I am currently an Associate Professor at the LAMPS laboratory, University of Perpignan Via Domitia, France. My research focuses on turbulence modelling. With expertise in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), my background includes extensive work on turbulent flows for low-carbon energy systems. I previously served postdoctoral researcher at the Inria Institute of Bordeaux under the supervision of Rémi Manceau and studying self-adaptive approaches for hybrid RANS/LES. I was also a temporary teaching and research assistant at the PROMES laboratory (University of Perpignan Via Domitia), where I investigated and developed turbulence models for Large Eddy Simulation (LES), specifically targeting highly anisothermal flows found in solar receivers. My Ph.D., supervised by Prof. Françoise Bataille and Assoc. Prof. Adrien Toutant, was dedicated to the simulation and modeling of flows in gas-pressurized solar receivers, employing a multi-fidelity approach.
I am eager to dedicate my future work to the challenge of certified CFD, namely user-independent CFD with quantified uncertainties that is suitable to replace experimental tests in certification processes. I am particularly interested in deepening the self-adaptive approaches, investigating uncertainty quantification in CFD, and performing multi-fidelity CFD-based optimization. In addition, I am willing to explore the capabilities of machine learning to complement traditional turbulence modeling with physics-informed approaches and I am eager to investigate multiphase flows and fluid-structure interactions.
