Young stars form within fragmented structures inherited from the gas cloud they emerged from, named star forming regions. Subsequently, dynamical processes play a key role in their evolution. In this thesis, we study the N-body interactions between young stars thanks to numerical simulations, developed with the AMUSE platform. Using the gravity-driven fragmentation (GDF) method, we produce realistic young star clusters, on which we test two tools, the MST and HOP, used to identify over-dense groups of stars. In particular, we evaluate the robustness of the MST method. Such tool is usually applied only on the 2D projected distribution of stars because of observation limitations. We point that such identification under estimates the dynamical...
