A passion for excellence and discovery

Drawing on innovation and his diverse interests, Professor Kevin Hall is contributing to the University’s global research success.

The University of Newcastle is a research-led university built on the foundation of discovery and access to new knowledge. At the helm of this discovery is Professor Kevin Hall, an accomplished civil engineer and the University’s Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Innovation).

“I have the best job on campus,” he acknowledges.

"I’m lucky to have a hand in nurturing the careers of some of our boldest and brightest."

It’s gratifying being able to bring in the next generation of experts and watch them grow as articulate, empathetic and inspiring thinkers and doers.

Balancing act

Running his own hydro technology company for seven years between his undergraduate and PhD studies, Kevin has been a visionary from the very beginning. Designing a handful of the world’s most beautiful and mechanically sound harbours, marinas and beaches before undertaking a PhD at the University of New South Wales, the Canadian native didn’t expect to “enjoy” research so much.

“I saw it purely as a business advantage,” he confesses.

“Not many engineering consultants had their doctorates in the early 1980s.”

“During my candidature I concentrated on measuring waves and understanding how they propagate through coastal structures, such as breakwaters.”

Deciding not to return to the corporate realm after receiving his award in 1986, Kevin joined Canada’s Queen’s University. As somebody who likes to be involved in a “variety of things,” he undertook research in a number of different areas.

“For a long while, my primary area of strength was numerical modelling, which uses equations and other mathematical techniques to represent natural processes,” he explains.

“A national event involving pathogens caught my attention however, and expanded my focus.

“A number of young and elderly people died because of a particular strain of e. coli bacteria that was present in the public drinking supply in a small town in Ontario.”

Collaborating with a team of physicists, biochemists and mechanical engineers, Kevin looked to construct an automated pathogen detection system to “ensure this wouldn’t happen again.”

“The project led to a start-up business that we built up over three or so years,” he recalls. “It was then sold to a French water consortium.”

Dually exploring water quality and its impacts on health, Kevin’s multidisciplinary effort also prepared him for successful partnerships across a number of sectors ranging from public health to coastal protection.

Several members of his research team developed design techniques for artificial surfing reefs which also provided shoreline protection.

Sense and sustainability

Kevin relocated to the University of Guelph in southwestern Ontario in 2008, signing on to become its Vice-President (Research). Though conceding the executive role to be a “one and a half time job by itself,” the distinguished educator and innovator affirms he still made plenty of room for research.

“For the past 20 years I have been working in the urban slums of India and Africa where there is no infrastructure, sanitation, or fresh drinking water,” he conveys.

“Adapting relatively simple, effective and low cost technology, my team has helped the women in these communities design and implement equipment that is easy to use and will provide fresh drinking water at the household level.”

“The hope is that they will make a business and sell the units to the areas adjacent to them.”

“It is very meaningful research and it has a lot of impact – which you see right away.”

Down under

Kevin returned to Australia in March 2014, accepting the position of Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Innovation) at the University of Newcastle. Continuing to work with his head and lead with his heart, the sharp strategist admits this newest role is as demanding as it is rewarding.

“I’m an enthusiastic and vocal supporter of our researchers,” he shares.

“One of my main responsibilities is to promote their efforts to local communities, state and federal politicians, businesses and non-government organisations, and international institutions.”

“Getting to know what we’re doing here on campus is a really cool part of the job.”

Kevin is also pushing the frontiers of a burgeoning academic arena – interdisciplinarity.

“By being made aware of who’s investigating what, I can link people together, like our powerhouse respiratory medicine network with scientists from the Hunter Valley, Sweden, Britain, North America and Singapore,” he affirms.

“Australia is moving more and more into an ‘Innovation Agenda,’ which will see us use knowledge to drive the economy and buffer ourselves against some of the global crises that are occurring around commodity prices.”

“This, by default, means we need to start working in teams of varying skills and professional fields.”

[more] Wave protection for an offshore rockfill structure was developed using two and three dimensional hydraulic model studies. The wave protection scheme, designed to survive a design storm having a peak significant wave height of 33 feet, consists of a 75 foot wide outer berm of 3.9 to 19 ton angular quarry stone placed between elevations of -55 and +10 feet (MSL) and a conventional two stone armour layer between +10 and +30 feet (MSL). The stability of the structure is developed during early periods of wave action as stones are moved and the outer berm is reshaped into a stable profile. Test results indicate that if design wave conditions are exceeded, rapid disintegration of the armour layer would not occur. The armour system is designed so that essentially 100 per cent of the quarry is utilized and so that it can be built using land based equipment that primarily consists of a truck dumping operation.

