Case Western Reserve University, leads the Computation Fire Dynamics Laboratory in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering since 2015. Dr. Liao’s research projects range from basic fire science (material flammability, solid pyrolysis, ignition, microgravity combustion, flame spread, etc.) to understanding fire behavior in specific situations (such as structures, spacecraft, or wildland fires). Her work has been supported by NSF, NASA, CASIS, and UL. She currently serves on the Board of Advisors in the Central State Section of the Combustion Institute. From 2013-2014, Dr. Liao worked on thermal fluids and two-phase flow problems in the petroleum industry as a consultant and as a thermo-fluids
