Professor, computational engineering.
Philippe Helluy
Research subjects
I am interested in mathematical and numerical modeling for physics. My research is often related to industrial problems and to High Performance Computing (HPC).
I did my PhD in Toulouse on numerical methods for electromagnetism: boundary integral equations and Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods. When I moved to Toulon, I had the opportunity to work on computational fluid dynamics with applications to Navier-Stokes and multiphase flows. More recently I have done research on numerical methods for plasma physics: Magneto-Hydro-Dynamics (MHD) and Vlasov-Maxwell models.
Teaching subjects
Since my PhD I’ve taught in various fields of physics, mathematics and computer science to future engineers or mathematicians, at the Licence or Master levels. Like most of French university professors I usually teach about 200 hours a year. I benefited from a CNRS sabbatical in 2006 (100 hours of teaching instead of 200) and a Strasbourg University sabbatical in 2013 (100 hours of teaching instead of 200).
Here is a non-closed list of examples of given lectures:
- Mathematics: numerical analysis, mathematical analysis, linear algebra, probability, statistics, differential equations, Partial Differential Equations (PDE), harmonic analysis, optimization, functional analysis, optimal control, etc.
- Physics, engineering: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, operational research, stochastic processes, finite element and finite volume methods, etc.
- Computer science: graph theory, programming (C, C++, FORTRAN, Matlab, Python), parallel programming, GPU programming, etc.
