Modelling Australian agrifood supply chainsThis research aims to address Freight transport system limitations by applying a hybrid modelling approach that integrates both aggregate and disaggregate methods to analyse international and interregional freight flows. Specifically, it will combine macro-level freight generation and trip distribution models with behavioural freight modelling that captures firm-level decision-making. This dual-layered framework will allow for a more accurate and detailed understanding of the economic, logistical, and spatial factors influencing freight transport choices across various commodities and geographies.
Applying Volumetric Urbanism for smarter urban floor space usage strategiesUrban planning has extended its vision from horizontal to vertical to volumetric. This complex social and economic environment implicates 3D floor use change. We aim to establish an analytical model framework applying the principles of Volumetric Urbanism to assist the development of smart and sustainable urban floor space mixed use strategy.
