Yves Couder (1941–2019): A life in search of the beauty of fluid motion
Comptes Rendus. Mécanique, Volume 348 (2020) no. 6-7, pp. 397-400.

In this article, I briefly discuss the remarkable scientific accomplishments of Yves Couder, their impact in the fluid dynamics community worldwide and his unique personality. It is a personal tribute to a friend and a colleague I have known for the past 35 years.
