Research
My researches involve fluid mechanics and more precisely:
- theoretical stability analysis
- direct numerical simulations of two-phase flows
In particular, during my PhD thesis, I was interested in numerical simulation of compressible two-phase flows with evaporation in ARCHER code.
Currently, during my postdoc, I study the stability of a Newtonian ferrofluid jet under a magnetic field.
Postdoctoral research
A stability analysis of a ferrofluid jet under a magnetic field of general shape is realised. Several effects are considered :
- ferrofluid viscosity
- magnetic field sources
- surrounding fluid
- non-linearities

Doctoral research
During my PhD thesis in the numerical simulation field, my researches mainly focused on atomization process. They were divided into three points:
- Development of a method to simulate compressible flows with evaporation in ARCHER code
- Study of atomization with the help of interface curvatures
- Develoment of a criterion based on curvature to estimate the interface resolution during a simulation
