The ephemeral beauty of turbulent flows: This figure shows the temperature dissipation rate, in false colors (light tones intense dark are small), from a snapshot of a bidimensional Rayleigh-Benard convective system at Ra=10^9 and Pr=1. The spatial resolution is 2048 x 4096 discretization points.

Fête de la science 2018
Also this year we will try to popularize the best we can, the chosen theme is “Galileo mistake on the origin of tides” see our poster in french [poster]. Looking forward to meet all interested people @Gare Saint Sauveur next weekend!
Summer school
When the floor is too hot…

Summer school on the beach
I co-organize a summer school with my colleagues Francois G. Schmitt and Stefano Berti. More infos @ http://active-turbulence.univ-lille.fr
Rome
I have visited Daniela Mansutti and Andrea Scagliarini at Istituto per le Applicazioni del Calcolo “Mauro Picone”
