✅Data Science• Detected corrosion on bridges using drone pictures, photogrametry models and image analysis(including fine tunning/benchmarking of the machine learning algorithm)• Used signal processing technics to extract relevant information (most often related to material orsystem properties like COF, yield stress, maximum stress, ....)• Worked in the creation of a laboratory databases (metadatas, SQL database, and web development)• Collected and analyzed weather and corrosion data to build a corrosivity map of Norway• Used machine learning algorithms to predict strength of cement• Worked in cooperation with Bane Nor improving the wheel-rail contact through Python analysis• Experimented with key technologies such as DSPY, Autogluon, AutoGPT, segment anything, agenticworkflow, Midjourney, ...✅Instrumentation• Used LabView to develop various interfaces allowing control and measurement of motors, lasers,strain gauges, and various other sensors• Used DIC (Digital Image Correlation) to observe and understand deformations during mechanicaltesting• Reviewed and improved the code (LabView) of an ultra-high vacuum tribometer (Laboratory ofTribology LTDS)✅Modeling• Used molecular dynamics to get a better understanding of polymer friction (PhD)• Used Finite Element Analysis to improve/validate the results of tensile tests experiments• Designed several instrumented hydraulic cylinders for backhoe loaders as part of an industrialdesign project (MECALAC)• Used a High Performance Computer to run models in lammps to analyze the behaviour andmechanisms of polymer friction (Data analysis, Python, dasq, pandas, matplotlib, seaborn,mdanalysis, Ovito)✅Teamwork• Led a European project proposal focused on wave energy systems. Managed a consortium of twelveinstitutes and international companies, overseeing the coordination and presentation of the entireproject•Became the go-to 'Python guy' and data scientist in the department
