Her experience includes containerships, bulkcarriers , passenger ships and tankers. Previous cases include intact and damage strength and stability after grounding, collision or loss of stability.

Very well versed in a wide range of class rules for hull structures for longitudinal strength, fatigue and buckling as well as statutory rules for stability. Her experience includes hand calculations for strength and stability, as well as finite element modelling with ANSYS.

Christina creates ship and isolated structures’ models in 3D using Rhino software for collision analysis or other depiction purposes. She also creates navigational plots on charts for relevant cases.
