Biography
Prof. Samuel GOMES is the Head of COMM research Department at ICB laboratory (ICB UMR 6303, CNRS) since 2017. After being graduated in Mechanical Engineering of Université de Technologie de Compiègne in 1993, he received his PhD from Institut National Polytechnique de Lorraine (INPL) in 1999. Over last 5 years, he has built up a new research team (Design, Modeling and Optimization in mechanical engineering – COMM) as a new research department of the ICB – UMR CNRS 6303 Laboratory at UTBM. COMM research activity is focused on the original domain of “High Productive design”, “Numerical modeling, simulation, and optimization in thermomechanical systems”, “Lean innovation”, “Advanced engineering methods and tools”, “Design For Additive Manufacturing”, “3D and 4D printing”, etc., applied to Transportation, Energy and Industry 4.0 issues (https://icb-comm.utbm.fr/). As the Head of COMM department, he currently manages 32 researchers, including 15 PhD students. He has also personnally built up, coordinated and operated, from 2006 to 2015, the CoDeKF, HLPWeb2.0, ADN and INGéPROD collaborative projects at national level.
