Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electron beam technologies are a driving force for technological progress in micro- and nanoelectronics, the development of new advanced materials, the elaboration of new constructions, devices and precision machines, refining of refractory and reactive metals and alloys, metal curing, waste metal recycling, additive building of metal structures, etc. Higher resolution, high energy concentration, the possibility for precise and flexible control and automation, and the vacuum (or atmosphere) environment of the processes determine the implementation of the direct interaction of electron beams with materials in the vast number of industrial applications.
This Special Issue collects papers with the aim to present the state of the art and some of the latest achievements in the field of electron beam process investigation, electron beam process research and development, high-performance alloy, metal, and powder treatment and their material properties, process analyses, application of advanced mathematical methods for modeling and simulation, and integrated and intelligent process control and management. Particularly relevant are papers that investigate and present new technology or application development, implementation of advanced methods or intelligent solutions, present investigations for physical problem technology solutions, and high-performance alloy, metal, and powder presentation after electron beam treatment, as well as the implementation of different approaches for electron beam process modeling and simulation.

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. Metals is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2600 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.
