Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Materials is running a Special Issue to collect papers on specific topics related to microstructure and mechanical properties of innovative alloys and composites. The main goal is to build a strong community of authors and readers to discuss the latest research and develop new ideas and research directions.
Special Issues are led by Guest Editors who are experts in the subject and oversee the editorial process for papers. This Special Issue is focused on topics related to oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steels, the most promising materials with the potential to be used at elevated temperature and in severe neutron irradiation environments for the future fusion reactor application. Papers published in the Special Issue will be collected together on a dedicated page of the journal website. For this Special Issue, we sincerely invite you to contribute and share your research articles, reviews, and communications with our colleagues. For any inquiries related to a Special Issue, please contact the Editorial Office.
Dr. Zbigniew Oksiuta
Guest Editor
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.
