I am a postdoctoral researcher at IFSTTAR Nantes.
Research interests / field of activity
My activities are mainly related to non-destructive testing and non-destructive evaluation (thermal characterization of heterogeneous materials) for civil engineering.
- Non-destructive testing and non-destructive evaluation
- Infrared and thermal solutions for Infrared cameras
- In-plane thermal diffusivity measurements
- Inverse problems
- Optics and laser technology
- Image processing and computer vision
Short bio
I graduated with an engineering degree from Telecom Saint-Etienne and a master of research in optic, image and computer vision from Jean Monnet University in 2013. In 2017, I received the PhD degree (title of my thesis: “Thermal characterization of heterogeneous material by flying spot laser and infrared thermography”) in mechanical engineering from Bordeaux University under the supervision of Christophe Pradère. In 2017, I joined IFSTTAR (Nantes) for ANR Project (RESBATI).
Recent projects
- ANR RESBATI: This is an applied research project whose objective is to develop a field measurement
device that meets precise specifications to systematically measure the level of thermal insulation
of building walls. The preferred metrological tool is infrared thermography. - REPTILES
