Summary
Yuanpeng Zhang is a Neutron Scattering Scientist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory with eight years of research experience applying computational methods to materials structure problems. He holds a PhD in condensed matter physics from Queen Mary University of London and has a strong technical toolkit spanning Fortran, Matlab, Mathematica, C/C++, and Python. Yuanpeng has developed and applied RMC-based total scattering techniques for energy storage and other materials while collaborating between ORNL and NIST, bridging experimental neutron scattering with advanced modeling. He is exploring the intersection of machine learning and symmetry-mode analysis to accelerate structural insight, reflecting a rare blend of hands-on scattering expertise and computational innovation. Based in Knoxville, he combines deep domain knowledge with practical software skills to translate complex data into interpretable structural models.
