Alfio Quarteroni
Of italian nationality, Alfio Quarteroni was born on May 30th 1952. He pursued his studies in mathematics at University of Pavia and at University of Paris VI. In 1986 he was nominated full professor at Catholic University of Brescia, later professor in mathematics at University of Minnesota at Minneapolis and professor in numerical analysis at Politecnico di Milano. He is designated full professor in 1997 and enters into service with EPFL in 1998. At EPFL, he teaches numerical analysis to engineers and mathematicians and holds specialized courses about mathematical modelling and scientific computing for master and PhD students. He had been scientific director of CRS4, plenary speaker of more than two hundred international conferences; he is member of the European Academy of Sciences, the Italian Academy of Sciences, the Lombard Academy of Science and Letters. He is Editor in Chief of two book series (MS&A and Unitext) by Springer, associate editor of 25 international journals. He has been plenary speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians ICM2006. He had been responsible of several European research networks. His team has carried out the aerodynamic and hydrodynamic simulations for the optimization of Alinghi, the Swiss sailing yacht that has won two editions of the America's Cup in 2003 and 2007.
Michel Deville
Michel 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.
Devis Tuia
I come from Ticino and studied in Lausanne, between UNIL and EPFL. After my PhD at UNIL in remote sensing, I was postdoc in Valencia (Spain), Boulder (CO) and EPFL, working on model adaptation and prior knowledge integration in machine learning. In 2014 I became Research Assistant Professor at University of Zurich, where I started the 'multimodal remote sensing' group. In 2017, I joined Wageningen University (NL), where I was professor of the GeoInformation Science and Remote Sensing Laboratory. Since 2020, I joined EPFL Valais, to start the ECEO lab, working at the interface between Earth observation, machine learning and environmental sciences.
