Michel DevilleMichel Deville est né le 26 février 1945 à Charleroi (Belgique). Ingénieur civil électricien-mécanicien de l'Université Catholique de Louvain (1968), il y a présenté sa thèse de doctorat en sciences appliquées en 1974. Le sujet en était l'intégration numérique des équations de Navier-Stokes par la méthode des différences finies.
En 1974-1975, il séjourne en tant que boursier OTAN au Département de mathématiques du MIT chez le Prof. S.A. Orszag. A cette occasion, il se familiarise avec les méthodes spectrales pour le calcul des écoulements de fluides incompressibles. Ensuite, sa carrière académique se déroule à l'Université de Louvain: chargé de cours, professeur, professeur ordinaire.
Depuis 1979, il est collaborateur à la division d'aérodynamique de l'ONERA (Chatillon, France). Il est spécialiste des méthodes spectrales. Il applique les méthodes numériques à la simulation directe d'écoulement des fluides, à la modélisation de la turbulence et au calcul des fluides non-Newtoniens. Il est nommé professeur à l'EPFL le 1er septembre 1993, où il conduit les travaux liés à la mécanique des fluides numériques.Il prend sa retraite le 28 février 2010. Il est actuellement rédacteur en chef de la revue Computers and Fluids.

Dominique BonvinDominique Bonvin is Professor and Director of the Automatic Control Laboratory of EPFL. He received his Diploma in Chemical Engineering from ETH Zürich, and his Ph.D. degree from the University of California, Santa Barbara. He worked in the field of process control for the Sandoz Corporation in Basel and with the Systems Engineering Group of ETH Zürich. He joined the EPFL in 1989, where his current research interests include modeling, control and optimization of dynamic systems. He served as Director of the Automatic Control Laboratory for the periods 1993-97, 2003-2007 and again since 2012, Head of the Mechanical Engineering Department in 1995-97 and Dean of Bachelor and Master Studies at EPFL for the period 2004-2011.
Philippe WieserPhilippe Wieser obtained his diploma of engineer in mechanics at the EPFL in 1977 and he received his PhD in 1981.
After a few years working in a engineering consulting company, he joined the EPFL as lecturer. His fields of research and teaching deal with logistics, supply chain management, information systems and integrated logistics, health supply chain and project management.
