From Fault Dynamics to Seismic Hazard Assessment
… uncertainties, based on the study of active faults systems and dynamic modelling of the seismic cycle. I worked in particular on the probabilistic estimate of a fault‘s maximum magnitude earthquake and of its return period. Those parameters are indeed crucial to estimate seismic hazard. …

Estimated Distributed Near-Field Surface Displacements Using Nascent Mobile Laser Scanning
Modeling fault dynamics requires dense observations of surface displacements over time. However, it remains challenging to observe distributed fault displacements due to non-linear deformation. Observation of near-field displacements challenges the level of detection limits of modern geosensing …

A Computational Framework for Long-Term Atomistic Analysis of Solute Diffusion in Nanomaterials
Diffusive Molecular Dynamics (DMD) is a class of recently developed computational methods for the simulation of long-term mass transport with a full atomic fidelity. Its basic idea is to couple a discrete kinetic model for the evolution of mass transport process with a non-equilibrium …

Failure Modes Analysis and Protection Design of a 7-level 22 kV DC 13.8 kV AC 1.1 MW Flying Capacitor Converter Based on 10 kV SiC MOSFET
… aforementioned. The analysis examined the fault dynamics and evaluated the protections schemes at the converter level. The study identified a failure mechanism between cells, so called Cell Short- Circuit Fault (CSCF), capable of damaging the entire phase-leg. In response, a protection …
