Peiriannydd mecanyddol a gwyddonydd deunyddiau yw Dr Bastola sy'n arbenigo mewn gweithgynhyrchu ychwanegion (AM)/Argraffu 3D. Mae ei ymchwil blaengar yn canolbwyntio ar ddatblygu atebion arloesol ar gyfer roboteg feddal, synwyryddion/cychwynwyr, cynaeafu ynni ac atebion deallus ar gyfer acwsteg a dirgryniadau. Drwy ddatblygu systemau deunyddiau goddefol ac actif amrywiol (y rhai hynny sy'n ymateb i ysgogiadau allanol) megis deunyddiau ymatebol i feysydd magnetig a siâp-cof, mae Dr Bastola'n gweithio at greu atebion arloesol i amryw o heriau amgylcheddol.

Mae Dr Bastola wedi ennill profiad gwerthfawr wrth weithio mewn sefydliadau nodedig, gan gynnwys ei PhD yng Nghanolfan Argraffu 3D Singapore (SC3DP), Prifysgol Dechnolegol Nanyang (Singapore), ymchwil ôl-ddoethurol yn y Sefydliad Polymerau Actif, Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon (Yr Almaen), a'r Ganolfan nodedig ar gyfer Gweithgynhyrchu Ychwanegion (CfAM), Prifysgol Nottingham (y DU). Mae wedi bod yn gweithio ym maes systemau metaddeunyddiau aml-swyddogaeth ac aml-ddefnydd a'u Gweithgynhyrchu Ychwanegion. Mae ei waith ymchwil wedi cael ei gyhoeddi mewn cyfnodolion o fri gan gynnwys Advanced Materials.

Mae diddordeb gan Dr Bastola mewn ymchwil sylfaenol a throsiadol.

EG-M36 Reliability and Maintenance Engineering

The module will provide overview of the systems engineering aspects of monitoring, control, reliability, survivability, integrity and maintenance. Areas of interest to be studied will encompass an engineering application from mechanical, marine and aerospace. The important underlying systems engineering concepts on plan-do-check-act cycle, reliability in relation to quality engineering, design considerations on system survivability, integrity and maintenance will be highlighted and demonstrated with relevant examples. Of particular example will be looked at, including but not limited to, plant operation (hazard analysis, on-condition monitoring, majority voting system and high integrity protective system), marine and aerospace applications such as pump, propulsion subsystem and commercial satellite solar array subsystem (combination of series and parallel systems). Failure Modes and Effects Analysis and Load (stress) - Strength analysis will be introduced and the important links between type of failure, failure rate and safety margin will be quantified.
EGA266 Digital Manufacturing

Within this module students will learn about digital manufacturing, from its role in concept development through to prototype production and small batch manufacture. They will be introduced to the way in which manufacturing is changing and the future possibilities presented by emerging digital manufacturing technologies. They will work individually to fabricate a digital manufacturing machine (3DPrinter), which they will calibrate and produce test parts on, as well as their own design of a 3DPrinted engineering design.
EGH314 Design for Reliability

This course is designed to equip participants with the quality and reliability engineering concepts and skills that will be needed by technically trained engineers within industrial companies to establish highly reliable and cost effective systems. The course will give introduction to the system engineering aspects of monitoring, control, reliability, survivability, integrity and maintenance. Areas of interest to be studied will encompass an engineering application from mechanical, marine and aerospace. The principles of 'Design for Reliability' will be highlighted and demonstrated with relevant examples.
