Levente Vitos

Levente Vitos is a Professor at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm, Sweden. He holds roles as examiner, course coordinator, and teacher for advanced courses such as Quantum Metallurgy, Materials Physics, and Degree Project in Materials and Process Design. His research focuses on computational materials science, with an emphasis on alloy design, magnetocaloric effects, and the thermomechanical properties of advanced materials. Key areas include high-entropy alloys, intermetallic compounds, and functional materials for energy applications.

His work integrates experimental and theoretical methods to study phase transitions, thermal expansion, and electronic structure in materials like Mg-based alloys, TiVNbMo HEAs, and Co-based superalloys. Recent studies explore strategies to optimize mechanical and magnetic properties through doping, stoichiometry control, and defect engineering. Vitos collaborates on projects addressing low-thermal-expansion materials and superconductivity in vanadium alloys.

As an educator, he contributes to KTH's materials engineering curriculum, mentoring students in advanced research methodologies. His publications span over 60 peer-reviewed articles since 2020, with a focus on predicting material behavior through first-principles calculations and machine learning.
