Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCyprien Soulaine is an Associate Scientist at CNRS and head of the Porous Media Research Group in Orléans, bringing over a decade of experience in multiscale modeling of fluid flow and transport in porous media. His work translates fundamental research into practical simulation tools—often implemented in OpenFOAM—for applications ranging from carbon capture and air separation to superfluid helium cooling and subsurface CO2 sequestration. Trained as a fluid mechanician with a PhD awarded the Léopold Escande prize, he blends pore-scale digital rock physics with continuum reactive-transport and multiphase models to bridge scales. Having held research positions at Stanford and industry roles with Air Liquide and BRGM, he pairs academic rigor with industrial problem-solving and open-source engineering. A less obvious strength is his cross-domain agility: he routinely adapts porous-media theory across chemical, nuclear and energy sectors, enabling transferable simulation frameworks.
