About
Thoufeili Taufek is a rising expert in advanced manufacturing, with a focused research portfolio in wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM). His work centers on the critical challenge of thermal distortion in additively manufactured metal components, particularly those built from stainless steel SS316L. Taufek’s major contributions include developing a novel distortion analysis method that integrates thermomechanical computation with an enhanced separation and deposition algorithm, enabling more accurate prediction of deformation in complex geometries like hollow, rectangular thin walls. His 2023 paper on this method has garnered 15 citations, reflecting its immediate relevance to the field. In 2025, he extended this work by comparing thermo-mechanical, inherent strain, and experimental approaches for distortion analysis, earning 12 additional citations. Taufek’s research is notable for bridging numerical simulation and practical validation, offering engineers robust tools to improve dimensional accuracy in WAAM processes. His achievements position him as a key contributor to the future of large-scale metal additive manufacturing, where controlling distortion is essential for industrial adoption.
