Advanced Production, Processing and Characterization of Industrial Materials

Dear Colleagues,

The main aim of this Special Issue is to present the state of the research on advanced industrial materials production, modeling, processing, and characterization.

The objects of the research should report the investigation by using very specific models, methods, and/or instruments. The knowledge presented in this Special Issue—as well as methods, technical systems, and their applications—vindicate the strong potential to attract and impress researchers as well as other professionals, and will contribute to the unstoppable process of supplying answers to as yet unanswered questions or formulating new questions themselves.

Contributions should focus primarily on:

• Materials modeling and characterization;
• Advanced materials production and processing;
• Industrial materials quality and reliability;
• Surface properties optimization and characterization;
• Advanced materials testing and inspection;
• Environmental aspects of materials production;
• Advances in the production of metals, plastics, composites, etc.;
• Thermal processing for advanced properties in manufacturing;
• Advances in additive production technologies.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
