Foreword
Welcome to the Wellington Institute of Technology's (WelTec)
Annual Research Report. This is the seventh formal report of our
research and technology development activities.
The 2013 Annual Research Report provides an insight into the
diverse areas of our research and development activities and
includes three profiles of our teaching and learning advisory staff
and their fascinating areas of research, as well as the significant
contribution that three of our students make to our research
and development. This research report is also a record of the
publications, achievements, and recognition of our staff and
represents the extensive range of research areas, and professions
and industries they are involved in.
I am particularly proud of the staff who are nearing the end of their
journey towards higher qualifications, whether they are striving
towards a PhD or a Masters. A number of our staff have just started
out, and to them, I wish them all the best for their journey which, at
the end, can only be rewarding. The benefit to themselves, their
students and their peers, is significant in terms of teaching and the
development of their careers. By setting high standards, this can
only be of benefit to the research culture at WelTec.
04
Building our research capability and capacity will continue to
contribute to our desire for excellence, which includes participation
in the Performance Based Research Fund (PBRF). This report
comes after the release of the results of our first participation in 2012
which has enabled us to benchmark ourselves within the Institute of
Technology and Polytechnic (ITP) sector. I am delighted to see the
institute positioned mid-table among ITPs which can only augur well
for the future.
Much of our research activity in 2013 is related to the areas we teach,
and to increasing the productivity of local and national businesses.
Collaboration was also a feature for 2013, not only among our staff,
but with other Metro ITPs, with our strategic partner, Whitireia, and
outside the sector.
I am pleased to present the research and development achievements
for WelTec for 2013, and hope that you are enlightened by the
activities of our staff and students, and I look forward to continuing
this success in 2014.
Dr Linda Sissons
Chief Executive

Introduction
Research endeavours at WelTec represent a rich and diverse range of
activities which make valuable contributions to business and industry,
wider society and the communities that the Institute serves.
One particular focus of the research conducted at WelTec is to inform
the teaching of the degrees that we offer. Across a broader spectrum of
research and development activities, we also aim to address the needs
of industry and professions by providing clever technology transfer,
problem solving and innovation. In this report you will see evidence of the
Institute’s involvement across all of these areas.
WelTec is now a participant in the Tertiary Education Commission’s
Performance Based Research Fund (PBRF). The work that our staff
have done to participate in the Quality Evaluation is now well reflected
in the outcomes from the funding round. Not only do our researchers
benefit from the funding outcomes but the Institute is also able to benefit
from the external research and development activity that is income
generating. This is an important development in building our research
and development capability and capacity, and positions us well for the
next funding round in 2018.
Collaboration was a key feature of our research and development
activity in 2013. With our Metro partner institutes we hosted the ITP
Technology Transfer Symposium in Wellington in July. The symposium
was accompanied by an Industry Showcase event which allowed Metro
institutes to present to a wide group of stakeholders,
the research and development work they are doing with New Zealand
industry

Valuing Learning
Helping students to succeed and get the most out of their studies is the focus for
Mervyn Protheroe and Fiona Breen in their role as WelTec Learning Advisors. They
are certain that learning advisors play an important role in a student’s success.
Nothing makes them happier than hearing, “I got an A for my assignment”, from a
student who has received academic advice.
In 2013, they began a study to quantify the effectiveness of the work of Learning
Advisors by comparing the retention, success and final grades of students who had
received learning support against those students who did not use their services.
Their initial findings show that students studying at higher levels, using learning
advisory services had fewer appointments than those studying at lower levels, and
yet achieved greater success than those at lower level students.
Mervyn says, “As Learning Advisors, we help students complete their assignments
and theory-based course work by giving them strategies to use. The advice we give
can be as simple as talking to them about time management and planning their
work, or as complex as helping them to understand assignment requirements and
clarifying the questions.”
Mervyn has been a Learning Advisor at WelTec for the last 14 years, initially
providing learning advice across all subject areas. Latterly, he has been providing
specialist advice for information technology, engineering and mathematics students.
During this time he completed his doctorate investigating how students seek
help and developed recommendations to help learning advisors in their roles. He
recommends that Learning Advisors emphasise to students that seeking help is not
unusual and is a legitimate approach to improving their achievement. It is important
that students who seek help are not viewed negatively. Mervyn’s doctoral research
has helped him and his colleagues advise students in new and more effective ways.
Working alongside Mervyn, Fiona has found the research experience highly
rewarding. “It’s very useful to quantify the value of learning advisory services, as the
right assistance at an opportune time can make all the difference to our students,”
says Fiona who is the Learning Advisor with the School of Hospitality.
Fiona and Mervyn presented their findings at the first joint WelTec/Whitireia
Research Symposium, and subsequently at two national tertiary Learning Advisor
and Student Support Services conferences. Their presentations generated
considerable interest and praise from the academic advisory and educational
research community as there has been little quantitative research on the effect that
Learning Advisors have on student success.
Mervyn explains, “The value of our research is that we keep investigating our
practice. This provides indications of our effectiveness and where we can improve
our provision to students so that they can achieve at their best.

