​​​Job Description

ENGIN-X Instrument Scientist

Tung Lik is an instrument scientist responsible for overseeing the operations of the time-of-flight neutron diffractometer, ENGIN-X. Prior to joining the ENGIN-X team in 2016, he completed his PhD at the University of Hull. During his doctoral studies, he extensively utilised advanced synchrotron X-ray and neutron characterisation techniques. Additionally, he developed multi-physics finite element models to optimise the spray forming process for manufacturing dissimilar metallic alloy components.

Tung Lik maintains an active interest in the development of neutron instruments tailored for engineering applications. He holds the primary responsibility for the design and optimisation of the new time-of-flight engineering instrument e-MAP which will offer enhanced capabilities in stress measurement of full-sized engineering components. This initiative will enable engineering manufacturers and emerging technology SMEs to create the next generation of complex machines with improved performance, durability, and capabilities.

Interests and expertise:

Residual stress/strain measurements, neutron & X-ray diffraction and imaging, powder metallurgy, spray forming, thermal spray processes, additive manufacturing 

Current roles:

  • Providing user support and driving developments on the ENGIN-X diffractometer
  • ISIS Science Focus Area Convener in Advanced Manufacturing and Materials
  • ISIS Representative for Facility Access Panel 7
  • ISIS Engineering and Imaging Group Representative to IBEX Science Advisory Group
  • Lead organiser and chair of UK Neutron Imaging and Engineering Meeting
  • Manage beamline staff
