Pierre-thomas Brun

Biography

My research is concerned with developing predictive models that rationalize the physics at play in problems arising in natural settings and model laboratory experiments. Through the elucidation of a variety of nature’s mechanisms, my group aims to inspire and inform the design of new technologies. Iteration between observation, analog experiment and theoretical modeling is a critical feature of my research, which is interdisciplinary by nature at the cusp of fluid mechanics, flexible solids mechanics, non-linear physics, biology and design.