[more] Studies the history of armour system design and examines the performance of these systems in protecting rubble mound breakwaters. Quarried stone systems include random placement, regular placement, and on alternative scheme. Considers design formulae for these systems and some design limitations. Randomly placed concrete armour units are often of complex shape for better interlocking. Occasionally the units are reinforced. Regularly placed concrete units can show high stability but construction may be difficult. Examines formulae for estimating the weight of an armour unit, noting limitations of the Hudson formula. Notes the differences among various model studies to determine stability of the armour layer. Discusses the causes of recent rubble mound failures, and hence develops recommended design procedures. Discussion is on pages 121- 132. (C.J.U.)

© 2017, © The Author(s) 2017. Field studies on household water treatment and safe storage (HWTS) suggest that positive health outcomes are strongly linked to user compliance. We investigated factors that influenced compliance in a marginalized community of South India where residents worked with researchers to develop a water treatment intervention in absence of government water utilities. Survey and water quality data were collected during a 12-month randomized controlled trial of 124 households. Data were used to construct indices for social, technical, and institutional predictors of compliance including technological effectiveness, gender, community capacity, perceived benefit, and inherent demand. Perceived benefit was the only parameter to be significantly associated with compliance. Households in which participants had ¿very high¿ levels of perceived benefit were over 4 times more likely to comply with instructions on water treatment and maintenance with the HWTS. These findings suggest that compliance, and therefore disease prevention, can be improved by enhancing perceived benefit to the user.

© IWA Publishing 2016. Bacterially-contaminated water is a major health concern leading to infectious diseases in emerging nations. The use of copper (Cu) and silver (Ag) wire independently, and Cu wire in combination with synthetic sunlight (SySu), were investigated as a low-cost water treatment method. Water inoculated with 1, 100 colony forming units/mL of Escherichia coli was treated with one of these four treatments: (1) 50 cm 2 /L surface area (SA) pure Cu wire; (2) 37.8 W/m 2 SySu irradiation; (3) a 50 cm 2 /L SA pure Cu wire combined with the 37.8 W/m 2 SySu irradiation; and (4) 5 cm 2 /L pure Ag wire. An improved rate of bacterial inactivation was achieved using the combined Cu-SySu treatment method compared to either treatment applied independently. When given independently, the Ag wire treatment was more effective than the Cu wire treatment. Cu and Ag content in the water, tested at the end of the experiment, remained far below the safety limits suggested by the World Health Organization. The Cu-SySu combination method has a great potential to be used as a low-cost, re-useable, low-maintenance method of choice for purification of contaminated drinking water.

© 2015 Taylor & Francis. Point-of-use water treatment has received widespread application in the developing world to help mitigate waterborne infectious disease. This study examines the efficacy of a combined filter and chemical disinfection technology in removing bacterial contaminants, and more specifically changes in its performance resulting from seasonal weather variability. During a 12-month field trial in Chennai, India, mean log-reductions were 1.51 for E. coli and 1.67 for total coliforms, and the highest concentration of indicator bacteria in treated water samples were found during the monsoon season. Analysis of variance revealed significant differences in the microbial load of indicator organisms (coliforms and E. coli) between seasons, storage time since treatment (TST), and samples with and without chlorine residuals. Findings indicate that the bacteriological quality of drinking water treated in the home is determined by a complex interaction of environmental and sociological conditions. Moreover, while the effect of disinfection was independent of season, the impact of storage TST on water quality was found to be seasonally dependent.

Robertson B, Gharabaghi B, Hall K, 'Prediction of Incipient Breaking Wave-Heights Using Artificial Neural Networks and Empirical Relationships', Coastal Engineering Journal, 57 (2015) [C1]

© 2015 World Scientific Publishing Company. The accurate prediction of shallow water breaking heights is paramount to better understanding complex nonlinear near shore coastal processes. Over the past 150 years, numerous empirical relationships have been proposed based on scaled laboratory datasets. This study utilizes a newly available field collected full-scale dataset of breaking wave conditions to investigate the accuracy of published empirical models and a novel artificial neural networks (ANN) model in predicting the final breaking wave-height for laboratory-scaled and full-scaled ocean waves. Performance is measured by comparison against both the field datasets and 465 separate datasets from 11 independent laboratory studies. The relationship of Rattanapitikon and Shibayama [2000 "Verification and modification of breaker height formulas," Coastal Eng. J. 42(4), 389-406.] outperformed all available empirical models when tested against only laboratory datasets, but was superseded by the relationship of Robertson et al. [2015 "Remote sensing of irregular breaking wave paramete rs in field conditions," J. Coastal Res. 31(2), 348-363.] when tested against only field datasets. Ho wever, this study noted that models developed based on scaled laboratory tests tend to underestimate the ocean full-scale breaking wave-heights. The training and testing of the ANN model were accomplished using 75% and 25% of the combined field and laboratory datasets. The ANN models consistently outperformed predictive accuracy of empirical models. Sensitivity analysis of the trained ANN models quantified the relative impact of individual wave parameters on the final breaking wave-height.

