Summary
Ivan Stenius is an accomplished researcher-entrepreneur who blends deep academic expertise in lightweight structures, hydroelasticity and fluid–structure interaction with hands-on product development in marine electric propulsion and robotics. As an associate professor at KTH and PI of the Swedish Maritime Robotics Centre, he has led cross-disciplinary projects with industry partners like FMV and Saab and spun research into the commercial venture Zparq AB. He has a track record of building design and analysis software for naval applications and founding SIMARTECH to translate academic methods into practical tools. Known for connecting composites, control, and electric propulsion, he also cultivates Sweden’s largest academic investment in underwater robotics, demonstrating rare breadth from finite-element hydroelastic modeling to deployable maritime systems.
