Benoit Revil-Baudard is an assistant professor of the materials science and engineering department at the University of Arizona. He joined the MSE department in August 2023. Previously he was a research scientist in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at University of Florida/REEF for 10 years. He holds a MS/BS (Ingénieur Diplômé) from the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Lyon and a PhD from Ecole des Mines de Paris. He has contributed to several areas including computational mechanics and advanced manufacturing of metallic materials and heterogeneous materials. He has developed a research program and research laboratory devoted to the study of the response of heterogeneous materials and multi-materials systems subjected to extreme loadings. While the focus of his research activities is on modeling of materials and structures, he has developed and designed innovative experimental capabilities and provided technology solutions to the defense sector. He has co-authored 2 books, co-edited one book, authored or co-authored over 50 refereed papers.
