Using a Finite-Element based solver for the Navier-Stokes equations, we study the stability of the boundary layer lying at the bottom of the ocean in 2D. Our simulations show that a water waves of finite amplitude can trigger separation of vorticity in a singular manner: this phenomenon does not vanish with the viscosity.

I am a post-doctoral student in Applied Mathematics, currently based at the Fields Institute in Toronto, where I have been awarded a Fields Post-Doctoral Fellowship. Before that, I was an invited post-doctoral researcher at the DAMTP in Cambridge. I denfended my Ph.D. at École Normale Supérieure - PSL in September 2025. My research focuses on the mathematical theory of (possibly breaking) water waves, boundary layers and numerical analysis.
