KADDECHE Slim

Professor at the National Institute of Applied Sciences and Technology (University of Carthage, Tunisia), Slim Kaddeche holds a PhD in engineering from École Centrale de Lyon. His thesis focused on crystallisation through controlled solidification and the use of magnetic fields to improve the structure of silicon ingots, in line with the requirements of the photovoltaic and microelectronics industries. He has also conducted research on the stability and non-intrusive control of thermoconvective flows with the aim of optimising industrial processes such as silicon purification and the cooling of electronic components. His research has also led him to take an interest in the generation of flows induced by surface acoustic waves, as well as the study of the stability of mixed convection flows for non-Newtonian fluids.
