State-of-the-Art Materials Science and Engineering in Romania 2022

Dear Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to invite you to submit manuscripts to the Special Issue “State-of-the-Art Materials Science and Engineering in Romania”.

The main purpose of this Special Issue is to publish selected, original scientific papers written by Romanian scientists, describing research work carried out on materials using the latest technological advancements. The thematic scope is by no means limited, and we count on interesting and innovative papers contributing to the development of this interdisciplinary area of material scientific and technical research.

Materials present a research challenge in various fields such as biomedical, security and defense, electronics, aerospace and automotive, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, electrical engineering, and natural science.

We welcome original research and reviews focusing on advanced and smart materials, from a macro to nano level, surface modifications, mechanical and thermo-physical properties, characterization techniques, new technological solutions, and process improvements dedicated to progress in materials sciences and engineering.

Let us present research novelties in materials science and increase the visibility of Romanian research potentials in the materials science and engineering field.
