I am a research scientist at CNRS working on computational and physical aspects of contact and friction at macro- and microscopic scales. I carry out theoretical research using boundary and finite element methods. In general, I am interested in many physical phenomena from the atomistic description up to a large scale structure of the Universe. I teach at Ecole des Mines de Paris (contact mechanics, computational contact mechanics, continuum mechanics and multi-physical aspects of mechanics of material).