Stimulating Creativity
Bachelor of Creative Technologies Tutor, Malcolm Doidge, works as part of a
collaborative teaching team, undertakes research and maintains his own art practice.
Malcolm has also just embarked on a two year Master of Fine Art at Massey University.
Malcolm’s work, which includes two and three dimensional work, installations and new
media, has been selected for several national art awards including the NCC Art Award,
Anthony Harper Art Award, Trust Waikato Art Award and most recently, the 2013
Wallace Art Award and touring show.
Malcolm describes the approach to his work as ‘bricolage’, a French term for tinkering.
He takes everyday items and applies creativity in the workshop to transform them
into something unexpected. Malcolm is interested in how everyday objects, such as
brooms and wheelbarrows, can be altered to make the familiar seem very unfamiliar.
His art materials reflect their origins in ‘big box’ retailers and draws attention to this by
transforming these mass produced items into objects that comment on sustainability
and consumerism.
“I am cautious about recycling and reuse as the art’s comment on sustainability” says
Malcolm. “My work is about sustainability but in a wider context. What is it that attracts
people to cheap goods and DIY? Humour is also part of my work.”
Malcolm is also interested in imitation and how ideas change as they are spread.
“Humans are constantly imitating and copying and, in doing so they introduce error in
this process and produce something new.
As a teacher, Malcolm says it’s important that students are involved in project-based
learning. “Learning skills is important as it helps them be flexible in their thinking and
their work. Students encounter problems, work together with what they have, and adapt
their ideas. Solving technical and creative problems is an important part of their learning
process.”
Tutors in the School of Creative Technologies are working together to develop new
ways of delivering project-based learning. “The Creative Technologies whanaungatanga
- we’re all in this together - is becoming central to our thinking. Also our tikanga - the
way we do things here - is to work collaboratively for the benefit of everybody.”
This whanaungatanga carries over to Malcolm’s Masters research. He explains that he is
studying with colleagues and it’s important to see and support what others are doing.

Sound Networks
The fields of computer music and computer audio have always been of interest to Andrew
Eales, a Senior Academic Staff Member who teaches programming on the Bachelor of
Information Technology degree. Andrew completed a Master of Music in Composition
while also playing clarinet part-time in the South African National Symphony Orchestra,
and went on to become a Lecturer in theoretical music subjects for nine years. During this
time, he became interested in computer music and completed undergraduate studies in
Computer Science.
A sabbatical spent writing software for spatialised sound was followed by a Master of
Science in Computer Science at Rhodes University. The research in Andrew’s thesis
addressed the design of music notation software, and was awarded the bronze research
medal from the South African Academy for the Advancement of Science, recognising
the best research dissertations in Science, Engineering and Technology at South African
Universities.
Andrew’s current research interests involve the control and management of networked
audio devices. He has developed a standard model of networked devices and a novel
network environment that supports the discovery and control of these devices. He
explains that cable connections between audio devices such as mixing consoles,
amplifiers and microphones are being replaced by network connections. This allows a
tablet or a smart phone to be used to control an audio device such as a mixing console.
The challenge is getting these devices to talk to each other in an accurate and efficient
manner. By developing a standard device model and a networked environment that uses
this model, networked devices are able to communicate in an easier and more efficient
manner. This research forms part of his PhD in Computer Science which is nearing
completion.
Research into audio networks has led him to becoming a member of a technical
committee and a standards committee of the Audio Engineering Society. These
committees develop new standards for audio networks and liaise with other standards
committees such as the Internet Engineering Task Force which oversees the Internet.
In 2013, he presented a paper at the New York Convention of the Audio Engineering
Society and was also an invited panelist discussing the current state of audio networking.
This four-day annual event for industry and academia drew over eighteen-thousand
registrations and included over two hundred papers and presentations.
Andrew notes that students benefit from his research because they can see the potential
of his ideas in an area of interest to them. He explains that the fundamental principles
are widely applicable and so simple, that people often overlook them and adopt more
complex solutions. Looking to the future is difficult, as the audio industry is currently
adopting a variety of new network technologies. Andrew may consider patenting his ideas
before other organisations get the opportunity to develop them further.

