sandbox/popinet/README

    I am Stéphane Popinet, the creator of Gerris and Basilisk. Since 2013 I have been a ‘’directeur de recherche’’ at Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) based at Institut Jean le Rond d’Alembert (∂’Alembert) of Sorbonne Université, Paris, France. From 2001 to 2013 I was a research scientist at the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric research (NIWA) based in Wellington, New Zealand, which I joined after completing my PhD in 2000 at Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris, France. I am both a French and New Zealand citizen.

    My research interests reflect my double training and career in fluid mechanics and environmental sciences: multiphase flows, oceanic and atmospheric modelling, granular materials, waves, stratified flows, tsunamis etc.

    I am particularly interested in developing numerical methods for partial differential equations (PDEs), both as a tool to explore the physics of complex flows using numerical experiments, and as a way to understand the structure and properties of PDES: a kind of experimental mathematics.

    Having participated in oceanographic campaigns in the southern ocean (and also in Antarctica) (Smith et al, 2010) and having designed field experiments (Popinet et al, 2004) and instrumentation (Stevens et al, 2005) I also have a direct experience of experimental methods.

    For a list of publications see below. See also papers written by Popinet at Google Scholar and my HAL CV.
