Simulation & Optimization of Thermo-Mechanical Systems
I design, simulate, and optimize thermo-mechanical systems ranging from racecar aerodynamics to combustion within a hybrid propulsion rocket engines. My skills in CAD, CFD/FEA, Data analysis and Manufacturing Processes allow me to tackle autonomously a wide variety of engineering problems.
Every research data and public reports are free to access.
About Me
I’m a mechanical/aerospace engineer specializing in optimization of thermo-mechanical systems. I enjoy turning complex problems into clean experiments, clear visuals, and decisive engineering actions.
-
My toolkit spans CFD (RANS, LES), instrumentation, data analysis, and performance optimization. Correlation is the corner stone of all my work, whether it's wind-tunnel, on-track testing or carefully crafted methodologies.
-
My main interests and objective are tied to motorsports for their competitive spirit, high-pressure environment and high level of attention to detail. I'm looking for challenge, precision and high-pace in my career. Being part of a team and pushing it to success is my passion. I'm also very interested in aerospace engineering, particularly rocket propulsion along more classical aerodynamics work.
-
I strongly believe in AI-for-CFD applications, and am currently training and challenging myself by designing AI surrogates (mainly with Python) to improve CFD efficiency.

Recent Projects of Interest
Work In Progress
Few projects I'm currently working on, whether they're personal or professional, that aren't yet released, published or public.
You're on it. Nothing much more than updates and regular maintenance.
Based on homemade vehicle dynamics model. Goal is laptime optimization of aerodynamics.
The goal is to build an AI model that will refine coarse meshes where mathematically needed.
Optimization of several components of an hybrid-rocket engine (nozzle, injector, fuel).
