About me


I am a PhD student in applied mathematics for the numerical simulation of physic problems under the direction of Alexandre Ern at CERMICS, École des Ponts ParisTech and Inria. I am also co-supervised by Laurent Guillot at CEA.

As a computational scientist I have a strong background in numerical methods with skills in numerical analysis for partial differential equations (PDEs) and strong programming skills (Fortran/C++/Python/Matlab) and physics (fluid and solid mechanics, geophysics or biology). I am also interested in the optimization and the portability of the numerical methods on high performance computing architectures (HPC).

More specifically, my research is focused on the use of non conforming hybrid high-order finite element methods (HDG/HHO) especially in the context of unfitted methods (also known as embedded or immersed methods). These latter allow the boundary or physical interfaces to cut arbitrarily through the mesh cells. By coupling them with HDG/HHO methods, the idea is to achieve a high-order approximation of our problem while greatly simplifying the mesh generation. In this framework, I am currently working on the numerical simulation of the propagation of elasto-acoustic waves (coupling between the seismic field and atmospheric acoustics or the water), using the methods mentioned above.
