-The current modeling landscape for sLoF prediction is fairly sparse; initial work provided simple 2-dimensional estimations of defect volume fraction in the deterministic melt pool case [@tang_lof_2017]. This was extended to 3-dimensional geometry prediction, continuing to utilize the deterministic melt pool assumption [@subraveti_lof_2024]. More recently, uncertainty in the melt pool dimensions to augment sLoF predictions in a Tang-type semi-analytical geometric model has been introduced [@richter_analyticallof_2025]. The current state of the art sLoF model builds on this approach with a Fourier-based expansion of the melt pool dimensions to account for temporal variability [@subraveti_sma_2025;@subraveti_process_2025]. This model solves for explicit melt pool overlaps, yielding sLoF geometries resultant from melt pool fluctuations.
