Paradowska completed her master's degree in materials science at Wroclaw University of Technology.[1] She moved to Monash University as a doctoral researcher, where she specialised in mechanical engineering and the development of strategies to study stress in steel welds.[2][3] After earning her doctorate, she joined the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory working on the ENGIN-X beamline.[4]
Research and career
In 2011, Paradowska joined the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation.[5][6] Paradowska develops neutron and synchrotron diffraction for residual stress analysis. She is interested in the welding process and developed the Kowari–Strain Scanner, looking to understand how the structure and stress in materials relate to they manufacturing process.[citation needed]
