I am currently a post-doctoral fellow at  Center for Turbulence Research at Stanford University. My current activities concern the Large-Eddy Simulations of supersonic jet noise. My advisors at Stanford are  Parviz Moin  and  Sanjiva Lele.

In Nov. 2007, I defended my Ph.D. on Numerical simulations and modeling of the flow around multi-perforated plates at UM2 (University Montpellier II). I am now a Doctor in Applied Mathematics. This is my title, but my activity was above all concentrated on Fluid Mechanics. My PhD advisor was Franck Nicoud, Professor at UM2. 

My research activities were focused on perforated plates in the context of numerical simulations of flows in combustion chambers (see the Research page).

In 2004, I obtained a Master's degree in Engineering at ENSEEIHT (National Polytechnic Institute of Engineering in Electrotechnology, Electronics, Computer Science, Hydraulics and Telecommunications of Toulouse), with the specialty Hydraulics and Fluid Mechanics. The same year, I got my DEA degree (equivalent to Master of Science) in Fluid Dynamics at INPT (National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse).
