About
Nanfeng Zhang is a researcher in advanced manufacturing, with a primary focus on gas metal arc welding (GMAW)-based additive deposition processes. His work centers on understanding how process parameters—particularly electrical current stability—influence surface formation and deposition quality in multi-layer, single-pass additive manufacturing. In his most cited study, "Effect of current stability on surface formation of GMAW-based multi-layer single-pass additive deposition" (2021), Zhang systematically investigates the relationship between arc stability and the geometric integrity of deposited layers, offering critical insights for improving the reliability and surface finish of wire-arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) components. This contribution is foundational for researchers and engineers seeking to optimize process control in metal additive manufacturing, where surface quality directly impacts mechanical properties and post-processing requirements. Although his citation count is still growing, Zhang’s work represents a targeted, technically rigorous step toward industrial-scale adoption of GMAW-based additive techniques, positioning him as a promising voice in the field of directed energy deposition.
