He works within the National Centre of Maritime Engineering and Hydrodynamics at the Australian Maritime College. He works closely with the Maritime Engineers focusing on Maritime Education and alternative energies.
Biography
Chris commenced his academic career as a lecturer at RMIT University whilst undertaking his doctoral studies in Mathematics. The PhD research was titled 'Numerical Simulation of Towed Cable-Body Systems'. Chris' expertise and interest in this field has resulted in his development of a complete model of a towed cable-body system comprising of an aircraft, a cable and a towed target or decoy.
Aircraft have been towing bodies which include instruments, antennas, gliders, targets, decoys since almost the beginning of powered flight. The practice of towing targets and decoys has rapidly grown in the last few decades.
Chris has authored more than 30 peer-reviewed publications and been granted just under $1 million in research funding.
Chris has won numerous institutional and national teaching awards as a result of positive student feedback about his strong commitment and dedication to teaching.

Research Themes
Chris's research currently encompasses two broad areas, the first being on Maritime Education. He is passionate about teaching and believes that every student is capable of achieving success. Chris uses a variety of teaching and assessment methods with his students and aims to develop activities which relate theory to real world applications of maritime engineering.
This research has resulted in two successful external grant applications. The first one is the Australian Research Council grant 'Calculus for Kids' project which provides Year 6 primary school students with an innovative and exciting way to learn Mathematics through real-world engineering problems using specialist computer software with interactive learning materials.
The second one was the Ian Potter Foundation grant 'Science-ercise: modern physics in primary classrooms of North-West Tasmania'. This project aims to demonstrate how higher level physics theories and modern physics applications can be taught to primary school students in a way that they can understand, through the use of specialist computer software to solve real-world problems.
His second area of research is investigating the potential use of alternative energies in the maritime offshore sector in order to address the depletion of fossil fuels.
Collaboration
Chris is currently involved in an ARC project 'Calculus for Kids' with Australian Scientific & Engineering Solutions (ASES).

Code of Practice for Aquaculture Vessels (2022 - 2024)$228,657
- Description
- There is an identified need to develop a Code of Practice (COP) specific to offshore aquaculture vessels for use in the growing blue economy sector. This project will conduct a comprehensive review of existing National Standard for Commercial Vessels (NSCV) and the guidelines of classification societies to develop a new set of Deemed to Satisfy rules and regulations for offshore aquaculture vessels. The final COP will be a reference document for Australian operations, to be submitted to the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) for possible adoption.

Aquaculture Vessel Requirement scoping study (2020)$49,351
- Description
- The Purpose of this scoping study is to understand the likely requirements of the service vessels needed to efficiently and sustainably operate and maintain offshore aquaculture farms in the future. Developing an understanding of the likely environmental, operational and technical constraints will enable an assessment of current vessel types and technologies to be conducted and the development of a typical vessel specification and concept design. A comprehensive review of the existing Australian and international maritime classification standards and Human Centred Design guidelines from the design, building, construction, and survey perspectives of the aquaculture support vessels will be carried out under this study.

Bioelectricity Generation from Dairy Wastewater (2016)$39,740
- Description
- The main objective of this study is to develop a novel low-cost fuel cell for simultaneous contaminants removal and electricity generation from dairy wastewater. The dairy industry including dairy firms and dairy processing plants is Australia's fourth largest rural industry. In 2014-2015, Tasmanian milk production reached a record 886 million litres, a 10.1% increase over the previous year. That is a rise of 286ML in 10 years. The dairy wastewater which includes dung, urine, milk residue, and detergents is collected at one point near the farm and requires effective management to prevent environment pollution. The wastewater should be managed in a manner that does not pollute surface or ground waters or create undue odour. Constructed Wetlands (CW) are known as one the best management practice to treat dairy wastewaters. A plant based flooded systems such as constructed wetlands commonly used in dairy industry have different aerobic and anaerobic zones throughout their bed depth and water column (Yadav et al., 2012). Therefore this similarity can be utilised for the development of a novel plant based MFC. In the combined novel MFC-CW system, the electrochemical active microbes (bacteria) act as biocatalysts. The bacteria uses the anode electrode as the preferred final electrode acceptor because the deference in free energy is larger than other available electron acceptors. In this way, the electrical current is generated simultaneously with contaminants removal from wastewater.

