Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRaymond Maass is a Sr. Staff Cell Modeling Engineer with a PhD in Chemical Engineering and 13 years of experience specializing in mathematical modeling and numerical simulation of electrochemical systems, particularly lithium-ion batteries. At Tesla since 2017 he has driven cell design, continuum porous-electrode modeling, and lifetime characterization, advancing battery models that tightly couple experiments and simulation. His MIT Bazant Lab PhD produced multi-scale porous electrode models and a novel simplified electron-transfer kinetics expression, and he quantitatively modeled single-particle phase propagation in graphite — work that underpins practical cell optimization today. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he blends deep theoretical insight with hands-on engineering to translate microscopic physics into scalable battery technology improvements.
