Mehdi Ghardi

Mehdi Ghardi is a Post-Doctoral Research Officer at Bangor University's School of Computer Science and Engineering. His research focuses on computational modeling of materials, particularly in nuclear glass systems and amorphous solids. Key areas include lithium accommodation in amorphous materials, configurational entropy effects, and first-principles studies of glass scintillators. His work bridges materials science, nuclear engineering, and computational chemistry.

Research interests emphasize structural analysis of glasses and their properties under radiation or densification. Collaborations involve advanced simulation techniques to understand defects, grain boundaries, and boson peak phenomena in silicate and zirconia-based materials.

Publications highlight contributions to understanding lithium in nuclear glasses, radiation-induced defects, and the structural basis of boson peaks. No scientific awards are explicitly listed, though his active research output reflects significant engagement in the field.