An array of perforated hollow hemispherical shaped artificial reefs (HSAR) can be used as a submerged breakwater to provide opportunities for environmental enhancement, aesthetics and wave protection in coastal areas due to their characteristics that are not found in conventional breakwaters. These characteristics include the ability to promote water circulation and provide a fish habitat enhancement capability. In this paper, a study of the parameters influencing wave transmission through the proposed submerged breakwater is presented based on two dimensional tests using regular and irregular water waves conducted at Queens University Coastal Engineering Research Laboratory (QUCERL). The influences of wave steepness (Hi/gT 2 ), reef proportion (h/B), submergence depth (h/d) and reef configurations on wave transmission was studied. Mathematical models for wave transmission were developed using Multiple Regression Analysis and can be used to predict the performance of the proposed submerged breakwater.

The interaction of a wave with a rubblemound breakwater results in a complex flow field which is both nonlinear and turbulent, particularly within a region close to the surface of the structure. Numerical models describing internal flow in a rubblemound breakwater are becoming increasingly important, particularly as the influence of scale effects on internal flow in physical hydraulic models are becoming understood as important. A number of numerical models to predict the internal breakwater flow kinematics have been produced in the past two decades. This paper provides a review of the state-of-the-art of numerical modelling of wave interaction with rubblemound breakwaters. Details of the theoretical development and the resulting numerical solution techniques are presented. Methods for incorporating secondary effects such as two phase (air-water) flow, inertia, and unbalanced boundary conditions are discussed. Limitations of the models resulting from the validity of the assumptions made in order to effect a numerical solution are discussed. (A)

Dynamically stable or berm breakwaters are structures in which the armour layer is comprised of a wide range of stone sizes and undergoes reshaping in response to wave action. As a result of this wave action, a stable profile is achieved. The effect of the gradation of armour stones and the amount of rounded stones in the armour on dynamically stable breakwaters was assessed in a two dimensional wave flume. A total of 52 series of tests were undertaken at the Coastal Engineering Research Laboartory of Queen's University, Kingston, Canada using irregular waves. Profiles of the structure during the various stages of reshaping were measured using a profiler developed for this study. Four gradations of armour stones were used giving a range in uniformity coefficient (D "SUB 85" /D "SUB 15" ) of 1.35 to 5.4. The core of the breakwaters was relatively permeable. The volume of stones and the initial berm width required for development of a stable profile along with the extent to which the toe of the structure progressed seaward were chosen as representative parameters of the reshaped breakwater. The results indicated that the toe width formed as a result of reshaping and the volume of stones required for reshaping were dependent on the gradation of the armour stone. The initial berm width required for reshaping was found to be dependent on both the gradation and the percentage of rounded stones in the armour. (A)

A series of experimental tests in which measurements of phreatic or free surface motion in a rubble mound breakwater were obtained, are discussed. The purpose of the experiments was to investigate the mechanism of wave energy dissipation and phreatic surface motion within the core, filter and armour zones of a breakwater. The influence of armour unit type, armour layer geometry, breakwater slope and construction materials were investigated. Tests were carried out on the model breakwater in a two-dimensional wave flume. The test methodology and instrumentation are described. Basic shapes of the phreatic surface found within the breakwater are presented. The average and maximum phreatic surface elevation was found to increase with increasing wave height, wave period and steeper slopes. The type of core and its permeability significantly influenced the surface profile.

Direct measurements of the motion of the phreatic surface within a breakwater and the pressure distribution at both the core-filter interface and the outer slope were made during a series of experimental tests (Hall 1987). The ability of a numerical internal flow model to reproduce these measured parameters is presented in this paper. The numerical model used, developed at the University of Windsor, Canada (Hannoura 1978) is a hybrid finite element method of characteristics model for solving unsteady non-Darcy flow in a porous medium. Several modifications were made to the model to make it compatible for use with the experimental data. The simulations were undertaken, representative of the wide range of conditions encountered in the experimental programme. (A)

Discusses a cheaper approach to breakwater construction using smaller rock than required by conventional breakwaters. The berm approach is based on the principle that the thicker the armour layer, the smaller the stones needed to protect against wave action. The relatively high porosity permits wave dissipation over a large area, increasing the stability of the breakwater. The berm approach uses locally available material, with the smaller fraction being used for the core of the structure and the larger fraction for the armour. Shape and dimension of the armour protection is determined from model studies. Compares cross sections and profiles of bermed and conventional breakwaters. (C.J.U.)

A rational design procedure for rubble-mound breakwater protection which will ensure both the structural integrity and hydraulic stability of individual concrete armour units and the overall armour system is presented. The procedure involves new experimental techniques for measuring strains in model concrete armour units in a hydraulic model of a breakwater subjected to simulated prototype loads on units. Selected design loads are used to define the resultant stress distribution to allow the designer to take the necessary measures to ensure the structural performance of the unit in a breakwater environment.