Investigation into the Response Based Analysis of Risers of Floating Systems (2015 - 2017)$47,803
- Description
- The research will be performed in collaboration with industry, in particular Intecsea, an offshore oil and gas company specializing in innovative front end engineering design in fields of metocean analysis and floating systems, riser and mooring systems and subsea engineering. The currently published research within the RBA filed is very limited and the work proposed will contribute to fields of interest to the offshore industry. Development of the probabilistic analysis methods for the complete floating system, including its dynamic risers, is important for the offshore industry, especially for fields in deep water and with harsh environment. Establishing consistent probabilistic methods for the analysis of the hull, moorings and the risers will enable the design process to be streamlined and will contribute to improved safety and efficiency of the floating production systems.

- Description
- The aim of this project is integrating numerical, empirical and experimental results of the hydrodynamic forces generated by Ro-Ro thrusters affecting the stabilization of Articulating Concrete Blocks (ACB) revetments in terms of lift and drag. This project was divided into two stages: the physical experiments and the numerical experiments. The design of the Ro-Ro thrusters acting on the Ro-Ro ramp in a 1:10 scale wiII be created. A propeller, to stimulate the thruster of an ordinary Ro-Ro ship with diameter of 1.80m in full scale will be developed. The scaled model of ACBs revetment mattress type 3 will be placed on top of the designed beach ramp structure with two different slopes. The propeller wash running in shallow water will generate current and waves that will attack the beach revetment at different speeds. The velocity of the fluid will be verified using a Pilot tube at different points after the propeller hydrodynamic forces and moments acting on the revetment mattress will be measured using 6 degree of freedom load cells. An analysis of these forces and moments acting on the revetment mattress will be conducted however, the environmental loads (current and waves) and the hull effects will not be included in the model as this study is based on a stationary Ro-Ro ship and the forces generated by the hull and environment will be neglected. The empirical method of Pilarczyk and PIANC will be also used to calculate the stability of the flow and the revetment mattress. A comparison of physical experiments, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) results and empirical method will be performed. The outcomes of this project are: verification of the performance and stability levels (scour forces: lift and drag forces and movements) of a scaled A CBs revetment.

Calculus in the real world: transforming the way we teach Mathematics in primary education (2013 - 2015)$150,000
- Description
- This project will demonstrate a transformation in the way mathematics is taught to primary school students, enabling them to solve real-world problems using calculus. Building on an award-winning pilot project in which primary students used professional engineering software to master university-level calculus, the project will provide hundreds of young people access to this and more advanced topics. Teachers will be trained to use multi-media learning materials designed at the University of Tasmania in conjunction with an inter-disciplinary team involving the Australian Maritime College. The project will promote a love of learning mathematics to encourage enrolment in tertiary subjects such as Science and Engineering, which have been in decline.

Investigating the transformative role of Echo360 on learning and teaching (2013)$24,790
- Description
- This project investigates the transformative role of Echo360 on learning and teaching through: a) examining the impacts of the technology on student learning behaviours including learning approaches, class attendance, and the use of Echo360 generated-materials; b) investigating the relationship between class attendance, the use of Echo360-generated materials, and student performance; and c) evaluating the impacts of Echo360 on teaching efficiency and identifying effective practices in using the technology to enhance flexible and online/distance delivery. Participants of the project not only include lecturers of different disciplines, but also an education developer and a learning service coordinator. Given the wide use of Echo360 in Australian universities and limited research on the impacts of the technology on learning and teaching, there is a great opportunity for the project to be extended.
