High-Performance Applications of Advanced Materials: Material Properties, Behaviour Modeling, Optimal Design and Advanced Processes

Dear Colleagues,

For several decades, advanced materials and their processes have attracted the attention of researchers and industry professionals. The possibility of industrial implementation considering the High-Performance Applications is also determined by the Fracture & Fracture behavior, Mechanical Properties, Modeling & Optimization of the Advanced Processes of Manufacturing, and the Structure-Properties Relationship that strongly affects the life cycle of Advanced Materials. From industry insight, it is important to develop novel prospects and strategies aimed at designing novel materials and processes, in addition to excellent mechanical properties, characterized by specific properties focused on heavy operating conditions. This Special Issue aims to provide an opportunity for researchers from both academia and industry to share their advances pertinent to the Special Issue “High-Performance Applications of Advanced Materials: Material Properties, Behaviour Modeling, Optimal Design and Advanced Processes”, which covers the aspects of all features regarding the High-Performance Applications, from modeling new processes and materials, through experimental investigations focused on structure-properties relationship, to validation considering specific operating conditions. Both fundamental insights and practical foresight are greatly welcome in the form of research articles or reviews addressing topics such as simulation and modeling, experimental investigations focused on fatigue and fracture behavior of advanced materials, optimization and design of novel advanced processes, advanced materials behavior during operation,  advanced characterization of microstructure, artificial intelligence, big data, and cloud computation.

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. Materials 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 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.
