Aurélien Citrain is a researcher at Inria's MAGIQUE-3D project team, focusing on computational methods for wave propagation. He completed his PhD in Applied Mathematics at INSA Rouen (2016–2019), where he studied the coupling of Discontinuous Galerkin (DGM) and Spectral Element Methods (SEM) for elasto-acoustic wave problems. His work emphasizes hybrid mesh discretizations to optimize simulations in complex geometries. Affiliation: Inria (MAGIQUE-3D team), part of the Depth Imaging Partnership (DIP) with TOTAL Education: PhD in Applied Mathematics (INSA Rouen, 2019), Engineering Master (INSA Rouen), Research Master in Fundamental/Applied Mathematics (University of Rouen) Research Interests: Development of high-order numerical methods for seismic wave simulation, including coupling DGM/SEM on hybrid meshes, parallel computing with OpenMP, and software implementation for geophysical applications. His work addresses challenges in anisotropic media, attenuation modeling, and DAS (Distributed Acoustic Sensing) acquisition systems. Publications: Active contributor to conferences like MATHIAS, WAVES, and computational mechanics symposiums, with a focus on DG-SE coupling for elasto-acoustic systems and seismic monitoring innovations.
