Five published research concepts structured around Maslow’s foundational tiers of human needs, exploring integrated, human-centred technologies that form a closed-loop survival ecosystem. From breathable air to sustainable energy, each priority builds upon the last.
Theoretical Foundation
Each research priority maps to a fundamental tier of human survival, sequenced by urgency.

Five Published Research Concepts
Physiological
WEAN O₂ — Wearable Enrichment AI-Enabled Neuro-Adaptive Oxygen
A proposed wearable oxygen enrichment concept for patients with chronic respiratory conditions. WEAN O₂ envisions real-time SpO₂ monitoring, adaptive flow control, and neuro-adaptive algorithms to optimise oxygen delivery during weaning and rehabilitation. This is an early-stage research concept, not a built or validated device. It addresses the most immediate tier of human survival: the ability to breathe.
Physiological
Navier–Stokes Fluid Dynamics — 3D Global Regularity
A proposed resolution to the Clay Mathematics Institute Millennium Prize Problem for the 3D incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. The depletion-based reduction framework reduces global regularity to a single frequency gain condition in Littlewood–Paley space. The extended proof incorporates gravitational stratification, Coriolis dispersion, and electromagnetic regularisation to establish the frequency gain exponent θ > 0.
Safety
Cebu City Flood Resilience AI — Multi-Nation Engineering Blueprint
A comprehensive flood resilience engineering blueprint for Cebu City, Philippines, drawing on proven technologies from four nations: the Netherlands (Maeslantkering, Delta Works), the United Kingdom (Thames Barrier), Singapore (Marina Barrage, ABC Waters), and Japan (G-Cans, Super Levees). The referenced technologies are proven in their home countries; the proposed integration and AI coordination layer for Cebu is a research concept that has not yet been built or tested.
Safety
Human BIOCARE — Byproducts Integrated Oasis Conversion Application Recovery to Energy
A closed-loop energy recovery system that converts biological, environmental, and kinetic inputs into usable energy. Human BIOCARE explores decentralised energy recovery from human byproducts, micro-scale sustainability architectures, and adaptive infrastructure designed for resilience in extreme or resource-constrained environments. This research forms the enabling layer that supports all foundational survival needs.

Staff Digital Pathway — Self-Service Evaluation & Fast-Track Care Access
A staff self-care digital pathway proposed for NHS hospital environments, featuring a self-service medical observation kiosk that enables healthcare workers to record their own vital signs rapidly when they become unwell at work. The system provides automated measurements including blood pressure, pulse, oxygen saturation, weight, height, and BMI, with results shared directly with clinical teams for rapid triage.
Looking Ahead
Beyond the five published priorities, at least ten additional research ideas are currently being developed to further expand this framework. These concepts extend the survival ecosystem into areas including space systems, off-grid habitats, disaster response environments, and advanced healthcare delivery models.
The research connects healthcare, environmental systems, and advanced technology, reflecting a broader vision of creating scalable, sustainable solutions applicable to future-focused contexts. Each concept is informed by over a decade of frontline clinical experience in respiratory care, patient safety, and complex systems management.
