Summary
Martin Alexandersson is an Industrial PhD student and naval architect with 11 years of hands-on experience applying software and data analytics to advance ship manoeuvring, seakeeping and propulsion design. Based in Gothenburg, he combines academic research at Chalmers with applied R&D at SSPA, bridging model tests, simulations and propeller hydrodynamics to deliver practical vessel performance improvements. His background includes propeller design work at Rolls‑Royce Marine and project leadership of maritime dynamics lab simulations, giving him deep domain expertise and an engineer’s instinct for decisions that affect real-world performance. Equally comfortable with code and sea trials, he leverages computer science training to turn complex experimental data into actionable models and tools. As an employee representative and club chair, he also brings organizational leadership and stakeholder negotiation to technical programs. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic, simulation-driven solutions that move naval architecture toward a data-first future.
