About
Bishal Silwal is a researcher advancing the field of metal additive manufacturing and welding process optimization, with a focus on improving efficiency, quality, and scalability. His key research areas include wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM), vibration-assisted welding, and the integration of non-destructive evaluation techniques into production workflows. Silwal’s most cited work, “An experimental investigation of the effectiveness of Ar-CO2 shielding gas mixture for the wire arc additive process” (2020, 21 citations), provides critical insights into shielding gas optimization for WAAM, directly impacting the mechanical properties and cost-effectiveness of additively manufactured metallic parts. He also contributed to “Vibration Assisted Robotic Hot-Wire Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) for Additive Manufacturing of Large Metallic Parts” (2016, 6 citations), exploring novel methods to enhance deposition quality and process stability. More recently, his work on “Implementing Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing and Lean Principles Towards Efficiency and Quality Improvement in Manufacturing Welding Processes” (2025) bridges the gap between advanced inspection technologies and lean manufacturing, demonstrating a commitment to practical, industry-relevant solutions. Silwal’s research is particularly valuable for students and engineers seeking to understand how process parameters, automation, and quality control converge in modern welding-based manufacturing.
