RESEARCH PROFILE
dr. Qi Han is an assistant professor in sustainable transition in the built environment. Her research interests include modelling the transition process in urban environment, behaviour change and data-driven technology in resource optimization. She has been working on various topics linked with resource optimization in terms of land-use, building material, social network analysis, CO2, energy analysis, and choice of housing and work. In contribution to big data and AI, she has developed various models to efficiently provide decision support for planner and policymakers. Her recent works include also natural based solutions for resilient city, application of AI algorithms in land-use optimization regarding energy, CO2 reduction, circular buildings. She supervises PhDs and master students, works on EU funded projects in smart cities, and energy transition, and being involved in teaching of process modeling courses. She is a guest editor of journals and serves constantly as an ad hoc reviewer for many journals and conferences in planning, energy, environment management, and sustainable city and society.
It is people’s creativity in finding new ways of interacting with one another, with the built environment that makes the world interesting and challenging.
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND
Qi Han obtained her PhD in Urban Planning from TU/e, with a thesis named ‘Modeling Strategic Behavior in Anticipation of Congestion’. She also holds an MSc in Urban Planning and development from Tohuku University, Japan, and a BSc in architect from Tongji University, China. Between 1995 and 1998 she worked as an architect at ECEPDI (East China Electric Power Design Institute). Qi has been published in Journal of Cleaner Production, Journal of Environment Management, Sustainable Cities and Society, Energy Policy, Environment and Planning B, Journal of Urban Planning and Development, Land use policy, cities, International journal of project management, Ecological Indicator, Applied Geography, etc. She served as reviewers for international journals and conferences, and acts as co-promotors in PhD projects. She is also involved in the TU/e Data Science Center Eindhoven (DSC/e) Big Data Alliance and a formal member of the Eindhoven Institute for Renewable Energy Systems: EIRES.
