elizabeth founded Wholly H2o\, a CA state-wide nonprofit that provides education and research on conservation\, rainwater\, graywater\, stormwater and blackwater as primary water sources.  Wholly H2O is located in San Francisco\, CA.\n\nElizabeth serves on the CUWCC's Education Committee and the Research & Evaluation Committee\; Green CA\; the Education and Outreach Committee for the CA State Water Plan 2013\; the CII High-tech Water Conservation Working Group\; Green CA\; and the Silicon Valley Water Conservation Award Committee. In 2008\, Elizabeth established a very active permaculture association in Peru.\n\nElizabeth received her PhD in Ethnography from University of Pennsylvania in 2003 and has developed expertise in Fair Trade\, Sustainable Agriculture and Energy Efficiency\, working in a wide variety of countries in Africa and Latin America. She is also an artist with a studio at American Steel Studios in West Oakland and is currently building LED-lit water fountains from recycled materials.\n\nAbout the Colloquium:\n\nThe Landscape Architecture & Environmental Planning Colloquium (LD ARCH 253\, CCN: 48629) brings together distinguished speakers to present research\, theories\, and practices relevant to the landscape architecture and environmental planning.

LOCATION:390 Hearst Memorial Mining Building
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Karl Böhringer\, Univ. of Washington\, Electrical Engineering\n\nThe lab-on-chip concept has created miniature devices for the study of phenomena and the performance of tasks in physics\, chemistry\, biology\, and medicine. But lab-on-chip devices can deliver more than just a miniaturization of conventional laboratory methods\; rather\, effects that scale favorably at micrometer dimensions can be exploited for simplified operation and reduced cost. \n\nWe present several examples\, including the manipulation of multiple droplets in parallel on “texture gradients” and “texture ratchets”\, which use vibration as driving force\; and the extraction of DNA from raw samples in “microfluidic origami”\, which rely on capillarity and folding instead of pumps and valves. \n\n**********\nKarl F. Böhringer is Professor of EE and BioE\, and the director of the Microfabrication Facility at the University of Washington\, Seattle. He received M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science from Cornell University. He was a visiting scholar at the Stanford Robotics Lab and Transducer Lab and a postdoctoral researcher at UC Berkeley\, before joining the faculty at the University of Washington. He received an NSF postdoctoral associateship in 1997\, an NSF CAREER award in 1999\, and was an NSF New Century Scholar in 2000. His work was featured among the Top 100 Science Stories in Discover Magazine's 2002 "Year in Science". In 2004\, he received the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society Academic Early Career Award and a sabbatical fellowship from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS). Since 2010\, he holds the John M. Fluke Distinguished Chair in Engineering at the Univ of Washington. He is a member of the editorial board of the ASME/IEEE Journal of Microelectromechanical Systems and the IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering.

SUMMARY:EECS Colloquium: Opportunities in Cancer Therapy: An Overview of Cancer Diagnosis\, Treatment and Surveillance and Directions for the Future
UID:18059-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:HP Auditorium (306) Soda Hall
DESCRIPTION:Mekhail Anwar\, M.D.\, Ph.D. Department of Radiation Oncology University of California San Francisco\, Helen Diller Comprehensive Cancer Center\n\nABSTRACT:\nCancer is a name that often evokes a homogeneous entity that is the second leading cause of death in the US and responsible for over 7 million deaths annually worldwide. But these numbers often belie where the greatest near term solutions in fighting an extremely heterogeneous disease (with an equally diverse array of treatments) can be found. We have the tools to cure cancer\, but unfortunately lack the ability to precisely target between normal and malignant tissue\, notably in the area of microscopic disease. This talk will be an overview of the current treatment strategies for treating cancer from an engineering perspective: where many of the shortcomings are\, and potentially\, where engineering solutions can play a role in improving cancer care. We will discuss the three main areas in the life cycle of cancer therapy: Diagnosis and Staging\, Treatment (surgery\, chemotherapy\, and radiation)\, and Surveillance\, and a roadmap for where the field is heading\, and ideally spawn new ideas for treatment. Using case examples\, we will illustrate the limitations of current technology\, its effect on patients\, and specifically focusing on breast cancer\, discuss a collaborative project between UCSF and UCB EECS for developing tools to look at microscopic residual disease in the tumor bed\, a major source of cancer recurrence.

UID:54746-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:106 Stanley Hall
DESCRIPTION:Maggie Koerth-Baker\, Science Editor\, boingboing.net\n\nPlease join us on Wednesday\, May 2 for our Spring 2012 Seminar! The speaker will be Maggie Koerth-Baker\, science editor for BoingBoing.net and author of Before the Lights Go Out. Her talk is titled "Putting the Fun Back in Infrastructure: The Electric System and the Future of Energy."\n\nAbstract:\n\nElectricity just happens. Flip a switch\, and the lights turn on. The system is reliable enough and invisible enough that it's easy to spend your entire life not knowing how it works\, even though you use it every day. But in an age of limited resources and climate change\, ignoring our electric infrastructure is a luxury we can no longer afford. The good news: Infrastructure is fascinating. Maggie Koerth-Baker explains how our flawed and surprisingly precarious electric system evolved\, how it controls what we can and can't do to solve our energy crisis today\, and what we can learn about the future.
