Dr. Xiuhua Si received her B.S. in Environmental Engineering; M.S. in Chemical Engineering; and her Ph.D.in Aerospace Engineering from Texas A&M University in College Station. Her dissertation was "Applications of the Thermodynamics of Elastic, Crystalline Materials with the Presence of stress and Electro-Magnetic Fields".

Prior to coming to CBU, Dr. Si worked as a research associate in the department of materials science and engineering department of Rice University and assistant professor of engineering at Calvin University. In the fall of 2014, Dr. Si joined the College of Engineering at 本色视频 as an Associate Professor. With the support of the department of mechanical engineering and the college of engineering, she started the Aerospace Engineering Minor within the department of mechanical engineering. She advised different mechanical engineering senior design teams in designing the COE wind-tunnel and various test equipment related to the tunnel.

Her research interests include heat transfer enhancement through reducing fouling deposition, Study crystalline materials behaviors under stress and electro-magnetic fields with thermodynamics, and developing more efficient drug delivery method through Comsol simulation. Some of her publications include 鈥淛. Xi, Z. Zhang, X. Si, J. Yang, and W. Deng, 2017: 鈥淥ptimization of magnetophoretic-guided drug delivery to the olfactory region in a human nose model in Biomechanics & Modeling in Mechanobiology, 鈥淴. Si, J. Xi, and X. Tao, 2010: The Study of Calcium Carbonate Scaling on Low Energy Surfaces鈥� in proceeding of the 14th International Heat Transfer Conference, and 鈥淴. Si, ES Oh, and JC Slattery, 2010: Compatibility constraint at interfaces with elastic, crystalline solids鈥揑: Theory, and II: Applications鈥�, in Philosophical Magazine.

Dr. Si has affiliations with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and American Society of Engineering Education.

She is married to Jinxiang Xi and they have a son. She learned to ski in the winter of 2013 and fell in love with the sport. She enjoys hiking both on the beach and in the mountains.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6
For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations. Psalm 100: 5
