Biographie
After obtaining his diploma in mechanical engineering from EPFL in 1999 he co-founded a start-up company dedicated to the design of gas bearing supported rotors. In 2005 he joined Fischer Engineering Solutions where he led the development of small-scale, gas bearing supported high-speed turbomachinery for fuel cell air supplies and for domestic scale heat pumps. In parallel he worked on his PhD, which he obtained from EPFL in 2008 and for which he was awarded the SwissElectric Research Award. He then joined the Gas Turbine Lab at MIT as a postdoctoral associate where he worked on foil bearings and on the experimental investigation of radial diffusers. In 2013 he was nominated assistant professor and in 2020 associated professor with tenure at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, where he leads the Laboratory for Applied Mechanical Design. His current research interest are in gas lubricated bearings, in aerodynamics of small-scale turbomachinery and in automated design and optimization methodologies.Publications

Dynamique des systèmes mécaniques
Ce cours poursuit la compréhension des effets cinématiques et dynamiques de systèmes mécaniques complexes et introduit les bases pour les comprendre et les modéliser. L'étudiant saura expliquer et modéliser la dynamique et choisir des modèles adéquats.
Applied mechanical design
Les étudiants sont exposés à un projet de conception mécanique. Ils vont apprendre à connaître des méthodologies pour (1) attaquer des problèmes à formulation ouverte, (2) cultivar la créativité, (3) supporter la prise de décisions et (4) développer des compétences à résoudre des problèmes.
Heat pump systems
Ce cours vise à étudier les cycles et les technologies de pompes à chaleur, ainsi que les équipements, tels que les compresseurs (volumétriques et dynamiques), les échangeurs de chaleur et les vannes d'expansion.
