Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSam Dehaeck is a Senior Research Engineer with 14 years of experience specializing in optical diagnostics for fluid dynamics and machine vision, currently leading experimental optics work at Flanders Make. He combines deep expertise in PIV, LDV, ILIDS, Schlieren and interferometry with practical metrology for micro-bubble and droplet sizing, plus temperature and density measurements. Sam pairs hands-on optics and (macro)photography know-how with software skills in C#, Java and Python, having developed numerous GUI tools and image-processing algorithms for calibration, ellipse detection and interference analysis. His background includes establishing full optical labs and novel measurement techniques during long research tenures at Université Libre de Bruxelles and the von Karman Institute, where his PhD work produced multiple new optical methods. Colleagues rely on him for bridging complex experimental setups and robust data-analysis pipelines, and he brings the uncommon combination of ray-tracing theory and pragmatic lab engineering to challenging fluid-mechanics problems.
