Ashish Kumar Srivastava

Prof. Ashish Kumar Srivastava serves as a Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at G.L. Bajaj Institute of Technology and Management, Greater Noida, India, with over 16 years of experience in teaching, research, and administration. Recognized as a Top 2% Scientist globally, his work bridges advanced manufacturing and materials engineering.

His academic foundation includes:

• B.Tech from Institute of Engineering and Technology, VBS Purvanchal University, Jaunpur
• M.Tech from Uttar Pradesh Technical University, Lucknow
• Ph.D. in Materials and Manufacturing from Indian Institute of Technology (ISM), Dhanbad (2018)

Dr. Srivastava specializes in friction stir-based technologies, focusing on additive manufacturing, microstructural characterization, and functional material development. His research drives innovations in metal matrix composites and surface engineering, with strong industry applications in aerospace and automotive sectors. Current projects emphasize process optimization and property enhancement through novel fabrication techniques.

Recent publications (2024-2025) reveal a concentrated focus on metal additive manufacturing, particularly friction stir methods and laser powder bed fusion. These works investigate microstructure-property relationships, defect mitigation, and mechanical behavior of 3D-printed alloys like SS316L, demonstrating interdisciplinary integration of experimental and computational approaches.

Key recognitions include:

• Top 2% Scientist of the world

He has secured significant research funding, completing two government projects and currently leading a Council of Science and Technology (CST) UP grant. His innovation extends to four filed patents with the Government of India. Academically, he mentors 4 Ph.D. scholars, 8 postgraduate projects, and 42 undergraduate projects while serving as guest editor for special issues in Coatings Journal and Materials Journal, plus editorial board member for five international journals. He actively reviews for Elsevier, Springer, and Wiley publications.
