Thesis Title

An Open Innovation Framework for Point-of-Care Design and Manufacturing

Supervisors

• Professor Glenda Amayo Caldwell  (Principal Supervisor)
• Professor Marianella Chamorro Koc  (Associate Supervisor)

Citation

This thesis explores how 3D technologies, like 3D printing and virtual reality, can enhance medical device innovation and become a seamless part of patient care pathways in Australian public hospitals. The research focuses on open innovation, value creation, and value capture strategies across hospitals, universities, communities, and industry. Using a case study methodology at the Herston Biofabrication Institute at Metro North Health, the thesis develops the TREEIO open innovation model and the OI-POCM framework to facilitate the use of point-of-care design and manufacturing. The findings contribute to policy development and open social innovation theory in public health.

Thesis Title

Personal Thermal Comfort in Dynamic Indoor Environments

Supervisors

• Dr Zhongdong Chen  (External Supervisor)
• Associate Professor Veronica Ruth Garcia Hansen  (Principal Supervisor)
• Adjunct Associate Professor Vahid Nik  (External Supervisor)
• Dr Sara Omrani  (Associate Supervisor)

Citation

This thesis explores how recent technological trends such as low-cost hardware, data science and AI can be used to improve and personalise thermal comfort modelling. It integrates the design of a personal thermal comfort monitoring device, a longitudinal field study and the development of a new framework for data-driven and personalised long-term thermal comfort modelling. The study underscores the importance of accommodating individual preferences and spatial variations in dynamic indoor environments and offers a new perspective on the integration of open-source technologies, data-driven methodologies, and AI in rethinking the role of thermal comfort in contemporary building design.

Thesis Title

Office Workers' Blind Control Behaviour in Open-Plan Offices

Supervisors

• Dr Alicia Caitlin Allan  (External Supervisor)
• Dr Keivan Bamdad Masouleh  (Associate Supervisor)
• Associate Professor Veronica Ruth Garcia Hansen  (Principal Supervisor)
• Dr Gillian Louise Isoardi  (External Supervisor)

Citation

This study was conducted using mixed methods research. A parametric framework for shading and daylighting simulations in open-plan offices was developed, wireless illuminance dataloggers were developed for field measurements in post-occupied offices, and ethnographic observations were conducted in two large open-plan offices to study occupant behaviour. Three empirical models of occupants’ shading behaviour were developed based on physical proximity to windows and vertical illuminance at eye height, with two showing an interaction effect.
