Biography
Dr Daniel Liang has been a material scientist, processing engineer, project lead, team leader and group leader since 1993 after finished a PhD degree at Sheffield University, UK. Currently, as a senior principal research scientist and senior project leader working in the Advanced Materials and Processing program within CSIRO Manufacturing Clayton Victoria,
Daniel is leading and participating in a wide range of R&D projects and engagement activities for planning and developing advanced materials and processing technologies for diverse applications, such as transportation, aerospace (incl space), renewable energy, and biomedical devices. His current research pursuits are concentrated on unravelling the potential of mesoscopic functional metamaterials, structured at nano-micro scales to exhibit dynamic behaviours that challenge explanations by conventional materials sciences.
Daniel has authored and co-authored about 140 publications and reports, including more than 15 patent lodgements and invention reports, and co-supervised more than 10 PhD and master students. He is a member of Standards Australian representing Australia in ISO working group on “Ceramic Lined Tubing” (ISO/TC 67/SC 5/WG 5).
