Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to take part in an open-access Special Issue dedicated to the advanced manufacturing of metals, and metal matrix composites
Conventional manufacturing methods are often not able to meet the current industrial requirements in terms of design flexibility, lead time, and materials’ mechanical and functional properties. These challenges can be overcome by additive manufacturing, which is already applied in aviation, aerospace, medicine, construction, and other engineering fields.
This Special Issue intends to highlight the recent challenges and advances related to the breakthrough production of products from metals, and metal matrix composites . The Issue will be dedicated to the applied significance of advanced manufacturing and will focus on processing methods, process optimization, and predicting, characterizing, and calculating the resulting properties of new materials.
A special highlight is dedicated to research on metallic and metal matrix composites obtained by various additive manufacturing techniques, including laser powder-bed fusion, laser metal deposition, binder jetting, wire arc additive manufacturing, electron beam melting, etc. Research papers devoted to the development of feedstock materials as well as alloys and composite materials tailored for additive manufacturing processes will also be addressed.
The covered topics include, but are not limited to:
- Additive manufacturing;
- Nanostructured materials (metals, powders, metal matrix composites );
- Advanced processing of metallic materials;
- Biomaterials and new medical materials, 3D printing of biomaterials;
- Modelling of the process, physical and mechanical properties of materials;
- Digital twins of materials, structures, production technologies;
- Materials with special physical and mechanical properties;
- Processing and characterization of smart materials;
- Design of additively manufactured materials.

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 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.
