Mikhael Gorokhovski

Professor of fluid mechanics (CNU 60)MFAE/LMFA

PhD (1981) in physics and mathematics, Mikhael Gorokhovski was a Research Scientist at the State University of Kazakhstan during ten years. Since 1991, he works in France at Rouen University, where he obtained full professor position in 1995, and then, since 2006, at the Ecole Centrale in Lyon, where he is professor of fluid mechanics. He is also coordinator of open teaching courses for third years students. His research at LMFA concerns mainly physics behind turbulent interactions in multiphase flows. At the same time, he is coordinator of the Henri Bénard Pilot Center in ERCOFTAC (European Research Community on Flow, Turbulence and Combustion), a member of expert committee of the Russian Science Foundation, a member of the Editorial Board of Atomization and Sprays Journal and a guest-member of the Editorial Board of Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics. He is also a former Senior Fellow of Stanford University.
