2 Laboratory and Research Topic

MOdelisation and Simulation of Turbulence (MOST)[1] is one of the 9 research teams of the Laboratoire des Ecoulements Géophysiques et Industriels (L.E.G.I.) [2] in Grenoble (France).

My Ph'D theses is about modelling turbulent unsteady swirling flow in draft tube (hydraulic machinery).

More information about my topic can be found there http://www2.ademe.fr/jsp/theses/these.jsp?num=1227&catid=15933 .... but in frensh :-)
