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

The course is structured with a one-hour lecture where techniques arepresented and a two-hour lab where they are practiced. Module topics vary, but are typicallydesigned to be relevant to emerging technologies. Current examples include nanotechnology andsustainable energy.

their data management lifecycle as a dynamic process and as one element,albeit a key element, in their scholarly workflow. Researchers, for the most part, have thefundamentals of this workflow in mind, but do not necessarily have it explicitly outlined. This isparticularly critical as scientific researchers often rely on graduate students and/or post-docs forday-to-day management of laboratory studies and data recordkeeping. In developing a datamanagement instructional program, libraries take on the responsibilities of orienting graduatestudents and other personnel on basic data management skills.INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAMIt is clear that changing e-research technologies and methodologies have led to rapid changes inscholarly communication models
