Particle Scientist
GranuTools
Dr. Aurelien research activities mainly focus on the understanding of granular materials at different scales. During his PhD he has developed discrete numerical models to describe fragmentation mechanics of cohesive granular materials by taking into account micro-properties of the grains. He then moved to a larger scale to study gravity-driven rapid flows as well as aeolian transport of granular materials, with huge implications on natural disasters. He is presently working as a particle scientist at Granutools company, and doing his research on powder properties characterization.
