I am currently a researcher at NAVIER laboratory and Professor at Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées.

I am a member of the MATHERIALS project-team, at INRIA (I was a member of the MICMAC project-team).

I defended my habilitation thesis on October 17th, 2011 (abstract, manuscript ; see also here). Title : Mathematical and numerical study of some models in multiscale simulation of materials.

During the year 2004-2005, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications (IMA, part of the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis). I participated in the thematic year on Mathematics of Materials and Macromolecules : Multiple Scales, Disorder, and Singularities.

I defended my PhD thesis on August 31st, 2004 (abstract, ps.gz (862 Ko) or pdf (2.5 Mo) file. Title : Molecular and multiscale methods for the numerical simulation of materials.
Supervisors : Claude Le Bris (CERMICS) and Yvon Maday (Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions, University Paris 6).

My resume (pdf file).

Research themes :

  • Numerical methods for stochastic homogenization (variance reduction, weakly stochastic problems), numerical homogenization (MsFEM approach).
  • Methods and algorithms for molecular dynamics (effective dynamics, reduction of dimension, multiscale-in-time problems, parareal algorithms, highly oscillatory Hamiltonians, sampling).
  • Numerical analysis of micro-macro models for solids, coupling an atomistic model with a continuum mechanics model (variational problems, coarse-graining, finite temperature).

Collaborations with the Molecular and Multiscale Modelling team of the CERMICS.
