I was awarded my PhD in Structures and Materials Mechanics from Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées (France). My thesis focused on the nonlinear  dynamics of cracked turbines rotors (please see attached abstract) and was done at the Mechanical Solids Laboratory of Ecole Polytechnique. The Thesis (in french) could be downloaded at http://pastel.paristech.org/1793/.

I am particularly interested in research on computational mechanics, nonlinear dynamics and structural analysis. I will also be very interested in improving my knowledge in other domains like accoustics, fluid mechanics or aerodynamics modelling which have numerous industrial applications. While my thesis work was theoretical and involved numerical simulations and the development of analytical models to explore the vibratory response of structures such as the cracked rotors, it is also of great interest to industry. Indeed my doctoral research was funded by the Department of Mechanical Analysis and Acoustics of the Research and Development Division of Electricite De France (EDF R&D).

I am currently a post doctoral at Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble, France.
