Curriculum vitae

GOURDAIN Nicolas — 2016-01-04T16:03:48Z

After a Master degree obtained at Ecole Centrale de Lyon in 2002, I started to work at the Applied Aerodynamics Dpt. of ONERA, from 2002 to 2005. I defended my PhD in Nov. 2005 at Ecole Centrale de Lyon.

In 2006, I moved to CERFACS (Toulouse, France) for 8 years, in the Computational Fluid Dynamics team, first as a post doc' fellow and then as a senior researcher. During these successive positions, I developped a background in CFD methods applied to Turbomachinery flows. I also had the opportunity to develop a parnteship with European industries (Airbus and SAFRAN) and others research centers (LMFA, VKI).

Since 2013, I worked at ISAE-Supaero, as a Professor in Fluid Dynamics. An overview of my CV can be downloaded here :