Aiming High
In 2013, James Wu was studying towards his New Zealand Diploma in Engineering
when he was awarded a Product Development Internship at WelTec’s Centre
for Smart Product. James was delighted with this as it allowed him to work on
developing a product for the project component of his Engineering diploma and
continue his studies at the same time.
In fact James found himself working on a number of projects while at the Centre,
one of which involved taking an existing device and adapting it so the Department
of Conservation could use it for weed and gorse control in remote and inaccessible
parts of the country.
Allan Tod, from Creek Grange ACE Limited, had developed a gas-powered projectile
used for avalanche control, which he called the ACE Round which is now successfully
used in New Zealand and many countries overseas. The New Zealand Department
of Conservation had approached Allan to see if the ACE Round could be modified to
control weeds and gorse.
As an avalanche control device, the ACE Round activates after it penetrates into the
snow. For weed and gorse control, a new activator needed to be developed that
would cause the two-part front of the ACE Round to split apart and let the seeds or
weed control pellets fall to the ground. The modified device would enable coverage
of areas that are hard for Department of Conservation staff to access by foot and
would easily cover a much larger area.
Allan approached Paul Mather from WelTec’s Centre for Smart Product for help. The
Centre for Smart Product acts as an interface between businesses - which have realworld problems to solve - and WelTec researchers, students and resources.
Paul saw the potential and realised that not only would this make an ideal project for
an Engineering student, but that James would be the ideal student to take this on.
Working with a commercial client and having a “real” project to work on was valuable
– James says “I learn a lot better when I do something, rather than just reading the
textbooks and doing calculations. You also learn about customer service, meeting
their needs, and making them happy”.
James successfully developed a new electronic activator and the modified ACE
Round is now ready for field testing.
James is intending to continue his studies towards a Bachelor of Engineering
Technology and found the experience of working on industry projects very valuable.

“ Having a ‘real’
project to work
on was valuable.”

Advancing Skills
Six years ago the first generation bionic hands came onto the market, priced at
US$95,000. Mat Jury, from 5th Element Limited in the Hutt Valley, was perplexed by
the cost and began a garage project. Mat gained an appreciation of what it was like to
lose a hand after a mountain bike accident which resulted in both his arms and wrists
being in plaster.
Internationally, there is major interest and investment in advanced prosthetics.
Wanting to develop a robust prosthetic hand has taken the garage project to full time
product development.
Mat first approached WelTec in 2010 for expert help to further develop his prosthetic
hand and the Centre for Smart Product was called in to help with developing specific
parts. The project brief was to select suitable materials and standard components
which needed to be analysed and tested, and validated for manufacturing use. This
project was at the leading edge and involved using high end manufacturing methods
including 3D printing with titanium.
Andrew Rodger, an Engineering Consultant from Centre for Smart Product with
a background in rapid product development who has been involved in numerous
product development projects, took charge of the project.
Andrew employed a recent Bachelor of Engineering Technology graduate, Daniel
Taylor, on a one-year Graduate Internship to work on the prosthetic hand. The
internship allowed Daniel to develop his skills as a mechanical engineer and product
developer under Andrew’s supervision, using the knowledge he gained from his degree
in mechanical engineering to further develop the prosthesis so that Mat could move
closer to commercial production.
“Working on the prosthetic hand was a worthwhile project” said Daniel. “It set me up
for the workplace”. Having the Graduate Internship has contributed to his CV and
portfolio.
This is one of the many examples of “someone with a good idea” who approached
WelTec because the Centre for Smart Product could add value and support them in
their product development to a point where it can attract commercial investment. It
also demonstrates an approach which supports local businesses and industry and
gives WelTec students and graduates experience in creating potentially commercial
products – the businesses gain access to WelTec resources and at the same time the
student gains invaluable experience.
Daniel is now using his product development and mechanical engineering knowledge
and skills at Calvert Plastics in the Hutt Valley. No doubt the company and customers
will benefit from the time Daniel spent on the Graduate Internship with Centre for
Smart Product. Andrew says “The experience that the graduates and students gain on
our internships is invaluable”

