About us

PLS Fluid Dynamics is a team of seven engineers.

Pierre-Louis SCHMITT - Founder and Director

I graduated as an engineer from a joint master Arts&Métiers and Paris VI La Sorbonne, in Fluids Mechanics and Energy. From September 2007 to April 2011, I worked as a research assistant at the CMEFE laboratory in Geneva. During this period I participated in many applied research projects both experimental and numerical for private and public partners. Willing to go further more in research and to maintain a professional activity close to Fluid Mechanics, I foundated PLS Fluid Dynamics in 2011.

Pierre MUNIER - Mechanical Engineer

Graduate with a master's degree of Science in Engineering from the University of Applied Sciences of Western Switzerland, specialized in Fluid Mechanics and Energetics, I worked as research assistant at the CMEFE (Geneva, Switzerland), from 2009 to 2014. Specialised in aero/hydrodynamics measurements as a result of multiple collaborations within experimental projects, I worked six months in the helicopter division of D.L.R. in Göttingen (Germany) where I provided a quality service in order to develop optical measurements technics in wind tunnel. I have joined P.L.S. Fluid Dynamics in September 2014.

Alexandre BENEDETTI - CFD Engineer

Graduate with a master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from INSA Lyon in 2011, I worked two years as a process engineer in the aeronatuics industry. I decided to deepen my understanding of Fluid Mechanics by obtaining a master's degree in Fluid Mechanics from Paris VI La Sorbonne. After my last internship spent on studying snowguns jets, I joined P.L.S. Fluid Dynamics in April 2015.

Paul GUÉRILLOT - CFD Engineer

Graduate engineer of ENSEIRB-MATMECA, department Mathematics and Mechanics, speciality Fluid and Energetics in 2020. I worked during my internships on the design of high performance sailing crafts. I joined P.L.S. Fluid Dynamics in April 2021.

Clément LEMOIGNE - CFD Engineer

Graduate engineer of ENSEIRB-MATMECA, department Mathematics and Mechanics, speciality Fluid and Energetics in 2021, I joined P.L.S. Fluid Dynamics in August 2021 as a CFD engineer, following my final year internship.

Quentin CLEMENT - Mechanical Engineer

Graduate of the Arts & Métiers french engineering school with a speciality in Fluid Mechanics and Rotating Machines, I worked as a designer of test benches and prototypes in the field of piezoelectricity then I joined PLS Fluid Dynamics in October 2021 for the development of test benches feeding the CFD models and prototypes.

Rémi BONIN - CFD Engineer

After graduating from Arts & Métiers ParisTech and Polytechnique Montréal (M. Sc. A in Mechanical Engineering), I joined PLS Fluid Dynamics as an intern and then as a fully-fledged engineer in October 2021.
