Séminaire PMMH – Daegyoum Kim (KAIST)
Fluid-dynamic barrier for porosity-based propulsion and transport
In this talk, I present novel mechanisms of propulsion and passive transport in the flow regime where both inertial and viscous effects are important. In this flow regime, the porosity of the body can play a critical role for efficient motion. Such examples include microscopic insects whose wings are composed of many bristles with significant gaps between them. Despite the porous configurations, they fly successfully by forming virtual fluid-dynamic barriers inside the gaps, which are induced by strong viscous diffusion.
Using simplified two-dimensional cylinder-array models that represent the porous configurations, I explain how the development of the fluid-dynamic barrier determines the performance of propulsion and passive transport. First, for the array of multiple cylinders in a line, optimal arrangements are derived for uniform and unsteady free streams. Then, the reconfiguration of a poroelastic cluster and the coordinated active motion of multiple entities are examined. Lastly, I discuss future research directions for potential applications to powerless small-scale transporters.

REPROGRAMMABLE HARDWARE FOR DATA PROCESSING AT THE EDGE : A NEW COMPUTING PARADIGM BASED ON NEUROMORPHIC SYSTEMS
The brain's ability to perform efficient and fault-tolerant data processing is strongly related with its peculiar interconnected adaptive architecture, based on redundant neural circuits interacting at different scales. By emulating the brain's processing and learning mechanisms, computing technologies strive to (…) -

Energy Transition and Earth System Dynamics : Quantifying Long-Term Sustainability Trajectories for Human Societies
This talk explores how current industrial technologies - linear, extractive, and ecologically disruptive - must be replaced by systems designed in harmony with the Earth's living metabolism. Framing the planet as a dynamic, interdependent system rather than a passive resource pool leads to a fundamental rethinking (…) -

Metainterfaces : how to design a rough contact that obeys a specific friction law ?
Many devices, including touchscreens and robotic hands, involve frictional contacts. Optimizing those devices requires fine control of the interface's friction law. We lack systematic methods to create dry contact interfaces whose frictional behaviour satisfies preset specifications. In this seminar, I will present (…)
The audience is composed of people with rather heterogeneous backgrounds including specialists in solids, fluids, granular flows, statistical physics... so the idea is to keep your talk understandable by people not necessarily working in your field... The seminar time slot runs from 11am to noon so the best is to make the talk last around 45 minutes to leave some time for discussion.
