Interview with Oregon State University research engineer Erica Fischer. As wildfires increasingly affect communities and civil infrastructure, structural engineers apply their expertise in interdependent lifeline systems and structures. Fischer says engineers are primed to investigate “urban conflagrations” in all phases, including community adaptation and mitigation. She cites research findings from the 2018 Camp Fire in Paradise, CA, which led to valuable new understandings about water pipeline contamination.

Dr. Erica Fischer, Assistant Professor of Structural Engineering at Oregon State University, joins Lisa Dent to explain how quickly wildfires can spread and why some structures in Hawaii were spared in the midst of the chaos.

The 2018 Camp Fire caused significant damage to the education, healthcare and water infrastructure systems in the town of Paradise, CA. Oregon State University professor Erica Fischer was part of a team of researchers who set out to study how the town recovered, what mitigation efforts were successful in protecting school buildings and what lessons Paradise has for other communities affected by wildfire. Fischer joins us to talk about the findings.

Wildfires that devastate mountain communities have the potential to foul the water distribution system running underneath residential structures. But knowing which water pipes have been affected is challenging. Erica Fischer, assistant professor of structural engineering, is working with a team of engineers and scientists to develop and test sensors that can easily indicate if water pipes need to be replaced following a fire.

Women were long steered away from STEM fields, including engineering, as it was thought that women did not possess the analytical skills to excel.    Girls and women are systematically tracked away from science and math throughout their educations, limiting their training and options to go into these fields as adults. The gender gaps are particularly high in some of the fastest-growing and highest-paid jobs of the future, like computer science and engineering.   Join me in this episode as I interview Dr.  Erica Fischer, one of the small percentage of women working in the civil engineering and construction industry. Erica is a Structural Engineering Professor, Earthquake Reconnaissance Disaster Researcher, and a licensed Professional Engineer in the states of California and Washington. She got her Bachelor's Degree from Cornell University and a Ph.D. from Purdue University. Prior to becoming a professor at Oregon State University, she was a structural engineer in New York and Seattle where she focused mainly on renovations and retrofits of existing buildings.   She has served in a number of positions throughout Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI), from president of the Purdue EERI student chapter to becoming one of the founding members of the EERI Younger Members Committee and Virtual Earthquake Reconnaissance Team.   Erica strives to provide opportunities for younger members of the organization to have a voice so they can take active roles and expand the awareness of their committee.   In this conversation, Erica walks us through the things she does as an engineer and the research projects she's currently working on. Erica shares her experience being the only woman in her engineering class and how she was treated when she entered the male-dominated engineering workplace.    Find out how having a community helped her bounce back from failures and how she didn't succumb to the roles and expectations society has placed on her and on women in general.   Episode Highlights: Why looking young as a woman can sometimes be challenging in a workplace dominated by men Erica talks about the percentage of females working in the engineering industry The importance of imagination and why it should be taught early Why you should maintain your individuality Dealing with imposter syndrome Why Erica decided to shift from industry into the academia Erica's disaster research project Learning to fail and then bouncing back again Why you should be in a community of like-minded people who lift you up   Connect with Erica Twitter @erica_fischer Linkedin Erica Fischer - website Learn more about Erica and her work at EERI

The multifamily industry is beginning to embrace the benefits of mass timber, such as labor cost benefits and lower overall weight of the building. As new buildings are proposed and designed, developers need to know about various factors that contribute to the fire and seismic safety of these tall mass timber buildings. In this podcasts from our "Developers in an Age of Disruption series," editor David Myron speaks with Erica Fischer, assistant professor at Oregon State University’s School of Civil and Construction Engineering, to address these safety factors.

Ihren persönlichen Bezug zu Feminismus und Frauenbewegung hat Erica Fischer in ihrem Buch „Feminismus revisited“ beschrieben (in dem übrigens auch Katrin Rönicke und der Lila Podcast vorkommen). Fischer kennen bestimmt einige als Autorin des Bestsellers „Aimée und Jaguar“ – sie schaut nicht nur in die Vergangenheit, sondern auch in die Zukunft.
