Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue on the "rolling process of metallic materials" in Metals will focus on recent advances in the science and technology related to rolling forming of alloys and steels. The topics will cover the whole field of metal rolling, from the development of new rolling processes and equipment, to macro-forming quality and microstructure performance, to final application and, increasingly, the issues of sustainability and end of life.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. This Special Issue will cover all aspects of material analysis, forming process, deformation characteristics and microstructure evolution, including:
- Innovative rolling process and equipment;
- Skew rolling technologies for metals;
- Cold/warm/hot rolling technologies for metals;
- Cross wedge rolling and ring rolling technology;
- The relationship between forming process and microstructure properties of various metallic materials;
- Combination of other forming processes and rolling processes;
- Numerical simulation and experiments of skew rolling processes;
- Microstructural/mechanical characterization techniques of metals;
- Fatigue properties of metals.

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. Metals is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2000 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.
