“I am an applied mathematician researcher highly
competent in computer sciences, working at the service of various
scientific domains: geosciences a few years ago, quantum chemistry
and structural mechanics in recent years, along with fluid mechanics
and currently medical robotics. The scientists I work with provide
me the relevant information for understanding their problems,
and reciprocally, that allows me to propose useful applications
for the general numerical tools I develop, including numerical
optimization, parameter and behavioural law identification, shape
design, and actions under optimal conditions. What I appreciate
about my interdisciplinary work, mostly conducted on a collaborative
basis, is to see my collaborators' eyes light up when I provide
them with a solution. That’s what I enjoy the most!
It
accompanies me everywhere and follows me continuously from
home to workplace, because the researchers' time is special.
As a researcher, when I wish to search, when I have time for
research, when I get an idea... I open my computer, wherever
I am!
For large numerical simulations and time-consuming computations,
I have access to a supercomputer. Several laboratories and institutions
share this facility at the scientific computing community level.
Using this supercomputer, I may run simulations of high complexity,
whether with parallel computing or not, to solve very large numerical
problems in fluid mechanics or structural mechanics, for instance.
This allows me to approximate to an understanding of real life
phenomena.” |
