LEROY Annie

Maître de conférences – HDR en mécanique des fluides et aérodynamique, à l’école de l’air et de l’espace et au CREA depuis le 1er Septembre 2019, en situation de détachement de l’université d’Orléans.

Doctorat en mécanique des fluides, et Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches en sciences pour l’ingénieur obtenus à l’Université d’Orléans.

Ses activités de recherche portent sur l’analyse, la compréhension physique et le contrôle des écoulements pour l’aérodynamique instationnaire appliquée à l’aéronautique, l’automobile et l’éolien. Elles relèvent de problématiques posées par l’industrie visant à prédire et améliorer les performances de systèmes aérodynamiques, comme par exemple diminuer la consommation et/ou augmenter la manœuvrabilité des véhicules terrestres ou aériens, accroître la durée de vie des structures en limitant les fluctuations de charges aérodynamiques. Les approches multidisciplinaires développées et mises en œuvre sont numériques et expérimentales en soufflerie subsonique.

Domaines applicatifs : sillages automobile, aérodynamique rotors (hélicoptère et éolien), aérodynamique et aéroélasticité des ailes/pales flexibles et de grand allongement (éolien, aéronefs, drones solaires HALE).
