Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Machining of biomedical tissues is a common procedure in the medical field. Efficiency, mechanical stress, and precision are crucial parameters in the machining of tissues, such as bone, because they strongly influence the postoperative results. At present, the machining technique has been improved by the development of new devices to reduce the time and increase the accuracy. In addition, the deformation of material during the machining has been well predicted with computational simulation (e.g., FEM).

This Special Issue aims to explore and share new emerging concepts and technologies in the machining of biomedical tissues. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:

  • Machining of biomedical tissues
  • New concepts of surgical and clinical devices for bone and soft tissue
  • Phenomena during machining
  • Long-term follow-up studies on tissue regeneration
  • Medical image analysis for bio-machining; navigation systems
  • Biomedical applications of robotics
  • Sensor technology
  • Artificial intelligence and machine learning

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.
