Ageo Meier de Andrade

Ageo Meier de Andrade is a researcher at the Computational Materials Design department of the Max Planck Institute for Sustainable Materials. His work focuses on atomistic simulations in materials modeling, particularly in understanding stress corrosion cracking in nuclear power applications and hydrogen embrittlement in nickel-based alloys.

• Doctor of Philosophy (2021), Chemistry with specialisation in Materials Chemistry, Uppsala University
• Licentiate of Philosophy (2020), Chemistry with specialisation in Materials Chemistry, Uppsala University
• Master’s degree (2016), Applied Chemistry, State University of Ponta Grossa
• Bachelor’s degree (2013), Chemical Technology with emphasis in Environmental Chemistry, State University of Ponta Grossa

His research combines first-principle atomistic modeling and molecular dynamics simulations to study mechanical and chemical degradation mechanisms in alloys. Projects are funded by the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) and the Swedish Research Council.

He joined the Computational Materials Design group at the Max Planck Institute for Sustainable Materials in October 2023.
