Research Scientist in Stress Analysis

About CEAM

Formally established in March 2016, the Centre of Excellence for Advanced Materials (CEAM) is an innovative materials R&D institute supported by recent science and technology initiatives of Guangdong Province, China. With substantial funding secured from the provincial and metropolitan (Dongguan City) governments, the primary objective of CEAM is to design and build a materials engineering diffractometer at the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) which is also located in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, China. In the meantime, in order to promote the use of the neutron diffractometer in materials research and extend the application of large scientific apparatus in materials and manufacturing industry in China, CEAM has also built the necessary integral R&D functions, including Neutron Technology Department, Materials Research and Development Department, Stress Measurement and Analysis Department, and Numerical Modelling and Simulation Department. This is an exciting opportunity to join our professional, young, vibrant and expanding R&D teams.
