Marco Mazzarisi

Marco Mazzarisi serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanics, Mathematics and Management at the Polytechnic University of Bari, Italy, specializing in Manufacturing Technology and Systems (ING-IND/16 classification). Based at Via Orabona 4, 70125 Bari, he can be contacted via marco.mazzarisi@poliba.it or the departmental line +39 080 596 3522.

His research centers on laser-based additive manufacturing processes, with primary expertise in Laser Metal Deposition (LMD) and Directed Energy Deposition. Key investigation areas include real-time process monitoring using coaxial infrared systems and off-axis optical techniques, defect detection (particularly subsurface voids), melt pool dynamics analysis, and sustainability assessment through exergetic analysis. His work focuses on nickel-based superalloys (Inconel 718) and stainless steels (AISI 316L), addressing critical challenges in geometric accuracy, energy consumption, and material compatibility in hybrid manufacturing.

Analysis of his 2020-2025 publications reveals consistent innovation in LMD monitoring methodologies. His research demonstrates strong interdisciplinary integration between thermal physics, optical engineering, and sustainable manufacturing principles. Notable contributions include the development of off-axis monitoring frameworks, causal models for void prediction, and exergy-based sustainability metrics that bridge process quality with environmental impact assessment.
