Georges FOKOUA is a Lecturer-Researcher at ESTACA (École Supérieure des Techniques Aéronautiques et de Construction Automobile), Paris-Saclay Campus, Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, France. He serves as the Training Manager for the 5A Specialty in New Energies and Environment. His academic career spans multiple institutions, including IRSTEA Rennes as a Research Engineer (2014-2016) and the Naval School in Brest as a Teaching and Research Assistant (2009-2014). Dr. FOKOUA's research focuses on experimental and numerical fluid mechanics with particular interest in multiphase flows, turbulence, wake flows, and the characterization of spatio-temporal dynamics of particulate and gaseous pollutants. His work bridges fundamental fluid mechanics with practical applications in transportation systems, naval propulsion, and environmental engineering. He has developed expertise in advanced measurement techniques including PIV, LDV, Ombroscopy, hot wire, optical probes, PTV, and both mono- and biphasic CFD using Ansys-Fluent, Comsol Multiphysics, and Matlab. His publication record demonstrates strong expertise in particle dispersion in transportation systems, with recent work focusing on brake particle dispersion in underground train stations, vehicle wake flows, and ultrafine particle dispersion. His earlier work investigated bubble effects in Taylor-Couette flow for naval propulsion applications. His research consistently combines experimental work with numerical modeling to address complex fluid dynamics problems. Dr. FOKOUA actively supervises doctoral and master's students, with current PhD candidates working on topics related to air quality in vehicle cabins, particulate pollutant dispersion in vehicle wakes, and navigation emissions. He has also contributed significantly to major research projects including CEPARER (2022-2025), AmCoAir (2020-2023), and CAPNAV (2019-2022), all funded by ADEME with various industrial partners. As an educator, he teaches Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Thermal Engineering, and Energy Conversion and Transfer courses across all undergraduate and graduate levels at ESTACA. He has also led the Euroglider project (2016-2019), developing a two-seat electric propulsion glider for pilot training.
