Academic Achievements
  • Published multiple papers, such as 'Shock interactions, turbulence and the origin of the stellar mass spectrum' and 'A conservative adaptive wavelet method for the shallow-water equations on staggered grids'.
Research Experience
  • Served as a professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at McMaster University. Research areas include fluid turbulence, applications of wavelet transforms, and simulation of complex geometries.
Education
  • Previously affiliated with CMLA, École Normale Supérieure de Cachan (France), LMD, École Normale Supérieure (Paris, France), DAMTP, University of Cambridge (United Kingdom), and Physics, University of British Columbia (Canada).
Background
  • Research interests primarily focus on the theory and computation of fluid turbulence, with a special interest in numerical methods based on the wavelet transform. The goal is to combine several recent discoveries to develop a new approach to turbulence modeling.
