Associate Professor, U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering
Guikema joined IOE in 2015 and his recent research is grounded in risk analysis, particularly data-driven risk analysis and complex systems simulation. This research focuses on the challenges of urban and infrastructure resilience and sustainability in a changing climate; this includes preparing research models that will predict a storm’s impact on electrical infrastructure.
