Biography

Harrison Caddy is a research fellow and mechanical engineer specializing in biomedical, agricultural, and ecological restoration engineering. His PhD research focused on understanding how the cardiovascular system responds to extreme environments, particularly under conditions of reduced gravity and elevated heat stress. This research involved the development of three-dimensional models of human and animal micro blood vessel networks, with a specific emphasis on superficial retinal vasculature, using computational fluid dynamics. His work aims to aid planning for future planetary spaceflight missions to the Moon and Mars and improve health-screening methods for terrestrial workers in military training operations and remote environments. Currently, he works at the Centre for Engineering Innovation, applying his expertise in computational simulation to explore fluid-soil interactions and assist in designing custom machinery for restoring landscapes in South-West and Northern Pilbara regions of Western Australia. Caddy's research aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, contributing to efforts to end poverty and protect the planet.
