Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Traditionally, research on the mechanical behaviour of porous metallic materials has been conducted in the context of very specific problems such as ductile fracture, and in some niche applications such as the study of metal foams, porous membranes for filtration, geophysics, biological materials or the sintering of powder metallurgy materials.
In recent years, the understanding of the densification mechanisms of porous metallic materials has also attracted increasing interest due to the remarkable evolution of some powder-based metal additive manufacturing techniques (such as binder jetting or NNS-HIP among others). This requires an adequate description of these sintering mechanisms at different scales and using different approaches.
The Special Issue, “Constitutive Model for Porous Metallic Materials”, will address advances in materials science, processing, characterisation techniques, modelling and simulation, including multiscale approaches of porous metallic materials. Original papers are solicited on all types of problems linked to the development, evolution and mechanical and physical response of porous metallic materials including the underlying microscale mechanisms, with an emphasis on the development of quantitative approaches to explain and predict experimental observations.

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.
