I am currently in the final stages of my Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering at the University of Liège, where I delve into the unsteady aerodynamics of multi-wing systems. My research primarily aims to enhance the understanding of tandem flapping wings’ kinematics and refine numerical models for coaxial rotors. This work is pivotal in unraveling the physics of these intricate systems, paving the way for the development of medium-sized, bio-inspired UAVs. Furthermore, my studies on tandem wing configurations shed light on avian flight evolution, potentially aiding biologists in exploring the flight capabilities of ancient species such as the Microraptor.
Beyond my research, I contributed to the University’s academic community by teaching Aerospace Design, Aerospace Propulsion, and Flight Mechanics courses to Master’s students, sharing insights into the practical and theoretical aspects of our field.
My interests extend into computer science, where I am captivated by the progress in artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and distributed ledger technology. These areas represent the cutting edge of technology, and I’m enthusiastic about their potential to shape our future.
Outside of my academic and research activities, I like to contribute to open-source projects, thinker with my 3D printer to bring ideas to life, and fly custom-built drones for both fun and practical learning.
