Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue delves into the intricate mechanics analysis and predictive modeling of engineering materials, emphasizing the multifaceted processes such as heating, solidification, deformation, addition, removal, and accretion pivotal in the manufacturing of parts and components. This compilation features cutting-edge research employing advanced experimental techniques like high-speed imaging, in situ microscopy, and diffraction methods such as X-ray and neutron diffraction. Alongside these experimental approaches, sophisticated numerical models, including finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and methods for investigating microstructures and phases, such as electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), are extensively covered.
Additionally, this Special Issue explores the burgeoning realm of data-driven numerical models, leveraging machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence to enhance predictive accuracy and inform data-driven decision-making processes. This integration exemplifies the innovative approaches to optimizing material behavior and manufacturing efficiency. Through this Special Issue, we aim to illuminate the synergy between traditional mechanics and modern computational advancements, providing a comprehensive understanding of the material mechanics underpinning advanced manufacturing technologies.

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. Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing 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 1800 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.
