JohaGuilleminot is the Paul Ruffin Scarborough Associate Professor of Engineering and an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science at Duke University. He joined Duke on July 1, 2017.

Prior to that, he held a Maître de Conférences position in the Multiscale Modeling and Simulation Laboratory at Université Paris-Est in France.

He earned an MS (2005) and PhD (2008) in Theoretical Mechanics from the University of Lille 1 Science and Technology (France), and received his Habilitation (2014) in Mechanics from Université Paris-Est. Habilitation is the highest academic degree in France.

Dr. Guilleminot’s research focuses on probabilistic methods, computational mechanics and materials science, as well as on topics at the interface between these fields. He is particularly interested in the multiscale analysis of linear/nonlinear heterogeneous materials (including biological and engineered ones), homogenization theory, scientific machine learning, statistical inverse problems and stochastic modeling with applications for computational science and engineering.