Building a Winner
Bachelor of Engineering Technology graduate, Anthony Muir, has gained much more
from his study than a valuable qualification. His final year project has been recognised
with the Institute of Professional Engineers of NZ Ray Meyer Medal for Excellence
in Student Design. This is the second consecutive year that a WelTec Engineering
Technology graduate has won the medal.
Anthony’s project involved developing and validating a new system to manage the
peak flows from extreme rain events. The system comprises flow separation and a
series of underground holding tanks which attenuates the water flowing into the
environment. His study demonstrated that when the system is installed for any
development, the run-off from the land does not exceed pre-development levels,
delivering improved environmental performance with considerable cost savings.
Anthony’s attenuation system has the potential for international as well as local
applications. When used in new residential developments the savings can be up to
$500,000 for the developer, and with lower ongoing infrastructure costs for ratepayers
as it needs almost no maintenance.
As a carpenter in his family’s construction company, Anthony returned to education
over ten years ago when the industry first indicated a need for tradespeople to
do continuing professional development. He started with a National Diploma in
Architectural Technology at WelTec. He enjoyed the experience and went on to
complete a New Zealand Diploma in Engineering. This was followed by a research
paper at Victoria University of Wellington. He was asked to present this paper at the
43rd Annual Conference of the Australian and New Zealand Architectural Science
Association in Tasmania in 2009.
Anthony, who started his career as a builder’s labourer has also published a research
paper in the Architectural Science Review. The paper on his attenuation system was
prepared with his WelTec supervisor Bob McGrath and will be presented at Water New
Zealand’s Stormwater 2014 conference.
This has all been achieved by Anthony while continuing to work full time. He is now
an architectural engineer for the family business and is teaming up with his father to
prepare his patented new system for the market.
“I’m a different man to the one I was 10 years ago,” says Anthony. “I’m more confident, I
can organise my ideas and communicate them confidently. But what pleases me most
about all these new skills is that I can use them to help solve people’s problems. My
ongoing learning has also helped me identify the best education opportunities. I can
honestly say the professionalism, teaching quality and commitment to students at the
School of Engineering Technology at WelTec is absolutely superb.”

“By using new
skills I can use
them to help
solve people’s
problems.”

