Characterization and Mechanical Properties of Alloys

Dear Colleagues,

The Special Issue provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies related to the load-bearing capacity of materials, as influenced by their basic properties, processing methods, microstructure, and operating environment.

The work published in the Special Issue should comprise studies on synthesis and structure combined with investigations of the chemical and physical properties of alloys, contributing to the development of areas of current scientific interests. The following aspects of the science and engineering of metals or alloy materials are of particular interest: (i) advanced experiments and theory as they relate to the understanding of the properties, and (ii) the characterization of the structure and chemistry of materials, specifically as it relates to the understanding of the properties.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
