Aims & Scope

Aims

Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing (ISSN 2504-4494) aims to publish state of the art knowledge in the fields of processes, equipment, systems, and materials in relation to materials processing and manufacturing. It offers an online platform facilitating effective exchange of innovative scientific and engineering ideas and the dissemination of recent, original, and significant research and developmental findings.

The definition of materials processing refers to the procedure that transforms material characteristics and properties, while manufacturing is defined to be the operation that creates the final shape, form, finish, utilities, functionalities, and performance of parts and components. Novel materials processing methodologies, manufacturing schemes, advanced equipment and tooling design, as well as the thermal, mechanical and chemical behaviors that the material exhibits during, and resulting from, manufacturing processes are the major dedication of the journal.

Scope

The scope of the journal covers, but is not limited to, the following areas:

• Mechanics analysis and predictive modeling of engineering materials involved in the material heating, solidification, deformation, addition, removal, accretion, and other operations in the manufacturing of parts and components
• Establishment of advanced and innovative methodologies for manufacturing operations, including mechanical, thermal, optical, chemical, electrical or other processes
• Research findings on materials processing to transform material properties and characteristics for subsequent manufacturing steps to be performed
• Design of equipment or the development of tooling for materials processing and manufacturing
• Assessment and control of process quality, efficiency, and competitiveness
• Capability enhancement of materials processing and manufacturing through control, measurement, monitoring, and automation

MDPI Publication Ethics Statement

MDPI is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). MDPI takes the responsibility to enforce a rigorous peer-review together with strict ethical policies and standards to ensure to add high quality scientific works to the field of scholarly publication.
