Plenary lectures2 plenary lectures are scheduled during the workshop: one will be given by Professor Christophe Geuzaine of the University of Liège, and the other one is still under discussion... Lecture #1: LiFE-HTS: Liège university Finite Element models for High-Temperature Superconductors
Christophe Geuzaine received his PhD degree in 2001 from the Faculty of Applied Sciences at the University of Liège in Belgium. After post-doctoral positions at the California Institute of Technology and with the Belgian National Science Foundation, he became an assistant professor of Mathematics at Case Western Reserve University in 2005. In 2007 he came back to the University of Liège, where he is now full professor in the department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. He is the founder and head of the Applied and Computational Electromagnetics research group within the Montefiore Institute. Prof. Geuzaine's research encompasses modeling, analysis, algorithm development, and simulation for problems arising in various areas of engineering and science, with current applications in electromagnetic, biomedical and geophysical problems. He has authored numerous papers in the fields of scientific computing and is the co-creator of the popular open source mesh generator Gmsh and the multi-physics finite element solver GetDP. Lecture #2: An overview of Safran contribution to a decarbonized aviation
Thierry LEBEY received his M.Sc. degree in Solid State Physics in 1984 and in Microelectronics in 1985, his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering in 1989. A CNRS Research Scientist during 30 years, his fields of interest concern the characterization, the modelling and the ageing of solid dielectrics and insulating materials used in electrical engineering applications. From 2016-2019, he was the Director of LAPLACE, the French largest Electrical Engineering Laboratory located in Toulouse (160 permanent staff, 150 PhD students, 30 Post-Docs, 30 Master course students). Then, he joined Safran Tech, the Corporate Research Centre of Safran, one of the first world aerospace company, to develop research works in high voltage engineering for aviation applications. |
