Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A recent dynamic progression in many fields of technology drives the development of modern, advanced structural materials with complex mechanical, physical, and chemical properties. Such materials include titanium alloys, nickel alloys, special ceramics, materials with high hardness (up to 70 HRC), chemical and thermal resistance (resistance to wear, oxidation, corrosion), composites, plastics, etc.
Advanced structural materials play a significant role in the manufacturing technology of machine parts, particularly in sectors such as aerospace, automotive, and tooling industries, and the manufacture of casting molds. The practical use of these materials in industry is closely related to the need to develop new and improve existing manufacturing technologies.
Progress in this area is measured mainly by the increase in accuracy and quality of machined surfaces obtained by various types of machining, such as turning, milling, or grinding, and by using hybrid machining processes.
This Special Issue intends to present the latest developments in the machining of advanced structural materials, in particular the CNC machining, the use of modern cutting tools, modeling and computer simulation of machining, and analysis of physical phenomena occurring in the decohesion zone of the machined material.
Please feel free to submit original, high-quality research, short messages, and the latest reviews to this Special Issue.

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.