the contribution of mental health support workers to New Zealand mental health
services.
Events
A major highlight for WelTec in 2013 was receiving its first result in the
Performance Based Research Fund (PBRF). As a first time participating
organisation in this government level external measure of research, WelTec placed
mid-table amongst participating Institutes of Technology and Polytechnics (ITP).
This is an indication of the quality of the research undertaken by the staff and
shows the institute is well-placed for the future.
In July, the first ITP Technology Transfer Symposium and Industry Showcase was
held in Wellington. This was a collaborative event organised and led by the Metro
ITPs which comprises Christchurch Polytechnic and Institute of Technology (CPIT),
Manukau Institute of Technology (MIT), Otago Polytechnic, Unitec Institute of
Technology (Unitec), WelTec, and Waikato Institute of Technology (Wintec).
35
The Metro ITPs are leading the way for industry-engaged research which has
immediate and practical outcomes, and shared ideas on Research and Technology
Transfer. The event was well attended by most ITPs, as well as representatives
from the Tertiary Education Commission, Ministry for Business, Innovation and
Employment, and Callaghan Innovation, who also contributed to the programme.
To round off the year, WelTec and Whitireia strengthened the strategic partnership
between the two institutions by holding the first Joint Research Symposium. Titled
“Making Connections” staff provided their colleagues with an insight into their
research, and enjoyed the opportunity to create links and research collaborations.
Keynote presentations were given by Emeritus Professor Dennis Robinson
(University of Nebraska Medical Center) and WelTec Youth Development tutor,
Dr Fiona Beals.
External Funding
WelTec was the recipient of two research grants from Ako Aotearoa in 2013. A
three-year National Project Fund project to explore the use of language in the
Trades is being led at WelTec by Dr James Mackay in collaboration with researchers
from Victoria University of Wellington. Ako Aotearoa Regional Hub funding was
received for a study to evaluate the success of Pacific learners in the Trades,
specifically focussed on the Pacific Trades Initiative established by the government
in response to the Tertiary Education Strategies.
International Visitor
Professor Bob Lambourne, from The Open University and Chair of the
International Commission on Physics Education, was hosted by Dr James Mackay
on a visit to WelTec. While at the institution Professor Lambourne presented a
seminar to staff on educational physics.
International Relationship
The relationship between WelTec and the South Westphalia University of
Applied Sciences, Department of Engineering and Economics at the Meschede
campus, continues to be strong following the signing of the first Memorandum
of Association in 2007. Since then 19 Engineering students from Meschede have
undertaken internships in New Zealand through WelTec’s Centre for Smart Product
and two WelTec students from the School of Business and Information Technology
and the School of Engineering Technology have undertaken internships at
Meschede. As a sign of the continuing strength of the relationship, Professor Dr
Patrick Scheunemann will visit WelTec to undertake research and teach classes in
the School of Engineering Technology.
Students
Our students continue to work on high quality, industry relevant projects with
support from their supervisors (in brackets).
Bachelor of Engineering Technology prize winning student Anthony Muir (Bob
McGrath), featured on Page 28, validated his Peak Flow Attenuation System which
36
reduces the effect of extreme rain events in new land developments. Dominic
McKeown (Bob McGrath) conducted a survey of Wellington city households into
water usage habits to get information for future water capacity planning. Mark
Anderson (Bob McGrath) analysed the life cycle costs of jet pumps in storm water
catchment management. Developing a barnacle breaker was Shaun Hollow’s
(Frank Cook) project brief with New Zealand Diving and Salvage Ltd. Kushal
Gautam (Frans Weehuizen) and Nathan Strawbridge (Frans Weehuizen) each
worked on projects at Callaghan Innovation to develop superconductor flux pumps,
and to design a synchronous generator load simulator. The on-going relationship
with Callaghan Innovation ensures WelTec students can work on projects with
an organisation that drives the innovation sector in New Zealand. A result of this
relationship was the Ray Meyers Medal prize-winning work of Lachlan Clelland,
featured in the 2012 Research Report.
Bachelor of Information Technology students also undertake projects in their third
year. Andrew Lauv and Ardian Silvandianto (Paul Bryant) continued a project
on New Zealand practices in the disposal of data storage devices. Developing a
series of reports for Capital and Coast District Health Board on the submission of
maternity data was the focus for Liam Nattras, Daniel Dixon, Gabriel Hema and
Luke van Soest (Rhys Owen) developed a calibration rig for multi-axis movement
sensors for John Gould’s research in robotic navigation. Anna Boyd and Karl Ellis
(Rhys Owen) developed interfaces for SNMP-compliant network devices in support
of Andrew Eales’ research in network control protocols. Two projects emerged
through Grow Wellington: Bevan Clarke, Natalie Johnson and Mustafa Ogab
(Andrew Eales) developed a proof of concept application to promote specialist
electronic identity management solutions; Helen James, Hema Paspuleti and
Chesda Roth, (Steve McKinlay) evaluated online business suites in the custom print
industry.
The final year exhibition is the highlight for Bachelor of Creative Technologies
students. Deidre Utopo (Craig Anderson) used graphic design and photography in
“Aganu’u”, an online account of her journey to connect with her Samoan heritage.
She photographed people with traditional and contemporary tatau finding they
had a common intent to connect with their culture and heritage. Vanessa Young’s
(Tony De Goldi) interior design concept was to characterise a city with aesthetically
pleasing public spaces which are functional and attractive, serving as backdrops for
social events and activities. Through design and use, her pop-up type stall provides
diversity and enjoyment. Vanessa received an internship from the Centre for Smart
Product. Influenced by recent drought events in the Wellington region and the
impact on the environment, graphic and web design student Yae Takahashi (Craig
Anderson) designed an interactive and educational website to inform residents
about water pollution and water conservation.
